Hopefully they figure that out, or I might just let them know, theyre saying no fault codes are coming up though. Tell me about it! Live and learn really. Whole new head refurb with new camshaft, valves and refurbed guides is what ive been told is being done!

I do about 150 miles in my DCI 100, and usually takes about 2 of the electronic bars. If thats a DCi 80, it seems feasible!

Still no Car back yet, will be Tuesday at the earliest :( Popped in to the garage to see how it was doing and dropped off a few beers to the guys working on the car as a good will gesture. Head was on and car was running, which was a good sign! They were saying it had no throttle the day...

Ph2 DCI 100 Best - 80mpg Worst - Slow, huge turning circle.

Theres a BG 182 across the road from me right now. Some 40-50 year old woman drives it as her daily.

When I heard I'd be working for ford in a few weeks I thought I'd end up with a new ST in a year or so. After this thread, I'm pretty sure I'm going to end up with a capri at some point.

So, No car back as of yet. Was told this afternoon, but when I called them, they said they were in the final stages of getting it all back on the car. Have been told tomorrow if all goes well, if not tuesday. Bit annoying, as all this arrived today! ​As soon as its back, will be giving it my...

Other than the vibrating, are you happy with the new sub Jesus? Beat your old one? Might be picking one up soon and would be good to hear a review!

I don't have Origin on my PC because I'm lazy, Does anyone know which ones do/ don't come with the steam key? Edit: Just seen the icons under the game thumbnails.

Ha, I've been led to believe the colour of my car was pearl black, but I think it might be metallic.

Just ordered a bottle of C2v3 too. Never detailed before, so seeing the results should be interesting. In terms of a first application, is it still best to dilute it for PB? Or will neat be fine?

Lol! Nice one, will be interesting to see which directions we both go for. I'm in bristol on weekends usually! Lots of work needs doing before I start showing it off at meets haha. Just ordered: Dodo juice - Born to be Mild AF Tripple C2v3 Drying towel and wash mitt. First time...

Very very nice mate!

It's not surprising more and more people are going for these. With a Remap they come out with more torque than a 172. Right little fun cars, easy enough to mod and improve, and £30 a year to tax. Just can't wait to get it back and get on with it.

best part of the car by far. Had over 75mpg on a careful run, looking for higher once the engine refurb is done, plus maybe a remap in future, hopefully looking about 80mpg on long runs? and nice and quiet on the motorways, no drone like my 1.4.

Give or take £200, yep. The money is borrowed from family, so the way I see it, it doesn't make a whole lot of difference If I carry on with the rebuild, or scrap it and start again. Going to give them a call tomorrow about the possibility of dropping a new engine in.

Honestly, If I knew this much was to come of it before it started, then I would have straight away. Seems it, there's a bit of a better explanation in my project thread. Just taking it as something to learn from.

Ah, yes. forgot to mention that.

So I had a cambelt failure, and s**t hit the fan as it does. You'll have to forgive me in terms of technically language, i'm just repeating whats been told to me. Was getting pretty desperate to have a car back, and got it in to the closest place to me and seems to have good reviews from family...

Okay, first update of some variety, despite there not being a lot to update (especially seeing as I do not have the car at the moment). Had some carbon wrap to play around with, did the usual, will get around to front and rear diamonds with it too. LED number plate light, just as a small bit...

I've always seen them as over the top, but all phones are heading in that direction. they never appealed to me before because I had a Asus tablet. That's gone, so I think something like the note/ one max might be next! I just prefer htcs build quality to Samsung.

HTC One max is due to land in September at some point, if phablets are your kind of thing! I guess that's what i'll be upgrading to.

The fact that I don't have it, and that its currently sat in a garage with the head off getting a full refurb, clean, and re-skim. As well as finding out how many valves are bent etc. £££.

172 second guess.

674

Hahahaha I turned up in a 100 dci this month! (but kept it hidden and kept up with noone) Will try and get along to this one, depends which end of the M4 I'm on :)

I think I remember someone putting a dci on Cooksport springs. Don't quote me on that though.

I had the exact car for my first car last year, and the best advice I was told on my thread was "Leave it, everytime you go to buy a mod, save it for a new car or a holiday" and it properly destroyed my soul. In the end I ended up following that advice and by now could have a 182 if it weren't...

Exactly what I needed! So far my basket on cleanyourcar.com is the following: BTBM, AF Tripple C2v3 Meguiars high gloss tyre gel Saved that for now, will take a look around for drying towels and wash mitts too.

Might not mind spending a bit more in future, providing I progress! So far I have a small wash mitt and a drying towel, I'll need a few more those. Any recommendations for washing products too? Have already seen lots of good results with C2v3, so that's definitely on the shopping list.
