HA ha ha, what a tool. No one hurt I hope?

That it does! 28th looks OK for me at the moment...might even drag the Cup out for the night.

That looks mean as f***. Nothing wrong at all with 'just' 100 bhp if it's attached to a decent enough light-weight chassis :approve:

What, with this specific music track? I've had 5 of my vids pulled up over copyright issues but they've all allowed me to continue using the tracks and they plaster ads over the video. One one of them there's even an advert with a direct link to iTunes to buy the track I ripped off!!!

The Cup has its rear brake bias set at the factory, and the rear brake effort is very, very low. My Cup has done 120k miles, and the original rear pads lasted for more than 90k, that shows how little they do. As said above, the Cup has no ABS so with the forward weight balance, it is very...

17 varied cars, an empty runway, rain and sunshine and huge laughs. Most that were there get an appearance in this one.

Re: ***How much is my car worth?*** I've got everything...except the; power steering headlining steering wheel airbags parcelshelf radio speakers turinis working speedometer/trip computer foglights Hmmm, maybe not then.

They grow on you! As said, they're a proper driver's car, great feedback, and a well controlled body for such a high stance. Cost wise....I only recently got mine below 40mpg over a whole tank but that did involve doing a day at the recent Airfield sprint.

http://www.carspecsdirectory.com/Porsche.htm Did he say how old/new it had to be and what gearbox it had to beat a Clio? Or does he insist they ALL do regardless?

Re: ***How much is my car worth?*** What if I put it back to standard? I could return everything to normal fairly easily except for the power-steering? I'm trying so hard not to, but the accountant in me says I should. Iggy has dulled the love affair somewhat.

Try this one...

Re: ***How much is my car worth?*** Hmmmmm, I thought that might be the case...very limited appeal I guess, even for such a fine, well performing example of the breed LOL

Re: ***How much is my car worth?*** LOL at CS history. I've not decided to sell it yet...it's just the mortgage is nearly gone now, and the Cup gets used less and less so I'm struggling to justify it costing £1,200 per annum before its even turned a wheel (MOT, VED, insurance, service)...

Re: ***How much is my car worth?*** Never thought I'd be posting in here, but; 172 Cup, 53 plate, 120k ish miles. I'm the only owner from new and have had it serviced every 6k miles - 1st couple of services were carried out by Mike at Linnington's Renault before he setup on his own as...

I love it all.

We were whupped by a diesel van ;) I blame Clarkie and his creative 'handicapping' LOL Great day, weather was good, banter was good, cars were good, track was good. What else is there to add? Graham in the Jag gets my vote for hero of the day!

It's a loose surface in places, but you're not following anyone so stone chips are non-existent. Worst you get is a side of the car covered in mud/dirt from going sideways so much. Bet £20 anyone could spend if they enjoy 'driving' as opposed to looking.

Black spoiler's nice.

Great to see it running after so long in the making. Unsurprising your traction issues...you need some nice wide flat fronts LOL

Re: New to Forum, just put deposit down on 172 Cup, please help with couple of questi They're genuinely good enough as they come. Body roll aplenty, but on standard springs/dampers you'll have a blast on track, very provokable but very forgiving. I'm on my 3rd set of standard...

Ditto all of the above. Except the windscreen ice thing, mine's never suffered.

I think I did all right getting just the fixed penalty. He was alright and dealt with the whole thing in under 5 minutes as he could see Emily was fast asleep. Served me right for poor housekeeping. Could have been a lot worse.

I got stopped with no MOT in our Focus - thought it was because my rear numberplate was starting to discolour and my jaw hit the floor when he told me I had no ticket. He commented on the four brand new Dunlops it was wearing and my youngest who was fast asleep in the back, gave me a fixed...

Grrrrrrrrrrrreat news it was found and you have it back!!!!! As above, mine went walkies after they broke into our house during working hours and nicked the keys...luckily it was discovered 0.5 mile away the next day...only it didn't have the keys in it. I ended up paying £385 for new...

1,000 kgs? Really?

There wasn't anything on the road out of the ordinary. Rain following an extended dry spell conspired to make the roads greasy/slippery. Have you never experienced this yourself? As for unlucky...unlucky that very little momentum carried him up a bank and allowed the car to slowly topple...

Why the f*** are you all still going on about this????? He admits he went too fast for the conditions. That is an extreme rare occurrence on Cliosport... he should be praised for admitting he's at fault and accepting there's something to learn from this experience instead of going on about how...

That's a bit nice.

It's not downgrading, it's called getting real, and with every day you delay you'll regret it more and more as what you'll get for your money property wise will be less, and less, and less...

I LOL at the comments on there. Of course everything is about 0-60, £s, and top speed innit. It's a lost cause trying to convince them otherwise, they'll never get it.
