Interesting. I get the noise under acceleration. I was a bit suprise to notice today that the left hand engine mounting seems really loose. I can shake the engine around in the bay. I guess thats a bad thing. Better get it checked out!

Seen a new silver megane 3 door version in the flesh, and it looks good (and I HATED all the pcitures Ive seen of them!). A sparty version , if done well, could look very nice indeed.
I still remember absolutely feckin hating the MK172 when it came out. I now gaze lovingly upon the ugly...

I bought a 205 GTi too. Its NOT a shed, but it is a project Needed cleaning up, which is now done (apart from removing a bloody tow bar, of all things) and servicing (done) and some new rear shocks. The engine is on 101000 miles but (fingers crossed) starts first time, even after being laid up...

Im hoping to get 350bhp at the wheels with my disconnected airbox piping, lowering springs, clear side-repeaters, mesh and, of course, my ClioSport.net sticker

I think the performance of a 1.2 16v is excellent. Think of it this way, lets say the 1.2 16v has 85bhp/tonne and can do 1/4 mile in 20 seconds. Now imagine some dirty great sports bike with 500bhp/tonne that can do the 1/4 mile in 10 seconds. By this test, the bike is only twice as quick at the...

Not so hot on that idea myself. Im looking at it from the point of view that I wouldnt put a Williams badge on a 172, even though I think the Willy/16ver is an amazing car. People would throw eggs at me or something if I did that!

gaj16v - ooh....good moral dilema question! I reckon yes, having the interior is okay as it is a functional part of the car designed for comfort. People are also unlikely to sit in a valver and think it is a 172 as they would see the car when they get in. I suppose if you made them close their...
Sorry - cant. Would be strictly against my very strong principles to say I wanted more central events and then go to a Southern one this Friday . Seriously though, cant get the time off work at the moment Will wait until the 205 is in use and then risk it instead of the 172. More worried about...
