My 172 got written off at the end of last year so I "upgraded" to an Audi S3 8L but I really miss my Clio. The audi is quick (265bhp) but just doesnt feel the same as the nippy 172. The question is, if I get another would I better off getting a 197 or another 1*2? Do they feel similar to drive...

Mine wasn't working, even when I tried to replace that so thought I'd just upgrade it instead :) My Clio is dead now but its something I'd do again

Ended up in the middle of a 5 car accident on the A500 this morning. I'm very bruised and sore but mainly just gutted that the car I've had sat on my drive and worked on for 6 months has gone after less that a month of driving it :( need to decide what to do next, I don't have a lot of money and...

So when I got the car the heating was working fine but recently I get nothing. The display works but when I try to turn on the fans I just hear a click and get nothing. I'm hoping that it's just the resistor pack but just need the time to check. Still thinking of changing my wheels and maybe...

Needs spacers or nah?

Some pictures coming soon... black cup spoiler on and will be staying black because i really like it :D Car is finally in use as my daily as of today. Been waiting for 6 months as it wasn't realistic to insure until i got my first year no claims discount. Props to brentacre for being very...

Looks great :D

Fitted a black cup spoiler last night and put a new battery on :D

I had to file down the hole that the cigarette lighter came out of to make the usb ports fit so if youve bought the same one you'll have to do the same. Managed to get a really good tight fit so i didnt bother screwing the plastic ring on the underside after as it wasnt budging anyway

Black to black, red to red/pink and tape up the blue one if i remember correctly

You already got some ph2 lights to go in? I have a spare set sitting around if needed

Yeah not far at all, I go stone for a drink at the swan sometimes then nip next door for a pizza :D

Just read this from the start and it's nice to see a proper job being done, lots of people would probably just go for the easy option. Where about in Stoke you from? I'm in Trentham

I had the same thing but because the wheels were being scrapped I just took a grinder, hammer and chisel to them (im 25 with no welding experience or equipment otherwise i'd have tried that). Left them in a right mess but didn't cost anything so was still relatively happy, here's the state of...

Do rota grid v's have different offsets for different colours or will it be a website error? On demon tweeks its showing flat black as 7inch wide with ET20 but the chrome or neo chrome are 8inch wide with ET0 (im guessing these ones wont fit)

She also bought me the car lol and no sorry just a twin brother and a younger brother

thanks guys, I don't want to ruin the ride for the sake of looks so always trying to find that nice middle ground where looks good and rides well - other people liking the looks of it too is a bonus but not essential :P

15" or 16"?

yeah those first ones aren't going to happen and I knew most of you lot on here wouldn't like the others :P more concerned with if they will fit though. Other wheels I like are the rota grid v's which im guessing fit alright because i've seen them on a few before. My taste in most things is...

stuttgart are 8 x 15″ 4×100 ET25 Calibre vintage are 7 x 16″ 4×100 ET38 Lenso BSX are the same as the calibre but 7.5" wide and available in a range of offsets from 15 up to 45. As you can see all similar style which is the style that I want but just also want the best fitting and then...

The looking crap bit doesn't bother me too much because I only care if I like it (and my girlfriend because she's buying the wheels) but if its going to ruin the handling then not worth it. My second choice was something like stuttgart st1's/lenso bsx/calibre vintage - again I know they're not...

Looking to get some new wheels soon but unfortunately I like to be a bit different rather than going the OEM+ route like most. I've looked at a few different websites and posts to try and get my head around wheel fitment and the different aspects but still left with a question of whether...

I remember going for a piss at about 4am and there were still a few people around the fire then, will be one of them next year because I was fookin freezing

Nice to see someone covering their willy up

Welcome to the forum, love a ph1 - what colour you getting?

Quick update from the weekend - finally got around to sending the rear shocks off to GAZ for a service so should get them back and fitted by end of next week (ss this simple enough to do by myself?). Cup spoiler purchased from someone on the facebook group - its black and my car is silver but im...

So essentially you bought it to save it and make sure it didn't get stripped for parts or tracked?

I remember reading your project thread on this car, its a lovely example

Looks tidy - intrigued to hear how this happened...
