yup, future chav wagon for sure, once crappy residuals make it cheap as chips second hand. You cant argue with its performance though or its Sound, that 5 cylinder is sweet, almost old school audi quattro. Clio will always suffer from a fairly low torque figure, compared with everything that is...
ST has silly Torque 320nm or something like that, on a track like the Ring it would have soo much more top end for the fast sections that the cup wouldn't get close.
Why not upgrade?? Because its not as quick?? 95% of the people who frequent this board will never take there car any where near a track and lets face it thats where you only get the full benefits of performance. TBH if i had the 182 that did 0-60 in 6,5 and the new one that did it in 6,9 but...
i agree with Blink, too much agro on here today. Its never gonna compete with the Golf Gti for one reason and one only. Its french and it hasn't got enough style and class ** wot wot** ;) To quote that dude from 5th gear Plato, "The golf Gti is the only hot hatch i would turn up to a fancy...
clart got mine for free cos i love him, if he sells it on ebay for 20 quid i'll skin him though.
Boot nets are very useful when attending places like the ring and y and the passenger have a helmet.pack lunch, on track and ring, everything should be nailed down or out of flying range, when you...
Come on sweetheart you knows its french, its bound to do that, LOL
TBH, first impressions weren''t great, but its growing on me 2, as someone who gets critised if his company car is too " racey" its nicely and subtly understated, classy, put it this way, if its looks mean it doesn't attract...
50 kms easy geezer from when the light comes on to when u should fill it up. thats 30+ miles in old money, and all calculated at my "dont pay for my own petrol" silly driving speeds.
Just wait till the chavs decide that latest cool plate to have is one in Arabic, theres been old school and german ones, i wonder how long it'll take before people are putting them on there car.lol
I wish i'd got my clio in that colour, its the best without a doubt.
LOL, I'd said i wouldn't, I doubt it would be over a 1000km's, If the hire car was brand new then for sure, i'd cane it, but if the golf is here, i'm gonna be doing 4 up taxi, laps at slow speeds. I'm passengering with you lot, friday, saturday, mazda is staying at the fcuking hotel, people will...
never fear my friend, i am going to see about hiring something a little more pokey than my 1.4 mazda, the Gti is scheduled for offical delivery on the 4th of May, i'm trying my best to get it brought forward for a week. I might call wolfsburg and tell them to get a move on. I'm not getting back...
even standard 172 seats i had to pull my drivers seat forward to get 4 in, all right for a trip to the cinema , but for up round the ring, in the same driving position as your mum, aint much fun, LOL I pull my seat forward at my own comfort's sacrifice, cos i'm kind and considerate, unlike Lee...
I cant wait to see you munchkin, I'm booked in at the hotel, only got the crappy mazda, dont think the Gti will be here :(:( My missus might be coming, wanna take her round the ring? be gentle with her though. ;)
listen to fred turn it off, also remove anything of comfort, anything electric, anything safety related, make sure yr car is hoovered, to remove the 2,46 grams of dust which may be located on yr carpetless floor, LOL
get used to driving with it off, on track its the only way to get used to teh cars true limits, and when cup driving chimps say yr not a real man cos you have traction control, tell em yoiu drive with it off,LOL :)
has saved me a number of times on wet dieselly slip roads, have been round the ring on a 9 min lap with it on for half the lap, didn't notice, to be honest i was that focused, LOL
Lifting off on roundabouts is no fun with it on, mines always off during the summer, secondary reaction like...
The vid is quite a good way to see the difference in em, cos they are both pulling from standstill, just about, to top speed and staying flat out for a good while. Both were two up, you'd have to put up with me yelling random stuff though, LOL Watch it and it will make you go buy a 330D Beemer...
