Well the top 3 in Britain that cars fail on i believe are suspension,catalytic convertor and steering! Yes all the 3 things you can check if your not a mechanic haha
Am pretty sure ive seen that ive got a mate that stays in merchant city, i have to be honest the only reason i drive up there is to look at my car side on in the shop windows lol
Thats like saying i got 13mpg from my hummer "once"
Its not exactly a Golf TDI when it comes to consumption, i know what your saying, whilst 40mpg is no doubt achievable its not exactly an average for it!
I average between 31-36 with all kinds of driving! The VTS Used to get 36-40 average
Really? I was quite dissapointed with it to be honest i expected it to burst away all guns blazing but this wasnt apparent when i was still beside him until 4th gear.
I think he was rather suprised/dissapointed aswell tbh!
Fancy putting up a step by step for removing the side rubbing strips i gather from your dedication your a bit of a clean freak aswell? lol
I put Monica from friends to shame i tells ya lol
That was like Jermemy Clarkston when they bought the old porshces and tried to make money from them after being ragged, he took the engine out of an old 928 i beleive and made it a coffee table, it looked the b****cks
I just got my cam belt and tensioners done along with a service (oil,petrolair filters) He aso used top oil and Bosch Sparks!
This came in at £550 for the lot and he had the car a day!
Shame your not from up here or i could put you in touch with him!
Sorry mate but id f**king do him in, thers two things a man doesnt f**k with.
Ones his woman and the others his car, f**k with either and its game time!
Well i stayed in Crookston with the old dears up until 3 weeks ago then i spread my wings and bought a gaff in penilee:)
Where is it your from yourself?
:rasp:
Says hes 19 at the top of the page never mind tho was never good at maths.
Anyways mate f it were me id just take the plunge screw the insurance
You said the cons of the 182 uses more petrol and your recommending a mk1 V6 and an S2000???
Call me cynical but with the V6 you can kiss anychance of 30mpg+ good-bye and with the s2000 wont be much better, to get the best from any VTEC unit you have to shoe it hard and lets face it, high revs...
Are you skipping the age of 20? lol
Or do all the Isle of Wighter's go from 19 to 21 lol
Why the 16" wheels? Whats wrong with the ones you have on at the moment?
Yeah like a 75% - 25% split of power distribution>?
I know porsche have a great traction system it works really well for the launch control and the like
My bro just got a milltek for his Fiesta ST along with the viper induc kit and according to some estimates it should be rolling between 150-178bhp
Hes getting cosworth cams that should take it anpther 13bhp.
We are going to AVI rolling road next week!
Sorry i assumed we were talking aout the new model of S3 (265bhp)
Well if its the old model (pre 2004) then i would think the clio would maybe stand a chance, even at that though im sure the S3's were quattro drive?
