Stand closer FFS ! :rasp: I'm FAR from a decent 'car' photographer, but it seems to take up about 98% of my Flickr space so might be somewhere to start. I've helped a couple of guys out on here recently... Have a casual flick(r) through my 'car collection' on here if you want some...

Smooth, but needs boost ! :evil: He still has the Clio. This was purchased in exchange for a funsize Mars Bar and a reacharound.

Where else is it apart from CS ? I'm hoping it's on AT and PH at least, as most people on here own/used to own a Clio already... eBay classifieds are a good shout. Even Gumtree if you can bring yourself to do it.

Re: Harphamominom's Ph1 Project Drive at 55 or 95. Problem solved !

Re: Harphamominom's Ph1 Project T1Rs are alright on the Clio as it's a light car, but wouldn't be my first choice. Next challenge... an amusing otter sticker. Go. :coffee:

Why not just get a blu-ray player (or a PS3 if you haven't already as it does everything). £50-100 = DVD, BR, .avi, internet TV. Job done.

Newer TVs have a USB port... mine does, .avi's and .mkv's play off that. Also got a Sony Blu-Ray player, which plays the above through USB too, and has YouTube, iPlayer etc on it. Cheaper option than a new 'smart' TV.

Press harder :rasp: Bleed them, fresh fluid if you're bothered and/or have done 30k of hard driving since they were last changed. Over assistance. Stupid modern cars !!!

They sound like muppets. It's hardly an F40. There is probably another 5 for sale within 20 mins of your house ! However, if you end up buying it, and something else goes wrong, don't come crying to us... CS never forgets ;)

Most modern cars are far too over assisted. What do you mean by 'jump' ?! What tyres are on your car. They are the key to braking, as they provide the traction on the road surface...

What is this stuff ? I've seen it sold to gullible folk.. one of my friends has it on his 3 year old car, and is therefore adamant it doesn't need cleaning properly (i.e.: detailing) as this magical Jedi coating repels dirt. (insert facepalm here) I'm assuming it's a sealant coat which lasts...

0.8 what dude ? It depends on your location, distance from the phone exchange and other stuff like that.

14 day cooling off period for insurance... problem solved. What is dodgy ?! Read above ! If Fred hasn't heard of the problem, there's a very large chance it doesn't exist. I've no idea what they're up to, that's up to you to find out. You won't get the truth out of them anyway. I'd be...

Deposit to me says 'off the market'. Tell them you want out, get money back, go elsewhere. Definitely smells of rat !

Alright Scrooge ;) Mildly unplanned mini meet tonight was amusingly brief. Still LOLing at having to put Rob's car in reverse for him through the window. Spoon !

Why is it being driven after you've bought it ? Sirens would be going off in my head... Get your money back then find a better one on here !

But why paint them black...? They'll look exactly the same !

Everyone has an opinion on tyres. Some love one type, some hate them. Everyone seems to think Paradas are awful but I loved them all year round on my old Ph1. Check out online reviews (official ones (google them)) not what we think on here :rasp: V12's are good IMO, PS2s were OK but not epic...

*facepalm* As I said, I was 'tootling' below the lowest normal residential speed limit. I didn't understeer into a hedge chasing a Cup. Budgets are a false economy in my experience. I put them on my own car years ago when I knew no better. First time it rained, the thing locked up and I...

Searchysearch. Every single car does this. :rasp: Driver side rear cluster will have some corrosion on the pins in the connector. Take the cluster out, give it a good clean up, make sure there is no 'fuzz' built up on the pins/connectors and plug it all back in again.

Nonsense. I nearly binned the OH's 182 with crappy budgets on the back. 15/20mph on a roundabout in the wet, on my way to work. Turn in gently, SNAP oversteer. Wakey wakey, dab of oppo needed at 7am ! Ok, if you've not got the money for 'premium' tyres I can understand, but at the same time...

Yozza FTW (but I prefer stealth...) Clean arse by evil_giraffes_rule, on Flickr

That's four words.

Nice idea but a bit of a random present, unless she's asked you to do it ? Black hubcaps will look like bare steelies .. just take the original ones off ?!

They will do it straight away. You'll still have to send the V5 off, but assuming your insurance is sorted, you can drive home on the spot with a plate change !

Bout 2 weeks for me too... However, 2 weeks from now, probably not the best time of year to expect a return...!

If you want shock factor, I'm going to assume you're a 13 year old girl who cuts her own hair and dyes it pink, therefore you shouldn't be driving anyway... :rasp: Most people will think it's just a 'normal' Clio anyway. Leave it to those who know, to appreciate it. Unless you stuff...

Decrease mass, (the car and yourself, depending on your size!) better traction, and finally more power, which as mentioned, is expensive. Did you drive it before you bought it ?! How did you think a car with an alleged 197PS weighing 1,240kgs before driver would be like to drive ? That's...
