To get those light trail shots you really need to have a Digital SLR Camera.
I have loads at home, just dont have any net acces to upload them. They are quite easy to do, but you need a tripod.
The idea behind them is that you set the camera to leave the lense open for a set length of time...
Parked outside my work place, needs a clean:rasp:
If you take a look down the side of the building you will see my Trophy and my collegus 07 plate Megane 225 Trophy in Red its like a bloody dealership just with better service LOL
I am forever having Salesmen pull up in there BMW look over and give me a stupid smile, what I tend to do know is let them think there car is quicker by letting them get off the lights first, and then go past them straight away. LOL
The 182 Cups, are pretty much the same as the Trophy, no Xenons, Auto headlamps/wipers or Climate control. They have cloth interior as well.
They still come with Cruise Control and Traction Control though
Piper make the new lot that GDI have, I was speaking to Gary at Piper regaridng gettting one and was told I had to go through GDI which is fair enough.
I love the Piper gear, well made and not silly prices, I had one fitted to one of my old cars and it sounded really nice. Well worth the money...
Looks lovely well worth the wait.
As for it been the second best colour, Sorry i have to disagree its the 3rd. It goes, Capsicum red, Black Gold then Blue LOL;).
I bet you are well chuffed, i know I would be after driving a 1.1 Fester for a year.
Thing I found with the rear caliper is that you will need to have a smallish flat head screw driver to slide into the piston.
Oh and make sure you push and turn, I was there for 15 mins turning and couldnt figure out why it wouldnt retract, the only other finndly part is putting the locking...
Autosol can be bought from most car shops I got mine from Halfords, you only need a tiny bit and it last forever.
I always use it on the exahust tips to bring the shine back on them, then top it off the Meguires NXT just for that extra little bit of shine.
Isle of Man has a totally different set of rules and laws when it comes to the licensing of plates.
Essentially if you have the correct font and they have silver reflective lettering you will be fine.
NO YOU CANT. The police will be cracking down on all illegal number plates more than they did previously. Basically if your plate does not conform to the below, you may be up for a £30 fine.
Oh and with the new MOT System, you can fail, as my friends dad has a 1974 MG with black plates...

After chatting to the guys in Germany I think they are looking for dealers in different parts of the Country, to become Authorised Installers and retailers. My German is not great but thats what I understood.
Supposably the company has supplied these chips/modules to a number of...
Just to bring this post back into the lime light, have any of you guys actaully fitted one of these chips and if so whats the feed back.
The company I work for have been approached by the manufactures of these kits to become one of the UK Distributors of there products, we are a little...
Yeah thats exactally what I thought I am sure this is similar to the group N ECU Remap but this way it fools the accelator into thinking you are pushing it further quicker.
Not sure, but would like to test on on someone else car to see what if any difference it makes.
From the looks of the product it is a control module that is placed at the back of the accelartor pedal, to fit it you have to undo the screws that hold the pedel in position, slid it out of the way and disconnect the wires leading the the back of the pedal.
Once the cable is disconnected, you...
Right I had a phone call from a company earlier, who as per normall were trying to sell us stuff and become a UK Importer for certain items.
One of the items they offer is a "Sprint Booster Power Convertor", basically from the blurb I have received, it is a control unit that plugs into the...
Mines full of...................................
Oh hang on I dont actually have one, bollecks.:rasp:
I tend to have one of those Glade airfresheners in the car, normally with freshly clean linen or something silly like that, the otherhalf buys them for me.
When I had my old 1.4 Dynamic, I has the air bag lighgt come up numerous times, when I took it into Renault o have it sorted, i was advised that the block connectors they had used were the casue of the fault.
They replaced the connector with the newer connector and all was fine, all it will be...
You will need to do a little bit of bodging to fit them if you have a Cupped model, but nothing thats going to cause any huge problems.
I have helpped fit a set to a cup model and it was just a case of re drilling and welding a new plate in, unfortuntely it invlalids the warranty. but hey...
One simple answer t that is no. Bluetooth on most phones is only able to send voice data, not streamed music.
Best thing to do is buy yourself a good Bluetooth phone kit, such as the Sony Erricson, or Parrot, and have it wired up to your speakers in the car, then get yourself a MP3 Headunit...
Re: Best comment from your local Renault dealer ever
I took my car into Renault the other week to book it in for a 24k service.
The guy behind the desk told me that my car would be out of warranty know, confused I asked him why and he proceeded to list all of the things that I have done to...
I have a 350d, but when I was looking I had a play with a few of the Nikon models.
TBH if you are looking for a SLR that is easy to use with good features stick with a Cannon such as the 400d. You will be able to use all the lenses that you currently have plus you will already understand the...
No mate the fuel rail gaurd is sat at the very front of the engine directly in front of your engine cover, in the centre of the engine bay.
The part which you had to remove is the ECU Bracket which holds the ECU in place, be very carefull when refitting it as they have a tendency to snap.
I have driven both a 182 with Coilovers and as you may guess own a Trophy.
I would never sell the Trophy for a 182 with coilovers, it just isnt the same. You really need to take it on a stretch of road you know like the back of you hand and give it some. You will and I will give you money...
