    Would you spend £18,200 on a Clio 182?

    I think the 182 could work, although not necessarily to the demographic of people that have owned them before. Car magazines still bang on about 1*2’s being the ‘last of the real hot hatches’, so I’d imagine the target market being people who’ve read that statement over and over again, but...

    Would you spend £18,200 on a Clio 182?

    There’s certainly a demand for resto-mod’s, and with the correct marketing it could work - it’s a comparative bargain when put against other cars of the same nature. I can’t imagine it’s something your average CS’r would entertain, but as a second or third toy for someone... From your IG Rob...

    Forza Horizon 4

    Tip, in advanced settings adjust your deadzones to 0 inside and 100 outside. I’ve only had a quick blast on this and found the controller was fairly numb, especially steering, this improved things massively.

    Cub's Flamer - Supercharged, Cage etc

    End of an era Oli! Still can’t believe you got it in 2011. It really is the best Clio on here imo, I remember hammering it around Llandow pre-supercharger days! Someone will be getting one hell of a toy! Need a catch up soon mate, hope all is good.

    Cliosport Surrey Rolling Road Day

    I’ll come along for a catch up and beer afterwards. Probably won’t run anything though, unless you all want to see how little power either and MX5 or MCS has??

    Goodwood Festival of Speed 2018 - July 12th-15th

    Picked up two tickets for Sunday on a whim yesterday. Something I say I’m going to go to every year but I’ve never been. Looking forward to it, especially seeing the new Singer in the flesh/metal.

    The "Ive taken a pic and I kinda like it" thread

    Been a long time since I’ve posted here! Only just started going through my pics from Bali. Really not impressed with the lack of keepers from my X100S, but here’s a couple so far.

    Probably going to stick my Fuji X100S up on eBay this week, give me a shout if you’re interested! Good camera, I’ve not touched it since I got back from my honeymoon so it’s going.

    Glad your enjoying it mate. Having being used to DSLR’s, the novelty of what if refer to as ‘terminator mode’ when you look few the OVF hasn’t worn off yet. I’d highly recommend buying a soft release shutter for it btw mate. Only a couple of quid off amazon. Still not really been out with it...

    They look great Matt, really impressive. I’m a bit apprehensive about just using the fixed focal length (when I was in Dubai I was under 20mm a lot), but also really looking forward to be being forced to use what I’ve got. I’ve been out of the photography game for a while, need to download...

    Only briefly dude. Really, really impressed. The way it handles high ISO is mental, and the manual focus assist modes are awesome. I do find it a little soft at f2 when in ‘macro’ but by bumping it past f3.5 it helps. Super sharp otherwise though. Lots of complaints online re:AF speed...

    Lovely looking bit of kit. Feels less sturdy in the hands than an SLR as an initial impression, just waiting for the battery to charge now!

    Great memories in that motor! Only sold it to buy my Trophy. @welshname owned it after me too, then went to the scrapyard in the sky.

    @Dr Jekyll I picked it up under £400 from MPB mate, sold my 10-20 on there and hear nothing but good things. They look excellent mate. Went for the S above the normal X100 due to the improved focussing and larger sensor. Can’t wait now. Have a look at some reviews on YouTube mate, they seem...

    So I’m off on my honeymoon in a couple of weeks and fancied a change from lugging around the SLR and changing lenses. On a whim, I’ve just bought a preowned Fujifilm X100S! Really looking forward to trying it out. The image quality looks incredible.

    Photo Booths - Talk to Me

    We got messed around by the chaps that were going to do ours (2x VW campers for transport, one doubled up into a photo booth) last minute so made my own in the end. I say photo booth, it was a few bits of wood and frame knocked together but went well with the rustic theme in the end, lol. Saved...

    If any of you guys are interested I’m sticking up my Sigma 10-20 f4-5.6 on eBay tonight. Nikon fit. Will come boxed and with a 10 stop ND filter, and I’ll chuck in some Grad filters too. PM me if you’re insterested!

    Ps3’s‘Not As Good As The Hype?’

    I hated the RS3’s when I first put them on the mx5, turn in felt off and the whole car felt nervous. Gave it a week and they were spot on once scrubbed in.
