    Someone explain power and tourqe

    OK, here's a good example. A London underground train has lots of torque, a bullet train has lots of power. The London Underground can accelerate very quickly to its top speed because of its torque, but it has little in the way of power so that top speed isn't very high, only 40-50mph for...

    Prick in Silver Clio Whitstable.

    Surely if it was her ex she'd recognise him/the car? Maybe she cut them up and didn't realise it? Sounds more likely. Any one of those actions on their own would be believable as just bellends bellending, but for someone to do all the above they'd have to be provoked somehow. Perhaps a case of...

    Someone explain power and tourqe

    Torque is the turning force the engine applies to the wheel. Power is torque, multiplied by RPM, divided by 5252 (which is a constant figure, please don't ask why)

    Brake lights

    I'll have to check but I think it's spring loaded, maybe the spring's snapped. MicKPM any ideas?

    Remote start fitting

    I wasn't talking about remote start.

    Remote start fitting

    I know full well why they have it, but to stop anyone else fitting it is a bit daft. The doors are locked so it's just as difficult to steal as the car without the engine running, plus the second you touch any of the controls it will cut out. I didn't know any car had runlock as standard...

    Remote start fitting

    But it's OK for the Police to install Runlock. :coffee:

    Spare wheel/Tyre weld?

    He had no reason to make it up. But just for you I've checked the AA's T's and C's.

    Show us your gauges!

    Someone has literally just sold one. They're rare but I can't think of anything which would suit dials better.

    Potential window switch location

    On the dash where the headlamp levelling panel is/used to be? I can't see how much of your interior is left as your project thread link in your profile doesn't work.

    Show us your gauges!

    Satnav dash and fit them where the screen would have been? Can't be too hard to knock up a half decent blank for the hole.

    Best rear wiper?

    The proper Renault one: Fits properly Blends in with the fairing on the wiper arm. Can handle the curve at the top of the window. Most of the copies/non OEM ones can't.

    [PC] Next Car Game

    When you're born, you play with your s**t. You buy toys, you play with more s**t. Then you get a console, which is slightly less s**t. Finally you end up in the rarified atmosphere of PC gaming and you don't even know what s**t looks like any more. Welcome to the Gamer Cake.

    Spare wheel/Tyre weld?

    If your car had a spare wheel, and you've taken it out, and you get a puncture, the nice man from the AA will not fix your car. If your car didn't have a spare from the factory, he will.

    Definitely standard. If that was a ported head I'd want my money back lol.

    so why a clio? whats peoples reasons for having one

    Value for money. 1.2 is good value for money vs a bus. 182 is good value for money vs a 1.2, and most other sub 5k cars. Caterham R500 is good value for money vs a 182. I can't afford the Caterham (or the 182) yet.
