    Car Hijacked!!!!

    yeah they have been relaxed but that doesnt mean you can do someone in. TBH ists more up to the coppers that attend. I mind when a mate moved into a house and had no leccy (so no light), I was in the toilet doing a pee and someone smashed the window and stuck their hand in to open the window...

    Car Hijacked!!!!

    I thought if you hand over the keys the insurance will not pay up. You have to put up a fight and if you die well thats tough from the insurers point of view.

    182 being used for take away delivery...

    lol you dont half talk crap. I have never heard of any take away paying any insurance rates for delivery boys. go to any court in the land and you will no doubt see a few boy racers there about to lose their licenses for doing deliveries without taking out business cover.

    Which is quicker to 60

    lol ok, torque wies races whatever, why build 900bhp but 300ftlb cars then? Why not sod the power then just get the torque? Twin entry turbos are not exactly new and i think we all know what they are for. Main benefits are they allow a larger A/R ratio and for it to remain driveable...

    Which is quicker to 60

    Well for a start a turbod 182bhp 2litre car will not be terribly good engine if thats what its extracting unless its only running 1PSi or so. NA cars have a better power band feed than turbo cars. When you have mapped a few you will also agree. Bottom line is response and delivery are better...

    Which is quicker to 60

    The NA car would walk away from it. need a good deal more bhp from a turbo car to match an NA car - FACT

    Oil level going down aswell please help

    the gauge inside the car. really... If you look at the handbook and indeed common sense shoudl tell you to ignore the gauge as its crap. The lowest indent on the dipstick is the min mark and the next is the max mark. So if its going from max to min then its not that much to worry about if its...

    Oil level going down aswell please help

    by 3/4s do you mean 3/4s of whats in the sump or 3/4s of the min/max distance. If its the min/max distance then thats under a litre then thats tolerable. If its the full sumps capacity then thats nearly 3/4 litres and its either leaking heavily or your being followed by a blue smoke trail...

    Oil level going down aswell please help

    really midge? Who would have thought... This has nothing to do with the miracle of a blown headgasket oil/coolant, allowing by magical forces no less, to travel upwards into the plug well. Which I am still waiting for an answer to, if this is really happening then its gonna be on the telly...

    Oil level going down aswell please help

    what I would liek to know is how can a blown headgasket cause this? Is it a magical clio only feat that when a gasket below the plugs blows the oil/water magically travels by osmosis through the solid metal that is the head and ends up in the plug well? Or does it go out the side work against...
