I've had my silverline rotary for nearly 5 years. Maybe more than that! Still going strong to date. The only downside with it, it's quite heavy so when i'm doing a Navara/Range Rover etc, it wears you out quickly! The old line ''A rotary will damage your paint'' is nonsense. It won't damage...

Otherwise, this happens... http://www.cliosport.net/forum/showthread.php?689156-FFS&highlight=belt+snapped

What do you mean apparently?? Have you seen a proper invoice from a proper garage?

Who changed the cambelt? Did they do the full kit and Aux belt kit too? What about the dephaser?

I completely forgot, my auto electrician has one! Wide arched ex Rally car. I've only ever seen pics as it's up north at his dads, but it looks like this...

IIRC, two doors in white are the saught (sp) after ones. I'd love one.

Re: New Car Thread Yes mate, the petrols are largely bullet proof. Google Vectra CDTI common faults and have a read. You'll be reading for a long time! I had one as the family car and I loved it. Went like stink, amazing on fuel, MASSIVE boot, handled well, I just loved it. Sadly, every...

Re: New Car Thread Because they break, a lot! DMF, gearboxes are weak, cambelt tensioners are weak..... All proper expensive jobs!

Re: Grey With Trinkets, Russ' 29th RS Clio You need to speak to sam about painting the cage a different colour. He said he'd never do it again, it's a fcuk ton of work mate!

I was a bit thrown today when the program kicked off, I was looking for a black car! Nobody said he'd changed colour! Shame about the ''accident'' but s**t happens. Learn from it and move on! Clio cup is still the best action in a race series!! Very good to watch.

My mk1 has no power steering, it doesn't need it IMO. It's lighter than my mk2 Orion!

Don't take it personally Ry! Lol!

I don't like racing ble mk3's, but yours is an exception to the rule!! Looks brilliant!

Don't!! I've got some orange pro races with nearly new pilot exaltos on them! Lets swap wheels/tyres, I really want your wheels!

Perfect doner specimen, good work! Engine, box, driveshafts, hubs, calipers, discs/pads, engine mounts etc etc all bolt straight up. You've got a busy weekend ahead of you!

Lovely car! The coupes really have come down in price lately.

A neighbours friend just pulled away in a flame red (ish?) sort of coloured one, with some ripspeed black and chrome wheels on it. Fcuking hideous.

Sold. :)

Brands this week.

Yeah about a year or so ago mate. Thanks for keeping up to date!

I didn't. Just good old fashioned elbow grease and SRP.

Of course it is, I cleaned it. :D

I got him a 55 plate C180K Avantgarde with the sport pack. identical to this

We can do them in under 30 minutes now! A garage should be charging £100 to fit them, no more. Any more is a rip off!

Pearl paint + smart repair = unhappy customer!

It was in fast ford ages ago. I've got the mag upstairs somewhere. from memory, it was a 1700 cc?? (I may be completely wrong)

At least you have a really fast engine in a little girls car. I just have a little girls car.

If I had a really fast engine in a little girls car, i'd not advertise it. Stealthily smoking people at the lights is where it's at! (Apart from massive turbo noises!!)

I've finally managed to pursuade him to change for something newer. The car has been faultless for 40,000 miles. He bought it from me at 51k and it's now on 91k. All of this mileage has been covered on the M4 over the last 2.5 years as he commutes to London. Very good car! Taxed, MOT'd, ready...
