Pops and bangs;)

I do indeed mate.

I can vouch for that, he IS hardcore.

Me too, can get them for £60 each fitted. I've moved onto paradas now though. Can't fault the Contis at all, I've used em for 3 years.

Was good to meet you all but sorry for not sticking around, had a somewhere to be. How f**king cold was it??

At last, H&R is part of your life again. Hope they're as good, sure they are? Bit of a s**t them f**king up your paintwork!

Great pics Lee, some nice toys there.

Definately mate, I can't wait either it's gonna be goo-oo-ood...only a month or so:S

Me and a ladyboy in Thailand (judt for you Dutchess): And me and the missus in my car:

What a great trip that must have been. Jumping on a plane to pick up your new car. Like it mate but not the splitter & plate surround...but then that's been said quite a bit above lol. Enjoy.

If they feel crap then it could be a fluid issue also.

Had a green cone, best used for a door stop! Got an ITG panel now. Worth it just for the sticker lol.

I test drove one a month or so back. It is a nice allround package but doesn't quite have that special something a petrol head craves, imo of course. Yes the torque is massive and even though it was only about 2000 miles old it pulled in every gear very well. Sounded good too. But, it just...

Some garages will tell porky's, be warry. Easy to check yourself mate. How much of a lip is on the edge of the discs?

That's very cheap. Best price I could get fitted for the PE2's was 95 each! Hence being on contis for so long, my tyre man does them for 60!

Not at all, they've been on for about 7-8 months now and have done Bedford the other weekend. Still loads on them. But, being a performance pad they do squeek if you punish them. Just sounds like a racer to me which I like. p.s. Had the Goodridge lines fitted too, well worth it.

You'll be lucky to get one changed under warranty being an 02 plate. I was VERY lucky to get one changed on mine and that's a 52, I did have 55,000 miles on the clock though. There was one up for sale in here the other day, from a cup though. £360 or there abouts from Renault iirc?

Absolutely right mate, I didn;t like the F1's when I switched to those a while back and went back to Contis which although are quite hard, are a good tyre for the price imo. Jut replaced them with PE2's in the 205 wide allround. Feel a lot stickier, sure the 'ring will help me judge more:D

I never see black mk1 172's. Seen a few and know people that have had the red.

I've got the ferodo DS2500's and Brembo standard discs and they're excellent. Don't make any extra dust than standard either. Fitting them is quite easy too.

Nice to hear this thread. Add 2 years and another 20,000 miles and you'll have my report:D Oh, and the cost of a cambelt change!

lol, I need a touch up bonnet lol, mine's fooked. ...and front bumper ...and rear ...and dent devils:S

That is impressive Rich. I wish my car was in it's original state, bit far gone and needs proper bodyshop paintwork now. Love the 205 aswell.

did they not give abs an option like the climate on the later models. could be a true friday car and they fitted it by mistake, lol.

Hoovering was the easy bit, might have to find a multi cultural car cleaner soon too.

Not a fan of bigger wheels on the sports but those turinis on the silver looks spot on. Nice looker that mate. I've just come in from cleaning my cup, can't feel my hands!!

Nice one buddy, glad Tom sorted you out he's a top bloke. They will settle a bit more after about 200 miles or so. I'd get your tracking checked after that too just to be sure. Happy driving in the lower hemisphere;)

Please lose the Seatbelt pads. They ruin a lovely car.

Looks nice sat on the turinis

They are lovely, exactly what I'd have and might. Are they Loony's old ones?
