Wow, that poor car.

It took Boston 3 goes to do the belts on the old 172. This was before my CS days though, I knew no better

It could. It could also be carrying another 6 years of mechanical neglect compared to a 182, for example.

Holden.

Sounds like service as usual at RUK :rage: Boston lot were my only experience though, in fairness

Best for daily use? A ph2 172 with cruise control and climate. Looks subtle, goes well enough, and with enough creature comforts to make long journeys not entirely intolerable With no "enhancements" on it.

Locked thread? @Sunglasses_Ron

But they do make you sound like you've got a broken exhaust and deliver nearly a whole 1hp, you can see why it's done ;)

Exhaust gasses leaking into cabin = Exhaust gases are leaking from the exhaust system, somewhere.

197 still looks better. ;) Having a "special edition" that's just a different paint code and some extras is something Mazda have done since '88. ;)

I dunno, they were a 1-year only event. With all the best bits. I'd say they're a good sight more special than just turning the boost up on a 5Dr clio and palming it off as "sporty" There's only so many ways you can tell the exact same story

I prefer the whine of a blower TBH. And that when you press GO, it goes...immediately

loose join / hole in exhaust.

Megane with a diff? You can screw more power out of a turbo.....right up until the block gives out. Also, kids love a turbo. Blowers are superior though, @Cub. s one made me grin so hard I almost left a white puddle on the pass. seat

R27's are the apex of Clio.

BlackCirlces. TyreLeader MyTyre CamSKill. Any of those, pls. Blackcircles may be a tough ask though, given that they're actually Tesco Tyres

@ADS_V6 TRY THIS

I'd imagine so, it's just a knob (lol?). email marantz, most of the better AV people will support older products. I had KEF send me bits for a speaker I bought off of eBay ffs, and they didn't charge because it was out-of-circulation stock.

Stickerbombing

Nice used A/V processor....... just needs a power amp to go with it, which will not be cheap. Why is everyone so in on the "buy it used" bandwagon? I get that you can get some bargains, hell I got my Arcam Delta 90 on eBay and no, it has never skipped a beat. But I wouldn't trust a modern...

Already costed up with new Marantz and Wharfedale gear (post 10) :wink: As for cable quality...sure, do't just get 50p/m bell-wire, but for this kind of set-up anything over, say £4/m is overkill. IMO

for £400.... AMP Speakers CD All working straight away, with warranties.

yeah, they'll do you fine. THESE LOOK SILLY CHEAP TOO

Richer Sounds. Job jobbed. Do you even need a CD player anyway? /thread

Bugger. I thought I must have missed something.

mid 90's brought the best looking F1 cars. The original Sauber, The FW14, the sexy but slow ferraris......oh yes

The SSD must have a set of ports on it, somewhere, even if they're non-standard If it can come off the board, there's got to be a method to get an IDE lead into it.....no?

When I had this (not a clio, but hey), it was the rack. All the fluid pissed out one drive home, AA came out, filled it with the wrong juice, came out the next day to drain and refill....not a problem, it had already drained itself via the knackered rack. Bang some fluid in, and have a short...
