Sh***er mate, it really does make you wonder why you bother buying anything nice that you really want. Other people are sure to f**k it up

Yeah you can just turn the wheels with pedal pressed hard, apparently not good enough, but good idea about the compensator.

Yeah shown them this but they said the back brakes arn't reading anything not just 'too low' It passed last year after new pads/discs braided lines and fluid nothing changed since then

Mines failed for the first time ever today on the rear brakes. Used same garage as past x amount of years etc. The tester said there were not working at all not just poor efficiency. Argued the toss told him about the compensator are disconected blah blah blah, still failed it and said the...

If your at standstill the car is using fuel (tickover) but your not moving so you will be effectively returning 0mpg, which will reduce the mpg average. Also the cold weather has a temdency (from past experience) to reset the trip computer without notice or warning, this could explain the poor...

Replaced the A539's IIRC, Which were good tyres for the price. Parada's are better but more money obviously. Give them a try and report back.

Ford should have made one from day one, last rs fiesta? erm rs turbo/rs 1800? I really, really like it.

Overpriced? Meh theres a few on there for more money with slightly lower miles and some for less money. Stuck mine in the middle, get knocked down a bit everyone's a winner.

Linky: Focus RS: http://www.pistonheads.com/sales/508242.htm 172 CUP: http://www.pistonheads.com/sales/508180.htm Selling as i fancy a change. Looking at Exige or Elise 111R. Cheers

i stuffed a duster at the bottom of the rear "door card" make sure its tight and it stops the rattling. Forever needs adjusting tho?

Soz for late reply, Look fine i was under the impression that if you went wider you also went lower to keep the profile the same as its a percentage of the width not a measurement. So 195/45 205/40 wider tyre but same wall height? May be wrong but they look no different in height to me. I only...

205/40/16 Parada spec 2 is what ive gone for after 195/45/16 a539's. Never looked back. I had same issue with the way yoko 195's fit as well.

i Bought mine nearly 3 yr ago, Immaculate and amean Immaculate, 12,000 mile for £7,900. I was hoping the price would hold due to them being so good lol but it aint and doubt it will. After owning a cup for this long i regret not buying a 182 with cup packs which after years of denial are the...
