Welcome to Willie world;) Alloy refubs as Ben says are part of the Willie ownership!

Its tyre time for me again so I thought id see what everyone else likes and dislikes - Best dry weather tyre is what I want as I drive slow in the wet anyway! I put this thread in this forum so I would last a bit longer!! My favorite so far: Yokohama A539 My most Hated: Pirelli P600...

I dont know - I went for the willie for lower running costs but I would like either a Large Turbo Escort Cossie or a Evo 6 Makkinen. A Focus RS if they dropped in price enough. If I had to sell the willie today to save cash I would get a cheap Fiesta Turbo again, the thought of that cheap power...

LOL well with a CTR neither did the Japs;)

Loads of Octavia RSs where I stay - understated but nice! My only reservation would be all the new VAG group cars ive driven ive have hated! Lack of feel and wooden steering - like my old Fiesta LOL. Im not saying the octavia is like that but the 1.8T A3, 130 GT Tdi Golf & Bora and a 1.8T Passat...

The Focus RS is under 20k I think - £19,995 or something & about £17 on import I think. The CTR looks nice from some angles but is very ugly from others! A bread van possibly!

Dashs new house! http://erc.qmuc.ac.uk/cliosport/file.php?image=cs_hut_large.jpg

I have just moved to Mongolia I hear houses are quite cheap there!

is it just a routine your used to? Feels like it at the mo!

Yeah im not good either - and ive got a GF - the main part of the probs methinks - im bored of everything at the mo:(

Hmm just the way put "Saxos are the new Novas! Apart from Craggys." I thought was funny - I like saxos - I dunno why your so touchy FFS!

Apart from Craggys. LOL

There is a 172 chart on the superchip site how real or accurate it is I dont know! http://www.superchips.co.uk/curves/cliosport.pdfhttp://www.superchips.co.uk/curves/cliosport.pdf

Leighs car!! http://erc.qmuc.ac.uk/cliosport/file.php?image=cs_leigh.jpg

Heres my Tescos quotes before deciding to get my Willie All - TPF&T (Including NCP & Legal) - tesco £693 1994 Escort RS Cosworth (Large Turbo) £621 1993 RX7...

I usually call loads of insurance companies at renewal time and you get this response from one or two of them. They really dont know about cars - a Willie is only group 15 now I think. But some will still have it on group 17+ Try insuring a Fiesta RS1800 the Valver equivalent - slower than a...

LOL Leigh im off to buy a 36" Monitor to see that pic;)

Not good Lou but if he hit you from the rear hes 100% wrong.

LOL I thought my eyes had gone funny!!

187 I thought I would try and get the average over 28!;)

The worst ive had so far in my Wiliie is 27.55mpg - almost all town driving and quite a few 30-70 and 40-100 runs aswell. I must be doing something wrong as my last car was 16-22mpg town driving!!

I may just keep my Willie completely std but I fancy a touch more power maybe just a de-cat is the way to go. I thought maybe of a de-cat, chip & panel filter to give a wee bit more.

I have to look in the bright side and im only 28 - cheap insurance £396 for a williams - I was also quoted under £600 for a Scoob Turbo and under £800 for a Escort Cosworth/Evo6;)

Cheers guys - I had it done on my last car but it was a turbo so it was worth while, so I was wondering about NA cars. If it raises the revs slightly I would make a big difference. Ill e-mail superchips!

Who knows - I was surprised that a Golf Gti would beat a CTR especially in a Jap mag. I didnt look at the 0-60s etc just the mini reviews at the end. It said it was and anniversary Gti but the times means it does seem more likely to be a R32.

Anyone worked out the average then?

I dont know im not insured so I drove off:D Im sure you can afford it;)

I dont have the mag anymore but the pic wasnt a R32 - It looked like a normal Golf Gti with large BBS alloys.

Err I have just crashed in a Black MK2 172 while reading this thread on my laptop;)
