For the record on Saturday i had 4 people in the back of my car and had NO rubbing. In fact i think i could of gone another 50mm no probs if i didnt have an exhaust!!

Yeah the problem with the R5 is that you cant find low milers anymore. However theres the balance of experience of the engine whereas a 1.2 is a bit of an unknown quantity.
Anyway, it would be nice to see some really modified 1.2s considering theyre such popular cars.

Well if it didnt look cool you wouldnt of mentioned it! As you say if its a company van i guess the whole point is to get noticed as its a moving advertisement board..stick a flyer on it!

I think Freds planning something bigger and better but he has the advantage of f**k off student loans!
I basically want to equal a 182s power to weight..

Davids not sure on costs but hes certain it will be cheap (relatively), initially it will be pretty basic, intercooling wont even be included but hes aiming for 1.6 16v. Theyre planning to buy a 1.216v as a project car...we have lots to look forward to believe me!
No question im getting it!

110bhp + which is a basic coversion according to David.
Ill push k-tec to work on the bottom end more, new pistons, intercooling, headwork, exhaust system etc and aim for 150bhp though.

Happened to me at multistorey carparks as i was on full lock going up levels, i solved the problem by stopping visits to multistorey carparks! Mine was like yours, it did it turning right but never when turning left..bit weird..

Its not cheap, add fitting and setting up (£100) then id completely understand someone backing away but just believe me when i say its worth it! Im only 18 and look like im driving a little Cup racer, the looks i get and smiles from driving it are much better than i would of ever expected! :D
They were 586 including vat (non adjustable). Highsport sounds familiar but id have to check..
Not sure if theyre higher at the back standard but the front arches have more room than the rears which is why i lowered the front less so it had a bigger gap compared to the rear.
