A pond?

?‍♂️ @Panda.

I think powder light blue against silver looks mint

Mint, Vauxhall's are w**k but dat engine

Options....

All about striking when the irons hot matey, wheels were 200 and 80 quid refurb. Tyres 100 and 20 quid fit them

@OssPoop go to a proper track like Cadwell.... Much safer literally no-one rolls there

Only one route for track setup on a clio imo.... Supers and Slicks

Standard wheel works okay tbh, no reason to stop a trackday anyway. Ran my daily on track with it

@OssPoop soft lad, send it ;)

Welcome, looks a decent little base to work from. Enjoy the cheap repairs and chuckability on track.

BMW sparkling graphite grey ah thank you so much ;)

@Matt e Yoo hoo! That more than likely be me avoiding the m1 on way to Welwyn

If I was aiming for hillclimb etc I definitely wouldn't be looking at trendline, they just about cope for one trackday ish a year. The above sportsters are a much better seat.... but do cost a few quid and normally need a repair to be mint

As mentioned briefly in the first post i made chap its changed back and forth a lot over the years! - Vibratec engine mounts which annoyed me at traffic lights and idling with the vibration - back to stock - Coilovers which i found pound for pound not really viable - onto cup shocks and H&R...

sounds like the steering angle sensor is fubar

oh and I've swapped stereo out for a an alpine with parrot for hands free phone and ipod connector on it too. plus added and upgraded speakers and popped a small under seat sub in.

@frayz its all personal preference at the end of the day, there is no right or wrong answer. But my experience has seen me go too far (i have a dedicated track car anyway for the vibrationy goodness if i feel the need) and as such reign it back in again for just a usable, easily and cheaply...

disagree, trendlines i find for my body shape provide loads more lumbar and lateral support over standard seats. i have just come back from a weekend in Scotland too, 700 miles total in 10 hours of driving.....fresh as a daisy at the end of it.

yeah nowt to worry about imo, if they have pronounced cracking between the tread (so not caused by contact) then worry

yeah i paid naff all for loads, got piles of them kicking about

My daily is a 182 FF and after 7 years its about perfect for my use as just a road car (its done one trackday under my ownership and was still very capable). I've gone too far with it a couple of times and ended up going back to more standard spec to make it better for just cranking the daily...

The outer mounting hole for the ball joint is further forward, not central in the wishbone. Very obvious

Picked up another sabelt wheel for this car too ages ago, decided to pop it on this evening, also changed to satin side strips. Minor update but just tinkering at the mo with her. Cheers Ben

What he said above

Had my snappy on my daily 5 years now, no UV degradation. It's just shined up from use lol

Can't really test compression without knowing timing is good as bad timing leads to poor compression, hence low power

If it smells vaguely hot burning oily its likely to be a leak from the vvt solenoid seal which can work it's way onto exhaust manifold area

Timing out for sure

Hideous, surely you've got enough wedge now to sell the lot and buy something actually good ;)
