I keep bugger all on display in my car, its just the sad state of the country these days. No one wants to work and save up for nice things when crime pays well without the hassle.

Ive got this Comma alloy wheel cleaner, they look like new after using it. The spray part of the bottle is bust now so i just paint it on and wash it off. Sponge down and Bobs ya uncle.

Ive just spent all afternoon washing and waxing my car. Went down the town to get some money for tonight and stalled it twice on the way home lol.

^^^ agreed

Ive never had my fan come on let alone the temp get above halfway. Always thought you should check your oil on a cooled car on a level surface?

My rattle is doing my box in but I cant be bothered to get it sorted. Now its a year old will they still do it for free and will it cure it?

Just filled up tonight and squeezed 45litres of go-go juice in ther tank. Id done 319miles using 8.9gallons according to the comp. think that worked out to be about 36 to the gallon. Was quite inpressed as ive not done any long runs and usually stay at 80mph

I just use the cheap stuff and have got 325miles before the red light came on.

are the new extremes out yet? If so I think I saw one this week. In a nice kind of orangey red.

If that lot has given him 10-15bhp more then hes done well, looks nice mind.

Its totally illegal what hes done and you can get them well shafted for it, they take a very dim view on the whole act of selling pre reg cars before the three month ownership is up. My mate was a legal advisor to the motortrade and was telling me all about this practise a couple of week ago.

Ren not delivering!! Sounds like all the options with the Cup, hmmmn wonder where they went? Id stick with it and not get a bread van :o)

I like Evos but the thought of putting a tank full of fuel in every other day scares the sh!t out of me.

My mate had been running one for a year, ive kinda fallen for its good looks. i think the place he takes his is called powerfiat and a cambelt change is about 500 notes i think.

Loving that red, looks smart.

I would imagine it being a little tricky getting at the filter, arent there loads of air con pipes in the way? Can you get at it from underneath?

Well the running cost are going to be a bit more with the coop breaking exhaust manifolds every year and putting petrol in the beast is going to cost. Hope youre not having to turn around in tight spots because the turning circle is similar to an oil tanker. Handbrake boots split all too...

Id keep the diesel myself. If youre doing that kind of mileage a Cup would be totally piontless, ok youll get there in a more sportier fashion but it sounds like you made the right choice in the diesel for your needs. I went to Manchester from Northants last sunday and averaged 37mpg, mostly...

Contis are not too bad in the dry as they give you a bit of feed back, saying "oooh hang on a min were not getting much grip here back off the loud pedal". In the wet though, geeez, its spin city.

what makes me laugh is when people say its lumpy at idle speeds, what do they expect? You want something to go crazy at 4-5k revs or a silent pootle around town car?

its all hype.

£3.50! cheaper to go to Renault, and thats the first time thats ever been said :D

Going to Manchester tomorrow from Northants, itll be the Cups first long run really. Best ive had is 325 but could only refill it with 44litres.

My mate has a Focus 1.8 and hes getting 46mpg doing 80-90mph on a run. Its just a bit crap off of the line and wont take off in 2nd at all.

Me apart from spare wheel and a luggage net

worked mine out to be 33 to the gallon, cant really moan at that as i hardly do long distances.

Stopped buying that mag due to it only featuring Pugs. Best thing i ever saw int hat mag was some blokes Megane Coupe, bloody lovely car that was. But what really bugs me is that these people spend shed loads of cash getting a car they like looking fantastic then at the end of the feature they...

Well with the red light not quite on ive just got 325miles, which i was quite happy with.

If you like to get the Cup over 4k revs every now and again, dont expect 10k+ miles out of a set of tyres. Mine had done 6k and were down to the wear bars.
