Gets in the way of brake ducting if you remove the fog lights and route it that way, but I'd imagine you'd know where it was if you were doing this!

I felt a bit like that when mine first got fitted, not Longlife though. I like the noise at idle and when it's being driven hard, but stop/start driving doesn't sound good in my opinion. My solution was to cut out as much town driving as possible and drive it hard at every opportunity.

Could go quicker - the petrol light isn't on ;)

I would say that £100 per wheel isn't unreasonable, then you've got to decide how much you want for the emotional stress...

Too small as in the steering will become too direct and subtle inputs will be difficult? I can't quite get my head round this, I would have thought the smaller the better as long as the effort in turning the wheel isn't increased to the point where it becomes difficult?

Opinions please guys - was thinking of changing my steering wheel to a 300mm one, I've been advised that this may be too small in everyday use. Anyone care to comment or got an opinion?

Now I'm even more confused!

http://www.autotrader.co.uk/EDITORIAL/CARS/news/37667.html Looks like it! But I was thinking they were all, erm... yellow?

From space!

And this looks better than I thought it would!

My first time getting white right too - been trying for a while. Must be easier with silver. All I did was cut out the body and made it a seperate layer. Image/adjustments/desaturate. Then Image/adjustments/Hue-Saturation and simply brought the lightness up until it looked white.

Sorry mate, went too far with the skirts.

Got a bigger picture? edit: Nevermind!

For the looks alone I'd pay the £20k asking! http://www.pistonheads.com/SALES/747154.htm

I know this has been covered many times in the past and I've been searching on this for a while and still not found a definitive answer! Edde's post the most helpful, yet still I'm a little clueless: http://www.cliosport.net/forum/showthread.php?t=108813&highlight=resistor I've got buckets and...

Mine does something similar, had it in the air last week to see if I could find the problem. Looks like mine in the lead from the lambda sensor hitting the heatshield. Haven't done anything about it yet, but it's worth checking.

Spot on. And will increase your mpg to boot.

We use (hired in) Merc Sprinters at work that specifically state by the filler "Not for Bio-diesel" - they run fine! Mind you, whether they will in 10 years is another matter.

What percent mix? We use 5% mix bio in our work vehicles - all run without problems. This includes vehicles that were previously run on the regular stuff from 02 plate Iveco's, to 08 plate Vauxhalls. Never had a vehicle related issue.

I weighed my 182 cup when it was standard and full of fuel with the optional recaros - it came in at 1100kg.

My Orbisoud (with cat) will pop and bang just after starting it up, until it's off that dodgy low emission map. Nothing when it's on the normal map though :(

Just remember that extremely lightweight wheels will be far more prone to damage from potholes and the like - you can go too light, especially in this county with it's well maintained road network!

Bass can come from an exhaust, and you can save a few more kg's too ;)

Think you'll be lucky to find lightweight disks and calipers, I really don't have a clue if the likes of AP or Brembo kit offers any weight loss. At a guess I'd say no, purely on the basis that most aftermarket brake kits are physically larger than the stock items. Your best best at reducing...

Think of each wheel as a flywheel, now read this: http://www.uucmotorwerks.com/flywheel/how_a_lightweight_flywheel_works.htm

Check your tyre pressures - if they're a long way from 33psi front and 30psi rear it could be the cause.

Needs tidying...
