    Front tyre rubbing!

    mine was hitting the arch liners during 5mph mini roundabouts and bumper brackets during anything more than slow driving, fitted the bump stops that were missing and it cured it straight away. if running eibach springs its impossible for it to hit the bumper brackets if bump stops are there...

    Arnold Clark Grangemouth have no demo car planned, told me if I was seriously interested they could possibly source a 1.2 GT for me to test. told me its much the same but doesn't have launch control so wont do the 0-60 time of 4.2 seconds like the RS...... my mate went into Arnold Clark...

    Do Dealers Buy Modified Cars?

    I remember the 182 that was for sale about a year after they were released, the link popped up on here it had 15" dynamique wheels, 1.2 dynamique interior etc, someone must have swapped all the bits over then traded it in and the dealer didn't notice, was up for top money at the time. when I...

    Clio 1.2 16v vs 1.4 16v

    there is around 20nm of extra torque from the 1.4 16v over the 1.2 16v but the 1.6 16v then has a further 20nm of torque over the 1.4. I think what people are trying to say is that where you will notice a difference in a 1.4 16v, its not worth considering changing for, especially when the 1.6...

    Clio 1.2 16v vs 1.4 16v

    lol at the 1.4 beating 1.8 turbo civic things, is there even such thing as a turbo civic 1.8 thing? or do we just refer to vtec as turbo now since its another cool word? im with Dan@M.A.D, 1.4 never felt much different to a 1.2 too me, I had a 1.6 16v though and it felt better, be careful...

    Yes, it's a Dacia!

    I had one of these baby things to look after for a weekend and to get it in the back of my twingo I had to fold one of the rear seats down and pass it through the boot, was murder.
