Have owned this for about 3 months now. Paid 3.5k if anyone cares.:p 52k on it when bought. Great drive.
Owned a few performance cars in past. This is a 2nd car for me, main cars an Astra VXR Nurburgring.
Always owned performance cars, have had an impreza turbo, mini Cooper S r53, a mk2 golf...
Looks awesome Andy. My LY would suit a turbo I think. :)
Where you based? I'm guessing NE from Newcastle mentioned...
I'm south Wales :thumbdown:
Does diff need upgrading? I'd imagine extra power may effect handling in bends :)
Looks brilliant mate. :thumbup: :thumbup:
My wheels need a refurb and will definitely get them done in a similar colour, look good on the LY. Shade darker than standard looks great.
This turbo conversion looks tempting...... Wife would kill me I think though. Lol. :p

My headlights were terrible and have bugged me since buying the car so finally got around to fixing it.
As you can see their awful!!

All done by hand. I did 1200, then...
It was only for sale for one day, lol. Camarthenshire. South/West wales. I have unfortunately inherited a water leak (damp driver side carpet) which im trying to fix, but its hard to fix when your only home 1 day a week. Damn work. Can hear water sloshing (sounds like a bucket full)...
Hi. Ah cool. My Astras pretty standard. It has a tx FMIC fitted but is running standard boost pressure, so im assuming it hasnt been remapped. Prob get it remapped one day.
Astras a lovely looking car and sounds great, but its a boring, uninvolved drive. Clios more fun! Clios standard appart...
Hi all. New to the forum and Clio ownership. Bought myself a Liquid Yellow FF 182 with 55k miles on the clock.
Does have the lovely melty steering wheel, which wasnt to my taste, but a swift bit of sand paper has sorted the worst of it off!
Also own a VXR nurburgring edition too. Havent had...
