    Just bought a Tomtom

    I wondered what the point of putting your home address in it was (other than to let anyone who pinched it know where you lived) which is why I skipped that part of the set up! :rasp:

    Just bought a Tomtom

    Go 520 Music Edition. Have to say i'm very impressed. Got it from Comet for £179.00 & came with a £10 itunes voucher so £169 really. Only complaint is the bluetooth didn't work on the first one but they swapped it no bother and the second one works fine. Dead easy to use (better imo than BMW...

    supposed to be collecting the f1 today !

    Exactly right. Modern engines don't need to be molly coddled because, as you say, the manufacturing tollerances are tiny nowadays. The idea of bits of metal floating about is ridiculous. Moving parts loosen up over time, sure, but the days of pistons fitting properly once they'd been forced to...

    Squeeling noise coming from air vents

    Recently whilst driving on a (closed airfield, naturally) anytime I went much over 100mph, I started getting a really irritating screetching noise from my air vents. Anyone had a similar problem? Whilst on a private road/race track/autobahn of course ;)

    Supaguard?

    wouldn't waste your money. I used to sell these for BMW. Noticed no difference whatsoever between cars coming in 3 years down the line that had been Supagarded and ones that hadn't. It's just another revnue stream for the dealer. Quite often they make more margin from these and GAP etc than...

    182 - 24K Service...

    Getting mine done at Falkland Performance for £100 +VAT 3 Year old car, no need for Renault stamps imo. Falkland's techs are probably streets ahead of Renault anyway from what I've seen of their setup in Edinburgh.

    Just Picked Up New 182

    cheers on the wheel centre! Will keep asking about re the body shop. Last one I went to was useless - overspray, interior stank of paint for months, paint dust everywhere, wasn't cheap either. Any recommendations gratefully received!

    RS4 Avant v's M5 touring

    Not driven the RS4 but have driven the M5 Touring. What a car it is.. absolutely phenomenal. It actually feels more like your playing Gran Turismo at times though. Watching the speed rise on the head up display just doesn't seem real. The noise it makes when you downshift is hilarious.. Never...

    Just Picked Up New 182

    After a long wait, finally go the car home yesterday. Horrendous 10 hour drive to bring it back but got here in the end! Anyway, reason for the post is I need the bonnet resprayed (black gold) and also one of the wheel centres needs paint too. Does anyone know anywhere good (and preferably...

    Bell Insurance

    OUCH that was sore! Quoted £699 online... just paid £954 to pay monthly.. Bandits, at least if I pay it early I get a rebate so it will be closer to the £699 overall. Still, even at nearly a grand they work out a fair bit cheaper than everyone else.

    Anybody have any experience with these guys? Got a really good quote from them but they want nearly £400 more to pay monthly! Is that normal?

    Ali, hopefully picking up my new 182 this weekend.. would definately be interested in getting someone to give it a good clean, look at swirl marks etc. Would you be able to do this? How much would you charge?

    Hello from Edinburgh

    Hey guys, About to pick up a nice 54 plate Clio 182 after a good 2 months of searching. Foundout about this site via pistonheads and thought i'd find out if there's any tuning specialists based near Edinburgh/east of scotland? Any tips much appreciated
