In my opinion I would buy a AFFF (Aqueous Film Forming Foam) extinguisher. They can be used off and on, suitable for oil and electrical fires and more importantly have a cooling affect on the base of a fire, dry powder does not, just smothers the flame. Foam will find all the little nuks and...
Darlington is about 400 miles north, I work in plymouth so down there most of the time.
Any road is fun in a v6 ;) but yes that one is good, there is a point were the road drops into a dip on a right hand bend and then up to a left on the top of a hill, if your going fast its the dogs b****cks.
Yer good piont forgot about that, hated cleaning the OZ's to many bloody spokes.:mad: seemed to take as long to do the wheels as the car its self. sould be a 5 min job now.:)
Hey cheers for the coments, seems like people either like them or dont. Must say seeing other v6's with these wheels i said no not for me but seeing them on my own car has changed my opinion and i am loving them.
Well, they do need a paint because of some scuffs and chips. Not sure if black might look good but i think that the air scoops would need colour coding aswell to look right in my opinion, maybe someone could photoshop it to see what it would look like. :)
Got some wheels off ebay. Did not really like the look of these wheels on other v6's prefer the standard ones but now i've fitted them to my car i think that they suit the black car better than other colours. Any way here is some pics.

£20 and upwards. Might as well get it done at the cheapest place. Look in yellow pages in you area mate, better than messing around looking on the internet. Ring one or two and get a price.
Got my run around renault 5 done the other week and it was £20.
For the rear drum brakes to operate properly on the handbrake, the shoes need to be frist adjusted so they have as little gap as possible between the friction surface and the drums surface. Once this is done then the handbrake cable can be adjusted, usually with a small nut near the handbrake...
My mother has leased a 56 plate 1.5 dci old shape clio, she was alot more happy with leasing, the only thing is that you dont own a car at the end of you term. But you dont get residuals. And when her lease finnishes she can get a brand new car on lease again.;)
She wanted my 182 when i sold...
