    The Cooper S (170bhp version) has 150 BHP per tonne but has 220NM of torque The Clio (172 non cup) has 166 BHP per tonne but only has 200NM of torque. Not much between them. The earlyer Cooper S had 163 BHP On a different note I much prefer the Coopers Whine to the Clios quite gritty noise...

    A clio for a first time driver... Help required

    Also depending on how much he can stretch to, all the Alfa 156s are quick and low insurance, the 1.6 is smallest and still does 0-60 in 10 you can pick them up £2.5k upwards.

    A clio for a first time driver... Help required

    Elephant. As hes a bit older surly his insurance should be much less than at 17. Im 6,4 with long legs and fit in the mk1 fine enough. Sure my head would scrape the roof if I sat bolt upright, but you never do when driving. Believe it or not pushing the seat forwards a bit can often be the...

    Mk1's are the best....

    They still look quite good imo, looking a bit boxy now, but there will come a day not too far away when suddenly they are way out of date. A bit like how we see the R5 now.

    Insurance Under 21’s Help

    I know its been said many times before, but When quoting with elephant put your parents in as other drivers and it nearly always brings the price down. They seem good enough for claiming, my mates in a middle of one at the moment. Seem the best for prices to me. Im 20 with 2 NCB, I have...

    best pic ive ever seen of my car

    Lol 115 (110 GPS) on the speedo is about as much as I can muster in my 8v. That was with a passenger and luggage though. Down a hill I admit.

    Selling my mk1 ph3...need advice

    Genrally mods wont put the price up, may even go down, I certainly know I avoid buying cars with non factory alloys ect as it can often mean its lead a "colourfull" lifestyle. I should think you could probably get a little more though. Try a grand and a bit.

    BMW 325 Quicker than a Cup

    Just saw this video and wondered do both cars look genuine speeds, ie cup going slow or 325 moddedd. The 325 by all rights should be slower than the cup but the vid says other wise?? http://www.silcs.co.uk/turbo/cliobmw.wmvU color=#006699http://www.silcs.co.uk/turbo/cliobmw.wmv/U Any videos...

    On of my mates has had the poineer with sat nav, and one has tom tom. I can confirm that the tom tom if far better as a sat nav unit. More features, better display, and better logic. The poineer once took my friend all the way to bristol in order to go from newquay to east grinstead (just...

    renault poor service (again)

    Fill in a Top Gear Survey, its one of the few ways the public can actually stick it to the manufactures and make them realise things like this are not acceptable. I think renaults were nearly all in the bottom 10 last year. The clio was in about 70th (out of 142) if IRC.

    Goodwood F.O.S Friday Pics (Not 56K)

    Did anyone see the Jag crash on the supercar run, I was right by the corner and he seemed to be doing a fair whack as he went in, pretty scary when just hay bails but they seemed to do the job. It was right under a camera so would love to see how he managed it.

    Radar Detectors

    Radar detectors are being made illegal. Laser ones are still ok though. My snooper uses Laser detectors to find mobile vans and policemen with the handheld ones. I think radar detectors let you know if a camera is live or not, and if the police are in a car whether they are looking at you. Thats...
