Depends entirely on budget.
My friend has just had AST's fitted and set up by the man Curtis, and it's unbelievable.
But if you don't want to spend £2k+ then something like Bilsteins are a fair compromise but are a little soft if you're an out and out track man.
Avoid any of the crap like...
I must say, with that RNA day and the overtaking 'rules' it strangely seemed to work??
We had a mare in the wet too. He ended up on max soft on the rear and down to about 25psi just to try and get some grip. It's a properly greasy circuit in the wet.
Was it an RNA day?
Me and Sam went to one and there was all sorts of £million£ stuff. A special mclaren, a 918, championship winning GT3 RS....
and the allow overtaking without consent. Anywhere.
So basically, if you have a fast car you can just go round and round pushing people out the way! Lol
Grey Clip just pulls out.
Powder coating it will increase your intake temperatures so if you're chasing power/performance at any point it will have a negative effect.
I love them on paper but a good mate had one, we even did a track day or two in it, and it's very soulless.
I'd class it as a fast commuting car. Which I expect what you're using it for is perfect!
Get some leather guard on those seats ASAP. They will be the colour of your suit within a week...
£1200 will buy you a half tidy 182.
If you 'convert' a 1.4 it will be worthless when you come to move it on.
Coming from a man that has been wasting money on cars for 20+ years, don't do it.
I genuinely have a lump in my throat.
My first holiday with my now wife was in that car, back in about 2005!
It had 26,000 miles on it iirc.
I paid £5,500 for it from the Renault dealer where I worked. It was on the forecourt for £6999.
1. No. it's a private sale from a private individual.
2. You can but their contract was with the person that paid them the money so they're perfectly entitled to not help you.
3. Yes unfortunately.
Look up 'Arkonik'
I recently got offered a job there but had to turn it down as it's just a bit too far away. (An hour each way assuming there's no traffic, realistically 90 minutes each way)
They build some of the best trucks I've ever seen. Their attention to detail (and their workshops!)...
They're nothing like they used to be. The era of solidly built E46's and E39's are a distant memory to them now.
The new 1/2/3/4 series' feel so cheap it's unreal.
My dad had a 535d and when the lease was up for renewal, he drove a 2 coupe, a 3 touring and a 4 Gran Coupe and ended up getting a...
It's a sport not an M-Sport.
(Pedantic I know, but true)
Nice car though. The E46's have aged very well. Unlike the E9x shapes, they are starting to look very dated.
The chances are I sold that when it was new.
I was the 'Renault sport specialist' at our dealership in 2004-2008. And our dealerships primary reg was WRxxxxx
A pointless fact for you there!
