Re: My Ultra Red 200. It's been photographed, documented, discussed, stroked, likely also had one knocked out over it already. It has not yet been driven. Sigh.

I'll move my hands more.

Re: My Ultra Red 200. Just go and get it FFS.

Nope. Just considering having a spare set of cup springs/dampers to throw on for each trackday. There's no way the cup setup would work or be bearable on my commute. So it's as simple as swapping springs and dampers...and that's it? Nice. First refusal on yours thankyou please.

How does the cup setup differ from non-cup? Is it just springs and dampers or is there more to it? Bolt spacing? Is it a straightforward swap?

I know someone with a white one so it's probably his.

Nice. My first ever day was there too...have a picture just like your main one above as a memento.

Looks good that, I like the black wheels myself.

Fiddling with volume/tone was my life back then. Had a list written with what settings I needed for each game to get it to work. Proper LOLs.

I think so, turn up at 0900, ask nicely and they might drop you somewhere like Gunwharf Quays to browse for the day, then come and get you once all is done. Either that or the local train station is 5 min walk away which would take you straight there.

If you're in Sussex, Rentech in Portsmouth is only a short drive away. Last cambelt change I had done on my Cup there by Mike & co. was only £265 all in (special offer). Yours will have aircon so won't be quite that cheap but will be much better value than taking it to any Renault dealer in...

I've run a couple of sets of DS2500, never been that impressed by them. Around Bedford they wilted miserably for me.

Really? I as good as melted the RedStuff in my Cup after two laps of Goodwood. They were never been the same since. Horrid pad!

Let me know in advance and I'll bring half the showroom contents for you to browse!

Woop.

Best colour is deep black. It's the only colour that hides the front end frog faced hideousness.

Manic Miner, Chuckie Egg, that is all. I lost weeks to just those two.

Nope. They spent 20 minutes strategically placing said lumps of wood in the hinge area and gently closing the door on them until they'd teased everything back to where it should be. I couldn't watch while they were doing it, so spent the time crawling over his mint old old old Lotus Elan. If...

2 blokes, 40 years of experience, 2 lumps of wood, some gentle persuasion and a £20 note later, it's fixed! Didn't think it would be that easy! :D

Who : MarkCup (Mark) Where : Middleton on Sea What : bog standard soft & stealthy 200

Oh yeah, good point. I forgot that you have to be able to drive to tell the difference. And most of us can't so know nothing.

Invaluable guide this. Should be stickied. No Clio RenaultSport is complete without one of these examples of automotive engineering magic. Apparently.

Fuel Log - for tracking how much your car actually costs you for real. App is pretty much perfect in every way. Torque - when coupled with a bluetooth OBD reader can read and clear ECU fault codes, and also log a multitude of engine data fields (rpm, coolant/oil temperature, speed, throttle...

If the RB 182 + stripes is seen in or around Fareham Reach it's still owned by the credit controller in my last job. He was selling it though, so if it has sold locally it might not be.

Gutted for you Hazza. Not surprised though, I put a crease in my Ignis boot polishing off residue after de-badging it. They are paper thin.

I couldn't agree more. It's almost as bad as people who refer to their car as "she" and "her". Urrrgh.

Nice choice!!!

Indeed it is. I covered over a week of commuting 242 miles, and it took 25.55 litres to brim my tank again. = 43.06 mpg

43mpg is doable or GTFO.

Amazing. The ability of some to ignore educated opinions of others is astounding. And FLOL at that 'straw' attached to two rubber bushes stiffening the rear up. Not a chance.
