IMO, silver vision indicator bulbs (15 quid ish)
white LED sidelight bulbs to get rid of them nasty yellow sidelights(7quid ish)
a cup front splitter - if you havent got one (50ish off here)
maybe cup rear spoiler - again if you havent got one (150'ish, 60ish for painting)
maybe lowering...
end of the day you get what you pay for.. i got some work done cheap'ish but it had all sank and cracked within a day or two, paint was all orange peel'y.. second attempt at fixing it came back worse. bill for repair from a competent bodyshop exceeded 2k
the thing is, the majority of the people are opportunists..
i.e. hope youve got a window/door open to break into, grab keys out of kitchen and do one..
if they cant find your keys many of them wont dare go upstairs.. what if your a profesional boxer person or something? they may be just as...
''with unless you find it hard to be insured on anything bigger''
it would probably cost more to insure a modified cammed chipped etc 1.2 than it would to insure a 1.6..
ah right..
ive only ever owned 2 cars both being french so im used to these kinda 'niggles'
but at the end of th e day.. we're not driving 25k+ cars here..
theyre sub15k pocket rockets with s**t loads of features for what they are.

but you shouldnt really be turning when on the sot should you? doesnt it f**k ya tyresup?
i put my mum and my sister on my insurance to bring it down
my mums drove it twice, both times drivign it home after dropping me off in town to go out on the p*ss
or instead of wasting the money, just save the money and buy a car that a) goes faster b)handles better c) had better interior d) has more features than a bbasemodel, etc.
i let me girlfriend dirve my 182 on this old airfield
it was pretty scary!
i ended up shouting at her telling her she cant drive and shes never gonna pass her test unless a miracle happens. lol
alot of it can be in the mind though, you pay 400 quid for a modification and you can imagine the increase.... i really dont rate superchips anyway personally..
i only get 37mpg at 70, and more like 33 at 80 :S
why would your MPG decrease??
my mates 1.2 clio the MPG went down drastically, and he had new plugs fitted and it was back to being good?
LOL
we have a loxam access hire Van that i sometimes have to drive at work to access lighting columns. lol
thats almost as high as the passenger seat..
if you roll up (leave it in gear and clutch out though) to traffic lights alot instead of driving up to them and braking your mpg will be a bit better.
also if your going downhill instead of putting yoru foot down and going faster, just ease off a bit and let the inertia come into it.. all...
