I'd really like one of these. Used to have an 850 T-5 that had all the R bits on. Mine was an auto but would definitely have a manual next time.
This is the Volvo you should be modifying!
My 172 has them currently (came on some wheels I bought) and I genuinely hate them. Don't seem that good in the dry and pretty bloody frightening in the winter.
I get it. Go for it. Brave for wanting to put up with something so hardcore every day, but fair play. It will do your head in half the time, but rock your world the rest of it. Saving money over the M5 and zero depreciation to boot.
People get very caught up in "fancy" performance cars. I've...
That's what does make me reluctant to be honest. Got a 172 Cup currently and eventually plan to turn it into a rally car. However, I would imagine the MK1 is a little lighter and (most importantly) looks way cooler, so I would prefer to start with one of those. Just don't much fancy spending...
I've been doing some searching but not come up with much.
Has anyone ever measured the differences between 172, 172 Cup, 182 and 182 Cup suspension parts? What are the actual differences? I know the damper bolt spacing is different on the 182 Cup, but what about the actual hub dimensions? Am I...
Think we all have cars we regret selling! Clios are great cars though. Mine was only meant to be a stopgap but can't bring myself to sell it! Cheers for the info, will give them a call some time. Few other bits to replace though, so it might have to wait a little while yet.
Bonkers ain't it?! I guess I would have had the ST220 at that point. Since then I've had a Volvo V70, the Clio and currently got a Golf R. Also still got two RS2000 rally cars and an old four door MK5 Escort. I need to sell some of them though lol.
