u talking 1.9 I take it? I used to put the arse out on my 1.6 in the wet deliberatley because you knew you could predict it. Never ever had it out of shape in a big way, and I drive hard.

get on the roof and pedal it adds 1.1bhp but the drag cancels it out so I dont bother.

i used to say that Paul lol the 1.9 is a different kettle of fish, 1.6 handling is better

lol it won't fall off, a lot safer than the bootracks. it does cause a wee leak where it interferes with the door seal but sh_t happens eh! it'll be off next monday

Paul you get used to it and it is as much fun, maybe not quite as predictable but still...

the 1.6just doesnt let go, I really dunno how anyone could crash one - so much fun. Yet without the crazy speeds the RS's etc are capable of, I find myself going into bends on B-Roads about 10mph faster in the 182 than in my 1.6 gti, all good fun

well the 1.6gti defo handles better than my 182, never driven a trophy so can comment. But the 205gti handles like anything on £30 OEM shockies wheras the Trophy is on £3k shockies! lol

It's Thule - the best, I got it locally but you can get them from a website called 'skidrive' - It's about £110 for the roofrack, then £50 for a bike carrier to go on it. Not RRP's, RRP's are much higher! I paid £165 for the roofrack with one bike carrier (with a 20% discount), Ally on here and...

my moneys on fubar 2006 RS Clio v6 convertible anyone?

its still on lol, will be till next week aswell :)

they idle badly as it is, its the vvt keeping emissions down. each to their own, its default settings (timing) are for 98ron but it can easily cope with 95.

thats £62.50 a wheel, they'd be over £100 each new

poke a bicycle gear or brake cable inner in the gaps between panels to unblock any drains maybe? worked in my 205

u could sell them for £400 once re-furb'd prob so seems like a great deal

f a n n i e s what did the police say?

The one big difference i noticed was the engine noise, it didnt sound as refined as it did using 97/8. noise might change back to what you're used to after a few tanks full of 95 and the ecu adjusts the timing to suit...

yup i'd agree with that, I always use 95 ron myself :o

looking tidy

mmm looks so clean, but soooooooo much money

for alcantara use warm clean water: http://www.alcantara.com/eng/english.html

lol the roofrack is for the bike, it was pissing down when i got home so its still on

u dont know its there till u see a shadow or look at the cars reflection lol

;) it wont be staying on in between biking trips

parked up next a cousin today, is it arctic blue? didnt look quite the same... I do apologise about my roofrack! lol

nah for economy and year round fun PE2's all the way. Lots of tyres are good in the dry but for wet and dry nothing can touch the PE2 - Pilot exalto fullstop even used to run them on my 205gti too. they do last well too.

woohoo cheers

I'll try again:

16 months 22k miles

yeah look for oil on the shock or a patch of oil where you park.

HS53 LHK was the top gear one
