A stage 42 Astra VXR is quicker in a straight line than a standard 182. But if you remap your 182 the Astra will implode before the lights change........

Gonna be good this!

I like it in an odd way!

Huge difference in handling with some knowhow guys. This X pack has an LSD which helps on its own but with poly bushes and a rear axle locating kit, effectively a tie bar, and of course the Bilsteins fitted as part of the X pack the handling is actually very good now....... not scary at all...

Amazing car! Best colour and body style too!

Hey Colin this is your Dad here, thank God you didn't take a happy snap of my Y's on the clothes line yesterday or that might have ended up on here too!! BTW I meant to say Kelly Brock before...most pleasing to the eye! Alan

Here's the TR6.. Such a cool little car

Hi Joe Colin's dad here! I think £12K to £15K would be a steal, I would not let this go for less than £19K and even then you would have to tie me up and have Kelly Brook ravage me many times and ............. even then I would say no (to sell that is) !!!! Alan

Hes had it a couple of years at least mossy.. He had a 3.1 oselli engined Capri before it, Also a Triumph TR6 in the garage which I really do like!

This is Dads toy, its a 1981 X plate, 3.0S capri, with original dealer fitted X pack RS parts, including; Big valve heads, Triple 42DCNF carbs, electric fuel pump, anti dive kit, Granada front brakes, Limited slip diff, All round Bilstein shockers. Wheels were 7.5x13 deep dish RS 4 spokes, but...

That's a great car history... Would have to be the GTR for me personally!

Ollie v scutch was thread of the decade lol

I don't mind the golf tbh :o It's a little bit "scene" for my liking but it's pretty smart, that 200 looks to have the rare anthracite pack??

That is so epic! Also I wish I could take a car like that and just drive that well on a track !!

Ditch the wheels as they look crap, other than that it's a very good looking car! I remember the topic about Rob fitting the dash etc, Some 16" F1's would make that car perfection

That's an epic unit!

Most people are over it, and thoroughly enjoying their Fiesta ST's lol That PS actually looks pretty good to me!

Top effort!! My loft is dark and boring lol :(

I toyed with having anthracite wheels on the mars red (similar) Vee, but silver wheels just look so clean and fresh!

Amazing, best colour for a 172 by far. Silver wheels personally for me though

The white 5 looks epic mossy! You really do love your low cars don't you :)

Good to hear, as my alternative was K-Tecs uprated brake discs set up and some form of manifolds.

So if you could save the money and keep standard height would you do it? I'm almost all saved now!! Damping adjustment should be a small knob that goes on each strut top and turns.. Is this what you meant? Unless KW have a different set up?

Yours is the hight I want though! Handling wise for how often I drive the clio I wouldn't spend £1500 to improve, it doesn't justify for under 1000 miles per year. Should be a 5 minute job to soften it up a bit though, just buy turning them a few clicks?? Dont put me off this idea guys lol

See I'm worried about this, I ideally want a little lower but not making it over speed bumps etc is a complete hassle!!

Looks great! How are you finding the KW's?

I like the wheels! Car still looks gash though! This one is the turd that can't be polished. Followed a basic 06 plate albi blue 197 the other day, standard and it looked amazing! It's a 7 year old car FFS!

The 182 looks fantastic there, 200T looks genuinely like a Leon.

Monaco looks stunning! how close to the kerb through!!!!!

Nope, still just can't get on with these at all :( same with the 208gti, saw one yesterday and they are dreadful. Fiesta ST every single time in this class!
