Aircraft landing gear uses oil and nitrogen, no springs involved. Although some smaller stuff, puddle jumpers, rotary and older stuff use a spring in the process.

Guys, not a sport I know, but ...... The step daughters 1.2 02 Reg Clio is a non runner, the garage have told her the ECU is dead. Now, on a previous car, I sorted this myself with a second hand ECU and lock/key combo kit from a breakers. Question is this, can I buy a similar kit of parts ie...

Re: CLIO IV RS for 2013, Last news I love it. Cup chassis option will sharpen it up for the enthusiasts and the interior looks like a very nice place to be. I like the DSG style box, others may not, but having driven the Golf GTi DSG, I'm sold, it's brilliant, the same concept is used in this...

Lucky you have a buyer!

Would be different if he'd mowed you son/daughter/friend down whilst driving like that. He should be banned for life with a very hefty prison sentence, he won't be though, where's the justice in that?

A little update ...... The Clio had the steering issue addressed under warranty, now drives superb, it really does feel a different car. I've done about 1000 miles since the fix and coupled with the service at Birchdown, it feels mechanically 100%. Dodgy window seal replaced, interior cleaned...

Probably the prettiest car ever made! Lovely.

Looks like someones bought it, showing as sold!

Looks like a mercy killing to me, it was slowly getting chav'd up!

My book defo says 6 years, maybe it's because it's an 08 plate? Never mind, it will be done at its next service as I've just had the aux belt and pulley done, it was whining!

On the motorway from Blackburn to Chorley, whatever that road is, about 3pm, I was in the White 197.

Get a standard chassis version with recaros and speedlines, then paint the calipers and wheels, best of both worlds. The Cup pack is a little tiresome on rubbish roads, but feels superb everywhere else.

I thought belts are six years or 72k on the 197, according to my service book they are anyway. Worth getting them checked at service of course!
