    Ford Focus RS mk2

    main reason I've been looking at them next, either one of those or a Z4M coupe. I thought the RS would be cheaper to run though, just attracting the wrong attention that puts me off.

    Ford Focus RS mk2

    possibly my next car, and of course it would have to be in blue. Just not sure if it's a bit too shouty for me.

    Tyre age code

    Cheers, I only looked because even my lad noticed that it wasn’t to happy to stay in a straight line when accelerating. So I took it out in the rain yesterday and that was fun (it’s not much better in the dry). Will get them changed this week.

    Tyre age code

    Bugger, wonder if they are the original tyres that the car came with. Oh well, tyre shopping it is.

    Tyre age code

    Wonder if someone can confirm the age of some tyres. I think they are 2002!!!! My lad recently bought a 182 with two sets of wheels. We’ve sealed the tyre round so the best four are on the car. However the front of the car seams to pull left/right too much under acceleration. Some I thought...

    Sportscars in the Park Lotherton Hall Sept 23rd

    I went to this last year and while the location and the quality of cars there was good, I agree with @leeds_182 the amount of cars on show was the massive. The Porsche show there the other month was fecking huge, they were struggling to get them there were that many turned up.

    White (cosworth) Kangoo Doncaster

    For my sins I’ve just had to pay the Yorkshire outlet in Doncaster a visit. While there I saw a Kangoo sporting some large white alloys and big Brembo brakes. Then when driving past it, i saw it had a cosworth sticker on the back door. Now looking at its stance it could well have had rwd or 4wd...

    The Cars Spotted Appreciation Thread

    Other than colour that’s identical to my first car, a 2.0 GL. Same wheel trims as well, nothing like the huge tyre side walls on the 13” wheels. It did like to go sideways.

    479 mile PH2 V6.

    I went to a sports car show last year and there was a La Ferrari there with something daft like 68 miles on it.

    479 mile PH2 V6.

    Ideal for someone like this https://www.google.co.uk/amp/s/www.telegraph.co.uk/cars/classic/roger-dudding-classic-car-collection/amp/ http://www.studio434.co.uk I’m sure the full asking price wasn’t paid though.

    The Cars Spotted Appreciation Thread

    there was a grey MK1 Jag that went up the hill at Goodwood this year, I think it was sideways for 75% of the run.

    What would you do?

    What would you do?

    save the money and enjoy the Clio for a while, then if you still have itchy feet sell up and move onto something else. Meg 250's will probably soon be within budget. I certainly wouldn't put £5k into a 1*2 clio.

    Track Day - PAS failure

    @DSee how much was it to have a new pump fitted?

    Track Day - PAS failure

    what I do (and I'm no track day expert) is arrive at track, drop pressure anywhere from 5-10 psi below normal road pressures. Go out on track for a stint, usually 15-20 minutes. Come back in and check what they have risen to while they are still warm. I did an evening session last month and...

    Track Day - PAS failure

    I think the PAS failing is unlucky, was it making any noises before the tracj day. In prep for a track day I usually make sure the pads/discs have plenty of life in them and ensure the engine oil is fairly fresh. The only other thing I do is make sure the brake fluid is decent and has had a...

    MOT Issue - Headlight washer jets not working.. any ideas to fix/replace?

    wouldn't a xenon equipped car fail the test if it had blanks in lieu of washer jets?

    Filler flap rust fix

    POR-15 gets mentioned quite a bit on Cutters. No idea how you use it but our filler flap has rust too so will be looking into it pretty soon.

    Show us your 1*2 gear knobs

    Just bought a 182 and the gear knob is still the original one and needs replacing. Since they are a b**ch to get off I think this one will be cut off. Thinking of an OEM replacement, but unsure what else would suit the car.any one know the cost of an OEM knob? Is the phase 1 knob an...

    I’m £2,000 down, but

    out of interest how much did it cost to have the new clutch fitted.
