    The Runabout

    Or not sporty at all.. like a double-negative, it cancels itself out.

    182 brakes on a 1.2 16v?

    Probably the most pointless thing to do to a Clio.. the 1.2's are massively over-braked as it is. If you're struggling to stop, suggest you just get new pads & discs to suit, and take a look at your tyres. 182 brakes look miserable anyway, if you're doing this for show I bet not many people...

    Insurance cost!

    Or how to start your own insurance company... #Havana #LestWeForget These are just about the only threads on the whole forum that don't end up with people shouting random mpg figures at each other. But because I know someone will ask, 30s on a run IIRC.

    Mini Meet Pics - Zed, Toledo & Wagon Content..

    Have I done the right thing ?

    Blue with silver wheels (tbh black wheels on blue isn't too bad!) and that's how I'd have one :up:

    Build dilemma

    Do a track day as is. See how you get on. Buy some tuition. Then, Stripping the car will make the sq.rt of FA difference apart to your hearing / sanity, on a normal track day.

    @Pacman. brother does a very decent job of PDR .. think a few bods have used him - @Phase1sr perhaps..? @Dr Jekyll ? .. Based in Harlow. Failing that IIRC, @Herr Flick (why does your name change daily!?) has a very good repair guy that he used to work with/for/or employed ?

    Audi S3, mk1 TT, R26 ex/owners

    Loans, credit cards, robbing post offices.. still got both kidneys ? If you are going to take another year to save (as per the 5k post above) another grand - is it a good idea to get a more expensive car ?! What happens when you need a pair of tyres or something... Obvs. I don't know your...

    15" winter tyre sizes

    Just run standard sizes. Make sure you're aware they aren't as effective at lower tread depths.. unless you're on a mega tight budget, if you're keeping the car for a while, just get some new ones. Even at £100 a corner, that's a far cheaper cost than ending up in the back of someone, or in a...

    Clio 182 Water Leak - Very Wet Carpet

    Is your boot carpet wet ? The bump stop bungs will leak and fill the spare wheel well over time. As you haven't got a wheel well it could be coming forward... Even if that's not wet - Open the bootlid and you'll see two 20mm circular bungs. Take them out (carefully pinch from inside) and...
