Because you wouldn't track, race or drive your car hard, and also have a very strong passion for music just like me :) LOL and LOL And your right, nothing really. I think I just specified that cause I want a 172 next. It goes for any Mk2 Ph2 though I guess, probably Ph1 too however I've...

Do you chaps also have sound systems? I can't see how it's possible with an audio setup! I've got my amp screwed onto the back of my sub box, and it's snug tightly in on the far right of the boot at a right angle side on, if that makes sense, leaving maximum amount of room in theory for boot...

You old boys with a 1*2, do any of you play golf? Thought occurred to me recently. I can't fit my golf bag in the boot of my 1.6 :( I think even if I didn't have a 12" sub with amp in the back, there's no way it would fit! Say I pick a mate up, and both of us wanna’ take our golf bags, it...

No brighter than a standard Xenon headlamp? I don't wanna' be blinding people with my sidelights :rasp: Cheers.

Oh? I don't want bright bright, just the equivalent to the halogen side lights but as strong in an LED? Ta, Pete.

Thanks Brian. They look completely different, as long as they serve the same purpose, look similar and will be slightly brighter then it's a winner? Pete.

Hey guys, As my 1.6 16v has Xenon's headlights, I decided to change the sidelights so I've not got an orange'y glow next to the nice crisp white beem. I Purchased these bulbs...

Ello mate, Well precisely that really. Which Clio, Golf, MG ZR and Audi A3 models come with rear elec’ windows, spare steelie so on... I probably will want to look it up on other models tbh, is there a resourceful site that does the rounds and I've just not found it? Thanks, Pete.

Hey Guys, Looking for a site that lists barebone specs if you like, such as whether a car has a spare tyre as standard, rear electric windows, Headlight washer jets, Automatic Deadlocks - those kind of more obscure specs etc. I usually use www.wisebuyers.co.uk however they don’t list these...

The wheels are stunning, but apart from that, I don't think think there was much point tbh. Good PS skills though.

How many miles has your 1.6 done if you don't mind me asking mate? Mines just short of 36k. I bought it with just 16800 on. I've done the difference in just over 9 months, and that’s mostly motorway miles, i.e. between 60-80mph etc... So it's definitely not a result of "hammering" and seems a...

I think "look at the car they are being modelled on" would be a good point to consider. Not for me I'm afraid... I've only ever been slightly interested by the plain black smoked ones, but then I realise it just looks tacky and more importantly, there's nothing wrong with the standard ones imo :)

Cheers edde + mini-valver. The short start thing isn't really the problem now. Just generally speaking when I start the car 9/10, it will dive right back down to below 1k revs and become almost idle, but not cut out despite sounding like it will. Only time it doesn't really do it is first...

Black 182 - A14 - About 8.10 Kettering'ish [Possibly black gold?!] Hope you were ok mate, you had a Fed Range Rover with the blues on parked up next to you. Was that for you I'm presuming? Was a lorry parked hundred yards down from you too, no damage on either that I could see? You were...

I am :) W'boro myself, you from Kett area? Love the Monaco blue with Trophies look, and the liquid is just stunning too. You boys get a day off or something then!? :p Cheers bud.

Is that the roundabout just off the A14 by Charlie Chawks outside Kettering? Went past about half an hour ago mate, didnt see any Renault love :(

Hi Guys, Three small minor glitches with my Clio which has now just reached 36k. I bought it with just 18k on the clock, so it's done the next 18k in a lot shorter space of time over the last 9 months or so. It’s a 2003 plate 1.6 16v. Thoroughly impressed with it as a car, and has pretty much...

I've gotta admit that's the only 'bodykitted' car I've ever seen and actually liked. Real, real tidy effort man :) Rim's look brand new too. I think if the skirts were the same width all the way along without the cut-out they'd look even better, but it looks smart :cool:

Guys, Any of you old boys got this on PC as well? I'm mega addicted... Have been since I bought it. The good side is I've got a patch that enables you to play with Championship sides which is pretty ace, as Norwich, Derby, Preston etc etc... Accruate too. Anyone else got this on their PC with...

4x16 Anthracite OZ Ultraleggera's would look the dogs imo.

Ok bud, cheers. Only problem is will they replace it, with it being well after the 28 day return period? I don't hold out much hope. I've literally not actioned it and it's sat there because I'm lazy and don't like spending money ;) Thought it would be a straight connect up and away we go...

Reasonably confident mate. Obviously I can only go on the invoice sheet compared to the image on the website, and the product itself visually and product codes etc... Seems to match? The guy was adamant it wouldn't function. He even had it connected, and took me into the garage section where...

Is the satnav any good Mike - Looks great? Does it run on a TomTom map/software or similar, or is it like the one they put in Nissans, that eagle eye stuff? It's meant to be spot on, better than the standalone unit's on the market like TT and Navman etc...? Cheers, Pete.

LOL I'm lost.. Do you mean people tailgating mate, or people trying to break in on the principal you've got a system in there with the 182 being a rather nice sporty vehicle? If it's tailgating... Either leave a lot of room between you and the car infont of you so you've got extra braking time...

Hi bmh. I've had these a while now and looking at them on my bedroom floor reminded me to post about them - I got exactly those two parts, and took them to an audio place in Kettering after failing to get the controls working myself, despite it seeming simple enough. The guy that worked on it...

Are they turini's on the ignis sport? :S Lights look cool on the va va tbh. As JLO said, what setup are they? Cheers, Pete.

Agreed Sir Russ. Very smart, and partly why they look so sophisticated, whether it be a 1.2 or a V6. I've always wanted to tint my rear clusters [std ones only] but never got round to it. Imo, that's the only thing worth doing, but probably only looks good on red/blue/silver + black cars...

Very Str33t Y0.... Where's your ganga leef air freshener hanging from the rear view? ;)

Silvervisions + colour coding on the F+R bumpers will look dead smart mate. Like the rims. Whats handling like with them?

cgap, in similar situation as you mate, except I actually bought some average'ish tyres in a 185/55/15H and wish I had got different ones! Might ebay them and get some Toyo or Continental replacements. Why is there the risk of rubbing on a 195/50/15, have you lowered yours? Cheers, Pete.
