as has already been mentioned, buy a good quality starter and make sure the factory heatshield is fitted and there shouldn't be an issue.

The AC system oil will generally have a green die in it so you can leak check it using a UV light so you might find thats what it is, but it generally just runs it shouldn't be dripping much.
Check the lower rad hose is on tight as the clamp down there can corrode and snap off and the pipe can...
AC condenser is in front of the radiator, if a stone punctures it then you will get a hiss. You should see marks on the front of the condenser where the oil thats added to the system is staining the condenser as it runs down. if there is still a bit of pressure in the system then you will see...
I had the KTR Centre line on mine, it wasn't cheap but Imo it was perfect, this was with a silenced decat, and it was borderline too quiet which is perfect for me! And because it has its own mounting system it always sat perfectly!
£8.6K, Thought it would have gone for more actually! some of them are fetching daft money now. My mate has a 1.2 that was driven into his garage at 3yrs old and 20k, stripped to a shell and has never moved since, he offered it as a rolling shell for £1000 2 years ago and couldn't shift it! Were...
my 182 Van runs AD08RS and really impressed with them for fast road, when they are hot they have BAGS more grip than the PS3 I'm used to on 172/182, I've never tried them on track yet to see how they stand up to the abuse but I believe plenty use them so should be all good!
in that second pic the part thats bending out should stay attached to the door and the cap should come off revealing the door lock to open the door in the event of a flat battery.

I was 1.5hrs on the phone to them today, what a f**king shambles of a company it went something like this....
Logged in to see my deal has ended and I'm now up to full price, the TV box hasn't even been plugged in for 6 months so decided to try and find out if I can go internet only without...
You sure its oil and not just dirty moisture creeping past those coil pack seals? - seen it on 197's
A while since i had one off but sure the inlet manifold has a rubber seal on it and that mating surface should be clean and free from any sealer, clean it up and replace the rubber seal and it...
There was some people on here a few years ago who found out that the brembo front calipers that were used on the Peugeot 406 coupe / mk1 Ford Focus RS and Fiat Coupe bolt straight onto the hub of the non RS clio - They then used a certain combination of disc and i think some spacers that worked...
i take it that its a fairly tidy example given the standard exhaust and AC working lol, seems a shame to modify it just as they are starting to pick up value for good standard ones?!
That sounds exactly as mine have always done when standard, with an RSTuner map with the slightly raised idle it disappears (the same as turning the AC on is doing for you). Also the best mod you can do to them imo, not only for that reason!
HOWEVER, I CANNOT believe that has a factory exhaust...
