Sadly you work in insurance and you're still wrong.
The car can be insured by somebody else as the policy holder who isn't the registered keeper, aslong as they have permission from the registered keeper to use the car. This only applies when there isnt any other policies running on the car as...
Hutchie and his father are the only ones to work on the engine, had the head off to replace 16 valves so I will leave it to yourself to decide where the fault lies. I wish people would just be honest though and accept responsibility for their actions
I heel and toe all the time of atleast give it a squirt of revs on downshifts to help the gearbox out.
Does anybody else cringe when they get in a car with someone else and as they approach a junction they dip the clutch about 50 yds away and slam it into 1st, no sympathy or knowledge :(.

Thanks again for bringing it down and being patient with time scales. Very nice colour once corrected.
I look forward to the planned refresh before fcs and get behind the plates/badges done
2118's = bounce it up a kerb by accident....drive off with no buckles lol. Very well re-inforced wheels but not something I would put on if performance was key.
I dont even think sportlines could save that, as for trophy suspension being comfortable.....not really but its absolutely brilliant...
Does Paul have your old bottom end? I was talking about buying one off him and he said he'd built a bottom end up and had just mapped it. Brilliant results, I'm keeping one of my bottom ends to get forged for 2012 charged plans
Just chill mate clio's are fun cars and the majority of us want to have fun in them. Granted the hartside trip was a bit faster paced than we'd of liked especially as I was co-pilot and didnt know where we were going. Although in kev's defence if you know the roads its hard to just crawl up them...

I'm looking to get the trophy re-alligned after I've fitted my Eibach camber bolts and adjustable top mounts.
Where is the best place to get it done in the U.K? I was also thinking about getting it corner weighted.
There is a place local to me who charge £100 but I have a friend with an...
