Never driven one actually.
But I have driven an actual RS200. I just giggle everytime I see someone call a Clio an RS200.
Same as an RS500 will only ever be a 3 door Cossie and not a matte black Focus.
My sister had a brand new one of these as her first car!
It was when they first came out and were offering free insurance, an offer we have never seen again Hahaha.
Also stops the skirts and rear doors taking an absolute hammering. As shown though, most folk dont regularly clean behind them which can cause more harm.
I ran the mini stone guards on mine which are a nice compromise. Since then, ive had them on the front of the MIni GP and now a set on the...
Not a fan of the diffusers personally, even the OEM 06 one. Instead i ran an original Prodrive diff guard on mine. Looked proper cool from the rear.
Also had a set of the original RAYS extended alloy lug nuts and never had an issue. Shame some wally ruined yours as they're really nice, super...
Not long bought an 11 Pro outright after my 6S finally died and wouldnt even cope with another new battery. Didnt take long to get used to the new ohone and now its pretty intuitive. Unless they make any significant steps on, i cant see me changing for many years to come, as frankly the camera...
There was an Unknown change over of the exhaust brackets on the later 182s. Not sure exactly when or why this was but some 182s have brackets that are 54mm deep, others are 64mm deep. The Pro Ams are modelled on the shallow 54mm design and is why on some cars it can raise the exhaust by 10mm...
Lmao. How am I getting the blame for this here?
😂
Looking good dude. Nice to have a play with parts till you get it just how you want it. I’m loving my PMS on mine now. It’s perfect for me.
It’s no issue. You can only speak as you find. I’ll just not be rushing back. It’s only a pub at the end of the day and as said, I’ve far far better on my doorstep with no lack of proper metal in attendance.
Turnout was poor. (not the venues fault!)
Food took longer to arrive than the drive there, and was basic and tepid when it did. Hardly like they were busy either as it was a ticketed event.
So as said, the turnout is nothing to do with them, but the food & drink certainly is.
Just see all the...
Not much to update on the little 182.
Popped to Caffeine & Machine the other week with friends inc @Dr Jekyll, @MrBlonde & @Ash J.
Great day with the company in tow but less said about the actual place the better. Hugely overrated imo and as expected typical Instagram style over substance...
Yup, 11mm drill and big b*****d RivNut installer. I used a Cobalt bit but i could have used an 11mm sausage thus is the thickness and integrity of the stock subframe.
Nope thats pretty much it. But the subframe isnt that massive and the sump guard is incredibly rigid as it is. I dont think it needs any swaging personally as its hard alloy and not the usual soft sheet stuff.
Tough one really mate, as new they're quite spendy and i didnt buy it new.
If you can pick up a used one and make sure you get it fitting with no fouling then absolutely. Significantly improved front end feel and the obvious protection under the car when pressing on. I haven't caught it yet...
I found that the transmission was kissing some of the bolt heads that holds the gear selector rod protection piece. I removed one or 2 pieces of hardware in those locations. It has massively reduced the NVH but its still kissing somewhere at full load WOT that i need to investigate. Even with VT...
Most Taxi laps with multiple people in are around the low 8 min mark. That’s quick to those not familiar with the track or the speed available there. However seasoned drivers there with reasonable but not outrageous equipment are around 7:30 pretty regularly.
I don’t care who you are, if...
Selling for big money now too. I sold all of mine for around £250 a piece inc covers Now the fog covers alone fetch around £300.
I still have a full prodrive grille in the garage lol.
Watched this the other night too. I rreally like the Apex guys and watching Robert around there was superb.
Im a Porsche fanboy and we can all bang on about GT3s and the like, but the way the BMW M cars cope with the useage there is really impressive.
Apart from being on a board in the...
