Storm Grey is such a good colour for these. Look forward to seeing the progress!

I used to see that Trophy regularly I think. Would pass it on my way to work most days, as he always used to be driving quite steadily. Wonder if it still has the same owner.

It's a stretched version of the Austral, which I had never head of. Not sold in the UK, and the new Espace won't be either apparently.

Seems a shame. I know it's not a very CS car, but the original Espace was a genuine moment of innovation. It created a whole new genre of car. To bring the name back on yet another SUV is pretty lazy, and a bit of an insult to the name. I'm not sure the car industry could get much more...

Yeah that's probably it, as my mate bought it a couple of months back. He must have got lucky if the seller wasn't being helpful for you. It looks pretty decent from the pictures I've seen:

My friend has a silver one, so could be the same car!

There can't be many in NZ. A friend of mine out there has a Ph2 and a Twingo RS, but seems like Renault Sport cars are pretty rare there.

No I don't understand either... https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/165996864108?mkcid=16&mkevt=1&mkrid=711-127632-2357-0&ssspo=Yey9mZ2oTmG&sssrc=2349624&ssuid=wZajmMhFRUi&var=&widget_ver=artemis&media=WHATS_APP

Just buy an ST-1 so it doesn't have keyless. It would be fascinating to see figures for how many have been stolen. I bet it's a tiny percentage in reality.

I don't understand this thing. Why use the Explorer name on something that isn't actually an Explorer? Can't they afford anyone that can think of car names? I can see Ford being gone from Europe before long, at least when it comes to cars. They seem to have totally lost it.

Might be a slightly weird request, but I need to create a couple of document templates in Word; one for a letterhead and one for an internal memo. I need them to have fixed fields, where people can't change the layout or font. Does anyone have any good guides on how to do this? Microsoft...

The keyless entry was susceptible to range extending devices etc. They introduced a motion activated key for the MK8 but I don't know if it was made available for the MK7.

I have spent a good bit of time driving both. The Fiesta is obviously a lot more civilised and way easier to live with on a daily basis. The seating position is a little higher than I like but, compared to the Clio's weirdly angled steering wheel and silly gear lever position, it's still an...

Like it! These have grown on me a lot recently, and they look great in yellow.

I think it's hilarious how annoyed people are getting over it. Yes it's a lot of money, but it's worth what someone is willing to pay for it. Its not how I'd spend £600k but, if you're a billionaire and have loads of cars, why wouldn't you?

I think you were just unlucky TBH. I've had Goodyears in the past and know loads of people that use them and don't think I've ever heard of issues.

Sorry to hear you're going through all of that. Hopefully there is light at the end of the tunnel now though.

R34 GTT. Chatted to the owner. Freshly built RB25 with CP pistons, Tomei cams, big turbo etc etc. Also had GTR bumpers, Nismo-style bonnet and BBS wheels. He said it was about 600bhp.

It's sad really, as the Carfection stuff was really good. It's clearly just not what a lot of people want though. It baffles me what does and doesn't get views though. I put a really badly edited video up a few weeks ago and it's had 11k views so far. It was so bad that I didn't even realise I...

That doesn't seem too bad to me. Last time I was looking at stainless exhausts, a lot of off-the-shelf systems for hot hatches are nearly £1k now. I remember buying a cat-back system for sub-300 back in about 2005 :(

So what's going on the trailer?

Nothing wrong with that, but you just keep trying the same one over and over again :LOL:

Closed-road events are beyond a lot of clubmen, but I think that's probably the case in a lot of countries. They're not entry level events at the end of the day though. The lack of affordable single-venue rallies is really problematic for sure, especially in certain parts of the country. Entry...

Some of these aren't mega close, but there are quite a few events that you could get to, as well as the one mentioned above. Some of the websites haven't been updated for 2023 yet, but the dates are all correct: East Riding Stages, Feb 26th: https://www.bdmc.org.uk/east-riding-stages Race Retro...

Nice to see these events popping up and doing well. About time!

It could be 1,000 and you'd still be mental. This looks like a keeper.

Please don't replace it with another Volvo.

Love these. Just about the best looking hot hatch ever in my view. The proportions are just spot on. Look forward to seeing this evolve.

They are, but this makes it looks 1000x more obvious. Each to their own ultimately, but they look gash in my view. And not in a fresh 18-year old college chick way. In a chunky, fifty-year old growler way.

I know they are, but that doesn't make them look any better. They totally spoil the balance of the car because the side skirts end up sitting lower than the front bumper.
