    Finally. I bought an ///M3.

    lol. Although i do know what you mean - think you need a CSL for it to feel really special on the inside!! Now booked in for rear subframe check on Thursday at Cooper Thames Ditton ...

    I want another Clio. Am I mad?

    lol. It is the only one with ITB's, a straight six, manual gearbox, 5 seats & a boot though iirc ;)

    Finally. I bought an ///M3.

    That was probably your VAGdar sensing another understeer monster :p Was gonna come in the M3, but realised how far Essex was & made Ollie drive the derv bus. Sarah wasnt attending so couldnt charge her half you see ...

    Finally. I bought an ///M3.

    A TT? I was in Ollie's 306 lol ... you must have confused me with some other mincer ;) lol, only cos of the rank air filter, which was clearly bunged on there when they took off the teikwando thingy ... Yours needs lows, camber/alignment mod & some black jap wheels then it'll be rite.

    Finally. I bought an ///M3.

    It is, too busy driving it to care about what it looks like tbh. Which brings me onto the 1st proper write up now that i've driven it fairly 'enthusiastically', albeit in the damp, & well it really is great: Took it for a couple of runs down one of my favourite road's yesterday, which in the...

    I want another Clio. Am I mad?

    Buy an M3, then you'll release how much fun proper power, & RWD can be. Have absolutely no desire to drive the Trophy at the moment, hence why its being put back to standard & stuck in the barn for future use.

    Essex Karting meet - Sunday 30th October @ 12pm

    I'm just gutted i didnt get to put a decent lap in in qualifying due to 3 cr4p karts. If i hadnt started in 13th you might have had a bit more competition ;)

    Essex Karting meet - Sunday 30th October @ 12pm

    Perhaps thats why the 1.2 driver won the race? - he's more used to the lack of powerz

    Essex Karting meet - Sunday 30th October @ 12pm

    Ha ha, quite possibly, although the booster cushion probably lower my power to weight ratio ;) Leaning forwards was ace, except when it got wet - no weight over rear wheels = big sideways when flat through the fast corner. Sitting back up upright acted like an air brake approaching the hairpin...

    Essex Karting meet - Sunday 30th October @ 12pm

    I just leaned over the steering wheel on the straight. More aerodynamic = considerably more speed lol. Helped overcome my weight problem.

    Hi from Basingstoke!

    Cup Turini's are 195/45/16 Trophy ones are 205/45/16 Personally i prefer the slightly lower grip threshold of the 195's, they break away more gradually on the limit. Nice looking car btw. Basingstoke is the best place to live ;)

    New JAP Bus

    Did you find it at the bottom of a river lol?! If it had full history, why didnt they clean the air filter? Unless they did it with mud/rust of course ... Great gearchange on these.

    Essex Karting meet - Sunday 30th October @ 12pm

    Thanks for organising Vicky!! As Ollie said, our weary old bones needed a rest afterwards, hence our absense from the pub. Also, apologies again to whoever it was i moaned at the end for punting me off after lapping them in the last 5 mins or so...

    Finally. I bought an ///M3.

    Quick fitment of parts at lunchtime ... Pikey air-mod: basically a 45 degree drainage joint to pull air from the bumper scoop straight up into the airbox feed. (Buying a fog light shortly, priorities, etc) Old air filter: only replaced 2k ago apparently. Lies. New BMC filter: purchased for...

    Looks epic. I give it 3 days before someone puts one on the bonnet of a Clio to 'feed the bodies' yo.
