    What would be the ideal wheel size for...

    I would guess sticking with the original 16"s (would it run any better on 15"s?) What Offset? I have decided to start looking out a set of alloys for trackdays and need to know what would be good. Maybe some old dynamique wheels if they would fit for instance.

    182 got all twitchy on me

    Scared me a bit. Was only on the M25, just tonking along at about 70-80 when needed to brake. I was sat in the middle lane on a very slight bend and needed to get down to about 30-40 so squeezed the brakes and the motor just pulled to the left. Enough to worry me into releasing the...

    Good natured ZR160 debate...

    what do u think of: "Personally I dont think that much to the Clio. Having worked on Clio Cup Scholarship days and driven loads of them on circuits and endured the frightening experience of being alongside a "Revved up wanna be racing driver"!

    nice little Clio story...

    Parked my car up next to a Cooper S yesterday morning. He was an older guy than me, in his late 30s Id say. Anyway he was parking at the same time and he looked over as we walked outta the car park and smiled at me and said "nice car!" I said "not bad yourself mate" and he asked me if mine...

    Are my wipers sh*t or am I a pussy

    Cos when recently when its been properly pissing it down with LOADS of spray in the dark I dive into the left hand lane and am happy sitting between 40-60mph, when you still get Mercs and Beemers and Jags and big rovers and that screaming past at 80mph. Do they have extra special mega screen...

    I CANT DECIDE B2 or RA2

    I need some serious help lol Need to make a decision. I fancy the RA2 as its easy to install and use and looks pretty, but I reckon Id need the extra antenne thing (£20). B2 is cheaper AND tells you the speed of the road you are on. Ah man. HELP.
