RUBBISH! You'll soon want more power :) 'charged clio's are reasonably civilized, get a nice sensible exhaust system, keep your cat and it will be a more monster when it needs to be and nice a sensible when required!
Hero points for your mrs knowing what a supercharger is though!
That's it mate yes. Meet in the carpark on the left as you go in the entrance by pizza hut, on the right if you go in the entrance by virgin active; there will more space. It gets really busy because of orange Wednesdays.
I guess you don't know anywhere in Crawley really? Somewhere like cineworld would probably be best... Nice and easy for you to find. If you pm me your phone number then we can sort it out tomorrow.
Yeah, it set me back about £2500.... Smashed myself up pretty badly at penshurst on the 4x...

One rubber mallet, one socket and one vice. old bushes came out no problem at all.
Perhaps I was just lucky
If they've already been rebuilt by Godspeed, I'd go out and drive for a while. Use the brakes a bit, brake hard a few times, then let them cool and see if they're better. Not uncommon for brakes to bind a little bit once they've just been pit back together. Mine did.
Clio all day long. CTR's fetch silly money. Immaculate Clio + cash in your pocket or a tatty CTR. You'd have to be mental to buy the civic.
