Having just read this I'm glad I've asked the dealer to drop me a couple of rears in before I collect it. I just had visions of me breaking bits of trim and not getting it back on properly.

Common on 182s. Mine went after 18k. They leaked dry which obviously gave them no damping at all. I traded the car in and left the garage to replace them. The rear end pogos around if the dampers have failed. If you knew something wasn't right at the rear you shouldn't have been driving it...

Yes, drove Wayne and Kaths when they had it, and Jeremy let me borrow his liquid one at the WSR a couple of years back when I needed to pop home for a change of clothes. Oh and I drove Steves Mk1 V6.

To get a reaction out of you. :rasp: It's not even sport anymore. Aren't forums for c**k waving these days? lol Which CPU did you go for David? Unfortunately I'm not able to take the piss like the dev staff on PC spec. Plus I've not been paying much attention to what's good at a sensible...

Not my trusty old home PC, but my work PC. As I only ever really use it to surf and do email I don't get upgrades that often, so my old Athlon FX 60 with 4gb of RAM and an nvidia 8800GTX is getting a bit long in the tooth. Thanks to a friend at nvidia I've just had two new nForce 680Sli...

Mine isn't. It's already sold. The new owner collects it next Friday.

No, just standard headlamps.

You can but you need to drill and attach fixing points to the sub frame and use the rear belt mounting points underneath the rear seats. That's how I've seen it done in a Trophy before. I'd never want a full harness for the road. Going anywhere in y0z2a's Cup when it was used all the time as...

Oi Dan ya cheeky sod, I've not even been down there to buy a burger in years let alone do anything else down there.

I over slept today so I was actually realy late.:o I probably won't do anything to it. I've not bothered since the 172, and all that got was a cup splitter and a Magnex exhaust system. I'll probably only keep the Cup 12 - 18 months. You doing much to yours?

I'm in Cannock. K, I've told you. I won't be finding the future Mrs M on here. She works in the office next door, well at leats until we take over this entire floor in March.

Urrrg, the silver wing mirrors do look nasty against white. Still, those few bits are easily sorted. You might even find someone who will do a straight swap with you. I think they're also part of the lux pack. I purchased a 172 from Motorpoint in 2003 for cash. I traded it in 15 months...

Every morning when I park it up at work and the car park is empty I always turn and look. It still looks the b****cks to me.

Sounds great Catherine. What does the satin pack consist of?

I've got a CTR one at the moment, but reckon I'll order one of those for the Cup. Much nicer IMO.

They aren't gloss on the 197 Cup, they are satin. That's not matt, but it's not a full gloss. It's the sort of finish you have on white doors in the home. Not to shiny but not dull.

It's true. I've not been near one all year. lol And it's staying that way.

With an interest in Clios, who use these forums.

I told you, I've given up on that sort of stuff these days.

Where in the West Mids are you? I work in Brum.

Welcome to CS Tammie. You missed a Midlands meet at the weekend. We went go karting Sunday afternoon.

The car on the right is a Cup race car.

I used it a couple of weekends ago. It's amazing when it rains, but when I have to wipe the screen because of spray it smears really badly. I did forget to clean the wiper blades so it may be that!! My old man has it on his windscreen and it works perfectly.

Sounds about right for the tyres there. They quoted me £120 each when I had to buy one when I got a puncture. Costco do them for £86 each fitted.

I'll send you a PM mate.

Does anyone know why you can't get direct replacements for the standard system made by other companies? Do Renault prohibit it? In the past I've always had other systems put on cars by Kwik Fit etc. Renault charge an arm and a leg for the OE system. Luckily I never have a car long enough to...

Not officially. They are only available on the FF 197. I'm sure with a bit of arm twisting it could be sorted though.

Usual place this morning. You won't see me the next couple of days. I usually go much earlier and go to the gym before work. I slept in today though.
