Dude car will be fine man, this is what we pay stupid amounts of insurance for, plus you have a witness. They will look at the damage and it will be obvious where it came from. As for the tooth, hope it feels better soon. And think positivly, its friday!!!

I have a 172 cup, mine leaks. I have just left it and kept an eye on the fluid levels and they aint dropped in the 7 months i have had the car. Sorry, for some reason i can't get the pics any bigger!!

Love the black roof, carbon look would be even better. The original photo shop wheels would look sweet, but would have to slam it for them to work. Go OE exhaust and keep it hidden think it will suit the look better. If you go for this then gotta sort out the aerial a bit, just a shorter 1.

Re: cleaned/euro mk2 phase 1 (172 kit plus smoothing) No worries with the bumper man, it looks like they have done such a good job already im sure they will sort it out. As for spacers, i think if you can get some camber on there aswell that would look sweet. Plus with the new wings etc...

Re: cleaned/euro mk2 phase 1 (172 kit plus smoothing) NO NO NO, they are in the top 10 greatest wheels ever, don't change them. (unless you wanna give them to me)

Sorry, just dug up this thread. I have got ferodo premium pads on the front (not 2500's) running on brembo HC discs, but some cheap ones on the back, so i don't think its cos of them as its happened on just one side of the car front and back wheels! Just wondering if anyone had any ideas on...

have just parked my cup a couple of cars behind you, your car look great!!!

A couple of my turinis need a refurb, due to damage not caused by my self. It not serious but they need doing. Anyway thinking about doing all 4 and going for a color change, will i need to declare this to my insurance? As they will be the same wheels. Also thinking about fitting diffrent...

I aint 100% sure but i have heard people saying this could be a lambar sensor. search lambar sensor on here there are loads of threads. Check i have spelt lambar correctly!!!!;)

Almost 100% sure 172 and 172 cup are not the same, there is a guy who used to be on here, but not got a clio anymore i think... anyway he snapped a spring on his cup, need it to get 2 and from work and could afford replacement til next pay day or something but got a standard one, for free...

Have done some primary balance stuff before in some labs, but not to a very high standard. As for my final project, don't get me started. I am actually doing quite an interesting project, but its not something im personally interested in. and its not even close to this sort of thing. Plus its...

I will have a look for the flamer as i go past tonight. As for a ride, i tried getting a test drive in a 200, once in chester where im from which was an epic fail, then once again in leicester, but again failed. Sure if someone has one they won't mind taking you out in it!!! Was going to...

I will have a look for it tonight, my gf works very near there (next to McDonalds). I like the name, nice touch!

This all sounds very interesting, im guessing to get it really well balanced you have to replicate all the forces when the engine is running? Surely the oe one is pretty good as the R&D department must have to and are able to spend a lot getting this right? I which i could do my final uni...

Nice, obviously you have to stat out cos you need to find a parking space!!!!:D Whats the bar called? Yeah lots of fun, there seems to be so much more to do in the final year!!!

Yeah leicester uni student, studying mechanical engineering, in my 3rd and final year. There are a lot of houses with 2+ cars, last year there were a couple of student houses with 4 cars which is stupid. The reason i like the idea of the permits is cos you can only get one if you live in the...

im so lazy, googling now!

Sorry, im a student :o (bit more mature than most tho and my girlfriend has graduated) but i know exactly what you mean. Plus i live here permanently know not just term time. I quite like the idea of parking permits? They have them in Loughborough and its much better up there.

I have never heard of this "knife-edging" but from what i have read on here, wouldn't/couldn't it lead to a massive increase in vibrations? Surely the counter weights have a very important job and removing them or modifying them could cause a lot of damage and reduce reliability? When you...

reg is L12 CUP (came with the car). My girlfriend used to live on lorne but we have just moved in together on avenue road extension. Which road do you live on cos I haven't seen your car before?

Start by checking http://www.moneysupermarket.com/ and www.confused.com. There are other similar sites but not going to list them all. They will give you a good idea of prices, but DO NOT buy your insurance from these sites. Once you have decided on a few companies, give them a call or go...

Don't get why its written off? Who did insurance decide was at fault? I would say other person was, if what you say is true. 1. they had been sitting waiting for some time. 2. You indicated before going past them. Did they indicate? If not then it surely is their fault imo.

Cool, just read up bout it. Pretty cool.

stupid question, what is the second gear stick for? the red one. Im guessing its to engage some sort of dif or 4wd system? Like in an old defender or series landrover?

I would ring your insurance company, as to speak to the most senior person you can about a complaint and who your solicitor should contact. Might work but if not you aint lost anything. Can i ask who you are insured with at the mo (PM me) cos im due to re-new pretty soon as would be...

Get it hot and give it some, will clear it pretty quickly. I am amazed water got in. If you go through water that deep again, then go slowly as you did, but keep it in 1st and keep the revs up to stop this happening again. Plus don't reduce the revs or let them drop to change gear once your...

^^ i don't mean put thos decals on, i just mean some other red bits.

I love this, not sure bout the clio tho! think you need to put some other red bits on the clio for it to work. Like the decals on the meg.

If i had the money i would buy it.... ...so i could crush it !!;)
