cheap and fun basically and of all the hot hatches the look and feel of them stands out. I've owned fiestas/corsas/polos and none really stood out. even the basic 1.2/1.4 etc clios are fun to drive. brand loyalty a bit too, I like what Renault sort of stands for, less of the stigmata...

can never have enough, fact

the willy wheels on then George? pics required I feel ;)

I get high mileage envy, I want mine to be highest!lol!

this, my 182 is on about same, 120k, and the engines a peach.

bout time you guys landed here as well ;)

old thread bump or what, lol!

I always use part worns, it doesn't take a rocket scientist to look for defects etc before you buy and use a bit of common sense to find good rubber at a fraction of the price of new. however, I wouldn't change just one tyre, pairs only, and I sure as hell would make sure they're balanced.

which parcels that chap?

I've had issues with Crucial's, the standard 2.5" don't like Lenovo laptops and cause all sorts of issues and same goes for the mSATA version in Toshiba ultrabooks. so stick to Samsung now

do you ever stop buying cars? do you every drive any of them? ;)

as above, I bombed 2 sandforces few years back when they were really dodgy so I'd avoid ;) Samsung's are a good shout, use them at work a lot now and very very reliable

nice progress chap :)

really like these, great looking little cars

Bloody gorgeous!

Daz - FU ;) its never having side strips and I loved the white wheels ;) but they are gone now, too much to look after! and the willy wheels I have on the 182 are destined for the turbo now its going road spec, so fear not. I did have it on willy wheels years back too #Daz.

but no clio driver is an idiot......we know this and my wheels never falle.......oh wait :o

ah yeah, forgot the 200 had 40,000 lb/ft and required 5 stud

#95 #128

I reckon just try and put the actual Williams wheels on for the giggle. get an idea of colour against the white then as well I fitted gold willy wheels to my grey mark 1, looked toss, the colours just didn't sit together right!lol!

bad times Paul, such a shame your selling see you back here in a 3 months yeah looking for a 'cuz track car project' phase 1 ;)

your finally keeping it? good lad......................4k on boost next then ;)

good to meet you chap, enjoy the mounts and the car looked very clean :)

no mate, lol! sold those a long long time ago (possibly in a galaxy far far away as well) these were another set from my stock! ;)

nice wheels, you selling them ;) Rossy, as pm'd mate, she's just off the road for a year or so pending other projects :)

as above, I'd make sure the new garage has the right credentials to work on these engines! don't want to get burned twice

yeah they should do the job. I usually opt for the stress relief option of hammer a screwdriver through it and bash it undone....however its not strictly recommended as if the end of the filter breaks away completely first, your in a bit of a pickle I wouldn't like to get a novice into ;) lol!

bet we don't, I use Matlock as I pass it everyday on the way to work, only occasionally do I go to the Ripley one i'f I'm heading out that way ;)

I used Sainsbury's high octane as its usually the closest, but tbh its just the high RON stuff at whatever garage forecourt I happen to pull into when I need fuel I wouldn't go hunting miles just for vPower in particular is my point

ai, second hand engine can be had for 200 needing belts if you shop about, as engines out the car belts are bit easier so should keep the garage bills down (presume your going to use a garage as sounds like 1600 is a garage price)
