Precisely! Mines had it all stripped off and reapplied a couple of times in its two decades on the roads. They will ALL do it, it’s just how much of a catalyst you are in terms of grit and salt exposure.

This, is temptation.

Melting snow must’ve washed a load away, and mild temps up until the weekend should mean no more salt. He says. I need to get my exhaust looked at before I go near a track again. After 10 years of spitting and flaming I don’t think there’s anything left in the silencers.

It's at the age where anything rubber is going to want replacing. If you've got budget, go round the whole car with new bushings/TREs/ARB-links. It will feel like a new car.

Love it, thanks for the insight @Darren S ! The real shame is that you can't buy road going rally cars anymore. 4WD Fiesta with 300bhp and no nonsense, yes please.

New cars really do nothing for me. Srs, not even a twitch.

This is the only cup that makes me miss mine. Congrats. 😂

Late 90's Japan FTW.

I've got a wish list for mine that would be before any power increase, but all depends how long I'll keep it.

Same, I’ll do a few TDs this side of July. And treat the Rays to a gun metal refurb to match the Team Dynamics. A bit more power would be nice, but that is one slippery fecking slope.

Part of me thinks this. But then the other half says just enjoy until it becomes a problem, fixing it now or fixing it when it’s rotten through still has the same end result. Mine needs a new water pump pulley, before I take it for the first td of this year at Silverstone in a couple of weeks.

195 will be cheaper and easier to find, no?

This, but you could look at used stuff? 2-3 year old macs, 98% of punters wouldn’t have a clue how old they were.

That makes it look as though the 182 is parked further away!

Mud is fine, salt is not. 😂

I pulled mine out the garage for the first time in over a month to put a new set of wheels on.. Then I go for a hoon, come back, and one of the pulley/bearings is chirping. Sigh.

Don't forget the cuddle and cigarette.

Yeah 6 minutes of thrust angle isn't much. (That's what she said)

I always thought of this as a 'how pissed is the chassis' or 'how much does it crab' value.

Good choice, they're not that s**t in the snow either.

I imagine your car doesn't have the mounts fitted to support the split seats. Pull up your bench and have a look.

Haha, brilliant. My first car was a Corsa B, and some theives decided to try and steal it. I guess they weren't professionals. 😂

I bloody hope so. Couldn't Novas be started by bridging the hazard switch or something ridiculously simple?

I quite like it, but I don't like it enough for 4.5K !

Finally found a vehicle with more rust than the evo? 😂

I had slight miss on my 172 Cup once, that showed its head one cold morning that started as a feint mis-fire. On the 30 mile commute it gradually got worse, that turned out to be the coilpack. But, when it got really bad just as I approached work, it lost a cylinder and threw me the electrical...

Waste of a fine car, that.

On tyres that look like they're made from nylon it must be a bit of handful!? Love it.

In the Ferrari and Jagwarr switching four lanes.

Anyone holding out any further on eth? £1k per coin, currently.
