Insurance group for 200T will be 29. Outgoing 200 is 30. Raider/Silverstone are 31.

So it just made you l? LOL

Interesting that brakes were more than adequate on track and he didn't once mention the gear change time/reaction in that Evo review.

I'd say it's an automatic 'box with manual selection if desired. Yes it will prevent a downshift which would cause it to disintegrate (exactly the same as a maximum rpm limiter stops over revving), no it won't auto up-shift if you hit the limiter. Yes there seems to be a delay between request...

I thought we'd already covered this? "RS gearbox is rubbish because you can't downshift in a way which would harm it". LOL Using this argument any car with a rev limiter is useless as you can't try to rev it to 10k and blow the engine up. Do rev limiters ruin the driving experience? Should...

FLOL, what point are you making? Is it that because there's two paddles you might need to take both hands off the wheel at the same time? Using a stick takes longer and you have to move your hand further. The stick itself will be in a different place as well depending on what gear you're in...

How is moving hands to find a paddle any different from taking a hand off to find a gear lever? Manual mode on race settings = no automatic upshift.

I can't see how column mounted is an issue. I'm used to taking my hand completely off the wheel and moving a big stick a few inches already...how hard is it to find a paddle that's always in the exact same place behind the wheel every single time I need it? If taking your hands off the wheel...

FWD/RWD

I think the comparison with the GT86 is absolutely valid. That's because I've been swaying back and forth between the two for some time now..depending on my mood...racing driver or Dad. I think the father in me will win though as the back seat usability of the '86 is almost non existent.

Odd that it's never played up before despite regular jet-washing. Useful to know it'll show up on diagnostics though...can read codes etc on my phone so could always take a look. A very helpful member on here has already sent me the Renault technical fault finding document from diologies for...

Just been out to try it with my able bodied assistant strolling back and forth, left to right at varying distances, and all seems OK now. Very strange.

Engaged reverse yesterday and instead of the usual short beep I got a continuous tone. Checked there was nothing behind, cleaned the sensors, tried again and got exactly the same. Went for a drive, reversed out of a parking space and got the usual short beep when engaging gear, but it no longer...

Seems like a Nexus 4 it is then.

Given the S4 announcement recently, is this still the best android handset out there?

Ha ha ha. Wouldn't have believed that if I'd not seen the video. Astonishing incompetence.

Apart from needing new front ball joints from being overly greedy with kerbs on track, mine has been faultless over the 24k miles I've covered in it.

Nope.

What I have in mind is; Lux pack Monitor Leather Heated seats Rear camera Cup chassis

LOL, no thanks. The only new car I've had (my 172 Cup) was driven 300 miles before being delivered to me at my place of work late one Friday night. I want something new with collection from a dealer. I have to do that once in my life.

With PCP you're paying new car 'depreciation' for 3 years. Rinse and repeat. New car 'depreciation' ad infinitum. I don't like monthly charges...would rather pay in a lump instead of having something bleeding out of my account for month after month after month. Not fussed about having something...

Would want a decent top end spec for the £22k. I can justify buying one if I keep it for a long time like I did with my 172 Cup, so whatever I buy needs enough creature comforts and gizmos to keep me entertained, comfortable and happy. Will look at Focus/Megane and similar sized motors but if...

Wait, dk has a 55? Is that the v8 one? No way!

Well, the spec I want comes in north of 22 big ones. Slightly insane to even consider that but recent events have made me realise life can be far too short, so it is likely to happen as long as the test drive doesn't leave me feeling cold. Given the fact I should consider all serious...

So many varied opinions out there, people can pretty much cherry pick whichever one suits their 'position'. I for one like what Chris Harris has to say...it's focussed and fun, lively and comfortable, adjustable and fast.

LOL Weight (loss) is everything! Also helped that my inlets were pretty much bang on from the factory...I got a good'un.

Y-e-a-h...

Fabulously succinct Chip. Never thought of it like that, makes perfect sense.

No, it isn't. 80 mph is 4k rpm, 70 mph is more like 3.5k rpm.
