    Amazon in Pixels - Broadband required

    The guy who created the original site i'm sure did well because he got lots of media attention and it was picked up in the context of what students need to do these days to pay their way through uni. The size can be varied. It can be changed to multiple of 10s. Apparently with the original...

    Amazon in Pixels - Broadband required

    A student who came up with the idea has made over $500,000 in a couple of months selling Pixel adverts. As a result there are over 500 copycat sites now, this one included. Rather than having blank space the site has products from Amazon split into 20x20 blocks. The whole page is generated...

    Amazon in Pixels - Broadband required

    Having knocked up one of those pixels sites a few weeks back (basing it on the Million Dollar Home Page) I thought I would try something a bit different and populate the space with Amazon pixels. Here is the link http://www.milliondollarrssfeed.com Let me know what you think. There is a...

    Imported Clios - Second Hand Car Prices

    It looks like "imports" go for the same as UK once they reach a certain age. Spoke to a guy at Renault UK customer services today and he said it wouldnt bother him if he was buying an import as long it was an EU one with same warranty.

    Imported Clios - Second Hand Car Prices

    Has anyone noticed a difference in price they got for their Clio when they came to sell it via trade or private? E.g. did the dealer / individual offer you less money because it wasnt sourced from a UK dealer? If price was different what were the reasons given? Thanks

    172 mk2 - to de-cat or not de-cat...

    My MK1 has two lambda sensors and I decated that a couple of years ago. Bought a devil decat at the time and welded in another boss for the second lambda. Only thing is that the lambda sensor light comes on after a while because the downstream sensor detects a different O2 reading to what it...

    Quickest + Most Powerful Clio’s...

    There was one of these for sale a couple of years ago in the Midlands. Cant remember exact figure - was under £15,000. As it is a cosworth lump 280 bhp is easy to extract with minor mods and with the four wheel drive system traction shouldnt be a problem.

    found a 172. some advise please.

    Another option you might want to look at is buying a MK1 172. I have seen these in the high 6s for early ones. You then have the option of a few mods. shocks, springs, strut brace, steel brake hoses, induction, exhaust, decat, chip and you will have a Clio that will keep up and handle as well...
