I've now had over a dozen PM's about the mods to my dCi 80. (Superchips with extra fuelling programmed above 3500rpm to cater for top-end easy breathing thanks to K&N panel filter) To give you an idea of what 100+ bhp & 172 lb/ft feels like, I let a colleague drive it....... He said...

Six weeks on and still lovin' it! It will easily stay with a Mondeo TDCI 130, Zafira CDTI 150 (I know cos my Wife test drove them both hard last night) or other modern 2.0D up to a ton and I get bored playing with standard 'gutless' Mini Coopers.......... AND The economy has jumped from a...

see pics. TSW Catalunya in Graphite with Yoko A539's (quieter than Toyos)

52 litres D @ 99.9 even @ 60mpg, that's over a grand a year on diesel ......... :-( "Double Yoiks" as Shaggy would say

Cool number plates still available from ........... www.dvlaregistrations.co.uk

100 miles after 'chipping' the clutch is slipping! floor it at 2000 rpm, revs to 2400ish and back to 2200 before flying (V6 levels of 170lb/ft+ Max torque at 2300) Still OK most of time, but does it even on a sudden 2/3rd throttle Do I? A) get it un-chipped? B) get it adjusted...

did it twice today exiting a roundabout @ 2000rpm in 3rd hasn't done this in 40K, mind you it wasn't Superchipped last week!

just had the dCi chipped, they even tuned the top end for the K&N............ standard 85bhp, 140lb/ft chipped 110bhp, 172lb/ft I was a bit sceptical of the whole 'chipping thing' so I put it against the stop watch last week and again this morning! (exactly same place, much worse...

Hi, about a year ago, I remember seeing a weblink to a site where you typed in the weight of a car and the BHP and it gave you 'estimated' performance figures? You could work out the kind of gain a 20bhp 'chip' upgrade might give you! anyone?

Don't believe the hype about having to go to Main Dealer to keep Warranty. EU rules say: MUST be VAT registered garage and use genuine parts ONLY. Reno wanted £292 for a 36K on my dCi....wtf........ Local Garage (far more efficient, courteous and thorough, receipt and stamped book, even...

just looked on DVLA website - [MY55 VEE] is only 795! clicked to buy it to make profit and they added transfer fee and VAT, so 1012 still a v nice plate - anyone buying a new one????

Just filled up with diesel at a garage near Kettering where the guy behind the counter had a modded Clio - a bit OTT for me - Cherry Red, 17s, silver twin stripes, massive wing, and full kit - plate was [CUSI VWM] or similar. I asked if we was a Cliosport Member - No ......... ...

if you live MK or Northants area .... want to get 17s refurbed, need to borrow a set of 14, 15, 16 or 17" wheels (any old sh*t with legal tyres) for one week in the New Year. Will be returned clean with a case of Lager or Beer (available from Tesco!)

... sell your 1.2 and buy a dCi! just had a 1.2 16V hire car for 2 days - 16V quicker than I thought, but not much mid-range and poor economy (the wifes 1.6 16v Xsara is better) I put £20 in in 2 days - lasts a week in dCi :-( did 43mpg easy, 37mpg hard (dCi 75mpg & 63mpg) Im keeping my...

filled up yesterday and re-set trip drove 5 miles on a busy but free flowing A road @ max 50 in top mpg was stuck on 99.9mpg average was 46mph but miles to go read 1340 I know it it shows 770 to go @ 70mpg (and Ive managed 798), so assuming 11 gallons must have been doing 121mpg!

lots of 182s dont have em, but those that do (Toms pics) look cool :D I know the wings are wider on a 172/182, but will a 182 front spiltter fit an ordinary new shape??
