    Should I buy a 197?

    We shouldnt moan, we only pay it back at something silly like a £5 a week, when you earn £15k+, even then its written off after x ammount of years. Infact we are not paying £27k for tuition because of when we started uni, only £9k total for 3 years. Whats is annoying for me is they are putting...

    Should I buy a 197?

    Well it felt like it went pretty quick, although lap times were slower. Maybe the German registered ones have more power lol.

    Should I buy a 197?

    Im 22 and at Uni. Got a ph2 172 full fat with all the toys :) Ive also driven a 200 cup along with a couple of mk3 1.2's, and a mk1 1.4. The 200 feels faster and bigger than the 172, and it beeps at you furiously to change gear! (this may be switch-off-able - although not when your lapping the...

    dslr newbie

    Thats my favourite photo I think. Thanks, I've been practicing everyday. I've read the stickied links on the forum - which have been good, and I've got an old book from my Dad to read but thats film style slr's. Does anyone know where I can get a cheap 10-20mm lense?

    My new MX5 (Shed Content)

    nice job tidying that sill up. Clio sport JDM meet would be awesome :) I would like a mk1 1.6 mx-5 for track, stick some rota grids on it, a roll cage, zaust, and coilies :) I'd get a hardtop, and not have worry about any holes in the softtop, and when your using it just take the hardtop off.

    My friends new to him Glanza.

    Awesome cars those :) I love those wheels by the way. My mate had one, and the turbo went - so he sold it, I have a feeling he's going to get another when he can afford it though. I nearly bought one myself, but I got a clio instead :) The glanza forums are really good if anyone is considering...

    CHRISTMAS CAME EARLY

    ouch thats such a rip off. I paid £106 a month to insure a 1.6 when I was 17, it dropped to half after the first year. But insurance is always going up nowadays, it should be cheaper though.

    Euro headlight stickers

    Has anyone fitted the headlight beam converter stickers to a clio? I've got a set from the AA, and the instructions dont include xenons for the earlier clios. By the look of the other xenon diagrams, they have them in entirely different places depending on the car. Has anyone got a photo of...

    full car rough gearbox
