    Copart - 197 track/rally car

    That’s weird. Why would it go with all the kit in it?! Stuff like fire extinguishers, spare etc

    MK2 Clio front led side light bulbs.

    I use OSRAM LEDriving ones. Only got the one set and they’ve been in the car forever. Great for interior bulbs too. I’ve tried all kinds and the OSRAM ones are definitely the best IMO.

    f**king hell that was a deal and a half!

    The Power PC Thread [f*ck off consoles]

    Yeah, I thought it might be something along those lines. Time to break it... Question though. 8Gb of 2133mHz RAM, or 16Gb of 1600mHz RAM?

    The Power PC Thread [f*ck off consoles]

    Been gifted a HP pc with no sound apparently. Has a 4790 (non K), 16gb RAM, GTX 1060 3GB. 250gb SSD. I’m not sure what to do really. The processor and card are not really upgrades (OC’ed i5 4690K and 780ti respectively) for my PC. If I got it working what would people reckon it’s worth?

    Impulse buy of 2020

    The dayglo bits need to GTFO but looks great. A mate had a hatch and it was a great car to live with.

    Hello From Turkey

    The Power PC Thread [f*ck off consoles]

    I’ve got the PC but no oculus, lol. Really want one though, VR is perfect for driving with a wheel, more so than anything else because you’re locked into a seat. VR flying though....

    What do people spend on their cars ?

    Mine gets serviced, new tyres every 9 months and that’s about it on the maintenance side. It just doesn’t break. It makes up for that in fuel though.

    How many people have you surprised with your clio?

    Why does that Aston NOT have a thread.

    How many people have you surprised with your clio?

    I did genuinely have someone ask me when I'd F4R'ed my 1.2 after a spirited CS meet drive.

    Newbie from Torbay

    Sorry I meant the 172, although I probably have seen the Escort too! I’m pretty sure it used to be owned by someone in Devonport Naval Base. Has it got a big exhaust on it?

    Newbie from Torbay

    Welcome to CS! Cossie looks awesome. Actually that plate looks familiar.... I went the other way, started with Clios and then went on to Volvos, lol.

    What’s the best way to remove my engine from 182

    Demonstrated on a Golf here but works for most cars.

    MarkCup's BMW M140i

    Interesting that the Kumhos seem to talk more. TBH I'm so used to the PS4s I'd just take the extra wet grip but it's nice to know there's other options. Also how dare you go doing mad skidz on the public road.

    Yeah, on something like a laptop, or at least laptop screen size, there’s no point. But 4k is awesome on a bigger screen.

    ## WARNING ## @ BLOKE

    In my previous post I was going to put ‘Customer takes forever to pay for things then suddenly wants car back tomorrow’ but I thought it’d be a bit too controversial. Shoulda left it in. Still curious as to what the plan was with the battery tray but hardly the end of the world.

    ## WARNING ## @ BLOKE

    The Lifecycle Of a Car Specialist. Step 1: The Home Gamer You have a performance car and are savvy enough with your tools to do most jobs on your driveway. You’ve got a few mates with the same car but they aren’t quite as confident with doing big jobs like cambelts etc, so you offer to do it...

    Can I make my ph2 1.2 16v clio more fun?

    Great point. Autosolo the s**t out of it. Get a mate and go 12 car rallying. Neither really requires power but both are hella fun.

    Can I make my ph2 1.2 16v clio more fun?

    If you’re going to spend anything, and trust me, that’s a mistake anyway, get some decent tyres and a cone filter so it makes silly grunty noises. Then just concentrate on going flat out everywhere. Carrying speed in a low HP car teaches you a lot about driving fast.* *don’t crash

    Mk2 megs look awesome caked like that.

    Micro SD cars fucked - will not format

    It's not mega uncommon to have a micro SD card failure tbh.

    The Power PC Thread [f*ck off consoles]

    Tbf I’m still using an i5 4690K. The only thing it really struggles with is FSX and that’s purely single core. Gaming is allll GPU these days. There are a few exceptions, GTAV for example.

    Exclusive 172 - 172 Cup, Future Classic?

    Ph1s will do well, but the problem with the Exclusive is that it’s the least performance oriented variant of a famous-for-its-performance hot hatch. Yes it’s rare but if anything that means that they’ve been cared for more and have been lost at a slower rate than all the others. I think as Ph1...

    All electric Mustang Mach E

    It’s just early adopter tax tbh. If you want to be one of the first EV owners then you have to pay for it. Bit like Apple tax, if you want to be the first to have a feature then you need to spend half as much on an android. Wait, f**k. Never mind. c**t tax. It’s c**t tax.

    All electric Mustang Mach E

    Tbh all it really shows to me is something that should come as no surprise. Car companies don’t give a flying f**k about their enthusiasts as they’re vastly outnumbered by the dullards. Dullards who will love telling everyone they drive a Mustang, in the same way that everyone who has an...

    Winter 2019 Dirty Car Thread (maybe competition)

    It’s my favourite thread of the year. Probably won’t get as filthy this year though, although mine is pretty minging. MX5 is booked on a rally test in january though....

    New 271bhp Hyundai i30

    I’d imagine they’re much like the retrofit LED bulbs, great spread but crap punch compared to halogen.
