Thats what i thought.... seems its not the case, mum spoke to the manager & he said the same - t***s:mad:, so what should she say to them? Insurance companys take the piss :dapprove:

I would keep the Cup... sod wasting all that money for some thing that in real terms is going to be hardly any diffrent to what you have

Well my younger brother passed his driving test today, So gongrats to him :cool: But bad news follows.. Basically he went out practicing with our mum on his provisonal licence for a few months so they started a new policy as my mum has two cars & doesnt use the other untill a few months ago...

Was a good little meet, good bit of chit chat & a little driving, well atleast on the way home any way lol well done for getting some pics up ;) my car looks clean :approve: James

If it was me i would keep it silver, looks tidy/grown up.. where as the green looks funky & diffrent but to 99% people on the roads the'll think your colour blind lol Good price on the wheels, mine came free with the car :approve:

Have heard good things about the K-tec Uprated one, Its ment to feel alot firmer adding a solid feeling to the car in return for a little idle vibration, not tried one my self but is on my wish list for a group buy if it ever occurs

kie1an, Sad to see you have lost faith, but like your know your self, its aint cheap which is why mines running behind, cant spend every penny on the cars.. all though i tend too :o Dont think the C2 Vtr's a bad choice, not my fav but my next car is not going to be a Clio, although i will...

Hi, As you have been told the pro's & con's by most it might be worth you having a look through the project threads, as you'll see most change the seats, i felt better seats gave a better improvment to coilovers :quiet:, you can have upto 180+bhp for £400-£800 depending on if you buy parts new...

Thanks for the input guys, LOL at your method burp, managed to get one off the normal way & the other one i spent half an hour with a junior hacksaw lol.. all good now ;)

Cup spoiler all day long.. that one in the pic looks true chav :dead:

The only diffrence is the 182 manifold as its a 4-2-1 where as the PH1 & PH2 172's are all 4-1

Not always the case but from what i've seen at rolling road days, clio's with less than 30k on them seem to be under powered in comparison, mine feels even better with another 11k on it since i bought it

175-185bhp if its been looked after & has done more than 30k at a guess

The TRUE reading is record at the wheels then depending if your car is FWD, RWD, 4WD they work out "roughly" how much trasmission loss.. belive FWD is around 18% not sure though

+1 You should still be happy with that though mate ;)

Well even with it being -5c out side today i went out to tackle the removal of the cat, have done 2 of these now & every time its been a piece of pish to remove & true c**t to refit untill today that is, some one has been in before me by the looks of things as the heads on the bolts have been...

148 @ the wheels 191 @ the fly.... that cant be right I made 184bhp at the fly & that was some thing like 151bhp @ the wheels

Mine needs doing bad.... saw the snow outside.... back to bed lol
