    What's your favourite car related YouTube channel?

    His Dad has only recently joined the channel. Well probably been over a year now, I think he became a full time addition when he bought the Lambo that needed the engine rebuilding. It's funny as if you look back in this thread, most people on here seemed to say they hated his videos not too...

    Restoring Little Bluey - my 182 FF ClioSport in Racing Blue

    Think the steering wheel QR I had was 70mm deep, so with the bucket seats as low as possible, it was a really comfortable fit for me. I've still got my bucket seat and subframe in the garage in case I get another (the 172 cup up this week was tempting). Bought a Z4 3.0si, as I fancied another...

    Restoring Little Bluey - my 182 FF ClioSport in Racing Blue

    Sorting the driving position out with better seats and a smaller steering wheel is a must on these cars in my opinion. The standard seats and steering wheel ruin the car for me. Though I am 6 foot 3, so that doesn't help. And it's not like it couldn't be put back to standard in a day anyway. I...

    The New Phone Thread

    Not looked at my wife's yet, but I've done mine a number of times now to try and resolve. Potentially doing this sooner would have helped

    The New Phone Thread

    So my Pixel 6 Pro has had issues with the usb c port for probably 6 months plus now, I've been making do with using a charging pad at night, but when using the phone for a sat nav when on longer journeys and out all day long it's starting to become an issue. Phone is coming up to 2 years old now...

    Quick release flat wheel

    I bought a cheap Motamec from ktec. Originally I bought an OMP wheel for round £175, but sent it back as I wasn't happy with the stitching and finish. The Motamec was around £65, and was pretty decent for the money. It seemed just as strong as all my previous OMP wheels...

    What are your thoughts on the Pro Max? I'm tempted to switch over from my Pixel Pro at some point to a Pro Max, mainly for the LiDAR scanner, as it'll be useful when on site to gather measurements. But only ever had Android phones.

    Yozzasport options

    Standard CAT will definitely reduce the noise levels. I found that when I switched over to a Magnaflow 200 cell sports cat welded into a decat pipe, that it made very little difference. Not sure if the cheaper aftermarket replacements are any better at reducing the noise. You could also add a...

    Pretty sure it's Google's only watch, but could be wrong. Was released with the Pixel 7 Pro, so is current. It's the LTE model and is the Silver stainless steel case, with chalk active strap https://store.google.com/gb/product/google_pixel_watch?hl=en-GB&pli=1 £379 new on there, but I don't...

    Is going from Clio 182 to a Fiesta ST a good move?

    I've looked at the Fiesta ST a few times over the years now, and with a remap they look really good value for the performance and running cost. One thing that has put me off a little is the number of stolen ST's though. Not sure if they're pinpointed for any particular reason, or just easy to steal?

    Hopgop1's RB 182

    Want to buy your old one back? still mint I'm going to switch to 15's, and some stickier tyres I think. Definitely look good in that colour against the RB.

    Decent RS garage in Coventry area?

    Diamond Motors in Long Eaton, Nottingham if that's not too far away. Heard nothing but good things on here and the FB groups for the 10+ years I've been a member, and he's been brilliant whenever I've taken anything to him. Got my Clio 182 booked in for cambelt, dephaser, etc later this month too.

    Eibach Springs - Sportline vs Pro-Kit

    I've had Standard springs, Pro-line (albeit a long time ago), Cooksports, and now Grams. Honestly not noticed much of a difference between any of them. The ride is pretty harsh when compared to something a bit more modern. Perhaps if you're only driving the Clio you'd notice it a little more...

    Yokohama AD09

    Looks likes these are going to be a very good replacement for the old AD08's, 5 to 6 seconds faster around Silverstone in Darkside's 125d compared to AD08RS's Don't seem to be available in 195/50/15, but are in 205/50/15 and 205/45/16.

    Finally got my 182 back 😁

    I tried to talk my wife into one of these a few times. But no luck just yet. Think they remap up to around 150bhp too, so would be pretty fun to drive at that power I don't think I could own a 182 with standard seats and steering wheel. First things I purchased for my current 182 was a smaller...

    I've still got two pairs of brand new unopened Bose wireless headphones from the Pixel 6 pro give away. So there is a chance I might sit on it for a bit.

    I'm using a pixel 6 pro to cast videos and picture saved on the phone to my TV. Not sure if I'm not understanding what you're trying to do, so sorry if I'm missing your point

    Used to be able to do this with apps. I currently use AllCast to cast videos and pictures from my phone to our TV and that works really good.

    Wife ordered a Pixel 7 Pro last night to replace her 6 Pro. I've decided not to bother upgrading mine as it still does everything i need and i'll not notice the minor upgrade and slightly better camera. Only reason she's changing really is because her 6 pro seems to have a slight issue with...

    Best Sounding Exhaust / Quality for 182

    Best exhaust I've had is an old ktec Janspeed system. The 2.25" version with single back box. They're pretty quiet with the centre res, and original cat, whilst still sounding good. But can be pretty loud with straight centre and decat too. This is my old one:

    Tyre availability

    Camskill have both in stock, but PS5's were cheaper than PS4, which suggest the stock levels are getting low in PS4 https://www.camskill.co.uk/m55b0s24p0/Car_Tyres_-_MPV_Tyres_-_People_Carrier_Tyres_-_19_inch_R19_inch_-_235_35_19_235_35R19

    Tyre availability

    Pilot sport 5's are available now, so maybe they are phasing the PS4 out.

    ***How much is it worth?***

    Not the end of the world for me, I'd probably replace at least the drivers seat anyway. But in reality only need one seat in the car, as the misses hates them, and the kids are too young to sit in a bucket seat just yet. Part of the attraction of getting something like this to be honest.
