Wow.

Re: i had skidded today and my front passenger wheel hit the curb then the back wheel Wow, just wow. You lost control of your car in a skid at 20mph? Were you advised to wear armbands when eating soup?

i like the dyno graphs that dont show WHP...

you did this a few weeks back and decided to keep the car because you couldnt get insured on anything else.

Iirc that's how correction factors work. Correction factors aren't needed IMO.

Most dynos can be altered to read harsh / generous. Bogg brothers did it for a laugh with Thorpeys vts'd Citroën ax. It ran and made 380hp at the wheels on a standard engine....... Flol, be very careful who you go to for a power run. I like to get to 3 readings from different RR's and take an...

I did this last year. I bought out of my remaining orange contract and I got my iPhone 4 on Vodafone and ne'er looked back. It cost me£100 ish to buy out of orange and it was pretty straight forward tbh. Then It was a told up between O2 and Vodafone for the iPhone. I went with Vodafone because...

Anyone? I really don't want to folk out £40 for a new airbox just for the screws in it.

i didnt know which section to put this in but i have a couple of air box screws missing from my 182. cliospares dont sell them separate and the dealers want me to buy a full airbox. can you get the airbox screws separate? if so where from?

looks mint tbf

258 at the wheels is alot. Nice one bud, I bet that's a nippy motor!

what did it make at the wheels bud? looks like a decent spec you have there

I have spent £2500 on parts and labour in 10 weeks over ownership.

should of made your own our of universal exhaust mounts for £14

TBH mate, if fred did ever do anything like this im pretty certain he would rectify the fault if there was one. thats why he tests the cars and offers 12 months warranty on the jobs he does and tests. im not saying fred has ever made a mistake but thats what warranty is for. thats why i did a...

Yes buddy, he has made a royal hash of it. The timing is still out and now there is an air leak that they can not find! I haven't been round since, just left them too it. They give me head ache.

Exactly buddy, I have found that there is a link between intelligence and what someone is willing to pay. Hence why my father Inlaw has just timed his 182 up himself and messed it up. All because he has a lower IQ and he was not willing to pay for the job doing properly. There response to me...

Just buy bodies and have done with it.

I remember you saying Fred. By rights you could charge more. (and probably should) Before I forget chief, that invoice would be nice ;)

You know what your work is worth. As a trader you also have to do a job to ahigh standard of quality with amsmile on your face making a profit. That's what all us self employed folk do. The traders on Clio sport do the job and do it right. As a customer wouldn't you rather pay that little bit...

Which ever comes first!

The price is what it is. No point contesting it. It is what it is and you get what you pay for. I spent £700+ at freds the other week. It was worth every penny. My timing is now right and I had a big service including plugs etc. Ill be spending it again in 32,000 miles time too.

same tbh lol

nah bud, i was in a silver 2009 transit driving the opposite way when i seen you.

i wasnt in the 182 buddy, i was in my transit

Trophy (Feirny?) spotted at about 16:35 queuing on the A365 towards doncaster at the roundabout for the A1.

Good lord that's worse than mine!

I bought some universal ones of e bay for my v maxx and they worked fine.

I'll be there assuming my 182 is not in pieces as usual. And it has tax on it.

I need to get rid of the brakes the previous owner of my car has fitted. They have been painted bright yellow and fitted dimpled and grooved discs. They need changing quick time. I too am looking at new discs and some braided hoses with some decent brake fluid. From reading this thread I know...
