Decent suspension and I could see the logic. But GAZ? No ta.

Angle grinder? Why? Same subframe as 1*2's surely??

Seen this in the flesh, the exhausts are hilarious. You could sleep in them n

The Europa was a decent car. Shame about it's noise though! Was setting off the noise meter at Bedford with the standard exhaust. Wasn't loud, but pops/bangs on the downshift.

In all honesty, I'd ask why you want them. Imho, track days aren't about going as fast as possible, it's about having a ball on track. I didn't find r888's any more 'fun' than the rs2 tyre, still track oriented (so they didn't go off in the way a road tyre can on track) but less grippy (ie more...

Exactly. Can't polish a turd, so go for the better equipped turd.

Problem being, with the Elise/exige range they haven't sold enough. The purist approach is admirable, but there aren't enough people out there willing to spend the cash on it. Hence tvr no longer being with us, and lotus taking a different approach. I'd love to see the lotus approach to a hot...

Great 'fun' little cars, but hideous looking. I'd go for the yellow one on spec! Then probably get the wheels done anthracite/black.

Trophy recaro's must have the vibration washers removed, otherwise they aren't low enough!

Agree with everything the jew bear said.

Sorry fella, I didn't mean they'd cost £500 to rebuild, just that if he sells the ast's and buys ktec, he'd probably be about £500 better off than having the ast's rebuilt.

That looks fucked lol! Shiny bits, dark bits, ruined!

Probably listened to the wrong people ;)

Exactly! Having them built to his spec won't exactly be cheap, he'd probably pocket £4-500 from a swap for ktec's. And if he's not going on track, is there any point in pricey suspension? Unless being low is a priority, I'd go back to standard!

Gaz, you really should get your arse over here quicksmart to try the KW's. Brilliant.

Lol at tuktuk. I'll be too busy sticking Damon hill stickers to schumachers car/garage/face.

You asked what they cleaned. I told you. Wanker ;). (don't forget to shower)

I'll try and dig up an old article I found. Tested on an z3m coupe, Honda ctr. Stuck a borescope in the engines. Were noticeably cleaner (the valves and piston's iirc) with the super brands.

Agreed. Why go lengths that render the car useless in other situations?

Iirc Ali has one on his Vee, and the only way around he's found to keep it looking well is to avoid touching the blue section!

Suede is full stop a bad idea on a road car. It will f**k up and get shiney. Even the one pictured is at 3/9o'clock. This was under 6months use

200 wheel is no smaller than standard 1*2 wheel. I had a momo race on my 172, loved it.

On the 200 it says 95/98.

I imagine if the OP puts up a sale thread looking for a swap with H&R's or KW's, he'd have no problem shifting them.

And you did give them a fair old drive on 'the route' ;).

I was in a similar situation. Went for KW V2's, never looked back.

The 200 idles and runs better on vpower, noticeable flat spots on 95. Even if there was no difference in how it runs, I'd still use it for the cleaning properties.

Nice car, but an auto Porsche seems so wrong.

Hate ly on these, but great car. Enjoy!

200 owners clearly don't give a f**k about the looks of a car, so someone will! Only option would be buy it, blacks wheels, mirrors etc.
