    19 in 6 months, what car to get?

    people will slate a young driver for driving a 172/182 but heres what i found coming from my 1.2 16v. i had more power to make overtakes without them becoming dangerous i had traction control to assist me if i ever got slightly out of control (being 17 at the time!!) i had big 280mm brakes...

    hence why i said i agree its stupid arguing about a standard car against a modified one, my MODIFIED 172 had more power and more torque than your heavier 197, hence why it was quicker, i was pointing out if an ibiza TDi passed my 172 then it would pass a 197.

    Anyone fitted a KTR SHORT THROW QUICKSHIFT GEARLEVER?

    give the gearbox a nicer feel but remember it just lets you rush the box even more so be carefull not to break the box!

    19 in 6 months, what car to get?

    i love this attitude on CS that because its a diesel it could never compete with the mighty 197, however, my old 172 which would quite comfortably be quicker than a 197 in a straight line got passed by a modified ibiza tdi one night. so i dont see what the confusion is, of course a mega torque...

    it was a joke, a dci is in no way a comparison to a 172!

    19 in 6 months, what car to get?

    agreed to a certain extent but as long as the car is getting good use for other drives rather than to work and back then it wont be a problem. my old 190 brake 172 got used daily to go 1.5 miles to work and 1.5 miles back from work 7 days a week but it also got plenty other use and aloud to warm...

    lol at all the people saying you will kill yourself in the clio 182 SUPER CAR!!! maby if it was a 320bhp turbo rear wheel drive car you would kill yourself, you would need to be a mongo to crash something as predictable as a clio! i had my 172 when i was just about to turn 18, cost me a bomb...

    a potentially stupid question bout oil change

    just take it out for a good blast before you change the oil and get plenty oil temperature in it, will drain better after that.

    Relocating battery - Intake ideas

    thats the best setup you can do above ^ again ideally with a ph1/v6 airbox on it as its better. the bit ive circled red acts as a cold air duct when the grille is all fitted in place taking loads of cold air to the battery area as thats where the standard setup takes its cool air from so...

    172 problem

    they are very lumpy on idle and the exhaust splutters on idle especially when cold but they always do it even when warm. however you shouldnt really feel the car vibrate a great deal at all unless you have uprated engine mounts assuming the engines running ok so my guess would be as above check...

    Whos done an engine conversion in essex? Help needed

    to convert a diesel to a petrol is really not worth it with the ammount of work required, thats before we get to the fact its a better engine your removing!! now, for MUCH less hastle and money you could buy the dci65 van, use a set of dci 80/100 (same on both) injectors, DCi 100 Turbo, DCi...
