    low oil pressure

    So would you be conserned running 10w40 delphi semi-synthetic fresh serviced about 1 month ago should hit the max oil pressure mark when you turn the key, it takes a few minutes to drop to half way!

    low oil pressure

    Sorry to interupt but this has me thinking what is the correct oil pressure for a valver? Mine shoots up to the limit over 6 bar when you turn the key but after 5 minutes of steady driving it goes to under 3 bar and about 2.5 bar at idle. Mine also has very noisey tappets when cold start. But...

    leather re trim for cup, need ideas

    Why not get the 172 exclusive interior its full grey leather. would definatly be different, there are only 172 cliosports with full leather and it would be even more unique fitted in a cup

    VTR to mark 1 172

    My old 1.4rt would be an equal match for saxo vtrs. The valver is in a different league and well my 172 just wouldnt bother breaking sweat to despatch one. The saxo isnt a bad car its just the cliosport is a whole lot better. I would say if you were swapping from the 16v vts then you wouldnt be...

    Bought 172 Exclusive, big decision!

    Not that much slower than the cup anyway i drove a friends cup and i would say there is nothing in it now i had the viper fitted. You would have ro get them on the track to exploit any real differences. The ph1 was a bit lighter than the ph2 so the cups weight advantage will be less aswell...

    Silly b**ch just reversed into me

    This seems to be a regular thing, i genuinly think older people (sorry to generalise) think the bumpers are there to bounce off. A while back the same thing happened to me, an old man this time. We were parked in PCworld Carpark eating our recently aquired Mcdonalds in the G/Fs Golf Cabriolet...

    I hate my clio

    Forgive me for stating the obvious but whats wrong with the good old angle grinder and a new set of bolts. If you are decating i would have thought you would have a new set of bolts, gaskets & putty at the ready. It takes five secods to get through a rusty bolt with the angle grinder.
