Paintwork looks superb :approve:

With the engine being developed as a BMW/Pug joint project if it was going to have more beef to it surely BMW would have wanted the same in the Mini? But yeah you would think Pug would at least want to equal the BHP of the 206 180 with it?

P21s will work just fine, but is only good for 30 odd days, will look good. For more protection - ideally Klasse recommend there SG sealant but it is a b**ch to use. Autogym Extra Gloss will also work well. I have just got some JEFFS Werkstatt Acrylic Jett Trigger which arrived yesterday...

New mini according to this months EVO 172 bhp @ 5500 192 lb ft @ 3000

Looking good - Nice and shiny. Worth noting as a stand alone product despite what the bottle says AIO won't last that long protection, worth topping it with there Sealant or a good wax. It is a great chemical cleaner though.

I have doubts they will give it anymore power than the engine has in the new Mini tbh. Will be easily chipable though.

Managed to wipe mine down while trying a new product, and thats as much as I could do. Raining again now anyway.

Some plates are riveted on, you may need to carefully drill the heads off them.

With the 207 GTi still using a 1.6T engine like the 207 GT will it be much different in weight though?

Hopefully it will be more lardy still and not handle aswell either then! ;)

Have the specs etc of the 207 GTi been published now? I have not seen them? With all the rumours about it still flying round there was talk of it having more power than in the mini. It will also be easily chipable now aswell. Still it may still drive as bad as the 206 though!

LOL- Luke warm Clio GT!

LOL - It's raining here now aswell. My back is fooked at the moment can't hardly drive let alone detail his weekend :(

To cold for cleaning now ;)

With the old nemisis Peugeot going down the turbo route for the 207 GTi staying n/a with the 197 could be the downfall of the Clio.

I would be carefull on what you use on it. The manufacuters only recommend wiping it with a a dry cloth, or a damp cloth to clean it.

Apply it really thinly with a foam pad. White dust means to much product and applied to thickly.

They stuff they use comes up very cheap on ebay all the time. The interior part of the pack is worth it though - wanted it for the 182 but the stealer would only do the full pack interior and exterior not just the inside.

You send Mingmong down the caves to dig this one up Scutch?

My 309 GTI, for the money I got for it I may as well have kept it.

The V6 will soon ease the pain

Some do it, chances are it may shed. I rinse mine well after use with the hose and dry and that normally suffices. If they do get grubby I use that as an excuse to relegate them to dirty jobs and use a new one, or if they are quite new wash by hand in Woolite.

Nothing you can do on the Alcantara bar a damp microfiber cloth. On the leather Einzett 1Z Cleaner and or Zaino Z10 Leather conditioner.

Will you be sticking a line of yellow insulation tape on a spoke of each of your wheels now Jay?

You grabbed any recently Guy? a lot seemd to have stopped doing it.

Stick the 197 lump in that and we may be getting a proper small hot hatch again.

Did it have the lynx effect on the cup?

I know :(

To be honest I prefered my drive in a Full Fat 182 with H&R's more than I enjoyed the tets drive I had Trophy. Who knows if this would be the same long term living with each. The Trophy is great if you like Red, want a limited edition car and won't want to modify it. For me I dont like flat...
