The cup isn't any quicker than the other RS's in the real world, you're talking a few tenths quicker to 60 and you're never going to notice that. The cup feels rawer and the main reason I went for the cup was on the basis of "less equipment less to go wrong".

I was heading up towards middlebrook in Horwich, you passed me on the opposite side of the road. Car had an oval back box below the bumper, looked like a Magnex back box.

Lol! Very brave posting that mate and yes they will say what they think on here.

Lol. And you'll have a decent drive back if you're 8 hours away from it. 5k kick FTW! Have you paid extra for the 2 year warranty?

I've got some JVC 6"x9"s (120watt rated) in mine (fitted in the parcel shelf by the previous owner) I've since removed the rear seats and built a false floor and cut the speakers in to that. They're good enough for what I want as I'm not really in to powerful music systems i.e subs anymore...

Not sure if it'll work for yours because mine is a 172 Cup but I get the airbag and serv light lighting up now and then, I just wiggle the wires under the passenger seat and it knocks them off. Other than that I'd try disconnecting the battery for 20 minutes to reset the ECU.

Lol! The sensible thing to do would be to write a list of everything to check before you leave your house. Saying that though I've never done that myself.

Yours had shrink (sp) cams aswell didn't it? Think I remember the advert you posted on here when you had it for sale.

Easy done. I always end up forgetting to check something when buying a new car.

If they have been done it should be in the service history.

If that's true it sounds likely the belts have been done.

10 minutes? How'd you manage to do them that quick? lol When I did mine it took 4 hours :| Saying that though I did give each caliper 4 coats.

If they've been looked after, serviced regular etc, they'll be fine, there's a few knocking about on here over the 100k mark. Fletcher's is a mint example of this ;). Personally the high mileage would scare me off but that just me.

£1700 isn't that bad of a quote considering your age.

LOL! I know that feeling mate, mine just indicates right ALL the time.

Sorry to hear about your car mate. Thieving scummy chav c***s. It should be legal to electrify the bodywork on your car via leads from your house.

Like everyone has already said up to 120mph they're pretty quick after that and they seem to hit a wall (not literally obviously).

+1 You can clearly see the reg just before he lifts the bonnet.

Nice looking motor, although I've never heard of it before :S

You can have to flanges with the bolt holes in welded on each end the pipe that replaces the cat. Mine has this, makes the job a whole easier when it M.O.T time comes and you need the cat back in. Previous owner did this on my car by the way, I'm still waiting to have my de-cat pipe made up.

These still haven't sold then. They've been on Ebay for a while now, noticed them last month and the price still hasn't changed either.

Car's looking nice and clean Ian, it's a right pain in the arse to keep black cars clean isn't it? Do you have any other plans for it? I'd personally get the wheels powder coated white but I've always been a fan of black cars with white wheels.

f**king hell, didn't realise there would be enough room to hold that much. Bet that car felt a tad nippier afterwards. Less weight etc.

+1 Highly rated but they're quite expensive. Also do a drive in and drive out in the day service.

I know that feeling mate. I did it in one of my previous cars. My mate crashed his car in front of me and the only way I could avoid smashing in to him was bouncing up the curb, well and truely ruined an alloy. Unless it really bad no one will notice it while you're driving anyway.

There's a device you can buy from K-tec that knocks the light off. Might just be for the 172 that though, sure someone else will be along to confirm that. Or you could try disconnecting the battery and resetting the ECU that works for some.

I know this sounds daft but it wouldn't be the petrol sloshing about in your petrol tank would it? Only suggesting it because I can really hear mine doing it since I removed the rear seats out of mine.

Probably a long shot but it's the cheaper alternative than paying for it to be plugged in on a diagnostic machine but have you tried disconnecting the battery for 10-20 minutes to reset the ECU?

Lol! Good old Renault and their amazing mild steel standard exhausts, infamous for dropping off. Where are you having a new one done? AAS exhausts?
