    First DSLR shots at night

    I have a Megs G220 Polisher - basically the same thing without an inverter heh, and it's the bestest thing ever :D I love the feeling of satisfaction I get after taking loadsa swirls out hehe. Good shots, like your carbon bonnet. Dan

    some recent pictures

    Jesus f**king christ that's awesome. Allegedly the manifolds are the most restrictive bit of the exhaust aren't they? I assume you've seen Tim's Mk1 spec to get 305bhp on V6.net an in PT Magazine? Running the Motec in there as well? Dan

    clio vee's

    Allegedly one was dropped off a transporter by Renault as well and written off. Yea, hence the names, 230 and 255 :) But if you race two side by side from a standing start there would be nothing in it in reality heh. 255 is a much safer handler and has more toys. It's also more lardy. Pays...

    Whats my lY 197 F1 Worth

    I've seen this punted around a bit - does anyone actually have a reference or any evidence of it though? Dan

    Tiff Needell: C*** extraordinaire

    Worst thread ever. It was a bit for TV - it's meant to be entertainment. Tiff is a better driver than anyone on here will ever be. End. Dan

    Info on this LY

    Make it public, YKIMS ;) Dan

    Which 197?

    Yea absolutely true - but you can't get Liquid Yellow can you? Also, number plaques are cool hehe :) You can get the stickers on eBay :D Also consider testing a Corsa VXR, nice cars IMHO and easy power with a remap if that's your thing. Regal give you 230bhp for sub £500. Dan

    Which 197?

    Yup, if money isn't the issue find the best, newest, lowest mileage 2nd hand R27 you can - or there is a 10 mile pre-reg, LY on the trader, it is £17k though heh. Get the latest build date/number you can and you'll get the revised gearbox as well. Dan

    Whats my lY 197 F1 Worth

    Yea I agree, for sure the yellow will bag him a few quid. Problem is, the general public will see the Cup as 'the same car' for £13k brand new :( Dan

    Whats my lY 197 F1 Worth

    Don't let it go for less than £13k for sure, but putting it up at £16k is a waste of time IMHO - I'd be amazed if you got so much as one genuine call. Options seem to make precious little difference to 2nd hand car values in my experience. But, I could be wrong, advertising on PH is free...

    Retrimming Service

    I'll have some of this action :D I assume I don't have to post the airbag to you? I have a totally spare wheel, so if you want I can just send you that and £100, and you can re-trim that? Also, is there anychance of blue leather to match the seats, or grey alcantara to match the seats...

    1.2 16v to a 1.6 16v ??

    ^^^ But he's also considering money. Dan

    1.2 16v to a 1.6 16v ??

    Ferrari owners say the same about your M3. 1.6 16v - 110bhp, 1.2 16v 75bhp. 50% would be a 37.5bhp difference, but it's close enough heh. Dan

    1.2 16v to a 1.6 16v ??

    Like I posted up there, it's got a nigh on 50% power hike over the 1.2. Dan

    K-Tec 197

    Ah they're better than any I found heh, cheers :) There is deffo some more somewhere of it just on it's own. Ah well. And that old bird at the end, lookin a bit haggered round the eyes for me ;) Dan

    K-Tec 197

    I appear to be being a bit crap, and can't find any decent pictures of the Red K-Tec 197 (with the 18s, RS skirts etc) - can someone please post them heh. I KNOW I've seen them before, the only ones I can find are from FCS and are all really tight angles or have people standing in front of it...

    Whats you best mod??

    Hmmm, the K-Tec backbox for me. Followed by the MP3 HU and Pioneer underseat sub - I like music and needed a reasonable setup so I could hear it in the Vee for those rare days when I didn't just wanna listen to the K-Tec, but I didn't wanna go all out, add loads of weight and ICE it up, also...

    R27 with Cup Spoiler

    P.s. Photos of that blue 197 w/19s were taken from here - http://www.clio197.com/forum/viewtopic.php?p=2098&highlight= where you can read about his other mods as well. Dan

    trophy rep

    I saw a Clio, none RS, the other day that I would swear blind was Capsicum Red. To the point where I really thought it was a Trophy till it got a bit closer (My eyesight is s**t heh). It was definately Capsicum I'm sure of it - indeed one of my friends owned a Flamer for like 2 years and it...

    LY R27 in Hunmanby - And mint Williams

    Saw the R27 a little while ago, looked stunning, and the Williams yesterday - looked brand new to be fair, I wanted it :) Dan

    How much abuse can a 197 engine take?

    One of the most ridiculous things I've heard on here to be fair, and that's saying something :) Smack into the limiter every gear change if you want - you should probably let it warm up first (although even this isn't half as important as it used to be with modern oils and the like -...

    1.2 16v to a 1.6 16v ??

    I dunno, it's quite a nice step to be fair. I did this (albeit not with clios) and went to a 1.6 16v 206 from my first car (ok, my first car was a 1.6 405 heh, but it was exactly the same in a straight line as my mates 1.2 16v Corsas and Clios :)) and the difference was quite a lot. Loved...

    Whats my lY 197 F1 Worth

    Pop it on Pistonheads at £13k, take £12.5k and it'll sell in a week. They're not handing around for long. There was a red one with a very similar spec to yours, went for £12.5k in 2 days. Infact because yours is yellow, I'd put it up at £13,250 and take £13k I reckon. I think it'll sell no...

    R27 with Cup Spoiler

    ^^^ Did you just buy it? Saw one on Pistonheads in RB with the spoiler the other day, me and my mate had like a 2 hour conversation on MSN about whether we liked it or not and concluded that it almost certainly looked good in the flesh and pictures didn't do it justice heh. Personally for...
