In case anyone noticed I wasn't there - I'm in hospital instead heh. Sorry for not posting that I wasn't gonna make it sooner, but I couldn't get online. I know it doesn't really matter but it would've been the polite thing to do :) Dan

And of course, something I forgot to suggest, go test drive one. But make sure you have at least 20 mins or so, make sure it gets properly warmed up so you can feel the full benefit :) You might love it and need one, but you might hate it and find it's not for you! Dan

What happened exactly Dawn? Did it start slipping or did the peddle just go down and not come back up again? Dan

LY was only available on the R27s, to get the longer 5th and 6th gears you need one built after 10th October '07 (or any Cup). No hot hatch is built for pounding the motorway. I prefer the shorter box myself - makes 5th and 6th more usable for accelerating, feels more suited to the engine...

Mine has done just over 11k and seems fine. Going on a 2,600 mile road trip round Europe/the ring/monaco tmrw so I hope it's ok! Dan

I agree, but the only saving grace might be that the policy wasn't in his name - there is a good chance the accident would show up against the company name. Still, we both agree that the letter of the law says yes, you should tell them. Dan

Ah brilliant dude, I asked for one in the other thread, and little did I know, they're already here! Dan

Nice, blue Ph1 172s must be quite rare? Go back to the all red lights hehe! I think I'm the only person in the world that prefers the all red ones aren't I :) As a little constructive critisicm, it may just be the pictures, but that exhaust on the Ph1 appears to be really super massive -...

Looks nice that dude :)

That looks like a whole loada fun! I gave you 5 stars on YouTube as well hehe :)

Well I don't really understand people who just post abuse about someones car obviously just trying to get a reaction and then start going "I'm entitled to my opinion" - sure they are but there's no need to post or post it in a way so as just to annoy people to start an argument. I have better...

They look nice to me :) Although I'm not a fan of your steering wheel/gear nob combo hehe, still, it's not my car so that doesn't matter! Good work, spent ages looking round your sunflower at last years FCS (I think it was yours...) - lovely wee bus :) Dan

AWESOME mate - post the wallpapers, I want the bigger rolling shot for my wallpaper :) I think the hand controls joke was because it was in a disabled bay - he was suggesting everyone that parks in disabled bays needs hand controls I think. It wasn't funny - that's why no one got it :) Dan

Awesome dude :) They're so good to drive aren't they? And just wait till the engine is properly loosened up... It gets so much better :)

I've never really been a fan, the euro look does nothing for me as a rule, but fair play for not doing the usual Turinis and lowering though - it's nice to see something different for a change. Although personallly, I prefer the Turinis and normal mods heh - it's not my so that doesn't matter...

People seem willing to beleive the Corsa VXR is quicker than a 1*2 (from other threads) but also won't beleive a 197 is as quick as a 1*2 - which from my personal, and posted experience doesn't tie up because on the road, up hill, down hill, on the flat, the Clio an the Corsa are 100% even heh...

You're selling the Trophy :o? Getting a 197 ;) ? I thought you'd only just bought the Trophy tbh - or do I have you confused with someone else? Good luck anyway mate :) I wouldn't bother with the magazine at all, I didn't even know you could still buy it heh!

I'd expect it to be covered. They just changed a shock for me under warranty - I didn't have to argue at all, there was never any question of it not being done, and I've done 11k heh. Dan

Technically you should, but you're incredibly unlikely to get caught if you don't (proper 1 in a million type odds). Your call. I wouldn't :) Either way it shouldn't effect your no claims on your Clio. If however, you were to have an accident, and ended up in court or something and it came...

Yea it only plays the first 6 playlists, which is a bit crap to be fair. I've just made 6 like, genre playlists and put it on random. Making sure there is as little stuff as possible that I don't like and would need to skip. Only had a couple of days but it's handy for sure. Not worth £175...

Ha, perfect for the Vee's boot!

Tsk, I've been in New York since Thursday night :)

Ali - What's the score with the kerbed wheels jokes? Had a mishap? Dan

You're ashamed to look old, but not ashamed to look like a cheap skate ;) ? Dan

Awesome pics dude :) Although I feel I must point out, as a favour to yourself sir, that your tiny front plate - mounted in that normal sized plates space, looks a bit seriously shocking :) Dan

Brollie? Pah, I'm bringing a car with a perfectly good roof :) Dan

I'd get the 197 :) But I'm not you, so you shouldn't listen to me and should go get that test drive hehe! That appears to be at Xtreme if I'm not mistaken? They're very helpful and knowledgeable there IME, I'd be happy to buy from them. Dan

Fitted mine today, got it off ebay for £75. Works well, although one thing that I think might get irritating is that because it comes through the CD Changer plug, it only sees all the folders as 6 CDs - so it basically makes 6 folders of loads of tracks/albums each and then lets you flick...

Cheers dudes :) Took me a minute to get that tow car reference hehe :)

Yea we all felt (except the CTR owner hehe) that the CTR looked dated and the mini was so dirty it almost looked like a rally **** :)
