guys and gals, keep the image sizes down... 2000 pixels really aren't needed!

I think what people are trying to say Mike, is that the v6 panels are simply stuck onto the standard clio panels... so is kind of a 'twin skin' if you like. Whether thats true or not I don't know, which is why it would be interesting to see a 'naked' pic of a v6. The chassis is different to...

I spoke to soon... someone switched the snow on and its coming down now. Hard :(

would be interesting to see actually... anyone got a pic of a 'naked' v6?

nah, you lot can keep your snow thanks. Roll on the summer!

no, but you win the award for the highest center of gravity!

LOL not even a sprinkling of snow... I didn't even have to scrape the car this morning! Slightly smug sat here hearing/reading all the snow stories on the news.

yeah jet washing would get under the vinyl and lift it. Easy fix, should be back to it's former glory in no time :)

still f**k all snow down here in Bournemouth... although we're expecting a massive 20cm overnight apparently. It'll never happen, but it keeps the Met Office busy.

I don't see the problem. Sure, it would be annoying that they damaged it but they've said they would fix their mistake. Let them rectify it, then decide if you're happy with it after that.

Hopefully should be back to it's former glory soon enough. Much damage to the TT?

indeed... no need to stitch him up to the old bill now that he's done the decent thing and admitted it. If I were you, when your car goes in for repair (with him paying), ask the bodyshop to quote you for fixing the paintwork on the other corner... will work out cheaper for you to fix this way.

Nasty. Inform your local police. Sounds like it could be expensive to repair yourself, I would go through insurance tbh... thats why you pay the premium each year after all.

have you spoken to them about it? Be nice, explain the situation and see what they say. They might agree to repair it, they might not and you'll have to cough up the cash yourself due to no evidence.

pick up the phone and ring around? seems a pretty good price if it's fitted.

anyone happen to know the trade price of them?

Z4 wins it for me over the M3... looks so much more purposeful!

when people mention Conti's in here... which ones are they referring to? Conti SportContact 1, 2 or 3? reason I ask is because the SportContact 2 were never fitted as standard to the RS range, however are the most readily available from most places. The other 2 were standard fitment on the...

£92 fitted at Christchurch Tyre Co. Its hardly worth trawling the globe to save a couple of quid per tyre though, is it?

Do you mean the width? Yes, they're the same width but different angles for all that extra downforce...

fronts probably have about 60% left. The rears are pretty much rotten, covered in cracks on the sidewalls and ready to pop. Interesting theory about replacing all 4 at the same time regardless... why would I waste tyres with 5mm tread left on them, seems like throwing away £200 imo.

I'm sorry, are mods not allowed to start new threads? Thanks for everyone's advice, I'll be putting them on the rear as it's the rear ones which are worn anyway. Interesting to see differing opinions though, with different reasons.

Getting 2 new rear tyres as mine are cracking... but my question is this: Do you put the new tyres on the rear, or swap them for the fronts?

Racing blue gets my vote. Inferno is s**t.

you've just made me get the credit card out and buy the 2 new rear tyres which are long overdue... mine are cracking badly on the sidewalls. You've probably just saved my life. Well caught too, can't have been easy in the fast lane.

absolutely love that squareback :approve:

great pics! however, the orange bits don't do it for me. would look better the same colour as the wheels.

pissing it down with rain right now... self cleaning FTW

Mine came on at the beginning of December randomly. It stayed on for a week then cleared itself It came on again yesterday and hasn't gone off yet. Standard 182 exhaust. I'm not bothered about it.

ah, it could be then. My old Ph1 172 was ET43 I though the Ph2s were different.
