Both good cars, I've driven pretty much all the RS clio's. I prefer the more 'raw' feel of the ph1 172, but I can see the appeal of the 197's, just not for me.

http://direct.tesco.com/q/R.203-1059.aspx Went for that in the end.

Keep the f1's. When I had 182 wheels on, the ride quality suffered a lot, stuck the F1's on, felt like a different car.

I'm going to have to pull out.

The tricolour

All those mods will need insuring as well, which adds to the cost. Plus the decat is an insurance voider.

The road training I did was useful on track, the track tuition was 90% only useful for track. These guys are good http://www.cadence.co.uk/

Driver training. Will make you quicker, and you'll enjoy the car far more than any of the other suggestions.

I've emailed him asking for pics. No way would they write that off for door damage!

Good stuff, must be a fit vee.

Bar the wheels, looks good.

Needs better seats ;)

Was it maual or auto? The manual should be quicker than a vee, 0-60 5.5, 1/4 mile 13.6.

Which fitment do I need for the front indicators?

Trophy's are great, I loved mine. Best standard car I've ever driven. I do prefer my 172 on AST's, but it is a slightly harsher ride (but you have a choice of springs). For 8k, you could get a great 172, AST's, and better seats than the Trophy. Thats where my money would go.

Got some resistors from maplin for deactivating the airbag light (after fitting new seats). There are 4 wires in total, 2 each seat. Do I fit 1 resistor per wire (so 4 in total) or 1 resistor per pair of wires (2in total). Cheers

Sneaky edit, well done. Looks good.

Good upgrade, just be careful to begin with in the wet. I'd love one, but would have to be as a 2nd car.

Your (scottish) opinion. The diesel Meg sport laps Bedford quicker than the 197cup (in Evo), so I fail to see how it would be close to the R26. When Autocar did the big test last year, "dropped the 197 with ease".

888's are great, sadly put mine on during the monsoon week, in the garage until spring.

Need some paintwork taking care of, anyone know anyone in birmingham/worcester? Guy I usually use will do a perfect job, but he's pricey.

Are you running 15's?

450 front 400 rear then, same as me.

Which springs are you running on the ast's?

Trophy was based on the 182cup, no xenons or climate.

What sort of costs would it be to have the same done as Burp?

Your opinion is uninformed. A renault driver, criticising the kudos of the Vauxhall badge? I'm amazed you can operate a computer, let alone muster the brain power to type (semi) readable sentences.

Iphone has a great UI, but not that many features. N95 8GB has much more features, but is )initially) a pain to use. I prefer the N95, but it's essential to update the software and rebrand it to get the most out of it.

Awesome, enjoy it. Best standard car I've ever owned.
