    Quarry Corner... Castle Combe Circuit.

    I was expecting to see that old guy with the Omega in there. He's always there.

    Always seeing you around. Followed you the other day and tried to see where you went to say Hi. But you shot over a rounder about and I couldn't keep up.

    mondial blue clios

    I would pick which ever one had the cambelt done, and more history. Obviously factor in mileage. As for climate, the 52 plate doesn't look to have it in the pics, and as far as I was aware it was an option 2003 onwards. The original 52 plate ones didn't come with the choice. That's what I...

    mondial blue clios

    As sad as it is I chose the Cup specifically because of the colour. Needed a car, looked into 172s as they were coming down in price, came across as Cup in Mondial and that was that, my search was limited to Mondial.

    mondial blue clios

    Mondial comes on the 172 Cup only, but 172 Cups come in Mondial blue, and Silver.

    Newbie without a Clio lol

    142bhp sounds more like an F4R actually.

    Advertising the car...

    Is it really a big deal if it doesnt sell by the time your Cup arrives? I mean noone wants a car just sat there, but if you are going to have to knock hundreds off to get rid of it, then you may be best off keeping a few weeks longer. If perhaps the tax expires at the end of Dec and that is your...

    Liquid yellow 182.... value check !! please help!!

    In all fairness if the garage had of waited for Lou to buy the car, they would have been waiting and disapointed for turning away Holla as Lou ended up buying a different one. For that exact reason, is why garages accept a deposit when its shown their way, because you can't rely on a verbal...

    Advertising the car...

    If you put it up in the middle of December, you won't have as much interest as if you put it up for sale now. Wait til Nov, and advertise it stating when you can do the deal. Or put it on Ebay, deal with tens of idiots, and potentially have it still on the drive as the winner dails to commit...

    *** Official Call of Duty: Black Ops thread ***

    World at War was cheap in ASDA and MW2 was cheap in Sainsbury's last year. Wonder if either of those 2 will decide to do a cheap launch deal again, or if another chain may do the same this time round. Hope so. Hotukdeals will be the place to look a couple days before.

    Direct Com Port card?...

    That looks like the kiddy! Cheers. I have a few old PCs somewhere, they may have an old card possibly then.

    Direct Com Port card?...

    I think thats what I need. Basically I have a vinyl plotter which uses a serial port for connectivity. Currently an RS232 to USB cable connects it to my PC. This is very unreliable and ideally I want to cut the middleman and have basically a card with a male serial port on my computer. So...

    Nearly commited to murder today

    Been there before. Chased the little scrote with a dustbin. He did try to kick a jack from under the car after the initial rock incident so I had a justified reason. Didn't catch the blighter, but he didn't come back.

    Toyo Proxie 4's.

    If you drive sensibly and don't expect them to grip to high heaven at silly speeds down country lanes then they will be fine. No worse than a budget. Just remember you have them on and drive normally.

    My 172 Cup

    Simular first touches to what I did to mine. Although I am still rolling with odd mats! How much were the genuine RS mats? Looks very clean!

    Non Centred Steering Wheel

    Perhaps you have a lot of wear on components which is causing the movement. On a previous car of mine my steering was straight. Had the tracking done for piece of mind and after that it drove like a pissed crab. Took it back to the place and they said it was spot on alignment wise, and later...

    Vmaxx or K-tec coilovers?

    For reference, here is mine when I initially wound the coilover very low to see how low it made it to work up from... A shade more than -50mm.
  21. ilovewilly

    Vmaxx or K-tec coilovers?

    The rear is probably about 45mm yeah. The front... I would hazard a guess they can lower at least 100mm. Way more than 50mm thats for sure.

    Clio 172 Cup - strange noise on acceleration

    The dogbone mount underneath in good condition? The engine mount at the top can give a lot of movement. I packed mine out with shims and it stopped most movement. Those sorts of problems usually cause a knock rather than a grating sound though.

    Non Centred Steering Wheel

    I had my alignment done a couple of weeks ago on my Cup, but I wouldn't recommend the place that did it. Kings, ah, have had some funny experiences there. I use Weston's Renault now, who aren't a great deal better. I presume you are aware of why the Cup's usually fail the rear brake test?

    Non Centred Steering Wheel

    If the dealership you are looking at on that alignmycar site is Vincents Toyota, I think its gone under. What stealer did the wheels, Kings?

    Excel =LEN formula help

    Yeah can use a maximum of 3 using the tool. But for Length of value it has to be in the 'formula' box as if I put say between 1 and 10, it would only work if those numbers where entered. As its character length of say 1 character of more, it needs a formula

    Excel =LEN formula help

    I have a cell that I need to change colour when a certain amount of characters are entered. Basically its so when a certain amount of staff initials are entered, it can change colour red,amber,green when there are enough staff to operate. 2 or 3 staff, red 4 or 5 staff, amber 6 and...

    Yay or Nay?

    If you like it, chuck it on. It's a sticker and easily removed if you decide it looks crap.

    172 Cup Alarm problems!

    I have to keep telling the wife to keep her hands off as she keeps trying to lift the handle the second I press the remote. As above, is about a second or so delay.
