Pikey as f**k imo. Over on 197 net some people will not listen, as the early ones are due cambelts. I point them to the many threads on here, and the few on Clio Trophy. "Ah but they are £100 cheaper" No s**t! I await the 'my cars running rough' threads ;)
Boils my piss tbh
My old one,
Mods were H&R coilovers, Speedlines, Recaros black mirror covers, repainted calipers.
Current Cup (standard at the mo ;))
Got these to go on it,
Ah so that slight leak was that switch, think every mk2 I've had weeps from there.
Lol! Think they are going on in the next few weeks................. Trouble is, they handle ace as stock, slightly reluctent as it rides nice to. Only got em as they were a bargain!! Still, might be nice to...
60k fella
The new bullets, new wheel nuts (from demon tweeks) wheel refurb, and sprayed up calipers kept it fresh :)
Lol. Gave the engine a good degrease, pressure washed down (Watch the electrics lol). I then got some VHT. Whipped off the inlets, gave them a few coats, and whilst they were...
I dont get this MPG lark. CTR never comes in for this stick, and its barely faster~? And has similar if not worse MPG figures. Clapped out classic that will drink fuel, no ta
Its bloody cheap, imo, only done 20k!
Xenon equipped cars have headlight washers. There are two other clusters, black ones that look like Xenons but have no washers, or the Silver clusters like my white Cup above
Possibly! My only regret is never owning one :(
Anyway, imo 197 for everyday. I averaged around 27mpg in my old 06 plate 197, get around 30mpg in my 08 Cup (longer 5/6th help) Used to get around 36mpg out of my old 172 Cups.
You aint getting 15bhp from a remap and exhaust. I'd say you probably need it remapping again. Think the likes of RS tuning in Leeds will remap for reduced rate if you have one of their maps originally?
Also wonder if this goes back to the mk3's leaning the maps out over time.
There is some about. When i was on the look out last year i got the most standard example i could find. In the end i settled for one with low mileage/owners. However there were a few cosmetic issues (i'm uber fussy lol)
A few tweeks to the bodywork and wheels it ended up like this...
Dont bother with a decat. Standard item is very free flowing (think sports cat as standard). Decatting will induce a lovely flat spot around 2k ish. Very hard to map out too!
I'd stick with remap from RS tuning in Leeds or TDF if down south. An exhaust if need be. Be warned, the ktec units are...
Hmmm maybe i need to pay more attention to it. Usually wax one a month over a clean up with SRP/EPG. Tbf it does need a full clay/pc i just dont get the time :(
Hmmmmm. I'll probably plum for that again then. I wax every month over egp with what ever i have left which at the mo is Petes 53, or P21's lol. I'm not one to spend 100's on a wax really (dont see the point on a solid white?)
I know you boyz hate EGP, but I think its fine on White?
Its the...
