    172 whit 17" fitted

    i agree had 17s on mine and wasnt liking it - was alright but didnt feel as nice - also I dont think toyos are that bad - got t1-r's on mine and after trying a lot of diff tires including parada spec 2's and bridgestone re40s etc i like them!

    Loss of interest

    Yorkshire Drive Out

    Lol no my mini was dropped 35mm on eibachs so I was scraping the front bumper a lot, id prob be more cautious in the clio! I do have a vid I did with my camera mount but im not sure whether I could get in trouble posting it on the net... I prob wasnt going over the speed limit so might be ok!

    Subaru Impreza STI 08

    Its weird - it doesnt feel exceptionally quick (comparing to RB320) although its very deceptive - its definately not slow (they have 300bhp standard now) Cant wait to have a go in it when its got a prodrive pack on (when they announce one)

    Subaru Impreza STI 08

    Yeah you cant see on the pics very clearly but its got 4 tail pipes :D he is having an exhaust made for it with 4 3.5 inch pipes instead of 3 inch. Should restore some of the subaru burble :)

    Subaru Impreza STI 08

    Thought id post these pics up here - a friend of mine picked up his 2008 STI impreza yesterday so we went for a long drive out and took some pics :) It goes really well - its only done 200 miles so far so it should free up a bit yet. Ive done a small write up and linked all the pics up on my...

    Test drove 197 and R27 back to back, was surprised...

    We have an R27 - and my dad in particular is very fussy with ride quality. Even though the roads round here are particularly bad we find the ride firm but the damping fantastic - it rides far better than the mini cooper s we had before. Ive not experienced it crashing through any bumps - I think...

    Ktec Stealth exhaust phase 2

    I dont find mine too loud at all - maybe that im used to an aftermarket exhaust on every car ive had but it isnt boomy at all - it just gives a nice note :)

    Clio 197 or a Corsa VXR

    Ive driven an R27 on a few occasions (we have one at home) and think its great, it feels really solid and suspension is nice and stiff, only thing it lacks is low down torque but I like a high revving engine that you need to work! Would like to have a go in the corsa, I imagine it would be...
