    Opinions going from 172 -> R27 197?

    i went from ph2 172 to ph1 172 to 200. would never in a million years go back. 172's were great in their day and will still happily keep pace with a 200 in a straight line but the 200 has a cracker of a chassis, awesome brakes, no rattles, recaros are awesome and they are a much nicer place to be.

    How far on a Full Tank?

    my 172's would have done that no problem too but this seems about average for a 200 going by the reviews, again as i said its done 400 odd miles, so will loosen up a bit but cant see it making a massive difference only made 2 or 3 mpg difference on my dci doing 20k over brand new

    Clio Mk3 1.5 DCi glowplug issue

    as above EGR valve clean and set of glowplugs would be where i would start before spending any more cash on it

    AG 200 Cup

    yeah i agree its a technique that requires a bit of practice, the later and harder ur braking the easier it is, the pedal setup in the clio 3 is much better for heel and toe but the clio 2 even with drive by wire throttle is easier to do it with, pitty the mk3 isnt quite as sharp. mk3 DCi's are...

    AG 200 Cup

    Its all about mechanical sympathy.

    AG 200 Cup

    same as the issues with a 172/182 JC3 box though, heel and toe on down shifts and they are perfect, its people dropping down through the gears without rev matching!

    Thinking of purchasing a Clio 1.5dci

    106 as far as i know uses the same turbo though? correct me if im wrong? just delivers its power much better than the 100 did. i got on quite well with the dci 100 box but i wouldnt say its any better or worse than a JC5, although i do prefer the hydraulic clutch setup with the linkage on top of...

    Thinking of purchasing a Clio 1.5dci

    mk3 dci's are AWESOME!!!! my GT DCi 106 was the best car ive owned, the mk3s are worse on fuel as said above, they arnt much different when on a long run and the weight is moving, its more around town as your constantly accelerating and braking and hauling the weight about, however as much as...

    Have you seen any better spec laptops?

    keep in mind guys while they are still no replacement for the offerings from ATI and Nvidia, Intels latest graphics solutions are MUCH better than they were back in the Intel Extreme days! they will quite happily stream 1080p video online, so really unless gaming they are fine!

    Buying my first car. Clio 1.2

    probably the most expensive one you will come across is the wiring harness on the back of the engine rubbing on the engine and cutting through the wiring loom. the much cheaper and more common ones are faulty coil packs causing missfiring, dodgey throttle bodys causing rough running, faulty TDC...

    Buying my first car. Clio 1.2

    worth a look, basic 1.2 16v engine is pretty reliable apart from the same common faults and usually cheap to put right!
