How many miles have you put on the car? If the tyres were close when you bought the car, you really should have insisted then and there that they be replaced or knock a little more off the asking price. It is your responsiblility to see that there is adequate tread depth. If you were pulled...
Ive never had a fire extinguisher in my car and my my Willy has none of the bite required. Its not like they stop you and look for the stuff. It is required by law though.
I forgot about the bits for blanking over the headlamps. Some headlamps have an adjustable reflector thing for right or...

You should also carry your insurance green card in the car.
Not half as bad as the night time ones though...Ill bet they are really bright just the same.
And if you dont like them, Im sure you could bolt in a set of regular ones.
I wouldnt change up that way even in a race. What you gain is miniscule compared to what you stand to lose in the old wear and tear. You can be plenty fast changing up normally.
And if anyone wants mine, they can bring cash with them on the European trip, get a free lesson on the Nurburgring, and drive it home...
How does €5000 sound?
So who has the worst personal BHP/bodyweight in kg ratio?
I figure that excluding the weight of the car, I have 1.47 horsepower per kilogramme to move me around.
It would be interesting to know if there were any invisible body modifications to stiffen the shell. Thicker gauge steel, seam welding, more spot welds, or additional bracing for instance.
Many homologation specials have a lot of extra bits that you never see and are often not even...
Those going on the European trip will have a chance to see what the score is when they get out onto the Nurburgring. I predict some surprised Clio drivers of every description...
And everybody will get a chance sort out a few top speed questions on the autobahn to and from.
Should be a...

It is only illegal if you conceal the fact. If you are changing a defective clock, the honest thing to do is to spin the new one up to the mileage of the clock you are replacing. Barring that, it should be recorded in the logbook somewhere. If you conceal the fact at the time of sale you are...

The photograph taken in my Willy at 220km/hr 6500rpm is very focused and not blurred although the bit outside is a bit overexposed and blurry.
If speed had anything to do with blurring the dials, fighter pilots or indeed airline pilots would find it impossible to fly. The only indication of...

Am I the heaviest at 104kg? About 16st 5lb or about 228lb.?
Im a bit of an athlete so Im not completely blobby...
I sure dont help the old power to weight ratio in my Willy though!
Cupsize,
The homologation of the 206 is hardly anything like the way cars had to be homologated in the past for Group A which the WRC rules have replaced at the top level. The WRC cars have only superficial resemblence to any street version, particularly the Citroen, Peugeot, Skoda and Ford...
Rob, last time I checked, the Group N requirement was for 5000 examples to be built for homologation purposes. Same for Group A except that evolutions were allowed to be built in batches of 500. This is the reason that there are so many Scoobys and Evos on the road.
The S1600 Kit cars do...
