    Best Recovery Service?

    Dont understand why you wouldnt want it looked at tho. Blown fuses, loose bolts, flat battery etc all simple stuff that can be fixed easily.

    Best Recovery Service?

    Normally 'Roadside' Gives you 10mile tow, home or garage. 'Recovery' takes you anywhere. You can have 'Roadside' and then pay per mile if and when needed

    Best Recovery Service?

    Best avoiding AA/RAC then. They will only recover if it cannot be fixed at roadside, not because you dont want it fixed

    Best Recovery Service?

    To the OP, so you dont want anyone to try and fix you at roadside? You said just take you home. If thats what you want then there are companys out there that do that. RAC/AA exist to try and fix you there and then. Thats why there can be a price difference sometimes. get what you pay for etc...

    Cant find it, It was a little place tucked away in a side street. Used them 3 times now, always been spot on. They run a fleet of astras, used to pay £85 for the week. The wife found them as she can Google in Polish ;)

    Taking the 172 on a 4500mile road trip, do I dare?!?

    I'll try and find the web address for the company we use in Krakow. Its a local Polish company not a multi national, very good rates. They are in the centre of Krakow but its easy to get to

    Chase Racing Clio Build Blog (TinTops Entry)

    As said all info is on website. 195/50R15 Dunlop Direzza. Direct from Dunlop (Mr tyre motorsport) Nothing wrong with R888 or Yoko A048 either. As Tony says 16's will cost loads more

    Taking the 172 on a 4500mile road trip, do I dare?!?

    Did 3000 in 2 weeks around Europe. Took a tyre pressure gauge to check them at food/fuel stops and that was it. Car was faultless. Driven Poland to Tewkesbury (or Tewkesbury to Poland) in one go many times. Just over 1K miles takes 18hrs with ferry. Driving will be easy till u get out of...

    Testing the next generation Honda Civic (BTCC content)

    Not alot of nice things said about the company who built the early NGTC cars

    Testing the next generation Honda Civic (BTCC content)

    Some S2000 cars still in it. Altho with NGTC power. Focus, Vectra, WSR BMW's and the Golf. At this stage no one is running a NA engine. Last year proved its pointless. Full NGTC cars ae Civic, MG, Avensi and Insignia. The Audi and Proton's not confirmed but should be there

    Icemans Britcar Endurance project 182

    I stuck it all in the gear calculator a while back. the company in Italy that does final drives only had one that would be lower than stock. Yes, you would end up changing gears alot. Better off just changing 5th like we did. will only need it at Snett and possibly combe. (think we used it at...
