    My first attempt at wrapping - LIME GREEN BMW 335D!

    The PH1 172 Appreciation Thread.

    Yeah it's a shame I'm not in the market for one right now. I really do like that. I'm confused between that and Benkay's though, couzens isn't quite modded enough, benkays a little too much.

    Clio 4RS guesstimate prices (almost) released...

    It doesn't matter if it's better than Christmas, it's still like driving a playstation game. There's just not enough challenge in two pedal and right hand change up, left hand change down unless I'm being thrown through time and space by a v12

    My first attempt at wrapping - LIME GREEN BMW 335D!

    It'd be no problem at all, plus you wouldn't need to wrap the roof. (Well you could, but I don't think it'd work) :D The finish looks brilliant though, really. I'm surprised white is cheap compared with green, I thought just generic colours would be similar and maybe metallic effects or...

    My first attempt at wrapping - LIME GREEN BMW 335D!

    Wow. Very impressive indeed! It's pretty damn hard work then? Does it work out, materials + time vs cost as well as detailing then? Can't imagine it does, but it's another string to your bow I guess? As said, if you ever want another mule... y'know, just to test out your skills before you...

    God awful colour but it looks like you've done a great job! If you want more practice, let me know ;)

    Clio 4RS guesstimate prices (almost) released...

    I'd say so yes. In a 1.6T I just wouldn't say there's enough pace to warrant using the paddles. Personally, my z4 hasn't got enough pace to warrant paddles! I don't snatch at the gear change whilst really hammering it, I can just drive very enthusiastically and enjoy putting the car through...

    Clio 4RS guesstimate prices (almost) released...

    Please tell me you're trolling??? Supercars are bought by people with a lot of money, and more often than not, no idea how to drive. Can you imagine how many times "Tony" that owns a string of local barber shops would hit the limiter in a manual lambo? I just don't see this 1.6T being earth...

    Welcome, a nice change from the ordinary "Dave from Braintree" welcome thread too! That's some mileage!!!

    My day with Clio 4

    Being honest, I hate that. It looks terrible (imo). Something about the outside screams "I'm a KIA" until you realise it's got a meter sq renault badge on the front. The Clio has always been desirable to younger people and that just looks like something my nan would have wanted. Then you get...

    Hell no. Not on a road car. It'd lose every ounce of class.

    Re: Clio 4RS prices released... HANG ON. The RS version will be auto only? Surely CS members actually make up a fair % of new RS Clio's purchased in the Uk at least?

    Re: Clio 4RS prices released... I'm pretty bored and have just checked, if they come out at 22k, I don't know why I'd not just buy a 125i hatch for for £2750 more.

    Re: Clio 4RS prices released... LOL! Millions have been subject to wage freezes yet the prices of Renault hot hatches just never stop climbing.

    Tracking 3G

    Using your own 3G, on your own phone, they can't check s**t. But yes, essentially being connected to a work network on your phone they could see what you're browsing. No more toilet wanks for you.

    Dave, have you like most, not got a pot of random nuts and bolts? If not, I'm sure there's probably one you could nick off the car from somewhere that isn't vital for now.

    182/Trophy Reliability?

    Real world, 37 mpg IME. Motorways if you can deal with being bored, 42mpg, 40 normally. Even when really abusing it you'll still see 18mpg

    If you've got a sparky coming over and he hasn't got a few random bits like that lying in his van I'd be surprised.

    From a quick bit of research, 120 amps apparently. I could be wrong though.
