    Economical?

    I love how they decided to park it by crashing it into the pub and then chocking it with a shoe. Real practical.

    Annoyingly I would say that that's about the only real option at that price point since you can't use a Logitech G27 with a PS4. A T300RS is a much better wheel if you can stretch to that.

    HID H7 main beam - blue light stuck on

    HIDs in the main beam aren't the greatest tbh. The warmup time isn't good, and the drivers don't like to be flicked on and off constantly - hence why BiXenons use a moveable shutter rather than a second bulb. However to answer your question, usually it's a case of a bad earth causing a back...

    Ah, the 740. My parents had about 5 of 'em until they moved onto Mercs.

    Project cars

    The only ones I don't really like are the Megane Trophy, RXC Turbo and the 12C. The rest I've found pretty easy to drive tbh, even that horrible looking W motors Hyelashckan Hyperedgy.

    Mk1 Escort is a thing of beauty. Better?

    Errything on. I love driving the Focus RS too. The Meganes are twitchy as f**k - Oh, you used something other than full throttle whilst turning the steering wheel? Allow me to pitch you into a wall backwards. Even under full throttle the arse sometimes comes out.

    I know. The one for Assetto Corsa doesn't work any more either, annoyingly. Love the Sauber. And the CLK GTR (LM) too.

    RS Monaco Clio surprise (Renault Clio R.S.16)

    I've always thought that one of the UK's biggest and most expensive motorsport events is the perfect place to buy a diesel Kadjar.

    I hate my mobile provider

    I used to be on Giffgaff too, but as above the signal was never really good enough.

    Project cars

    I've never got on with Assetto Corsa. I've tried like hell to get all the settings right and it still doesn't feel at all realistic to me. Don't get me wrong, you can't get the arse end out on Pcars in a lot of cars, but it's still realistic enough to not piss me off constantly.

    Rear brake compensator delete

    Yeah, this. WOULD. NOT. RECOMMEND.

    Still playing the absolute f**k out of this. Did a 4 hour enduro yesterday at Le Mans in a McLaren F1. Managed P3 which wasn't too bad considering I kept twatting the backmarkers and having to pit. Last 2 laps were epic as I had some suspension damage and had to reach the finish before P4...

    182 crash question

    How do they know it's beyond economic repair then?

    182 crash question

    Because they've already assessed it as being wrecked, they won't let you drive it away. Get someone to have a look at it from a garage you know, they'll produce a quote which then gets sent to the insurance company, who then approves the quote and the work then takes place. Assuming it's not...

    182 crash question

    Some insurance companies want to keep written off cars with no chance of buyback. Personally I'd have it repaired by a person of my own choosing for a fraction of the price that the insurance repairers want, the insurance will pay out if it's no longer so expensive that it would write the car...

    Clio turbo pure motorsport exhaust video

    They look great when they're sitting right :up: Wish I had an ignition cut limiter :(

    Wot Is Dis?

    If it lights up, it means the bomb's about to go off. Don't bother stopping the car, you won't have time. Just throw the door open and jump.

    Lovely sound, sticks out a fair old way though doesn't it?

    Daily Driver, work in progress!

    Who are you taking it to to get the belts done? I'd have misgivings about even taking them to main dealers, as even the dealers have cocked them up since they're used to working on 1.2s and diesels. Otherwise it looks like a good little daily :up:

    182 belts Cornwall

    I believe they're mail order only now, no garage services.

    A few of my friends have used R&S Motors in Saltash, with good reviews. Dan ^ did mine.

    Subwoofer recommendations?

    12.5 if it's a 150w one. Mine was 150w and I'd have thought most are. EDIT: lol, beaten to it.

    Is this a dangerous harness bar?

    A proper harness bar will make things safer. The instructions for harness fitting state that the rear mounting points can't be too low, and for good reason since it can cause spinal compression if you mount them so your shoulders are the pointy bit of a triangle. The harness bar is supposed to...

    Is this a dangerous harness bar?

    Something smells fishy. Probably the .cod file they're uploading. Battery voltage 11.7v too. In fact, I've seen that laptop before....

    New member Clio 172... for the Track, tell me about perf mods please

    'SERV' light doesn't usually come on on its own. Any other lights on? My bet is the airbag light as a result of changing the steering wheel. EDIT: or that cracked ABS ring. Synchro crunch 2nd-3rd is common, a sign that the box is on its way to needing a refurb.
