    What are the symptoms of a ball joint going? Would it make the wheel sit back further than usual?

    172 Cup on recovery truck (M8 Harthill)

    Nice easy one this... it was me, my 2 week old rear wheel bearing decided to collapse at 60mph! Wheel nearly came off and I just managed not to spin it. Contacted the garage who did the work and they sent a mobile guy out to my house to look at it, bearing is gubbed, as is the disc, pads and...

    Black Ph1 172, Chapelhall (Sunday)

    Looked nice and clean. Not seen it about before, saying that i'm not up there much now that the missus has moved to Coatbridge with me. Her parents still live there. Never used to like the ph1's but when I get rid of the Cup I might pick one up as a 2nd car (or talk her into getting rid of her...

    Spotted in the Somerfield car park. Had a little yellow 'RS 172' badge under the Clio badge on the back.

    Clio RS 200, Selling like Hot Cakes??

    Never seen a 200 about, saying that not seen many 197's either. There are a more ST's and FRS's about there than any other 'sporty' car.

    Ghetto "Supercharger" idea...

    Did ProDrive not make an great anti lag system which was never put into full production too?

    Which V6

    I'd got Ph2 as the Ph1 sometimes looks like it has a 'special' face.

    Which should I buy?

    If you sign up to TalkPhotography, there is a boy on there who sells cheap Canon lenses which come with a full warranty. I'll try and find his name. Also you might get a nice decent 2nd hand camera on there for less. There is a boy selling a Nikon D80 for £225. EDIT: His name is Kerso, he does...

    182 Question... 200 parts

    Yep, 17's aren't the greatest on the mk2 anyway.

    1.6 16v VTS MPG worse than a 2.0 16v 172?

    I still think it's sh*t clutch control TBH. I've said it before, if my dads S40 with a 1.6 can pull away with no issues and excessive revving, a Clio can.

    1.6 16v VTS MPG worse than a 2.0 16v 172?

    I don't see how it's not possible. Don't need to work the engine as hard and can sit at lower RPM etc.

    What colour shall i get these re-furbed in?

    Still think 1.2's look best in black. If you are going to go wild why not Racing Blue or similar.

    Rb 182 stripes, Glasgow fort 2pm, trophy yesterday city centre 5pmish

    I got a flat tyre there about 2 weeks after I passed my test (going through that stage of driving anywhere for the sake of it). First time i'd ever changed a wheel and I did it like a F1 pit crew, was like something out of The Warriors. I could hear them all scuttling out f their holes to have a...
