How much does a good turbo conversion cost - i.e. one where all the complimentary mods are done? £3-5k??

In my opinion, on of the finest looking cars ever. While all your mates will be busy putting bonnet bulges/scoops and wide arches on their cars, you can sit back and relax. Oh and boy is it quick at 4500rpm!!! Probably makes the best induction roar available on a standard hot hatch, but is...

I remember when the duo first appeared - before the cheap insurance deals and 1.1s with the VTR/S bodykit. Basically, the VTR is the next XR2 and the VTS will be doomed to a future where no-one respects it or believes it can be fast. Thats a shame as the VTS and 106 GTi are one and the...

Nowadays the 5 Turbo boys seem to be more the enthusiast types - and are fairly clued up on what car youve got as a result. Id be surprised if he didnt have a few "select" mods, helping him to be a little quicker than a Willy on the straights. The standard GT Turbo was capable of 0-60 in...

As I say, hes the second owner - picked it up at 60k miles in 1997. Full service history since day one. Would be a bragain for anyone who wasnt afraid of the miles, though I have to admit that I would be a little nervous myself as I do 10-15k per annum. Its not for sale yet as I say, but...

I think that theres obvious truth in the whole Williams as an icon thing - but there werent exactly a load of homologation special hot hatches around back in 1993-1995! Ive raced a Williams and numerous 172s in my non-standard 16v. The Williams is better placed to take up the challenge, but...

If you look in the For Sale section, theres a bent Clio 1.4 RT for sale at £350. Surely that would give you the engine plus a mass of spare parts to help you keep your existing car in good shape. The car is in Cardiff and the guy (Alex, I know him) doesnt want to split any bits.

For anti roll bar mountings and an off-side cv gaiter - how much at a non-franchise garage?

Why is your Valver sick? Do you think that showing it £450 will perk it up a bit?

The sum of various factors such as grip, body control and predictability - that culminate (with the right hands) in an intangible sense, or reality, of superior varied road conditions ability. The best handling cars Ive driven allow me to cover my favourite Welsh roads with that other...

Fantastic colour choice. Go for some black alloys.

Lofty - Im going to be back in Bristol on and off for the next few weeks, then back for good in october. Youll have to come over and see the car when its parked with mine. We park them both in our compound with big gates at the back of the flat - it looks really nice to see two 16vs together...

No Im not buying it Merely sounding out what sort of price he should be asking.

I know its not flame red, but I didnt want to leave it at "red" - as one of our less familiar friends might have thought it was a metallic red (not available on Phase Ones as we know). Its the brighter of the two flat reds.

Boo hoo I thought you were getting a V6 Clio too from the title. Who did you sell the Willy to - nice bloke who will care for it?

Am back in Wales now - home sweet home, the Land of My Fathers, how green is my valley...erm...better pipe down now! Yes, the best thing about being home is not having to dodge the pot holes (craters) that Edinburgh is littered with. I celebrated arriving home today by finding my favourite...
