@lemonnobby - the daddy master at s**t like this!

Such a good looking car. But you’re still a lunatic.

Are you laughing at me or with me?? Can’t just be me that thinks a £200 wheel refurb has let down a £5/6k refresh??

I mean the condition of them.

All that effort and then puts s**t wheels on it...?!

I remember that! mad soon as I went past the Mazda I Pulled over expecting him to carry on past me but he sort of lingered on my left and I had to take a stupid line through the chicane. Watching him though makes for interesting viewing. The 200 is clearly leaps and bounds ahead of my van. He...

Taking the engine out was a bit drastic wasn’t it?? Welcome to the club. 👍

My poor poor van 😭

I find AD08R’s sidewalls too stiff for the road. Makes the ride really harsh. But I’m old.

Can you not?? Don’t suppose there’s much Mass-market demand for 15’s nowadays.

Oooh, Uniroyals….. I've just bought 'four' uniroyal rainsport 5's for the Kangoo. I did a trackday in said Kangoo with my new Rainsport 5's and the day went well. Upon finishing the track day, I noticed that one of the tyres is actually a Uniroyal Rainsport 3..... *SPASTIC TYRE FITTER ALERT*...

Without meaning to sound rude, What is it you are actually asking us...??

Nothing will offer that level of economy and performance for £2k. I hate VAG cars, I think they’re absolute s**t, but I flipping LOVED my Fabia VRS. Economy, power, comfort. Just brilliant little cars full stop.

The problem with a metallic colour, the paint job needs to be flawless or it will look like s**t. White hides all sorts of sins. And given that this (full! Inside and out!) respray is costing me £845, it won’t be flawless! Lol

50mpg?! That’s awesome!

I’m aiming for it to look something like this... (It clearly won’t look as nice as this but something similar will do!)

A dreadful choice of car for your needs, no question. But heroic nonetheless. I absolutely love Them I think they’re Beautiful.

Dropped off at the bodyshop this morning, complete repaint in Ford Frozen White and I should have it back in 3 weeks. (He only works part time) Then when it’s back, I will be sending it somewhere to get finished and pay whatever it costs. Fed up of looking at it and I just want to drive it...

So you lost it...?!

Didnt you win a free Remap as well...?!

Welcome to the club. And a great purchase! Very hard to find a nice one nowadays. Most people with nice ones aren’t selling them!

They’re not strong enough, whenever I put semi-slicks in there they bend under the pressure on the tyre machine. And the don’t allow enough heat out of the brakes. They’ve currently got Rainsport 5’s on them and they’ll be staying in for daily driving. But some decent wheels and semi slicks will...

I did sell it. And regretted it the second it drove off the drive. So I bought it back... 😂

You’re talking about NS2R’s. good tyres! NS2’s are a proper budget road tyre, nothing like the R’s (that i highly

You certainly can’t do it on NS2’s! Absolutely shocking tyre.

There were 5 or 6 of them there, and at least 3 of them were a f**king pain in the ass and wouldn't move out of the way. Same with a Silver Boxster and a bloke in a Big Jag XJ Race car. Seemingly a fat bloke in a van irritated them... lol

Had an Absolute Riot at Oulton Park on Tuesday. What a Circuit!!! Van caused a bit of a stir again as per usual, must have had 10 people come over and talk to me about it. Given my lack of social ability that isn't pleasant but I tried my best... Coilovers and some Better wheels are on the...

No idea! Lol

Yes. Using a different coolant is fine I’m sure, but I’d only do it if I’d flushed out every last bit of the OE stuff first. Or, save the hassle and just stick to Type D as it makes life much simpler.
