    Went For A Drive. Dartmoor Content.

    So, today I found myself facing the following questions: Have you recently fitted stuff to the car? Is the weather good? Are you as bored as a bored thing? Is the camera charged? Answering yes to all of the above (Dual Optics and 172 spoiler, hottest day of the year so far, VERY bored, and...

    Anyone any good at Visual Basic 6?

    I've got an app here which runs on VB6, but windows 8 seems to break it as every time I move it, the window shrinks but the display inside it doesn't. Would anyone be willing to have a root around and get it to work for me? Cheers!

    FAO Ph.1 Owners with Dual Optics and HID's Fitted - Important.

    IF YOU ARE USING DUAL OPTICS WITH HIDs, YOU MAY BE BLINDING OTHER ROAD USERS. Dual Optics, as standard, deflect part of the headlight beam upwards towards signs. With HIDs this deflected part of the beam (created by a cutout in the headlight shutter) will blind other road users. Not too hard...

    Windows 8/iOS ballache. Not communicating over Wifi.

    Right, my phone absolutely will NOT connect with my computer in any way over wifi. I can't wifi sync (although the phone occasionally pops up in iTunes, you can't sync etc as it decides that it's not connected after all), use iTunes Remote, or any other external applications (such as Wifipad)...

    Invisible drive through.

    Deserved a thread of its own, some of the reactions are f**king brilliant.

    Live For Speed - Anyone still play it?

    Well, a couple of months ago I splashed out on a new laptop, and recently I redownloaded LFS after quite a while away. I lost a lot of the skins etc I'd made, but I've managed to get hooked again lol. Even though the development is pretty much dead, plenty of people still play LFS, so I was...

    Are you sure that's wise, sir?

    I'm speechless.

    Torpoint, Trerulefoot and Looe - CS Meet.

    Here's what I consider the 'better half' of the pics I took today, let me know what you think. 4000*3000 versions available. Lifted this screenshot from a video, not as high quality as the other pics.

    Brake Failure.

    I'll list as much relevant information as possible so I apologise if this seems long winded. Yesterday I drove through floodwater, no problems with brakes after. This morning when I left the house the handbrake 'stuck' slightly as I moved off but freed straight away. Came out of work today...

    Just saw you pulling out onto Tavistock Road.

    Who's this then? (Fitting flashing lights to your clio!)

    Someone's been fitting grille lights to their 200... Which reminds me, why aren't there any RS police cars?

    Black Vee (blakey?), Plymouth

    Spotted on the parkway about 10-15 mins ago. Looked great!

    CREE LED Reverse lights.

    Think I might be onto something here. There's quite a few people who I've shown these to and they've all been impressed. I originally bought these bulbs because I wanted a decent upgrade to the standard bulbs. They are actually very good, could be a popular mod. Decent range and visibility day...

    Quick dials question.

    Seen a set of ph.1 172 dials for sale, will they work in a ph.1 1.2? They're going at my mileage so if they work I'd be happy!

    CSS Crash pic.

    Looks a lot less, camera's not too good at catching it. Anyone selling a Ph.1 mirror?

    172 Flamer getting a back bumper resprayed in Millbay, next to Car Services.

    Spotted at John Card, Miller Court. No CS badges. Didn't have time to get any pics but looked... used. I'll see if it's still there when I pick my car up tomorrow.

    Bluetooth Auto Connect (iTouch)

    Hey all. Bit of a long shot, but maybe someone has the answer to my problem. Installed my bluetooth stereo today, and plan to stream music off of my iPod Touch (2g, OS 4.2.1, Jailbroken). My iPod connects if I go into settings>general>Bluetooth> tap the name of the stereo. However, it doesn't...

    LED Reverse Light.

    Me again. My reverse light at the moment is crap. Really crap. I can't actually see anything unless I press the brake. So, I'd like to swap it out for LED, so I've been looking around on eBay. Someone on the forum recommended this: But I thought it looked rather tame compared to the others...

    Plateabase - List your reg here.

    OK, the idea of this thread is to list your numberplate here, in full. (Anyone can see your reg anyway so it's hardly secret) If someone spots a Clio, and has the reg, the idea is that they can search the reg on the forum and find out who it is. However very rarely do people post their reg's...

    St. Eval Karting Meet - Saturday 23rd June

    Hey folks, been a while since there was a Real South West meet, so let's get on it with a (hopefully!) sunny summer karting meet. The event will be at St. Eval, near Newquay. It's a top notch track with 70mph karts. Proper fun. Be there or be square. For those coming down from Plymouth/Devon...

    Which handbrake cable? Ph.1 Non Sport.

    No, I didn't snap mine being a hero. Before you ask. Parked on a hill and got a lovely surprise when the handle went right up. I'm pretty sure it's the left one though. On Eurocarparts at the moment, presented with the following: (I've got a 2000 1.2 8v) Pagid: Part No.: 108745058 - £18.90...

    OK, here's a few. All spotted at City College Plymouth, Kings Road. LY 197 Cup - seen you quite a few times. Nimbus 197 Cup - Saw you sometime this week, 197.net sticker. White 197 Cup (popular!) - Seen a while back, only a few times. Iceberg 182 - Saw you either today or yesterday, didn't see...

    Dual Optic Question (Swapping the transparent plastic over)

    I have sitting here a pair of Dual Optics from Chapppers11 ready to go on the car, but they have a fair bit of hazing on them. The blocks on the car (also Dual Optics, broken) don't have any hazing at all. So I'm wondering if it's possible to remove the plastic front from them, and swap them...

    Seat Rail Help

    Right, I've got to change my seat rail over, and I've found the bolts to get the rail off the car, but where are the bolts to get the rail off the seat? Apparently there are 3. Looked in guides and in here, but can't find anything. If anyone has pics, or a diagram, please share!

    Driver Seat Sliding Woes.

    Ok, so the other day someone in the back of my car managed to break the driver's seat. Now it doesn't go back further than about half way, which is usable for driving, but not very comfortable especially if I'm parked up and want some more space. So, I had a go at it after work today. I found...

    Interior Light dimly on.

    OK, looks like something's buggered. When the interior light's set to doors, the interior light comes on very dimly, just enough to light the LEDs. When you open the doors, the light comes on as normal. However, the main problem is that if I leave the light on doors, I'm worried I'm going to...
