Ladies & Gents,
My car has developed a whir/squeal when giving it beans. I must confess that I haven't checked CV's etc. as my new house doesn't have the same facilities as my parents.
My initial thoughts are drive shaft/CV but the noise only kicks up when I really give it the full works. I...
Bad luck son. Lesson learnt unfortunatley.
When I first started driving I had the usual 1.2 Nova, Woop Woop. To hide the Sony Mini Disc headunit (top drawer in the day) I had a headunit cover that looked like air vents. The car also had 3 amps, 2 subs, a CD changer, various mids/tweeters &...
'51 plate on 63k.
Mine's not too bad although it's been uprated with copious amounts of superglue and silicone. The wheel is slightly offset as well after it was last tracked but I don't want to have it re-centered as it will concentrate the wear.
I shouldn't have to think like this.

You're bidding on things & you don't even know what they do!;)
They're springs mate. Sportlines are better in my opinion as they lower a little more but Pro's give excellent handling.
The only effect they'll have is that they'll highlight the need for better brakes as you're be driving &...
That'd be me. At the time it had a full stainless and nothing more.
The car changed dramatically after this. Imagine driving your car with a passenger all of the time, I found that after the map it felt like the passenger had gone. In very simple terms.
Since the first map, i've had a run...
Mine's on 63k and I would be lucky to get 3.5k. It's not worth me selling at that price to be honest.
Get some bonus'/overtime in & keep both. Don't go down the loan route though mate, bad idea.
Seconded.
Silk violet GSI XE on Speedlines & coilovers, mint!
Have you got a project thread?
Can't understand how these cars are costing you guys so much money and more to the point, how you can justify it. Even if they are "Sports cars" LOL.
Here you go Flower.

Got one with my LE37R87 & it...
Usually driven by fat wnkers with bad attitudes who've 'traded up' from their L200/'98 Range Rover. Also known as dcik extension.
Maybe that's just around here?

Wouldn't recommend cheap jobs. Mine slipped and fukced a thread on each front hub. Not fun trying to re-cut them.
Have only bought the 182 recently? I'm sure a lad I went to school with used to own T21 JCR. He's called James Ryan from Leeds if that rings any bells.
If you need anything that requires even a modicum of common sense Aluco, try ASK in Kippax. It's a few miles from you but the bum bandits behind the counter know their stuff.
Come to think of it, never use Renault jacks.
TBH, I don't think anyone will notice it come sale time. Invest £50 in a jack & some axle stands & go out to the the yard and count those chickens.
I've been going from Wakefield to Broad Street in Birmingham & back again over the past 2 months. I've been 3 times so far, 114 miles each way so 228 in total equals 1 tank of fuel every time.
Maybe 1 hour 25 minutes to complete the journey might expalin it.
Why not map the Leon?
If you're spending 197/Megane money for a car you want to drive once a week for fun, there are much better options.
Evo', Elise, Catherham (not particularly practical). The Renault wouldn't be where my money was going unless i've got your brief all wrong.
You didn't change the manifold gasket in 2 minutes! It will have taken you longer to wheel the jack out.
Edit: Just read you have a 182, different ball game.
They probably charged 2-3 hours labour as it's a tw@t of a job which is £70-£105 if charging £35 per hour. Plus the price of the...
The Clio/Impreza will be second car so running costs aren't an issue.
This is the sort of thing I would go for. Too rare to be Chav imo.
So are the bike carb's/TB's not possible then?
