Can't go wrong with the omp wheels. Well made and have a good range of sizes and dishes.

The sabelt wheels are nice but I've always thought they're overpriced. You'll need a boss either Omp or momo make them around £80. Some resistors for the airbag connectors either 3.3 or 3.9 ohms, can't remember which. The horn button will need the spring taken out as it short the horn out or...

Unless you're keeping it oe the best way to improve the steering no end is a smaller after market wheel. The RS's of this generation have coach wheels on them. I put an Omp trecento uno on mine, 300mm. Drove like a go kart, it was epic fun. Miss my old Cup but had to go slightly practical...

I remember this livery the most.

Man digs big hole... ?

Have you tried a WiFi booster. We've got a belkin one and works a treat. Our hub is downstairs but we've just had a loft conversion and it wasnt getting that far up. Plugged the booster in on what is now the middle floor and get a decent signal now. It's rated upto 300mb which fine for most...

Any one else think @GrahamS looks a bit like Jesse Eisenberg?... ?

Yeah, cant remember who though. It was his brothers VW van sale or something along those lines. Either way, be vigilant and once the cash is in your hands keep it safe.

Once the cash is counted and all documentation sorted don't let it out of your sight. Read a story on this forum of someone being done out of a few hundred quid as the foreigners mate that was with him swiped some cash back while the seller was distracted doing the paper work. Best have...

Take the V6, go on or the r5. PS, package on the way?

Seen a clean cup in the same place a few times now. Has a personal plate on it too if it's the same one, *** CUP I think.

Just drive, maintain and enjoy. Did think about an r26r spoiler but like the subtle look now.

Thanks mate. There's loads of alerts I don't get or miss too. Your LY is looking super sexy too.

I'd sway to the meg just for the commuting. But I've not driven either. Maybe that's the answer, book some test drives.

@Ricardos @RMDavis could offer some feedback re the edc.

Only taken nearly a year to respond... ? ?

Was that the Queen Square hengrove meet? Was going to take the meg but kids got ill so didn't get down. Was busy apparently.

Speak to @JoePeps about BMW dealers....

Buys a five door Focus ST by the weekend... ?

Oh yeah interiors are typically French, squeaky and rattly but as mentioned they drive so well.

Mine makes a nice low burble with a decat and induction kit. Mines mapped so probably accounts for the lower mpg.

You'd be hard pressed to get 40mpg out of them! My 225 averages 26.3 mixed driving. The best I got out of it was driving like a granny when I drove back from picking it up in Sheffield. That was 36mpg, cruise control set to 56-60mph? Tbh honest whatever @imprezaworks wants now will have...

He was after an R26 two minutes ago so economy is low down on the list ?

Cleaned, polished. Dressed all the black plastics and wheels. Hoovered and dusted the interior. She's being shown off at a local meet tomorrow. Can't show up looking dirty and unloved now. ??

Yep still had to explain the economics to the wife.. We car people know its a bargain, wife thinks it's just money that can't be spent on house stuff... ?

Cheers. Couldn't agree more?

Thanks mate. Had to wait a while to justify them to the bank manager.. ? I agreed once the old tyres were knackered I'd source some alloys with tyres and kill two birds n all that. Paid £250 with four month old tyres on, ps3 and rainsport 3's. Bargain. Refurbed them myself over the course of...

Best £12 you'll spend and you'll get it back with the starter pack, let alone any deals in the for sale section. Hell I don't even own a clio anymore (most in here dont:-)..) but still renew every year. So much more than just a car forum.

Latest change is finally getting some r26 alloys on the car and losing the marmite wheels. Been Refurbed and fitted with some shiny new wheel bolts. Love how looks now.

Lovely. Bit of a tech jump 182 to a focus ST... Keeping black shiny is hard work...
