You can do it FatRS. you can fit 197 cup suspension to a non cup 197 for example. I was just stating that not 'every' model suspension will fit. ​

M3's are overrated. They have huge repair bills. Everything seems to cost a £1000 on my friends every time it goes into BMW for a service, brakes, tyres etc. ​and they have a common fault of the rear Chasis legs cracking on the early ones iirc?

You'll like it with a 'fresher' look, no orange. Makes the car look newer. And the C L I O badge doesn't do the car favours. Get it off ;)

Its a completely different design, smaller top mounts. The whole suspension won't fit. You have to specify 2010> when ordering if that's what yours are.

FYI they're not all interchangeable. Different years have different top mounts. The ones I know are the 200 from 2010 onwards have different revised suspension again

Lovely car! Welcome! silvervision indicator bulbs and remove C L I O badge. Job done on the outside. ​enjoy it! :) I was a member of Corsasport before. Recognise your car.

I can agree with that :) I know the 172 is better on fuel. But what I'm saying is, the 197/200 isn't bad either.

I'll be doing a test and report back after the weekend. 500 miles trip to Oulton Park :) but I already know it'll be good, I commute 70 miles one way, B roads. I'm always on 33+ and I'm always 60'ish +'

So cams, weight?

I'll agree that they are crap on stop start, and people who are doing those sort of commutes shouldn't expect good mpg on any car? ​theyre good cars on a run. Fact

But some can't get over 26'ish mpg? I can see 34-35 sat at 70 on the motorway, and the same sort of mpg on B roads at 60'ish. edit: reply to chips this is

I'm just saying, mines in my experience, and I've done many many miles in mine already. the only other explanation is the cars mpg completely differs from one to another?

​Making mpg assumptions without owning one...

Cool, cheers for that. Thought it would be worth an ask. My Hoover has just packed up and thought one of these small 12V ones were worth a look.

As above. Anyone have any experience with them? Are they powerful enough? Theres a few cheap on eBay. ​Gez

Can't wait to see this complete!

Bit of inspiration, that ^ made me go white on white. Love it.

​

What mileage are you on? I don't have to drive like a saint to see 33-35. Just a normal 60-70 mph B road driving? Hills etc if I drive like miss daisy I'm up on 37-38

an M3 isn't that great tbh... May have straight line power.

I actually need to get to the place I'm going. ​So granny driving will not be used

All this fuel talk and saying how bad it it, and it's people saying it who don't even own a 197/200? M3 economy???? Lol. Im currently averaging 35 mpg, and can get 400 miles out of a tank. I'll do CS a favour and even do a thread on the weekend seen as I'm doing a 500 mile trip this...

Do it! Best thing I ever did. 200 is better in every way. Apart from the mpg being a little less, but it's hardly noticable. The mpg really depends on how you drive. I'm averaging 35mpg at the moment. people saying the 172/182 is more value for money. Surely it's going to be when the 172 is...

Yes. Ktec decat, standard exhaust.

Lovely car! Good choice! theres an orange one around my way, looks great! the seats don't take my fancy, but I don't think they look bad either. Apart from that, great car! Need better pics and incar vid ;) :)

It's funny how it affects each car so differently. Can hardly notice it on mine

Machined Matched Inlets Ph1 172/ v6 air Box 2.5" bore exhaust system a/c delete kit remap. all relatively cheap. Good cheap'ish gains.

Hi all, ive recently had my 200 decatted. Bought the K-Tec decat. Best money spent IMO. The 200 has a drone from standard at 70 mph, which was quite annoying. It's not there anymore! Result. So it's actually quieter on a run now, if your sitting at the same speed. Car sounds amazing, and it's...

Ever? ​it was a bank holiday weekend.

Any ideas on when the next one might be?
