everytime i park on my drive (which is slopped or go round a sweeping corner quite fast my handbrake light and stop light come on. could this be to do with the ecu or maybe just a faulty sensor?

not my cup of tea

very nice!

i got my belt and tensioners done from my local garage for 320 i think.

kwik fit are robbin gypsy's id never go there. they tried to tell my girlfriend at the time she needed a timing belt for her ka. funny seeing as they dont have timing belts its a chain.

i love mine i know its rubbish build quility and little things break on it but i love its bare simplicity and raw speed. especially the cup its wot driving is all about. no tc abs or any fancy toys just u and the car. and its always the underdog. people in there 2ltr bm's and mercs laugh when...

whats everyones opinion on the best brake upgrade? grooved, drilled or both? iv heard drilled are the best but eat through pads quick. going to the nurburgring later this year so need brakes that can handle a fair bit of punishment.

oh dear

looks tidy dunno about the rear mudflaps tho

quick little cars my mate had a white one with white wheels looked stunning... until he binned it!!! :mad:

cheers guys a few people have told me to get it lowered but i think it looks good standard!

just had a look just now but i couldn't find any. i'll pop along to renault i wouldnt think they'll be too pricey. whats everyones opinion on air filters i have a pipercross on mine which i think gives better throttle response but a few people on here have said it saps some of the power.

yeh i have looked into that where is the best place to get the cup badges for the doors? just a renault dealership? clear side indicators will be easy enough to pick up. i have also looked at seats but they seem a bit on the pricey side. any recommended websites for them?

cheers im just being lazy. brakes and a new set of boots r my top priority apart from that it will be standard

hi all been on here for a while now and finally got some pics of my much loved 172 cup. cleaned it the other day so thot it was about time to get some photos. completely standard altho mods will be needed as she is going to the nurburgring in august but keeping the exterior the same! hope this...

hahaha bunch of c***s that drive them anyway

there arent any. the only good racing game is forza which only has silverstone from the uk. race driver is coming out in march from codemasters which could have all the british tracks on it

im not sure yet but we're sharing it because the breakdown covers the driver not the car so if any 1 of the cars breaks down its covered by 1 policy.

yeh thats wot i think. basically if it rains im not goin near the place no tc and abs in the wet at the ring! have more chance of staying alive being hit by a bus. altho one of my mates is taking an old alfa gtv. 1984 rwd stripped out with around 150bhp so i suppose it could be worse!

it probably will be more as im going with a passenger so it will probably be nearer a bag of sand after halfing petrol, ferry etc. well we thought on monaco but its a bit out of the way. if u seen the 1st top gear of the last series that'll be most of the roads we'll be going on. also looked...

cheers well no i'll push my car but i know its limits and i know if theres someone up my arse not to race him just let him by. im aiming for an under 10 mins time do u think that is reasonable? well i live in scotland so we're getting the ferry from rosyth to zeebrugge then through germany on...

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zZvcQ27aWmw thats supercharged. and bloody scary looking

well its me and a few mates going with various cars. i reckon the whole trip will cost around 600 inc ferry petrol food spending money and to go round the ring. basically a bag full of clothes a tent and a jerry can full of petrol is going in the back of my car and thats it. also need to get...

hi all just needed some advice as i am taking my 172 on a road trip across europe in september. i will be stopping off at monza the stelvio pass and the nurburgring last (for obvious reasons). i will be getting insurance abroad and aa cover but i dont know if its worth looking into insurance for...

id get some no claims on ur own 1st or u'll be paying through the roof. i was 21 when i got my cup and i was 750 from direct line

id probably say just above 5k

cant seem to post pics for some reason probably cos im a bit stupid!

thats my car sorry it is a typo its meant to say vauxhall nova not renault clio.lol

thats brave in the wet mate!

a decent one will cost u upwards of 5k. id probably say nearer 6.
