    Hard wearing tyre

    as the yellow mans says, if you're going to do track days even irregularly then a set of cheap wheels with sticky track tyres would be a great solution.

    New tyres have transformed car.

    Front-drive car issues there fella, nothing unexpected. Short of constantly tri-podding around any given corner, nose-plowing is the default behaviour of the car. Even then, that loaded front is only going to take so much

    Performance Air filter?

    remove the hose to the left of the airbox and you get all the "benefits" of a panel filter, but with none of the fiscal outlay

    have you tried switching it off and on again?

    More expensive tyres are better? Well there's something none of us could ever have guessed ;)

    installing factory satnav

    it'd be quite expensive and time-consuming to do, as it'll need new dashboard parts as well as the screen etc. A single-DIN pop-out screen isn't going to be ideal as it'd obscure your heater controls, but it would be 900% less faff

    running a derv to the dregs in the bottom of the tank isn't the best idea is it? From what I've heard anyway

    Negotiating on Price (182)

    love how CS always juymps at "yeah, offer them a fiver lol", but the second it's a forum car up for sale everyone's "Mental ,it's worth at least £34257 on a bad day!!" Of course, it's rare that anyone actually makes an offer of that amount. Back to topic: as said, budget £600 for a belts...

    Going around in circles...

    I reckon I'll use a roundel to cover up the rust on the arches when it comes back. All non-scene MX5s go well on track. EDIT: oh, and at least Meganes are almost as hideous as an Ignis, even if they're not as childishly fun :)

    Anybody added sound dampening to the interior?

    No, it won't. It would take a concerted amount of effort and more than 4 sheets of the light stuff to make any difference. Unless you've dropped the rear seats and lost your parcel shelf, most of what you're hearing is from in front of the bulkhead, the floor and the wind&tyre noise (the last...

    Anybody added sound dampening to the interior?

    Of course it can be done and for a shopping-trolley daily, there are no downsides. Seats out, door cards off, carpets out 3/4 packs of this anywhere you can see metal. some of this in the door cavities. Then bolt it all back together again. Only problem is then you'll be able to better hear...

    Cities: Skylines

    What kind of PC power does it need to run this? And I mean "run" not "8fps chug". Yeah, but it does set it up for a number of expansion packs. CIties Skyline GTR Cities Skylines R33 Sities Scylynes JDM

    Cities: Skylines

    I saw LGR do a review on this last week (?). Yep, looks superb, but he mentions that there's not as many tools for monitoring traffic / polution and stuff. Is that right? I like to make sure that my cities 'work', even if it is just in sandbox mode. Does look lush though, I might have to stop...

    The Apple Watch Thread

    Pretty sure fitness regimes existed before the Apple Wertch. But you can bet every penny that a whole raft of apple-themes classes will spring up in FitBoxes everywhere. (Or any other gym full of poseurs who seem to confuse exercise with sport). I mean, FFS, Facebook already has enough posts of...

    Downforce / areodynamics

    I bet a Morris Traveller is the most motorsporty of car ever then. I can see the reason for using a thick, heavy lump of ply on your front bumper. Even if it generates absolutely no aero benefit, you'll have added "downforce" directly to the front end even at standstill. Except it goes by the...

    Should I come back?

    Seems he wants to get CS approval to turn in the Fiesta for a BMW that isn't emfwee. Chucked the DCi in there just to put people off the scent. So, back on topic. If the St is on finance, bin it off and get get something 1/2 decent and diesel with reduced overheads. If ST is owned outright...

    Those that hated the driving position what did you do next?

    Oh! Listerine barely cracks 30mpg, ever. fast or slow, rain or shine. But then cool cars burn more fuel. Like Corvettes or Veyrons.
