I love my car as well :D It's always really satifying to give your motor a good thrashin especially when its something capable and rewarding.
My valver probably isn't as fast or as capable as a 17poo but by christ it's rewarding and soooo much fun :rasp: Gotta love lifting off on...
2nd all the time ;)
Makes it more interesting after lifting off, keep the back end out a little longer with less opposite lock and then bring it back in line with the loud pedal:rasp:
I can do the theory ok, but the practical aint my strongest point :o lol!
If I was in your position I'd go for the williams 3, thats just personal preference. For that money you can get a really clean williams 1, 2 or 3
As for ph1 172, good car but no more or less reliable than a mk, they're all french heaps of sh1t that will go wrong at some point, you just get on...
The RSI's have relly nice sideskirts that the valver's don't although I've rectified that problem on mine ;) (thanks diamondgeezer!)
Not 100% sure but I think valvers have a wider front and rear track than the RSI as well
as above m8
1. Brakes all at same time, even if it stretches ur budget a bit, it will be money well spent
2. coilovers
3. Exhaust & de-cat
Make it drive and stop how you want it to 1st, then worry about cosmetics. Thats what I've done on my valver, goes for full respray in a week :cool:
I...
As above mate, they charge £35 to do all the alignment, it will only cost more if there's anything broken, they're 2 mins drive away from lady bay bridge ;)
There's a place on Little Tennis Street that are the best round these ways for wheel alignment,
http://www.alignment-services.co.uk/contact_us_about_Four_wheel_alignment.asp
its the only place I'll ever take my car to get the alignment done ;)
No probs matey, also worth getting yourself a copy of the drivers survival handbook, it covers a lot of other stuff regarding traffic laws and how to deal with police at the roadside.
It costs £20 but its worth double that price imho ;)
Saved me and 1 of my m8's gettin points
should have it now m8
What's been sent to you in the post, is it a notice of intended prosecution or a court summons?
Page 20 makes very interesting reading ;)
PM me your email and I'll send the pdf I've got
Its useful info, might give you an idea of what to expect or even help you decide to challenge the ticket
What got you, was it a good old fashioned "real" policeman in an actual patrol car or the cash machine on wheels?
Might be better off lookin on clio16valver.co.uk or williamsclio.co.uk
More mk1 stuff for sale on there, try askin matbrown or winston they're always breakin valvers
I've got a copy of magistrates guidelines and if u got to court you're lookin at 6 points or disqualification for up to 54 days.
You should get offered a fixed penalty of 3 points and £60 as you werent 30mph over the limit, thats when you get a court summons
