You'll either get a high mileage but well looked after 2004 cup packed car for £2k or a low (er) mileage non cup packed 2005 car with sketchy history IME. Don't let mileage worry you, they go on forever. But whatever you buy make sure it's been serviced regularly and has recent...

Holy fcuk!

Very valid point mate!

What's to stop someone opening up Cliosport.net racing? Own rules and regulations, but just tag along to another series and follow them around? (Please don't shoot me down, I have no idea how these things are run!)

Basically, we could all argue our points til we're blue in the face, the fact remains that unless 750/ktec listen, they'll have small grids. If they changed the requirements, set up a race that could involve two drivers (as per tin tops) then I'd bet money that they'd have double the entries...

That I'd be at the back?

Excuse me mr moderator, did you not think to search? I think it's been covered 34,677 times.

But what's the point in racing if you're not competitive? Tagging onto the FT would be, imo, soul destroying. getting lapped every time. My mate raced a 106 and when he got bored of being sat at the back getting lapped with the other standard (ish) cars, he had to spend the best part of £17k to...

You're not allowed to run that cup. It's not a banger racing series!

Then we're back to square one. If you want to spend big bucks on a race car, go and join a proper series. Entry level racing should be just that; entry level. So standard ecu, a choice of 2/3 suspension kits that cost under £700 and 15 inch wheels with a choice of regulation tyres. Exhaust for...

Exactly. I've got clio's coming out of my ass. I'd love to race one of them competitively. The fact I don't have the time or knowledge to build a £20k+ car is what stops me (and lots of others) trying to compete in the likes of tin tops./ccscc. It's not about talent there, it's about who's got...

Is Andy from emmer dale on the gear? He's got very big very quick.

I've never had 'that' much of an issue with dust with SRP mate. Although I had 72 brand ne microfibres delivered today so I expect new cloths helped. I've only been using the new stuff for the last week or so but so far so good. I like it! Adam, one of my older Autoglym pads. Got it slightly...

I applied SRP by DA today for the first time! Bloody impressed tbh. I used a lot less than if I did it by hand.

Seems to me that 750 and ktec have started this series for a gap in the market that isn't there. Simple logic would suggest that starting a Clio race series, the first point of research would be the worlds biggest Clio forum that already contains several successful Clio race Teams. And tony...

Exclusives are ftw. Completely standard apart from lowered a bit. Lovely.

I just walked past it on the way to the garage. It's f**king lovely!

Because I work opposite you. Not in the same building, but I mean I work opposite WDM! lol.

You work for WDM iirc? I saw the van in BM motoring the other day. Looks amazing in the metal mate. Good work.

​An MOT only takes 40 minutes ffs!

Kwikfit??? C'mon guys seriously. I wouldn't trust them to sell me a stamp ffs. They royally ripped my sister off with her car's aircon regas. She ended up taking them to small claims court for the amount of fcukwittery they involved her in. Needless to say, she took it to a local aircon...

If he's a Motorsport engineer, he'll know what condition the cars in and should have no issue putting a new mot on it.

It's still got a fail'o'matic gearbox.

I could get £2500 for a good 172/172 cup. On the flip side, I could (and just have!) go out and buy a rough 182 for £500. It's all relative, and there's no such thing as a bargain! If something's cheap, it's because it needs money spending on it.

Good 172's are expensive, crap ones are cheap. Relatively speaking of course.

No. Just no.

How do you spend An hour looking around a car??? Christ, I didnt spend that long looking at my house! Nice car though. I love them.

Where in the south west? It's a big place! (I'm on my phone so can't see your location)

I probably won't tbh.

Stupid c**t. It was dead thin, not in sunlight... I'm guessing it wasn't left long enough. I'll try that next time when I do the wife's car.
