    Volvo Love

    I dunno. Saw a Viggen on Autotrader today. 200k mileage, but a 3-door in blue. The tempt is happening

    Volvo Love

    Hatred runs ever deeper now. Time to locate an old 360, or 980 (that was the far too big rectangle, wasn't it) Edit: actually, a Ph.1 C30 pls. (Aka: 480 turbo)

    I hate him. But, equally, admire him

    Why are there no good 850's, 460's or 740s for sale any more :((((

    Project cars

    much. I struggle to balance Mid-engine cars on this game. Far harder than in the GT games. At least with FR cars, you're not instantly in the fence when you have to correct mid-sweeper

    Front wheel drive? What is this, a pass plus scheme?

    Project cars

    I think I spend nearly all my non-career laps on the MSV tracks. The Sauber doesn't take well to the club section of Cadwell, but the Snetterton 200 is a proper game Who else has all the damage modelling switched on? I dont get why you wouldn't, other than to make the game easier.

    New Car- Fiesta ST-Line

    If you don't mind having more regular rebuilds...... The 2.8l capri developed 150hp in the 70's The Civic Vti made 150hp from a 1.6, in the 90s now, Ford make nearly the same from a commercially available 1.0. Sure, you wont get the smell of a carb-fed V6 or the noise of VTEC (y0) But you do...

    Project cars

    I'm late to the party here, got the GOTY edition on discount from PSN. Best £30 I spent. I am shockced that, for a car game, there isn't at least 1 standard MX5 though, the hideous wel-sik, redbull monstrosity can go suck it's own boost pipe. I want to do laps of Cadwell in a 1.8. The Sauber...

    Premium Tyres

    What boils my ass with magazine tyre tests is that they do a hardcore test for the first 15 miles of a tyre. That's it. Great, and what about after 3000 miles? Agreed on Yokos tho, they need heat to work. The paradas on my Mazda were superb in summer but now, may as well be linglong Wangers

    Standard 172 brakes vs Brembo conversion

    I can't imagine mounting them to the exhaust will make a useful difference, no. But sounds like you have a better idea than most on here, but how can something be "overbraked"? Just curious, if I could make my car pull an endo by breathing on the pedal, I'd be happy with that :)

    Premium Tyres

    Is this for a normal 182 Clio? Contisport, Goodyear Eagles, Yokohama Paradas, Bridgestone Potenzas, Hankook Ventus, Vredestein Ultrac. UniroyalRainsport. Any of those, you cant miss.

    I hate my mobile provider

    Damn right they are. I was advising an escalation department for a company in the sector and got to hear a lot of the recorded calls. I asked some of the people on the phones "why didn't you just cut them off, you shouldn't have to take that kind of abuse" and it was because they had targets to...

    I hate my mobile provider

    This isn't about "who's the best", this is just people crying because they didn't get the service levels that were in place in the late 90's.... when your £15 a month would get you 15 on-network minutes. Only. But it's not just Vodafone, I found Orange utter s**t when I had them. o2 were...

    Best handling mods for my new 182?

    Spend £3k on parts. Bemoan Clio for being undriveable and s**t. Sell New owner removes go-faster bits, replaces with OEM parts. Sells mods to CS members, covers cost of Clio. The circle of modz

    Best handling mods for my new 182?

    I'd be looking to take it to track first, then assess what needs doing off of the back of that. The likelihood is that parts would only need changing out for new OEM parts to make an 11yr old renault feel a good sight better. Otherwise you're going to just start pissing money like shelling...

    New Car- Fiesta ST-Line

    Why bother building any other cars than a GT40? I mean, come on. Renault are thinking the same as you and are just going to scrap all their model line besides the R.S.0.1. because, like you said, why would anyone want to buy anything else? Seriously. Vauxhall now only do Monaros. Other than the...

    To sell or store?

    Mothball it and sell it on in a couple of years time when another 15% of the rolling stock has been cubed/broken/barrel-rolled. ;)

    To sell or store?

    So leae a mostly empty tank, then when you fill it up again, the water will dilute away and burn off. Hell, call it water injection, that's an extra 3hp in Cylinder 3

    To sell or store?

    Maybe not so much the full tank of fuel, it'll only degrade whilst it's in there Silica packs would be a great move

    To sell or store?

    In the grand scheme of house financing, you'll piss that £1500 up the wall in no time at all and it wont make dent.. And then you'll be left penniless and with no toy car. May as well be very slightly more penniless and keep the toy

    To sell or store?

    Moreover, what's it worth TO YOU. And will the few £k generated from selling an 11yr old Renault make a useful dent in your house saving plan? Do you have somewhere to store it? If so, may as well, because once you've sold it, it'll cost you a lot more to get it back again. You've done the work...

    Is there somewhere with a drive-thru swimming pool full of this stuff that I can just drive the MX5 through?

    iPhone pictionary is the new fad for me. A picture tells a thousand words... .especially if it's a crude, jagged line drawing.
