    Rs200 vs ??

    You keep saying this which is odd seeing as you are completely 100% wrong. Did you read this or experience it first hand yourself? If you read it, what you read is wrong. If you experienced it either the ST you drove was broken or you don't know how to fully disable it. I owned a Mk3 Clio 200...

    The New Phone Thread

    It is...you can see the 'OK google' at the top edge...which means I've answered my own question.

    New bus - Cayman S

    That's so nice. If I didn't need occasional rear seat use I'd be drawn toward one of these instead of a 997 C2. Will probably never happen, at least not for a good while anyway, and Ford have thrown a right spanner in the works with the new FRS. Grr. Never looked at the interior on...

    The New Phone Thread

    Let us know how you get on with the M360. Being able to "OK google" without having to dig my phone out from my pocket has appealed for a while now. You can do that on the 360?

    G3 Clay mitt! Amazing (Few Photos)

    Only used twice a year by me...once in the spring (just finished) and once before winter sets in. That's more than enough. The rest of the time it simply gets a blow over with the pressure washer and if it's lucky occasionaly a 2BM wash with a normal soft mitt.

    G3 Clay mitt! Amazing (Few Photos)

    I have one of these, I've just finished giving the car a panel by panel workout over the last few weeks/washes (I only do one panel with each full body wash as I give it a full on polish/seal/wax after and time is always a limiting factor for me). I wash it first with the G3 body prep shampoo...

    MarkCup's Fiesta ST

    It'd be at risk of treading on the toes of the new Focus RS. Having said that, seeing as all the opposition are priced circa £3-5k more than the Fiesta, there's certainly scope to turn it into an animal.

    MarkCup's Fiesta ST

    Of course it is! I'll have to re-read it but I recall the only upside the 208 had over the ST was the LSD, hence them saying if the test inviolved a track element to it the 208 would have won the day. Regardless, it's punching well after the opposition have had two years to come up with a...

    Matthew's VW Tiguan

    Door sill lights are deemed a 'trim' item and therefore only covered for twelve months. But...I've just been called back by the dealer and they've said they will order a replacement unit and do it for me for nothing, again, as a goodwill gesture! RESULT! Since I bought the car I've given them...

    Matthew's VW Tiguan

    Nope. Not heard of a single case of that happening at all so far. Rear-view mirror sorted? Funnily enough I was called 10 minutes ago by my dealer saying they'll sort the door seal as a goodwill gesture but unsurprisingly, not the passenger sill light. Grrrr.

    When to shift, shift light?

    Ah, roger. I didn't see them flashing.

    When to shift, shift light?

    Does anyone do one that works more like they do in F1? Where half the strip of lights come on one by one then the second half illuminate together? That's how I'd want one, seeing half come on at once in your peripheral vision is a lot easier I'd imagine than trying to gauge if the last...

    First track day coming up!

    I love Llandow. Not high speed but very technical. The only thing I'll add is that you should focus on being smooth first then the pace will naturally follow. Your car will thank you for it.

    MarkCup's Fiesta ST

    Maybe I should have put spoiler tags around the Evo thing, it's not in the shops yet, I read it in my subscriber copy. I had circa 18k from my first set and the second still have 2mm remaining at 38k. Will get some more before Goodwood but for me, the standard fit Bridgestone RE050s, last/wear...

    MarkCup's Fiesta ST

    12.5 k intervals. As for the fan...I can't say I've ever been aware mine's been running, at all. You need to get that checked out...is your temp gauge still staying on four bars?

    I use these Colin; http://www.halfords.com/motoring-travel/cleaning-body-repair/interior-cleaning-vacuums/armor-all-car-dashboard-wipes-matt-finish-x-30 I too am paranoid about using something that leaves any element of gloss but these, with a light wipe with a dry microfibre afterwards to...

    MarkCup's Fiesta ST

    Here's a few minor updates from me; Two years passed on 1st June and I've just breached 37,750 miles in it. Costs etc are as they always have been so I can't be arsed with charts as they're nigh on identical to the last ones. It had its third and last free service by the dealer today. They...

    The Apple Watch Thread

    Surely there'll be a buoyant market for mint secondhand examples soon enough. "Never worn outside of my abode" etc.

    When to shift, shift light?

    In mine I had the R-Sport ECU so 7,850 limiter. I used to shift around 7k and only ever really used the extra revs if I could save a down-shift before turn-in.

    You're using your phones as walkie talkies? Good luck with that when you get pulled over!

    Breaking cover......*AG content from page 45*

    Confronted with the innards of the gearbox or by that tangled mess of wires I'd run and hide. You sir have awesome skills. Coming along nicely!

    M135i - Estoril Blue Loveliness

    This is the exact same argument I'm having with myself right now. Head says MR230 the ST and be done with it for another 60k miles. Head and heart say FRS.

    Walkie Talkies

    So from that PMR446 is specifically included in the legislation?

    Walkie Talkies

    I always thought that two way radios, as Ron said above, were very specifically excluded from the mobile device while driving thing. Is that not because various professionals have to use them when performing duties? Police? Taxis? Ambulance?

    So I bought a 172 cup.

    Nice, I like that, makes me miss my old one. Sniff.

    My Clio RS200T EDC

    Love the front end, love the car. That spec but with black paint was my original choice before I visited Ford and went all common. Nice.
