Few more shots taken today as the weather has been nice and sunny. Treated the car to a wash, polish and wax then proceeded to get stuck on the lawn as it was rather muddy, thus ruining the tyre shine I'd put on :/
Just before I got stuck after moving the clio to clean the saxo:
In the scotlands area, parked up outside a house with about 3/4 R5 GTTs outside. Seems the guy restores them, any one know if he is on this website? Havent ever seen so many Renault hot hatches in one place, plus the standard 5 Raider he has looks great
Remember seeing this on saturday just gone, was driving across a field/farm track by the M54 motorway bridge. Can only imagine they were out getting shots as I dont know why you'd take a 182 across a field!
Re: What did you drive before Clios
Austin metro
Rover metro 1.1
Metro gti and Metro gti 1.6/1.8
Metro gti vvc (had a few of these)
Land rover discovery 300 tdi
1.1 106
Saxo VTR for track days
182
Seen this morning about 845am on goldthorn hill in Wolverhampton. Was mondial blue and had a black bonnet but standard 172 wheels 5 spoke. 53 plate I think so is anyone from here?
I'll get it checked out when I get the wheels aligned but they arent wearing badly on the shoulders etc. Theres only one compound of T1Rs if I remember correctly from where I bought them, as my 888s on my track saxo came with 3 different compound options when I purchased those.
They are not totally totally bald but are down to the wear markers and I've noticed the handling is going a bit squiffy when its damp which I'm not happy with so they are coming off. I've ordered a new pair but I think I'll have the tracking looked at when I put them on, just wanted to know...
Just wondering what every else has got out of a T1Rs on an RS Clio? My car isn't driven particularly hard as its a road car and I've just got through a front set in 4500 miles - whats everyone else getting/got?
All of this was between 3 and 5pm
Monaco 172 parked in the Scotlands in wolves
Then a arctic182 non cup on the orbital
Who I had a play with
Arctic 53 plate 182 cup over hednesford way by chadsmoore
Rb 197 out on on the wolverhampton road near longford
Then finally another arctic 182 with cup...
Saw the black 172 about 5.15pm near the kfc in walsall, by J10 m6 and the 197 on coalway road near warstones in wolves. Could have been rob, wasnt sure it was racing blue though or the metallic blue
Yes cup springs will sort you out mate, however they dont "drop" it as much as say sportlines do which in my opinion offer the best performance/looks combo (before going to coil overs etc)
