i still like the 1.2 dynamique (spelling) which is a y reg with clio cup in the back window, and a sport badge,
for those who havent seen it its monaco blue,
so its totally the wrong colur blue
it has night rider strobes in the grille now ,
what a piece of sh*t
(and if it belongs...
a fiesta zetec s is below group 10 (i think its some thing like 8)
but they arent that quick, as the power delivery never seems to come.
i think a vtr is a better bet, or a new clio.
i have to agree as well, most of the mags are getting sh!t, and i feel the cars appear to be of a lesser quality, (dont get me wrong there are some nice examples out there but there appear to be more sheds)
i appreciate that people are after one offs and trying new ideas, but in most cases...
it depends on which xr2i it is, from g reg they are 1.6 cvh, and up to early j reg,
a late j reg on wards is an 1800 which i think is a zetec lump, the 1800 is slower than the 1600, and its a 16v where as the 1600 is only 8 valve.
the times do not vary by much though, but a 1600 is high 8...
I was insured with them as well, before i got my 16v all i had to do was put in writing what id done to it (wheels etc) but no engine mods, and they said it wouldnt change and i never got stung.
they wanted a lot to insure a 16v though as i was 21, so i left them.
The thing is that only those who have half an idea about cars will know what engine is in a 1.8 16v as it does nt say it, they probably think its a 1200 like their nova.
still those light up washer jets do give an extra 50 bhp so watch out guys !
ha ha
the charade was a red J reg with 3 or 4 people in it,i couldnt count them as i was watching the road.
i asked one of blokes i was with how fast they are and he said that they are quite quick to 60 but i would do it on top end, i never got to see once i d left it as i sh*t my self
the clio...
On my way back from south end last nite 3 up in my standard 1.8 16v, following a phase 1 white clio with wheels etc, not a 16v or any thing,
get to national and i leave it, a bloke on a moped sticks to my bumper and then this charade turbo sticks to my bumper so i pull into the left lane and...
I agree the 106 rallye is bloody fast since it ways about as much as an empty crisp packet, they are the nuts but very sparce,
i have been in both the phase 1 and 2 and the gti and there doesnt seem to be much difference, and they stick to the road like sh*t to a blanket.
thanks for your help, now i know which ones you mean,
do they have a spinning collar around the top (above the thread) ?
as my wheel nuts have,
thanks cat171
I have the same problem, it does not even seem to get warm only for a few secs when i shut the vents and then open them.
the blower motor went, so i replaced it and then the heating disappeared !!
ive flushed it and bled it as well and its had a new thermostat cos i thought it might be...
I always use the kids spaces, may seem greedy now but one day ill use them for real so i may as well get in the practise !
i was in southend last sat night and the stupid bird next to me hit the door wiv her f*cking saxo while we were in it, got straight out 2 have a look, but it was fine...
whoa !
never seen black leather before,
mines got grey, the only problems are that its cold in winter and your back sweats in the summer,
still at least it looks phat !
I managed to talk my mate out of it but only when we got there,
he lost his £100 deposit and the bloke wanted payment for the "work" he had done (i dont know what) which cost an extra £50
so he has sp*nked out £150 with nothing to show,
the main reason was that the bloke "could not...
its supposed to be set up on a rolling road, which is why is costs so much apparently
he has been told that is not a piggy back one
my mate took it there yesterday and he was there ages with it, before he was told he would need the regulator
i asked my mate about the graph and he said the...
i thought it was a lot of money cos its not exacltly slow,
i might try to convince him to sell iy and buy a 172!
does any one know if he he is being had over,
its not a piggy back chip but a full one, the other thing is he wont get a graph
he asked but the bloke said "i can draw you...
I know its the wrong forum put i wanted a quicker response,
ive done a search about chipping but cant find much
basically its for a mate who has a 106 gti, its got a filter and cat back zorst, otherwise its standard
he went to have it unichipped and was told the fuel pressure wouldnt be...
Cheers mate,
ive had it 6 months and really like it,
i dont think that it gets the respect it deserves and a lot of people underestimate them.
wouldnt mind a 172 tho (aswell)
i live in romford and some people have got really bad taste round here, usually 1.2 novas though
i wouldnt mind but the snide cup was a mark 1
and in the wrong blue.
i was in tescos car park the other day when i saw a fake cup,
it was a 1.2 in monaco blue wiv, clio cup in yellow stickers stuck on the outside of the back window & a sport badge
it had 13 inch oz f1s and plastic covers over the back lights,
i thought they had done it as a joke cos...
if u think thats bad me and my mate got done by a woman in a citroen picasso, in his xr3i
needless to say his car ground to a halt a week later.
piece of sh*t
