They were probs talking about a term called signal clutter. This is when a driver signals L/R without looking to see if it will benefit another road user. For example signalling L/R could mean to overtake or park or pull off as well as turning L/R.
If you are approaching a hazard such as a...
Can anyone tell me what colour the outer casing of the side repeaters on the cup should be. I bought a used 03 cup with clear repeaters but have noticed that some cups on this site have orange repeaters.
Perhaps the last owner modified them? If so my insurance company probably want to...
Again a fair comment! (mutual appreciation society!) I do actually really like the Willy and since Strombas been hinting that its is going to get a fantastic write up in EVO Im sure this will have a positive effect on resale prices.
I therefore searched Autotrader and was pleasantly surprised...
The problem with 0% interest is that you have to pay for it somewhere!
For example they will charge you full whack for car whereas if you had cash in yer back pocket you could negociate a discount!
Not that they would ever admit to charging you for 0% finance coz its illegal;)
Youl get diddly squat mate with the vast majority of insurance companies.
Been there and done that with ROSPA which is one higher than IAM.
Even my examiner who was a chief police instructer best driver in the world sort of bloke got no discount !
A peep said call it what you like but it aint a proper cup in my opinion. I chose my Golf with the option of a better stereo but I dont call it Golf Stereo!

These are only paper figures but these figures come from real road tests and rather than inscribing them in stone they are written on paper! A lot of people poo poo paper figures...
or according to http://www.fasthatchbacks.com/http://www.fasthatchbacks.com/ you would be a good 6-8 car lengths clear at 100. But these are only paper figures!
Would not choose a cup for regular long distance or for the lack of air con in summer. I chose a golf myself, supremly comfy in GTI trim which is what you want really for a m-way cruncher.
Would not chose a 182 as it aint big enough
I do agree about the MPV style of the CTR but it doesnt stop me from wanting one in championship white with the nice red badges! Saw a trailer load of them on the M4 once and they just looked great!
If you have to chip the LCR is it really worth it? I know turbos are easy to tune but once...
Totally agree, whilst we all criticise, compare and evaluate, cup/LCR/CTR and even Focus RS, in real world it aint wirth swapping between them in terms of performance. Gotto go up a stage? Still cars like the CTR and Focus and cup to an ever so slightly lesser extent will hold their own on a...
The cup or the CTR has been bothering me lately too!
I have been thinking of replacing the cup with an 04 CTR but couldnt justify the extra 6k for the following reasons - personal to me.
I rarely...if ever exceed 100mph so the CTRs top end advantage is irrelevant. According to EVO the cup...
The 172 is already in a high state of tune and for massive gains you are gonna have to go for t/bs. To be honest keep it std, there quick enough and whacking a baked bean can on the back just screams boy racer!
Do chnage the seats though as this aint a proper mod! I will be changing mine...
Has anyone changed the bog std seats in their clio cup?
I would like to fit something more hugging (not hard really!) and were thinking of recaros?
Can peeps give me make and model number for the seats and do they affect insurance premiums by much?
Kind regards...................
Does better mean faster or just all rounded appeal? I need to know as if it is faster than the cup I can feel a trade in coming! Current figures (even lopping a few .secs off for the famous engine run in) would suggest not?
Regards.....................
I dont think cup owners would be jealous about the options pack as it aint no cup! For some reason RENO decided not to produce a proper 182 cup!
Dont get me wrong though I think it is a great car and if it was faster than a cup I would ring my delaer straight away. I dont need the toys as it...
