You may want to stop blowing money on 'modz' until you discover the pain that is insurance. Being a young lad you're already going to get bummed, but if you start throwing on wheels, coilovers, exhausts etc. then you may as well just start lubing up now. Oh, and not declaring them is a bad...

No, by being 16 and driving it about (although SImon may have suspected you were driving on the queens' highways). Although why would you get pulled every 5 minutes if you're on private land? Being that low you're more likely to have to stop to fix something every 5 min instead ;) @Simon -...

You may want to add some suspension travel to that before you try going onywhere. I like how you've bought a cheap motor and are planning to throw away probably at least triple the value on 'modz'. I'm guesing you have a normal, daily motor and this is a project of sorts?

I am well aware of this, it wasn't what I was suggesting. UFAIL. Mostly, fogs are used by 'tards that want to look well cool though, irrespective of the weather. To get around the problem of using them inappropriately, if the fog is wired into main beams then if the road is clear ahead and you...

damn that. No tools, no ramp, no clue. So it's going to have to be done by a garage.

Does that include removal and fitting?

Do you have toi massage it into 3rd if you've got any revs on the dial? I'm weighing up a gearbox refurba nd new clutch from JMS, but not sure yet

if you insist on throwing your money at the car then yes, go coilovers. and remember to declare them on insurance

Selective yellow fogs are winners, good man. And I'm off down to Wickes now for some sparky-tape. nice one bruvvah!

so, how did you buckle that wheel then :)

Problems with 3rd are the beginning of the end for a gearbox I've been told. Syncho's are made of rice paper and you'll end up rev-matching to get 3rd without a fight.

Which of these products is the one that strips your paint if you leave it on too long? Sure I saw a thread about it. Not saying is was Demon Shine, so not trying to troll or scaremonger

Fogs are great. Especially when in Selective Yellow. But I do agree that that they gat far too much innapropriate use. If you want to wire them to anything, wire them into the full beams, if you can use full beams safely, then you can use the fogs too

good work. has it been washed since last use?

I always found that whipping the battery out and giving it a minute sorts most smartphone problems.... ....oh

got it mapped yet?

so, the parade lap ended up looking like a traffic jam instead? Classy

signal. voda may be doing work on the network. Even iPhones have to have network coverage to work. Contrary to the thoughts of most owners, they dont function on smuggness alone. :)

just hand over the 12 quid. It's the first mod for any Clio

this would be an idea, although even with a top-whack alpine unit you'll still need an amp to get the speakers to their best

they will work, but wont be anywhere near their optimum I'd imagine. A cheap amp with speaker-level inputs would help a lot, something like http://www.caraudiodirect.co.uk/jvc-ksax3102.html

Gally, isn't the Performance Bue of the FRP a bit of a special sod to re-do anyway?

It's been said before, but worth reitterating. A bodyshop will probably only charge a little more but leave a better result.

But, when all said and done, he still has a 1.2.

@Knuckles. She's got the ol' Roland Garros eh? I almost had one of those, except Pug were being dicks about finance packages, so I wound up with the V5 Toledo instead. Did mean I could fit my feet under the dash though

Do it. It'll be cheaper than paying out for all the Frenchness issues that are bound to happen

You don't, you get a warrany instead.
