Yep, that was one of my favourites too! I did actually enjoy the one with the guy from STG too. He came across better than I expected and I found it interesting. I do find car media a really interesting topic in itself though.

Such a shame they're so sporadic!

Was just going to suggest the same. Really like that podcast, it's a good listen.

You have a spreadsheet for before you have even bought a car? @MarkCup would be jealous! Looks a nice motor though.

So they want to sponsor you, but would rather you crashed if it rains than use a different tyre 😂 Do they do a 16" tyre? I guess that would be an option in the short term, as I'm sure a 15" tyre will appear eventually (though I guess 15" is pretty rare on homologated cars now). It's that or fit...

MRF are interesting I think. Apparently they have some very good engineers working for them. Going to be interesting to see how they develop. Would like to try them.

Nice upgrade those Ohlins. Are you doing every round of the championship?

Nothing wrong with normally aspirated. I think we have gotten used to turbo engines and the easy increases, so a bit of perspective has been lost. Ultimately, if you can afford it, do what makes you happy. If you've got all the throttle body parts and it's ready to go, I would probably just go...

Totally just trying to screw money out of you in my view.

Like that. Not so keen on the splitter but each to their own. With the spoiler and Speedlines it will look great!

I love the disapproving looks you get when you drive a loud car. I think it's hilarious, partly because we probably all do it ourselves to some degree, but also because I love how uptight people get about it. They're busy judging you, while probably driving the most mundane turd of a car...

This is a Clio forum. We can say nothing about driving position.

Might be a bit of a trek for me :ROFLMAO: Really hope you can get some help though, really want to see this finished!

Got a bit of an issue with my 197 and wanted some advice... I'm getting a vibration through the car under acceleration, from around 45-70mph. It seems worse if you're in a higher gear when the engine is labouring more. If you sit at a steady speed in that range, it's not nearly so severe, but...

Did I miss this, but why are you running the cam sensor like that?

What's not very good? I don't think I have ever read a bad review of the 106 GTI?

A mate of mine got offered an S1 Rallye for £1k when we were about 18. We often say that he should have bought it and by God he should have.

Looks lovely that. Love them in yellow and won't be many around like that. Though a bit too nice to use, which is a shame. I'd love one of these or a Saxo VTS, but the prices are a bit rich for me.

Saw this on the M40 earlier. Piston Heads forum members would have been wanking furiously no doubt...

This was near Stratford on Avon.

I'm away for work this week and just saw this in the hotel car park:

Is it worth throwing it in there that BMW have given up and made the M135i 4WD? I think that probably says a lot about what the average person wants from their car...

Hang on, what's the blue one?

Still haven't cleaned the 197 since I bought it in August. I think it's actually getting cleaner now though...

Coincidentally, that episode of WD was on last night. I love a 993, but I just can't get on with Targa 911s.

Totally agreed. I've had a couple of modern turbo motors in the last few years (Golf R and Meg RS) and, while they are impressive, you can't really use them on the road, even in standard form. To feel on the limit in the Golf, you had to be really tanking it, to pretty dangerous levels. When...

So you're not going to turbo it, which probably means a 500bhp forged Megane engine is coming then :ROFLMAO:

Impressive for a standard car 😂 Any more plans, or are you happy now?

Someone on RSMegane.com was messing with a Scenic/Espace with the 2.0T engine. I think the compression ratio is a bit different, so I assume different pistons or rods. Not sure if the turbo is the same or not.

I still miss mine to this day. Would love another.
