It goes though petrol like a junkie in a smack factory so that's where all the money goes, plus I kind of like the crappy old Clio look, it's makes it all the more fun when it blasts away from someone in a much more expensive car.
That's a great shot, i've been toying with the idea of tinting my fogs, after seeing yours i'm definitely doing it, although my car looks like sh*t compared to yours.
Not really, some people take it off to save weight (not that it weighs that much), or to make oil changes easier, i'd say it's better to have one as if you do have a front end impact it protects your fuel rail from splitting and setting the car on fire, but people that run throttle bodies don't...

The HC's with Brembo pads is a good setup for a quick daily, but on track I destroyed the pads on my first lap, I braked hard for a chicane and two huge clouds of black dust came out the wheels and the peddle went down and down and down until it was almost on the floor, they're good pads just...
