Couldn't get featured by a proper mag then...

Nice one... plenty of Clios out there!

Wow, i think you've beaten your normal 4 posts per year quota there. Time to hide again? ;) -Rob

Is an ITG filter really good VFM? You get nothing out of it really... i wish i hadn't bothered. I'd basically get a new cat back. You get better throttle response, nicer noise, shed a few KG with no middle silencer and might get a bit of power if you got a de-cat as well. Should always be the...

You'd need a hub conversion as they won't fit otherwise.

Yes, they will be supported by McLaren. I got loads of gossip from Prodrive today! Also found out Ben Elliott is the Stig! Richards has had arab investors for donkeys years, money was never an issue really.

I don't like it. I think you guys are getting a semi on because it's a novelty. What is moonstone then?

The Focus's make the CTR look so pony. Awesome looking cars.

I see you are a born BMW driver Thomas... There was the Prodrive fettled AMV8 driving about actually. Prodrive will have an F1 team next season so it will be interesting to see if it will become an Aston Martin!

Yes, Warwick, about 15 miles from the actual Prodrive centre. If you buy a Mazda RX8 or MX5 this is where they take you for the free training day. Some info here... http://www.driverdp.com/ Good value i thought.

Had an awesome time at their wet weather training course today! No more than 2 people per instructor for the whole day, i'd really recommend it if you have a RWD. v

I'll give him something to gag on.

Well that is a CSL, so not quite the same. With the sticky tyres that came with it on a short circuit the CSL is as quick as a Noble M12. That Z-Tune is insane though! Standard M3 is quicker round a track than an M5. Bit obvious that it's slower in a straightline...

Vid doesn't work for me either... "For us, however, it does, and that’s why, by the thinnest of margins, the 197 remains our choice." I personally think it looks awful. I wouldn't care if it was the best car, i'd be too embarrased to get in one.

I thought about you too. That was last night though. I'm looking forward to donning my tight fitting t-shirt and fake tan soon!

Yeah, bubble wrap as the seats were wet...lol. You got the steering wheel right there, it is 330mm. VX has a much smaller one! I do aim to 'blacken' all the silver bits at some point, perhaps after summer. Eventually will get some nitrons and i'd love some black OZs too.

Thanks mate. It's been polished so looks ok there. Front needs a respray but i was told Rabiata is impossible to match being a two pack colour. A full respray is £3.3k so i'm leaving it! I paid £9.4k, it has covered 30k. There is a slight tear in one of the seats and i'm replacing brakes/tyres.

I have taken the deposit for the Clio today. I'll be sad to see it go but i was starting to get itchy feet so thought i'd get a VX220 for the summer and see how i cope! It is a scruffy example but i didn't pay much, so i'm spending a bit on getting it tidied up and also getting an exhaust...

Dave Richards and Co bought them eariler in the week. Wonder how much AM cost...? Hope Bez stays in.
