no, not induction kit, just £35 panel filter to help it breathe - tuuuuunes got one for our Xsara HDi 140 too - awesome Q car - needs a 6th gear cos rips past 120 in 5th well past 4K power peak!

Re: Those tossers who drive like nutters down the motorway firewall won't allow me to see :-(

^ wow - quick mine's GPS'd at 9.3, 21 secs to 90, 50-70 in 7.4 noticed the difference running on empty, but 50L is approx 50kg, so 5%! P.S: have you got a K&N panel filter? so much better was wheezy before @ 3800, will pull strongly to about 4800 now!

I'm on Apex 2 and no worries after 45K on original shocks agree harsh, but 40mm drop looks perfect :-)

Nankangs actually have a decent write ups! try www.blackcircles.co.uk or www.mytyres.co.uk ^ ^ I got tyres off net and paid a local fitter a tenner each fit & balance - save 100 on a set of 4

2500?

40mm lower with 172 wheels would look mint!

oh bugger! can you do the same for 'different boxes in shop windows in Amsterdam?

will try 'em - ta! 130! 'kin 'ell - what's performance like?

GPS times? don't remember seeing them - what are they? Still planning on a GT dCi, but prices still too high (£15800 new, £15K second-hand) AND standard car ain't that much quicker at legal speeds and not having a lot of luck with definite re-map figures. plenty will say 'yes', but...

^ ha ha - a tenner says you'd be a shade quicker than me, but not that quick!

I've defo seen it on this site before!

if engine was sound beforehand, defo fix it! buying second hand can be very very risky - lots of shite out there

a few hundred quid will sort it - as said 'bent valves' but prob. not all 16! :-)

Hiya, saw ya at 8ish this mornin on A43 towards Northampton I was on my daily grind in the opposite direction :-(

^ ^ I's say better than 90% of folks - you ONLY notice the flash gits, you never notice the majority of young people on the bus/walking/cycling to college/work without enough for a sandwich in their pocket!

p.s. if you MUST, as said, sensible spec. upgrades like dynamique alloys and fogs are best way to spend but still add little to value of car over 5 years!

nice one - tidy looking motor! a feck of a lot better than my first TWO cars - a pale blue 2cv with 200K on the clock :-O - Cavalier with shot suspension and a slipping clutch (but it did have heated electric mirrors!) woohoo P.S; don't muck about with it - save ALL your cash in...

got be a re-mapped 80 mate just driven a new shape 106 dCi and it felt SLOOOOOOOOOW (extra 150kg+ and much less torque in standard trim)

interesting! personally the best white wheels are WRC stylee http://www.tirerack.com/images/wheels/oz/swap/oz_supertour_wrc_w_ci3_l.jpg

from seeing one a day: 197 on a '56' with fit blonde bird peering over steering wheel to 4 [S888 ARM] - Gordin Blue 182 Cup 2 x Black 182 FF: [KTO4 WZA], [VUO5 SVA]

^ ^ ha ha ha agree with what's been said - a VW 1.8T would be a better bet BUT however mint the car is, a seriously modded mark 1 would have a very very limited resale and would need so many bits to bring it up-to-spec.......... ........ I'd be tempted not to be tempted! keep it...

^ DO YOU SHOUT A LOT NOW?

let's just stop this nonsense and accept that a Corsa 12v "Twin Port" is just so much quicker than anything we have ever driven, but ONLY if it has 600kg of ICE, 18" alloys and a VXTuning sticker!

^ ^ good reply, what did it sound like ?

^ ^ you are joking? they 'might indicate' those kinds of speeds with wobbly needles, but 1.2 more like 105mph, Rsi 115mph best sorry mate :-(

^ ^ QED - can't argue with that!

^ ^ where on earth did you get that from?? NEVER heard of any 'expensive' probs with dci's on forum mine's a peach at 54K

mmmmmmmmmmm

^ ^ let us know if you find anyone mate, I'm local with a car in need!
