One tooth out on the cambelt change, it sounds like to me.

It don't make sense sending out August issues already when it's not even July yet.

Doesn't make sense breaking a perfectly good car just because the mileage is a bit high. Selling a Cup for £2k. is about right, someone will want a cheap Cup for trackdays or racing I'm sure. Stick it on the free sites first like Pistonheads, Cliosport, Renaultsport and see what the reaction...

Leave it a while then when it gets worse stip the front down, it's easy if you don't have a/c.

So which month's issue are we looking at?

^^^^^ +1 Thats the reason why. It can't be be anything else except the car car is lighter with a small amount of fuel onboard but very,very marginal.

I find French cars seem to be affected by parking dents more than any other Brand. Our Fabia and previous Golf never had any and the wife works in Tesco so the car is parked there every day. The previous Peugeots we had were peppered with dents from Tesco car parks. French cars definitly have...

195 are the originals and they are cheaper. Handling should be better on the 195's but others say they don't notice the difference, it would be very marginal. 205 Rolling radius is slightly more than 195, so again a tiny difference in your speedo reading. I can't see any advantage in the 205's...

Tricky one then, I would just wait until it becomes more obvious what is leaking. I can't suggest anything else.

It seems to be a mint Cup, but you never know till you see it, 18" Rims? Prepare to loose yer fillings. I would at least go and see it.

Are you saying the fan mounting has water marks on it? It's beginning to look like the rad leaking. Have you tried driving the car hard until it is really hot then stopping and quickly opening the bonnet to see leaks. Or disconnect the wiring to the rad sensor and leave it running, it will...

Theres no ideal way off storing it for 2 years. If you have 4 spare wheels that don't matter much use them and store your good uns.

:) Get a longer dipstick.

The OE manifold is already a performance part, so need to change it. Spend your hard earned on a holiday instead.

Not running a car for a couple of years is not a good idea but if you can't sell it I would - Not car cover it as it would discolour and scratch the paint with wind movement. Put all 4 corners on axle stands. Leave handbrake off. Wedge the clutch open, or that will stick, with a peice of wood...

You'll have to jack the front of the car up, put it on axlestands and run the engine so everything gets hot, then see where the water is coming from. Even when cold you should see some water stains where it is leaking.

:)I think his mate is off his "Rocker"

Anyone?

I weighed one of mine and come in at 14kilos with a new Toyo T1r 16" 195/45/16.

Water is not circulating your engine and radiator. Hot water circulates from the Thermostat bolted on the the gearbox end of the engine along the top hose, into the rad. out through the bottom hose and into the water pump then around the engine. A second cct. comes off the bottom hose and goes...
