Hello & Welcome.

probably not the only way, but the best way.

Less chat more Videos! 1. Speedo Video to prove 0-60 time 2. Bouncing off limiter in 5th @ 140mph whilst not sitting on some rollers.

Southend ain't that bad really, my worst experience there is beaching my mini on one of the speed bumps along the front, mucho embarrassment! I'd rather be there than Glasgow TBH.

Turkish; you managed to slate Essex twice in this thread, please stop. you have no grounds for these comments. :o

Hi & Welcome! enjoy the ph1, cracking cars.

there are large differences in prices simple because alot of them have had a hard life and have been trashed and people want rid of them, others you will pay more for a well looked after example which has all the service documents etc. i'd happily pay a little more to get a good one.

nice car, just make sure it has had all the important belts changed.

I like your wheels.....;)

the car should pull well after 100, well better than a gti or vts. could be a dodge wheel bearing or brakes semi binding?? i'm guessing TBH but look at things on the car that would cause abnormal rolling resistance.

Yeah Rileys, there are a couple of meets that happen local to you so keep and eye out in the Local Meetings section. Good if you could make it to some of them to meet the locals!

Probably getting ready to be re-sprayed?

what didn't you like about the extreme?

very nice, what didn't you like about the extreme??

even if i wasn't going away i still would have sold it and got a PH1 because i prefer the look of them and it would freed up some money for a supercharger kit. Also i don't have the facilities to sort a car properly for that period of time. I realise this don't worry, I didn't have you down as...

can say i go to Pitsea, not my neck of the woods, but some of the 'boyz' round thurrock put on an interesting show!

Importing did cross my mind, but then i looked at the prices :o The 182 would obviously out drift any of their jap crap....

Well it's a minimum of 6 months going to Japan, then all being well off to Australia.

;)

No doubt it will shorten the life of the engine, but we don't know by how much. Hence why I said I was going to wait to see how people get on with the kits. i probably wouldn't drive much quicker day to day with the kit installed, would save it for the track TBH.

I will be investing in a supercharger kit this time next year if the kits prove themselves. I personally wouldn't feel comfortable doing the conversion yet as there are quite a few unknowns with regards to how it will effect the cars 'long term' even though GDI seem to be leading the way with...

yes i kept the private plate, currently on retention. Think i'll be keeping the plate for a long time TBH.
