Also if you want performance just get it mapped for more boost. There is a stage 1 map for like £500 or something that will get you to 440bhp with to “hardware” mods. You get a touch more with a performance exhaust. Look up dervtech tuning on facebook Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

And focus RS and your fiesta st for that matter have excellent manual gearboxes. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

I came out a fiesta st with a stage 1 remap. 225bhp and just spun its wheels up in anything like a damp road. Bought my M140i a few months ago and it’s much better with traction. Like others have said a great daily as well. My wife would kill me if I got another 3 door car. Nice to know...

Is this standard or with mods? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

It’s a selling point for some. Nice to be understated Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Excellent purchase mate. I bought an auto M140i shadow edition. Best car I’ve owned by a long way. Very very fast but understated and comfortable for day to day driving. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Had this happen with my mini. My brother was driving about at about 60 on a single track road in the Scottish highlands when It happened. God knows how he saved it. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

So good news and good news. I couldn’t really be bothered advertising the car properly. But through Facebook I sold on the Recaro Trendlines. Then this week my brother said he was looking for a new car as he no longer has a work van with his job. I’ve offered him the Clio. He has insured it...

Spent the weekend in London with a good mate and today got chatting about cars. I think I’ve decided on selling the Clio. Interested in your thoughts on how to sell and thought values. I’ll put a proper for sale add together but if anyone is interested in the car give me a shout. I can either...

Picked up the M140 yesterday. What a car. I’ll have to be careful driving this thing. Looks really mean in black as well. Chuffed to bits with it. I’ve done 150 miles and it needs a clean. I’ll get some more photos up when I’ve given it a good wash. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

So during summer the first Wednesday night of every month. Only the final date is a weekend session due to poor light in the evenings. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Yes Forrestburn. I’m a member at monklands SCC for the last year so I’ll get you across track nights next year. They are £30 for a membership and £30 for a track night. It’s a good way to get into it without going to a full competitive entry in the Scottish hillclimb and sprints. Sent...

One picture from the hillclimb practice. My first time and I was a bit nervous. It was also very slippy with heaven rain showers and some dry spells. There is very little run off if you make a mistake so I took it easy for the first few runs. After 6 or so runs I have a problem selecting...

Update on a number of fronts. Number 1: big change at my lockup / unit. I have a ramp. What a difference this makes to working on the cars. Cost £400 second hand and split between the 3 of us it was a no brainier. From this. To this. Went up tonight and changed a track rod and rack...

Ah man. Thats s**t. I’ve had a number of things over the years where I only have myself to blame and for some reason it makes it worse. To cheer you up here was my lowest moment. Balljoint went. Probably my fault since the steering was a bit stiff but I just left it. Sent from my iPhone...

Spotted a basic model ford Sierra mk1 in the work car part yesterday. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

I have no idea. Pressure washer seemed to lift some of it but any suggestions welcome. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Me too now. Note the oil stain on the drive was the Clio not the mini. [emoji849] Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Good stuff. I have a seat Ateca for the family car. Pretty much the same jnside as the Leon. Apple car play is a very good feature. Fixed cost no hassle is good. Especially if you have some cars that do require some love you always have one working. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

After getting home last night I realised the Clio was leaking oil all over my drive. Raging. I suspected the drivers side seal needed changed so ordered one a while ago. Replaced it tonight and there is still a gearbox leak. And not just a small one. Really can’t be arsed with these kind of...

No idea sorry. Bought them like this. They need repainted to be honest so wouldn’t mind finding out myself [emoji23] Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Went a wee run out to Troon tonight for a local meet. Got a chance to take some photos and also the bonus of getting my airbag light programmed out after swapping to the trendlines. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

I got back what I paid for it. £7500. Its a decent car and I like the late ones with the check door cards and prefer the green interior. Logical choice for most would have been to sell a mini and keep it but I’ve had minis for 12 years now and they are getting harder and harder to part with...

Love it. I’ve wanted one since they launch the RHD version. They are doing some excellent deals just now on the 2014 model. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

That’s right. Moved into this house about 4 years ago. Loving it. Integrated garage isn’t up to much except for storing nice cars but I rent a unit walking distance from the house. I just bought them from demon tweaks. I know some have managed to get them from rimstock cheaper but they were...

205 picked up today and on its way to Chelmsford in Essex.

I went through this pain a few weeks back. You can get them from Germany through eBay. That’s the only way. Renault don’t supply this part any more. https://rover.ebay.com/rover/0/0/0?mpre=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.ebay.co.uk%2Fulk%2Fitm%2F323154800139 £55 including postage. Took 3 days to arrive...
