Fluctuations in the time space continuum ;).

But my Clio is RWD ;) (at which point I know I'm going to get dumped on by J about the handling of the Vee blaa blaa blaa :rasp:).

Ahhh ... hadn't realized Kriss' old car was local now.

Hmmmm ... no Mk1 v6clio members in the local area spring to mind :S

#1 is the brake fluid level. As your pads wear the level falls to the point that it'll trigger the low level warning ie. the stop light when you corner. Simple to fix by topping up the reservoir that's under the bonnet on the right hand side to the back of the liner. #2 could be any number of...

Running on a mighty fixed 0.5Mbps service, and so happens I just speed tested it after upgrading my new router with an alternative open source firmware. Results were 499Kbps down and 234Kbps up. Is a corporate service though and so the contention is very low, and I see very predictable speeds...

Cool news mate :).

Absolute f**king s**t c**ts :mad:!!!!

I'm fairly certain it's the guy that I met in ASDA Fareham carpark a while back. He was involving in the sailing business IIRC. Wasn't a regular internet user tho' I still gave him details on v6clio.net ;).

Was it you that I was following today in Southampton? It was a Mk1 with an exhaust loud enough to drown out the sound of the Vee?

Exactly why I was sad to have missed you yesterday in person :(.

Popped down to West Witterings for a bit of body boarding with the kids yesterday afternoon. Sea was lovely, and waves were fair, and as we were all getting changed out of our wet suits etc. I noticed a Trophy, and then a black 182 and then ... Papped the following Was nice to catch up...

Maximum respect dude ... with cojones that large you'd beat almost anything round the twisties :cool:.

Woot woot ... finally I've been spotted after all these years :D. In fact the very reason I logged on to CS was to see if I had been :o. Thanks for the flash of the lights and the wave back Fletch123 :star:. I'd been up in CF filling up on V-Power which is has now snuck over £1 mark :mad:.

Ahhh ... if only my Vee hadn't been tucked up in my garage whilst I took the train to London.

Some excellent pictures there Rob :). It'd be a cool place to explore properly rather than just looking thru' the fence. I always wanted a TVR ... big engine small car and all that. However, friends who've owned them always found them a challenge ie. not a car you could rely on to start each...

So the dealer is willing to take your Cat D Vee in part-ex? They must be reaming you on the price (tho' I know you bought the Vee cheap)!

Yeh ... but the effort involved was really serious! It took days pulling very, very, very hard on the rear of the body shell to stretch the wheelbase the extra bit needed to match the V6 wheelbase :(.

Wheelbase on a real V6 is different to a normal one ... hence the rear wheels will never sit properly in the rear arches with a kit.

Embarrassingly slow with their 5.5s time to 60 ;). Glad you enjoyed it ... what I'd give for a nice sunny summertime drive now :).

I thought it was a real one ... but then I realised that the fuel filler was in the wrong place ;).

Way cool ... the car that started my love of mid-engined wide-arched small hatchbacks ... hence what I drive now :D. Normally aspirated as standard tho' ... no turbos. First prototypes ran Rover V8s with 2 cylinders chopped off literally! Engine design ultimately ended up in the Jaguar XJ220!

LOL ... no cropping necessary. When I took it I was careful to avoid showing the odorous presence of Northern Monkeyness in my car ;).

Ahhh ... so not this one then ...

Which FMD one Steve ;).

Taking advantage of Steve's thread ... a few from me ...

All explained here.

1. White16valver, not sure which day, 1 ticket 2. Al, not sure which day, 1 ticket 3. Gazeratti, not sure which day, 1 ticket 4. tim, unsure which day , 3 tickets 5. mr_merc, not sure which day if not both, 2 tickets 6. Day, both days, no ticket-someone give me some cheers 7. Rich, sunday...

Even if you get it sorted and it ends up in your favour as a "no fault" accident, Admiral group could well still penalize you. I was on the receiving end of a small shunt whilst queuing a couple of years back and altho' I was totally blameless and everything was settled quickly Admiral/Elephant...

Getting one of these halved the cleaning time for my Vee's alloys ... tho' you do tend to get sprayed in the face with filthy water using it :S.
