I love my flocked dash, had it about a year and I think it looks so much better than standard. As long as you have a good hoover with a brush attachment it isn't too difficult to keep clean either. :)

Yea it's been out for ages, I snapped the screw holding the spoiler on so haven't bothered sorting it. Good to see everyone, hopefully next meet is a bit warmer!

I think that should be an important factor, but make sure they were done by a reputable garage, preferably a specialist.

Even the low mileage examples would need the belts and dephaser doing (if they had never had them done before) - its based on time as well as mileage. :)

Yea he's coming. See you at about 7 on Thursday. ;)

I've killed the majority of my cars so only ever actually sold one, and it went to a guy an hour away down in London so I'll probably never see it again.

This still going ahead?

Right-o, thanks for the quick response guys.

This is probably a silly question, but how does this cover come off if I wanted to get to the hub nut?

Interested to see the price of this. Looks good that.

Barely any updates to report, but I decided to fit my black stainless bolts to the engine bay last weekend while the sun was out:

I should be able to make it, I'll ask Rob G as well - he sold his Clio but he's bought an MX5 as well!

It is heavily advised on here to use a specialist for belt changes. Lots of bad stories from people who haven't.

8 year bump!

I like it, always appreciate the effort put into these cars.

Good thread, nice work dude. :)

I took mine off quite a while ago (the large rear section) as the rattle was driving me nuts. I hope it's not dangerous to drive without it!!

No. Sorry.

I was tempted to go and see what its like, but not sure if it will be worth it. Will probably see what the weather is like.

Could maybe be related to the traction control?

You'd be better off bullet pointing the modifications.

No worries, glad I could help. ;)

I'd of said an IF statement should do the trick? =IF(C3>0,C3-G1,"") Something along those lines?

I also thought this. The garage put it down to the fact that the battery may have been the original and as it was so knackered it just meant the car couldn't start. Personally I can't get my head around it and don't really understand how a new battery has fixed my problems but like I say, it...

It appears to have been solved, yes. I had a new battery put in a while ago now and have since not had any troubles with starting the car or the immobilser at all. I must admit though that I keep expecting it to develop problems, but I'm glad that so far it hasn't.

Unlucky mate. If I were you I'd be tempted to see what a few places would charge to fix it - might not be as expensive as you think. Seems you are pretty set on selling though. What have you got lined up next?

I may have my Turinis refurbed at some point and have been toying with the idea of going gold or bronze, but I'm not really sure how this would look. Has anyone ever done this? Any photos would be great. *edit: Damn! Spelt Turinis wrong in the thread title!!*

Cheers dude :) only just noticed your comment.
