They are pretty looking cars. I pointed my friend in the direction of a red one last year. When he was chasing a derv Octavia vrs. He bought it. I always fancied one my self. But would always take an e91 over one. And not a diesel fan !!!

Can't wait to see the before and after on that seat. Keep up the good work.

Worth Keep in eyes peeled for cash back deals on Michelin. Got £100 back on prepaid card last year on 4 x ps4s. 3 years ago I got £50 on 2 x ps2. I ordered online from local dealer then got cash back leaflet in dealer. They seem to do a couple of times a year.

A neighbour took me out in his 140i a few months back. Auto. It just felt relentless in terms of acceleration, I have had some fast cars but I guess they all required work to make sure they were in right gear at right engine speed. Whether thats a subaru on boost or the m3 v8 above 6k. This...

Once you put the springs and spoiler on is it much different from cup pack? Stripes and some trendlines and it would be perfect.

Sorry if I missed It but is this a non cup car? You planning on putting stripes on it? I love the stripes on the RB.

Are the wheels a direct fit. Seen them for vw and Ford.

Very nice. Been after a ly 200 or r27 to partner my meg on and off for couple of years.

Miles? Sounds like it needs one of those talented bods on here to buy it cheap and do full resto on it.

I remember owning a white r26 and the wife had a white 197 cup. Back then I probably would have paid a premium for it. I even had the norev white r26 and r27 model set. So assume the white r27 was available in other countries.

Interesting car. Not sure if it would be worth much more. R27 has not really went up in value. But there is only one! Guess condition , history and mileage would be other additive factors.

Clearly not to detailers std. Been using collonite insulator wax for last few years. Does a pretty decent job. Don't know where I read that in first place?

I went through a couple of Meguirs within a month. Bloody mice kept eating them. Killed the mice and keep thd Mitt in the house now, lasted ages. Never wash it just rinse it out a couple of times after use. Never use in very dirty car always make sure heavy dirt blasted off or use an old...

MG Metro. First car. Shocking excuse for a car. Used to look for hills for high speed runs. Megane 275 cup-s in ly. Fully loaded. Awsome car. Loads in between.

I use them all. Some amazing stuff on forums with some great restoration threads. But equally there are some diy amateurs thtat like to just have a fiddle. I enjoy watching just being Hayden, but the other day he realised his knocking was suspension he had nof tightened From one of his mods.

My ideal dream was always a manta with a red top with may be 180 bhp.

Back in those days mods was about looking at small ads in the back of car magazines and phoning uk mail order. Borrowing parents credit card.

Back in period I ran a couple of opel manta s for 6 years. 1992 to 1998. At samd time my bro had mk1 gte astra. He replaced with an 88 16v gte astra. that was the 156 bhp red top. He then moved on to mk3 Gsi red top then ecotec. He did not really understand cars and just kept going newer. I...

That's it efb is just the enhanced normal tech. Europart are crazy. Get on there mailing list and they send you codes for 45 or 50% off every day. Hate to think what happens if you just rock up off the street into a store and let them empty your wallet.

You need to check out your battery type, my father in law has a 2016 fiesta with stop start. Does not use agm technology battery just an enhanced conventional tecnnology. I looked up europarts with reg to find out battery type. Whereas my meg has step start and is agm.

Nice box. Some people do things properly.

Ideally you jusg leave it on. Then the charger tops up as and when the battery drops. Obviously with the lead to the grill means the charger and the extension lead Still sitting outside in elements? I have one car in garage i leave on trickle. The other car I charge every couple of weeks on...

https://www.amazon.co.uk/dp/B00ADIHUVG/?tag=cliospnet01-21 This is 2.5m which seems like overkill. Get some able ties you can have it coming out anywhere. Under front bumper. They also do lead with indicator light red/amber/green. There is a Harry's garage where he talks abouf car storage. But...

You could of course get tyres delivered direct to refurbished.

I only replaced 2 tyres. Lucky had a spare set of wheels and an estate. 4 wheels with tyres + 2 tyres takes up a lot of space. That the other thing they charge you a premium if you give them car with wheels, cheaper if you just give them wheels.

Charger lead pretty short around 4 foot. Lead from terminals to charger comes with one that you can leave attached and thennplug to the charger. This is not very Long but you can buy longer ones and run to poke out of your grill, then you can charge without bonnet being open. It may be easier...

Just watch if you are going darker then you will need centre caps painted which is extra cost.

I used wheel works in crawley for some subaru wheels 4 years ago. Set of 4 in gold. Got new tyres fitted at same time that I bought from Camskill. Good way to save a bit if you are due tyres as saves on normal fitting costs. Still look as new. Although i take of clean and store over winter then...

I have used these before but look to be in lockdown. Previously have been good but last time was first time I ordered liquid yellow and that seemed very gloopy. Not sure if that is function of paint type. https://www.auto-paint.co.uk

Used a turtle wax headlight restorer on wife's 2005 blobeye sti. It is cheaper than the competitors at a tenner. Really impressed with results. Crystal clear. They were not that bad so only need polishing compound. Did not need to used sanding pads.
