Erm....nah not sure mate to be honest, don't know many of the first years as don;t have much to do them anymore.
Although I'm not an apprentice anymore, just come out of my time last week, I'm now a qualified 'Configuration Engineer' who knows nothing at all!
Dunno, people seem to not like fun on here sometimes!
Erm, name doesn't ring a bell, but theres loads of them! Does he have a car?
I've got a shite memory though so probably wouldn't remember anyways!
Didn't jump straight to the 2.0 mate, but I see what you mean.
I know them very well though, and wouldn't do it with other cars around. Although considering it is my private road, there won't be any other cars on it!
the car could have gone faster, felt really composed
Yeah I know heanor a bit.
It wasn't 90mph around all of them, slowed down a bit for the first left-hander, spun my 1.2 on that corner before by accident!
I love the roads up there, all around Horsley and Smalley, very good fun!
It's downhill and you can see all of the road in front, so any obstructions are clear to be seen.
Boosh, I won't!
Staton, I'm from Spondon, not far away. You?
Wow!
Just been for a meal for my bro's birthday near my local private rally tracks that I haven't been down since getting the 182.....
Coming back with my sisters boyfriend in the car, and it was awesome! max speeds around the bends were 60-65mph in my PI Springed 1.2 16v Clio, and similar if...
Yeah if I remember mate I'll come for a drive.
They aren't cheap, but at the same time they aren't rip-off prices, and the quality of work is second to none in my opinion.
If you want to travel a bit for a bodyshop mate, Advanced Autobody, Sandown Road (off Ascot Drive) in Derby.
Really, really good place, do loads of stars cars like all of Paul Daniels Astons etc, very proffesional too.
Plus in the week they work 24hrs, so won;t take too long.
Looks miles...
If I'm heading upto Warrington anytime soon to visit my sister and you've picked one up, I'll be ahppy to give you some pointers for an hour or so mate if that's any good to you?
I don't even have time to PC my own car, let alone do someone elses!
complain to them. Take some pics showing the problem and try to get them to either send more of foot the bill.
Not fit for purpose comes into mind, definately worth trying.
Thanks :D
Cheers Warren, I'll get it done with the tyres, then the car should be spot on, until payday when I need new pads all round!
I love this car but it isn't cheap to own!
They have already been run on a car for about 1k miles, so I don't reckon they will go much lower, but I'm really happy with them.
Was gonna get the tracking done when I get 2 new tyres on tomorrow afternoon, will it make any difference to it leaving it longer even though the springs are...
Now I have the sportlines on after a bit of messing about, I can notice a subtle difference, feels a bit better on the road too, whoop whoop!

Nice one mate, what colour?
I picked mine up on Thursday last week, 05 plate in silver with 35k miles.
I love it to bits!
Out of interest, what did you pay for it, just to compare to mine? PM me if you don't want it public.
By the way, get a pug 307 splitter, £35 and flexible so you'll be...
I am very, very interested in a pair of these if all goes well.
My thumb grips aren't torn at the minute but I can see it coming. Can you pm me if they go into production please?!
Yeah I'm going at 1.30 to get them to crack them off so i can do it all at home.
Gonna do the backs now though, so just the fronts to do this afternoon.
