DCi106!

apparently ford were doing new shape Ka's for something silly like £69 a month, citroen were doing something similar on their aygo like thing!

if you can do it youself, get an engine for a couple hundred quid and get it remapped for less than 300, your paying £500 for over 15bhp and around 20lbft, not bad for an N/A car bhp per £

as long as the car is no older than 5yrs when the term finishes as far as i know so yes as long as its upto 2yrs old

my old one...

needs to be a diesel. they are awesome i had one for a year. 1.6 16v petrol is gutless and no cheaper to run than the RS 1.5 DCi has bags of torque, its bullet proof, does 55mpg daily.

you sure ;)

straight swap engine and remap 1.4 ecu. done!

i think its probably to make it easier to drive around town at slow speeds, as it is as mark says a bit better higher up the rev range. its more like driving a cable throttle car when using heel and toe you have to give it a proper stab, my GT with the same pedal setup had razor sharp throttle...

162lbft on a standard engine am i reading that correct? lol

im game for another RR, id like to go back to falkland as most of us have been before so it gives more consistent results to compaire to and there rollers read spot on, or atleast for most of us! until we broke them lol

im with scott. throttle responce is shocking on it, not sure if its something that can be mapped out

my W, 51, 02, 03, 53 & 54 plate were all 17mm hex with a torx centre lol! bit of penetrating fluid on the bolts from the underside of the car, leave for 5 minutes and remove, either that or impact gun! once removed, refit the bolts or you will have a leaking car lol!

seems to be a bit issue with the internet these days, instead of a decent in depth convo it turns into childish name calling lol!

hit the nail on the head

i just had to search for about 20 minutes to find this, i had it saved from when we had the exact same argument in about 2005 on here haha!

ive only briefly read though this but i cant understand how some people think the manifold is at fault when it works on some cars and not on others.... now unless the engineering tollerances are huge and one manifold is completely different to another (id bet £1000 on that not being the case!)...

i was under the impression all ph1 sports were 1.2 16v though not 1.2 8v?

the good old RR meats at falkland in feb were good!

yep climate is standard on the normal 200, along with cruise control (not sure if that was standard on the 197?)

my old workhorse Thinkpad T43 runs Windows 7 ultimate just as well as it ran its previous Windows XP pro, i do like how simple XP is to use, only because i spent years working with it daily and ive honestly never had a proper in depth play with win 7, i just turn it on, open IE9 and go on the...

these will be a mint 2nd hand bargain for a track car in 5 years time when they are worth £1000 due to needing a paint job lol!

very very nice, i was offered a brand new nimbus one when i bought my blue one, however i couldnt find a picture of a 200 in one and didnt want to take the risk! especially when the blue one was sitting infront of me and looked awesome in the flesh, wish i had now haha!

stupid fuckin cat, phone the RSPCA see if you can track down the owner and invoice them for your new parts.

wish i had a dad like you when i was younger lol!

elf evolution sxr, i steal the 1 litre top up bottles out our driving school cars amd build up a stash!

a lot of the fun in a track car is the preping and mantinace though rather than renting. personally id go for a ph1 as your getting a lighter car, they are cheap to buy, already have 15" wheels for cheap track rubber, , cable throttle gives a better driving experiance and they have a better mid...

i must just be lucky i use programs and features that dont suffer from bugs. funny you should say that ive just sold a macbook with win 7 on it!

didnt windows stop being buggy since windows xp or am i missing something lol

part number for they seats? lol!!
