I've just checked my oil cap for you now Ian, mines milky too, caused by short journey's, which is all i've done lately. As I said to you before, he heating would be a major issue to me, it could be head gasket which would be expensive, heater matrix which would be expensive. Are the...

Tbh occupation is something that is easy to forget untill renewal time.

Don't understand this type of car tbh, fair play if you like it though. Is that the exhaust coming out of the side of the front bumper? That would be pretty cool if it wasn't a diesel and actually made a decent sound rather than just diesel rattle and shooting soot at passing padestrians....

Re: Mk1 Hybrid Project What are you going to do about a cat for mot time then? Use the origional cat you got with the hybrid? (well valver at the time) Or could you fabricate it so that you use a 182 cat?

there is one in this months evo, think its a DMS 118d and its 170bhp and tax band B. However if you have £23,000 to spend on a car, who is arsed about tax bands and mpg. Rather spend £20,000 on something quick and enjoyable to drive and spend the £3000 on the higher running costs. Oh and I...

You must be insane. Mondial Blue is a stunning colour. Silver cups just don't cut the mustard for me.

Does this mean that the centre box could be bought seperately and fitted at a later date if the client wasn't happy with the supersport noise. Also I don't mean to have a go at ktec or anything but the one ktec stealth (wihout centre boc) I have heard on a 172 sounded great in the car but from...

I'd always go to a clio specialist tbh, renault are idiots and thiefs I don't know how they get away with it.

I'd be keeping the standard wheels on a ph1 172, maybe refurbed a different colour. Standard wheels look great as long as its nice and low.

Great pics, I need to go to wales when I upgrade from my 1.2 Which car was better on the roads then the trophy or 197.

The bike is awsome. I've been pillion on a GSXR 750 it was mental. 148mph on the back of a bike is scary to say the least. Never felt speed like it tbh.

I'd try and get a little more of the meggy then go for it. Which model is it a standard 225?

Fair play to him. However I wouldn't buy my kid an M3 at 16 simply because if he crashed it and killed himself doing silly speeds i'd feel responsible. I'd buy them something like a 197 or what ever but not something with 414bhp.

Re: Mk1 Hybrid Project Good updates again jord. Have you painted every part on this car then? Good idea thought to protect any parts from rusting etc. Is your shell all 100% rust free?

I like it a lot mate. Looks good.

Such a good looking car. White 197 cups are stunning. However there is something about the 58 registration numbers i don't like, it realy bugs me but i don't know why.

Matched inlets are a good mod to any F4R engine. I don't know why renault didn't do it properly for a start?

If your over 21 yes. Not seen any day insure companies that will do under 21's.

The spark plugs in his dci.................... ;)

Looks like a good job. I wouldn't attempt it myself personally.

Realy nice car that mate. ITB's will be epic.

Good mods mate. You should make a vid of the BMC mate let us hear how it sounds. Every 1*2 i've been in has always had an exhaust as well as IK so the exhaust drowns out the IK.

Good idea that mate. Ensures your car will have FRSH aswell. Mini have been doing the TLC pack for ages, hence why 95% of mini's have FSH. The ones that don't will be extremely hard to sell because most do.

Thats a good idea actually. I think this project has lots of potential tbh.

Your mad. People like you make the world more interesting, wish i had the funds to undertake a project like this.

Good pics. Realy like the Z4MC's. Must be pretty nippy with 343bhp.

realy realy nice car this mate, perfect example of a modified cup.

Fantastic pictures mate. Car speaks for its self tbh.

Mint car mate. I'm not normally a euro fan tbh but this is a realy special car. Yellow tints FTW.

Gutted mate, with hindsight hitting the bin liner wouldn't have been a problem, however hindsight is a wonderful thing. Chin up mate, as you said would have been worse this time next week. You going to get another.
