It should be OK, but keep regularly checking them visually just to be sure. So long as you stop as well as you should when you press the middle pedal, be happy.

I went through three sets of calipers on my 172 from this over 100k miles. Wear in the sliders was allowing half of the caliper to rock a little giving the vibration but only when they were very very hot and being used very very hard. Under normal use, like you, I had no issue at all. I...

Great show, great weather, stupid/pointless cars.

I find it at least on a par and arguably a little better than either of my Clios (172 and 200). I'm still almost 100% rattle free after 24k miles pounding along broken country back roads, carpets still look good, leather shows no sign of age, everything's still tight and taut. The best bit for...

That's all well and good but we know that CS law dictates you must stop immediately without any consideration of your own safety or that of vehicles coming around the blind bend/over the crest. That was a proper heart in mouth moment.

When I mount mine I just use blu-tac glu-dots. No outer case needed, just stick a few on the base of the go pro then stick it in place, holds it firm enough for a track session, then you simply pull it off and roll the glu-dots off. I had a go pro sticky pad mount on the steering wheel cowl on...

Very nice! Looks like it's limiting torque in the lower gears, are you able to log your boost?

Oooooh, I like that. Can't wait to see/hear it once complete.

I'd say yours was kind of in the middle...there were lots that were noticeably louder driving by and many quieter too, yours is sort of just enough.

Tidy laps sir, great lines ;) I'll have you flat through Fordwater next time :race: Great to catch up, perfect place to do it too!

There's an exhaust due for release soon and you can already get their intercooler and induction hose...we're all just waiting for the map to go with it. They recently said September release for the 'stage 2' so it's expected a few months from now.

Exactly the same seat but you can get full leather in the focus. Partial leather only on the fiesta, orange like mine and grey like this one. Only grey with red or blue body colours though, choice of either with black, white, and orange paint.

So long as it has the orange seats...

Here's mine, can't you just grab yours and 're-align' it? Mine seems to have a bit of movement available...

Do you want them just because you don't have them? Did you not notice from how they light up the road?

ST2 and ST3 come with projector headlights but not xenon bulbs, the ST1 are reflector units.

Oh yeah, I haven't noticed that on mine at all...will check it in a bit...

I don't either...I just make sure the car immediately in front of me gets no bigger. If it does, I brake harder.

Can't say I've noticed the wheel thing not being level at all. Being a true pedant, aside from the sat nav, the audio system is the same for ST2 and ST3...both of which are a Sony unit and of a higher spec than the non-Sony that's on the ST1.

Looks very nice! You've got the earlier limit rev-counter (red before 6.5k). Makes no difference at all...but there seems to be no rhyme or reason as to which one you get!

How someone can spend six years and 50k miles sat in their own sh*t I'll never know. Great work though Daniel :approve:

Inappropriate courtesy...there's barely any scenario where it makes sense to slow down and/or stop a line of fast moving main road traffic to let one individual out. Inconvenience everyone behind you to do a good deed for one person? Just no. I don't even flash from afar, I may ease off to...

No safety briefing required either IIRC? LOL

As a passenger only, yes. I went to Goodwood thinking that if I had bought one a year ago I'd be really p***ed off. I left thinking that if I had bought one a year ago, I'd be really p***ed off with everyone that wouldn't listen or give the car a chance. I've driven 100s of laps around...

Here's a back to back comparison of the audio before and after. The audio level showing in my video editing software gives the 'after' a definite edge...to the tune of approx 0.6db. I think you can notice it, right at the top of the rev range...

I've got some back to back video filmed in the same gear on the same stretch of road, with my microphone tucked right up where the tip of the passenger's feet would be. I think, as said above, it's about 0.00001% louder and 0.00001% sharper. A slight change but nothing that noticeable.

I've been rocking a camera protruding like that on my Nexus 5 for a while now, it makes perfect sense if you use a case as the lens isn't sat 2-3mm deep in a recess. Even without a case the lens is hardly noticeable.

Amazing colour. I thought it was black until it was pointed out that it was actually brown/green/gold. You've captured it perfectly.

It was. Any slight Renault 'fan' that wasn't there missed out. I really hope they have the balls to go for it again next year as it must be a huge undertaking.

This shows exactly why Goodwood is such a good place for a trackday. 2.5 miles of circuit run with 10 car only sessions meaning on each session everyone effectively gets 0.25 mile all to themselves. You hardly ever see anyone else unless you're Ali in which case you fly past everything.
