First day of using it.
First impressions:
It doesn’t like going into 3rd gear
It’s set up very twitchy
Front wheel drive isn’t very exciting
It’s kinda quick
Seats are comfy
It doesn’t sound super charged
It’s rides quite well for AST’s
Brakes are really good
Dunlop’s don’t like the cold
Set about the PMS tonight.
After realising what an utter f**k taking it off and repressing the bearing would be.
I decided to try to lube the thing up as all the joints were dry.
70% improvement straight away. So I’ll save the bearing till another day. Probably when I fit a Sport cat.
New bearing for the PMS is here. Will try to get that on this weekend.
Also I found some push button quick release clips that I'll use to make the bumper removable. I'll need to fix the splitter back on too!
I will be, but it’s nice to test stuff on the road every now and again.
Paying over £600 for cover with 5 track days is a joke.
The Westie with 5 trackdays was £310 with garanteed value of £20k on the car with a £1000 excess. Sadly the provider for that won’t cover Clio’s!
Who do you all use?
Mines quite modified with a super charger etc.
Flux quoted £350 but now won’t honour it due to me wanting to add track days on.
Green light could do sub £400 if I’d owned the car for more than a year which makes no sense!
I don’t really want to pay more than my main car...
Already ordered a new bearing as it pissed me off when packing it of the trailer!
Next job will be making the bumper quick release so I can take it on an off rather than bringing a forest worth of wood with me to get it off the trailer!
That's right..... I bought Cub's car.
I'll keep track of all the goings on in here!
Weird thing is, I went to view this car when I was 17 (13 years ago)! I didn't buy it then, as I couldn't afford it. Spooooky.
Annoyingly I snapped the splitter getting it off the trailer. So that's first...
Also Mark....
NEVER AGAIN SAY IT COULD THE BOOST SOLONIOD BUT I DONT KNOW WHAT THAT IS.
Just have a 5 min read in the internet and understand the stuff people have told you when trying to help.
You boost plot is all over and the boost solenoid controls boost. It’s a fair suggestion and not...
Pule is wrong. McGherkin is right.
Take my old situation:
Alpina D3 max laden weight - 2040kg
3500 - 2040 = 1460.
So I had my trailer down plated to a max of 1455kg.
Then I was legal.
Once I bought my Rangie I had to do my B+E as its max laden weight is over 3tonnes so no amount of...
