Garmin Streetpilot I3, £99 from comet if they have any left. always gets rave reviews, very small and neat yet not too small.
I bought one but havent set it up yet, need to route the external aerial neatly and havent had a chance.
I think Iain's concerned that your timing belt went? and you could have bent some valves etc by keeping it running.
Is it maybe just a coil pack failure and so it's not firing on all 4 cylinders?
couldnt find it but basically a renault dude replied saying aye the 182 has better power to weight and is faster, the 197 has continuously variable valve timing so has a flatter acceleration i.e. no 5k kick.
^ beaten to it
yes lots of blue smoke when first running it, due to the oil and grease and stuff on the metal I guess.
the fiat coupe behind me must have thought I was in a DCi
10-15kg then I'd say.
Should have weighed my blueflame when it arrived, the 2 back boxes are pretty hefty.
Blueflame ship in the under 25kg category if that helps.
review:
been out and done 100+ miles on B roads today, went on to the motorway too to see what it was like. I'll start with the boring motorway: totally unobtrusive when cruising, only notice it being louder when you accelerate in gear and even more so when you drop a cog.
out on the back...
no rattles at all, they used a different clamp at the cat though, said once they opened up the existing u-clamp there was no way they were gonna re-use it.
