Car mode engaged. Sauces Booze Michelin suit, blanket and pillow ready. Also, plasti-cheese See you all soon!!!'nnn'nbbb!!!!!

Y'see, I never had that problem ;) I just have to deal with soluble metal in the wings & sills instead

or... or, this time in red That said, I didn't realise Mk.1s had black sills as standard, in which case, yes, hammerite those rusty buggers

wider wheels? For a 118hp car? Behave ;) But I know what you mean, the daisies aren't the nicest design. Worth holding onto, but some OEM 15s would be a good move :)

Picnic blanket. plastic glasses bottles of fizz. michelin man suit listerine car-mode roof. plasti-cheese, some rolls, some sauces for TheEvilGiraffe £10 for the food bank all this I must sort out tomorrow morning

So pauper, but it is a good way to keep your sills in vaguely good order. I'd suggest a f*&^-ton of hammerite / other protective paint,then prep the surface and repaint in body colour. But I don't know about painting stuff, so that may be a bad idea

I'm scared to see what (inevitably) is going to happen to this ;)

and a puddle of sick will be just inside the doorway by 1am ;)

part ex?

To get in your tent is that well bent? Oh cheers yeah. Looks like I should end up there for about 5 ish. Might slack off quali and head over earlier, TheEvilGiraffe could let me know if signal is good enough to pull off a decent Sky Go connection. Last year was a proper struggle to get bars

That was the was it was when I was working with the DPA section for a network only 2 years ago. Why, cannot say, just was the way. I did question the logic for pretty much the exact reason you raised, but it's the way. DPA has exclusions, is all I can recall from a conversation years ago that...

As PM'd. If you cant get the message content from your phone it'll take police intervention for the networks to release them.

I'd lose the word "mods". Just because it smacks of chavracer. But depends who you're trying to appeal to I suppose. Ideally I'd be putting the car back to as close to standard as possible, you can always off-load the "go-faster" bits on here for an extremely over-inflated price. You'll also...

48 hours to Wapner

Clios turn to brown flakey piles

I only need room for a couple of bottles ;)

Are there plans for a big bin full of ice / cold water?

thats what they all say

If it was my money, and using an Alpine head unit:- These in the front (much less agro as you dont need to fit crossovers) these in the back this behind the dash (why go through wiring an amp in, this will just clip into the loom, powering all 4 corners too) this under the passenger seat (or...

Neef? The lass that had her rear end and exhaust cheesed? The one that Ant went off to Tescos for for an hour, came back and did up his trousers?

I'm putting the hardtop on, does that count?

yeah, looks like a 1/2 done job at the moment with the fronts all tucked in. If it was my car (its not, granted), I'd raise the front so I could get the spacing. That way I'd get less plough-ahead when turning the steering wheel, AND, as a bonus, some suspension travel.

The stereo will be the weakest link unfortunately. Not easy to connect to stuff and quite a weak output. You can run a little sub, most have "speaker level" inputs but I'm not sure how these work, ideally you'd want an RCA signal to run it off of.

Then see how you get along with that my good man :) In your headunit, switch on the high-pass filter, this'll leave the sub to deal with the lows and the speakers can focus on what they do best.

So are you going to space out the fronts now, or just enjoy the extra understeer? ;)

If you expect a night/day difference, you're going to be disappointed. The only problem with the speakers is that 5.25" inch is too small to create any kind of useful bass. The OEM speakers will be fine with headunit power and better components will need amping to be of any noticeable benefit...

thats like asking which is better, Pepsi or Coca Cola. B&H or Marlboro. bewbs or butts. Horses for courses, basically. But for your clio unless you're planning on fitting an amp, the standard kit is as good as you'll need. Oherwise, Focal/Hertz would get my money

ah, good point, missed that. Not sure, best off calling up an Alpine stockist and asking them. If it was a tenner for the lead I'd say take a punt but it's not.

Depends on how much you value social dignity really. It's not as if a 4-pot Clio has a pleasant engine note. 'Loud' is not the same as 'Better'

If you junk one of your fog lights and run a cold air feed, you might get almost 0.5hp of gains. Being a touch more positive, look up the Espace V6 airbox mod. From what I hear, it's the way forward...buit may only be for old-shape 172s
