Drive my 172. Fall in love. Buy it. Marriage made in heaven.

Um, not really tbh! But then my 172 weighs a fraction over a ton, is on race pads with braided hoses etc. I notice the weight under heavy braking, I'd be surprised if it could out brake the 172 if I'm honest. I'll be getting it on the scales next time it's at Freds, but I wouldn't be surprised...

No pics, it's ugly lol. Spec wise it's just a basic 200. No cup packs, mainly because it was a cancelled order so I didn't have a choice. In all honesty I'm happy with the ride/handling balance. Having been in a meg with v3's and being massively impressed with the ride quality, that's the only...

Had it over a week now, put some miles under the wheels, mix of every road type possible! Very happy so far. Speed wise, it still feels tight, but not far off the pace of my prev ph1 172. The cabin and build is in a different league, penalty being a massive weight increase. Driving position is...

I think it's an illusion. The ground in the background slopes down to the left, but the ground the car is on is level.

Skoda job

They aren't supportive/light/low enough fella! Especially with the burns approach!

Went and tried some seats at the weekend. The pole positions are nice, very nice. But the 911 gt3 seats are the same price, and more comfortable, and lower. Will be ordering one soon.

Hmmmmm. Yellow seats in a red car? Plain old black seats would of been far better imo, the yellow looks a bit off for me.

Re: No Compromise ph1 ITB build (Fastcar, BTM, TDF, RS Fab) - ITB update p77 Opinions are like arseholes, we all have them! Imo the most subjective thing on any car is suspension setup. Such a personal thing, I enjoy a very loose/oversteer feel. I know lots of people that hate that! Shame you...

Re: No Compromise ph1 ITB build (Fastcar, BTM, TDF, RS Fab) - ITB update p77 Flol. I spent £1000+ on them. Then sold them, not from any bias, purely because they were shite. And the company providing them were shite. Then on removal, found that both height adjusters were snapped. I'm not...

Re: No Compromise ph1 ITB build (Fastcar, BTM, TDF, RS Fab) - ITB update p77 Tbf, the man's right lol.

Looks good! Sadly my car weighs more than a singularity, chasing power seems pointless. Otherwise I'd be paying a visit to tdf!

I'll be there, in my own car, stickered up to the brim! f**k tents, no back seats and an inflatable mattress in the back of the car.

I was going to ask actually! Lot lighter without the driver lol.

There's a switch on the brake pedal, that's most likely the problem.

I lol'd.

Shite. Plenty better for similar or less cash.

V3's.

So many good points, the chassis is so grippy and flat that you notice the (relative) lack of power more! But the engine has plenty of character (pop's etc). I'd have one over a FRS anyday.

Never been a fan of it on the 182, conversely I love it on the Meganes, just doesn;t suit the softer lines of the clio imo.

Are the pics doctored? Only your pics make inferno look acceptable.

I know plenty that have swapped on new gen bmw's. Nonhassle with pressure sensors, and it'll transform the ride. 1st thing I'd do with any car running runflats tbh, horrible things. There's a reason the m division refused to use them!

This. Let the early adopters iron out the issues for us.

I dream of torque:o

Like the 200 Uh oh.

The brodits block the vent on the mk3, pointless! Never understood the point of covering a vent??

Used one in the past, pretty flimsy.

What are people using? Used to have a mount screwed to the dash, but don't fancy drilling into a new car!
