I didn't have a radio because racecar.

Not sure why this is news...don't all rechargeable batteries require a period of conditioning before they realise their full potential? Always thought it was standard practice with a new device/battery to run it through several complete charge/discharge cycles. My Samsung still lasts 3 days...

I liked the rattling/clanking when I had mine. Stopped as soon as they got up to temperature on track...seems to me that they expand and fill the calipers properly.

Just LOL

I'd be happy to have that parked on my drive. Very nice.

Beat 185 bhp and you've done better than me LOL! Having said that since I moved to super unleaded and have given it a few trackdays and 16k miles since i got it and the engine really seems to have come alive. Low 6s seems optimistic though?

LOL, thought so, I can picture it now.

I know, I mistakenly thought you'd been overly zealous with that delete key again.

Sorry. Wrong thread.

Wow, that didn't take long! Predictable edit Mr Revels. Is no one with an opinion that differs to your welcome in here?

LOL

Re: CLIO IV RS for 2013, Last news Got to admit, despite the 'box compromise...I'm warming to one. One of these or a GT86...hmmmm...

Generally speaking power gained is negligible, money wasted is not.

Woop! It lives again.

That looks like an actual toy car.

Or as said above, you could check/top up your brake fluid before you do this.

I love slammed/stanced cars...they really brighten up my day with the tears of actual laughter that inevitably ensue.

8 years on a cambelt that's meant to be changed at 5?! Makes me cringe thinking about driving that! What a joker to advertise that as FSH, then tells you to jog on at the thought of allowing £500 for the work. Sadly, he will end up selling it at that price to someone who's similarly clueless.

Re: iPhone 5. Pre-Orders 14/9. Ships 21/9. iOS6 Today @ 6PM That's brilliant but confusing that Apple would allow such an inaccuracy?!

Re: CLIO IV RS for 2013, Last news I think you do :approve:

Yup, if you yank it open quickly it senses the door is open just before the alarm is deactivated so beeps to let you know the car's been breached.

If it's 51-plate it's almost guaranteed to not be a Cup...I don't think they started being registered until 03 (although there may be the odd 52-plate Cup out there).

Doesn't sound like a Cup. Lots of insurance companies get them mixed up. What parts are you after? Almost all parts except what's already been mentioned above are identical for both models.

What reg is it? As yours has had colour and interior changes, the easiest way to tell is brake hard. If ABS kicks in = non-Cup, if you lock and slide = Cup.

Try www.vistaprint.co.uk Good prices and service - flip books start at 20 pages but they offer a 'custom' service so I'm sure you could spec one with less.

Fantastic video, what a race!

You make a fair point. How often has this forum seen the boast of owners giving their cars abuse as "it's still under warranty if anything goes wrong"? This is exactly why high owner number cars make me nervous. Always wondered why others don't consider this a risk when buying? Is it that...

Maybe it was a pre-registered car, so the first and only owner is actually shown as the 2nd on the V5? So he's truthfull in that it has had only one owner, but the V5 shows two registered keepers.

I've found throttle control is everything when the engine's just been fired up. Give it any kind of prod and you're off, bouncing down the road. Gently tickle it though, and you can pull away smoothly without issue.

Good work chaps, look forward to the video.
