Thread disappoints with lack of nostalgic adverts. So, I'm here to resolve

Found the driving shoes to compliment...

Frankly, sporty Clios aren't made for grand touring. Every option mooted so far will cost more than just getting, I dunno, a Golf V Tdi, with cruise, climate and leather. It might have interstellar mileage, but it'll cost 1/2 the fuel and you can treat it to all the cheapest pattern parts if it...

Anything is better than the normal 1*2 seats, so Clio-blinkered people see them as being worth more than gold.

That ^ 2.5k will buy a diesel barge that will be much cheaper to run, and then you can keep the Clio as you want it for non-commuting use.

More like a boiling kettle IIRC

I'd rather have ebola, but no doubting that it's a laugh a second to boot about :)

looks like a good turnout. If only it hadn't been -5 and rolling fog I'd have been there :(

There you go then chap. Good luck with it! There's nothing chavvy about having bass, per se. But rumbling down a high street on a Saturday afternoon, or up and down estates late at night....that's where subs get the reputation. Without wanting to rain on you parade, you may find that your new...

All valid questions sir. The crossover will shove the majority of the wattage into the woofers, as they need as much as they can get. Tweeters only need a blim of power in comparison, for this reason they don't tend to have big meaty wires. In honesty, if your speakers are rated to handle the...

In my old 172, the switch that set limiter / cruise control was a fickle sod. But since you're getting the SET command up, Sounds more like the buttons aren't playing nicely. For cruise, try using the + button, that should set a speed. Of course, you cant set cruise at lower than....errrr...

Skype, to a dash cam? Stick a blow up doll in the pass. seat with a fetching red wig on, dressed appropriately. Actually! How about, you do a 2hr lesson, they drive you down, do a load of bay parking and j-turn practice for their test at the airfield, then, I dunno, their mum picks em up?

If you're only virtually working, you can use my iPad as a wi-fi connection and work from the cafe?

I can't imagine people will notice the shock colours. Hell, my pwitty yellow billies are completely lost. Rear ARB will help you get the nose in, front will only give you even more lovely plough-ever-onwards. What is it you're actually trying to achieve? Because if it's turning the Volvo into a...

You could probably get good results from uprated roll bars to be fair. There's more to suspension that dampers and springs

There is no law that says this. Sleeper effect would be to stiffen up at standard ride height. :smile: That said, would anyone notice a 15mm dreop, probably not. If you can get the T5 R-design suspension then you could be onto something, although it'll still be a Volvo, not a polestar, so don't...

If they go any other colour than Factory, OEM silver, then you may as well just start hanging hello kitty from your back bumper. And Monster stickers on the wing mirrors

I'll check that it's still there, but sure. But, really, they aren't much cop.

This amp? 10awg from amp to crossover. May as well use existing wires from x-over to cones.

Walk away. Terrible, unstable things. That's all I ever found with them anyway. I've still gota MK9200i in the box which I dont think will ever be used. They're that bad. However, THIS is superb

Maybe

I replaced Listerine's old and tired coilovers with used Bilsteins from a later model with 1/3 the mileage. Absolutely no drop in height but a marked improvement in handling and ride. But therein lies the rub, what's important, making it round corners or looking like a badman down da hi street.

Each to their own, but I prefer to walk away from my car without a limp.

Meh.

Volvo hero. <3

have a search for "1.2 eibach" or "1.2 apex" or "replica springs" or similar. There's plenty of content on here with those pics. As for "just get coilieeessss", well, yeah, but they'll cost 30% of the entire value of the car for ones that wont smash your spine in half at the sight of a peddle...

mint. remove chavzorst and it's spot on.

chop a coil off at each corner. voila, instant ride height reduction and OEM damping.

It's each to their own fella.

I'd say that the Williams wheels are little too old-fashioned in style for a Ph.2 Maybe on a Ph.1 they'd work, but the more angular facelift of a 182 doesn't help it....IMO. Enkeis? ;)
