^not so keen on that, those wheels dont work on a mk1 imo. aside from that, very nice indeed.

those plastic things u see round the windows of 4x4's?? not for me thanks, lol.

yeah u were bent over and shafted there, i brough mine privately exactly a year ago, 21k on the clock and paid £6500 for it.

star city meet? hadnt heard of it, lol.

tasty as hell, very nice mate!

ive got exalto 2s on the front and i really cant fault them. the goodyear eagle f1's are supposed to be very good too. contisports are superb in the wet but not quite as good as the PE2's in the dry.

doesnt look too bad at all tbh, i usually hate modded cars too. Not overly keen on the back end mind. Good effort though. with regard to selling, steviet knows what hes on about, hold out for sum1 who really likes it. if u put it in autotrader or sumthing ull get peanuts for it.

fairly keen? u mean hammering the bollock5 off it?

ive driven one, and seen 3 on the road. once the price starts to come down and they begin bleeding into the 2nd hand market they'll become more common. They dont appeal to alot of normal drivers and at that price even less so. Once they can be had for inside 10k on the used market, i rekon we'll...

charcoal filter? whats that?

you can claim but you have to be very careful about how you word it. insurers are getting more and more hot on this 'fronting' business now. I personally wudnt risk it cuz if u smash it up, and the insurers refuse to pay out, ur up the kybosh, minus any preverbial paddle.

defo get the skirts. i had those wheels on my old ph2mk1 and it really does need to be lowered to pull it off, wish id had it done on my old one:

:lolup:that made me chuckle. I was wondering where this hell this thread had come bk from, lol.

absolute class, love this car, just looks fast!

yeah, cumon, lets hug, in manly embrace.

the splitter is actually and aerodynamic aid, it restricts the amount of air flowing under the car, hence making a low pressure area under the car, which is better for downforce, keeps the front end planted. exactly how much difference this makes in reality is anyones guess, but the theory is...

yeah was gonna them figures looked a bit off, too much of a gap there.

most people think they are gay, then they stfu when u take them out in an RS.

do you? must be cuz mine doesnt have a splitter, i havnt seen any action in months, lol.

turn the radio off, and give it some welly, they sound pretty beefy for a standard car, well, my 172 cup does anyway, but the 182 cant be that different.

see if u can track stromba down, he'll tell you about them :cool: on a serious note, from what i gather they are no more or less reliable than any other renault lump check for rust on the rear arches tho, thats a bit of a prob on the mk1's. as long as its been looked after properly 120k shudnt...

exactly.

not bad, nice to see summat different. (says the boy whos having his wheels done in anthracite next week, lol)

i think it looks really good like that tbh, nice and retro, quality example mate.

white looks quality imo.

looks absolutely stunning mate, nice1!

yeah, just buy the one u want i guess. on a side note, the 36k service on a cup is cheaper due to lack of aircon, hehe.

lmao! i really hadnt looked at it like that.

its more to do with how lose the engine is i think, u can drive for 2 hours but if u havnt opened it up much itll come on early. as u really rev it it will let u get further and further into the rev range, mine does anyway.

i know what u mean, hopefully the new server will fix things. mayeb alcantara is better than cloth then, lol.
