    Going to look at a 200 this afternoon

    Top of the checklist should be Recaros, IMO.

    Trophy Prices To Double ?

    Ones plastered in under seal are exempt from this IIRC.

    Trophy Prices To Double ?

    The 205 GTI took almost 25 years to really show an increase in value. And now you can buy a half decent example for not a lot of money. An average Escort RS Turbo increased much more in recent years than a 205. The Ford badge plays a big part in this.

    What do you use, now that adblocker has sold out?

    Can I get this for my TV?

    Pay-to-drive Racing?

    It doesn't sound so much that you can't afford it. It certainly sounds like you can't justify it. Plus you are thinking/talking about it too much. What you should do is get involved in a low cost form as Tony Hunter suggests. If you throw a couple of grand at it and realize its not for you...

    Is the Clio 197/200 a poor daily?

    I can see where you are coming from with the recaros. I make an effort to get in the car without intentionally brushing past the bolsters - and every time for a split second I think to myself 'easy does it'. I do feel the kangaroo and flat spot can be 'driven out' with a bit of thought/careful...

    Clio front disc torx bolts.

    Give your Mrs a hammer and ask her to hit the disc from the back, hard. Sorted.

    How To Turn Annoying Maps Thing Off?

    Map notifications appear to be on, and showing in the lock screen. Change the setting. You've obviously looked at a route and gone out of the app.

    iPhone 6S

    Yeah, I had the same. Filled a 4s 16gb, had around 20gb on my 32gb 5s (therefore would have had to get rid of some stuff) so didn't want to bother with a 16gb 6s. I've a few friends who have 16gb versions of either model and fill them easily. Yes I probably should back it up and clear the...

    iPhone 6S

    It's worth noting what capacity you are getting for these prices. Naturally the cheaper deals are for the 16gb version - which is you are new to the iPhone may not be sufficient enough. I don't keep music on my phone and with images and apps could easily fill a 16gb so went for the 64gb.

    iPhone 6S

    I believe (from what I read a while back) that as the phones get older, the battery percentage number becomes out of sync. My 5s used to die at 7% or drop from 7 to 1%. I pay £39.20 a month with Vodafone (£49 contract with 20% employee advantage discount) - on a 64gb model with just £69 down -...

    iPhone 6S

    Ordered a 'Spigen Capsule' case today. One of the better looking cases from what I saw online when having a search. Mine has got very hot on a couple of occasions, to the point it smells warm also. I lost several percent charge in a matter of minutes yesterday from watching a youtube video...

    197 engine into a 182

    It's been done. One chap who comes to mind, who would have given you oodles of info and advice is unfortunately banned.

    Has anyone got an indoor (soft) cover for their clio?

    I was looking at indoor covers last winter to bung on my 205. Didn't get round to it in the end and it wasn't actually THAT dusty when it came out. Quick wash and bobs your uncle. Plus it's nice to open the garage door and stare at your cars, naked.

    Rear high level brake light connection? (182 FF)

    Wrong. The Cup spoiler has a different brake light unit to the 172/base models

    Whats the shelf life of a 182 full cambelt kit /waterpump/dephaser etc

    Keep it out of the light in the box and you'll be fine. You're only talking a couple of years.

    Gearbox to chassis Earth strap - part number?

    I may have one somewhere which I can measure. If it was me, I'd just buy one of the ~25mm2 black cables they sell with ring terminals each end and bung that on.

    Gearbox to chassis Earth strap - part number?

    I'm sure halfords do a similar type. It's narrower from memory but should still do the job. They may list it on their website with a photograph

    Can i remove 182 oil filter without droppng oil

    I can appreciate where James is coming from. I once tackled a very very stubborn filter and the screwdriver eventually tore around the filter and left the base and a mangled mess of metal. Luckily it was just on an old block and I managed to chisel it off.

    iPhone 6S

    Despite not being bothered about upgrading for a couple of months or so - My local Vodafone store had a signboard stating they had stock so I popped in and picked up a 64gb Space Grey. I always go for that as I don't personally like the white fronts you get with the other colours and I always...

    Took delivery of an Huawei Honor 7 today!

    I meant the Huawei's in general. Only ever seen one and had it down as something you'd pick up in ASDA or similar for sub £100. I'm not trying to belittle them - that's just the generalisation I made. No doubt they are a half decent bit of kit that will in time promote themselves. I must say...

    That's actually more expensive than I ever 'thought' they were.
