I have had my Meg Cup-S for 5 years. Its my daily (5k per year). Although use my Push-Bike most of time. Just normal servicing for me but only on 25k.
Just back from 1200 miles in it. Wife in Passenger Recaro, Daughter in rear (13 now, 8 when bought) Her legs getting longer but my wife's are...
Horsham also had a water leak which closed everything. So lucky we were not affected.... I went to Guilford with the family. This was rumbling about. To late to get a proper picture.
It was mine. Interestingly I was explaining the mammoth spec it had. And that I was so tight that I would not have paid for it new. Then I saw a zero spec car (well except for the paint) in Horsham & thought how lucky I was.
Great meet. Could have done with the sun coming out but barring that.
All the worry of those Porsches filling the car park was taken care by filling all the other Empty (because it was Sunday) car parks.
Some tasty stuff there. I do have a hankering after a Porsche Spyder and a few on display...
At least the Porsche guys actually have Porsches.
The Clio club cant even muster up a Clio. Can we have at least one we can stand around?
Or maybe we have made the Clio an aspirational car?
I am gonna wear my Porsche T-Shirt to add to the confusion.
I am just looking at this to see what cars to watch for passing me in the opposite direction. Flash me up if you see me.
Ay least I have a Renault..... Closest to a Clio. Gave it a clean.
This is so close I would be mad not to show my face. Providing I don't have a newly fitted kitchen that needs painting.

But not in the wet.....
Seriously interesting budget tyre review online showing wet handling & braking for tyres that only save a few £ compared to branded.
Worth looking at the age markers. Any rubber likes to flex a bit so old rubber can get pretty rigid. Hence the cracks. Some people say 5...
This is std formula for nice modifiable cars that sold well. As opposite to nice cars that were rare.
Get Modded, Get Tracked or Crashed, Numbers Drop. Values Climb. Get stored & driven on nice days by old dudes.
Clio 182 Lifecycle. ST just needs another 10 years.
I imagine a 200 bhp 1100kg Fiesta is not far off the pace of a Meg 275 with 275 bhp and 1400kg.
Power to weight down a little but torque to weight probably bang on.
Definitely a factor and they were still making mk7 ST out to 2017 whereas Clio 200 done by 2013.
Always considering Fiesta ST. Originally I was Mk7 and had a look at an ST200 4 years ago ( probably less £ than it would ne now). But now I look at Mk8 Perfomance Edition for around £20-22k. But...
No one said it was easy.
Try getting a Megane RS its no better. Cup-S was sold for a year and only 100 sold. Its laughable how limited they were. Ford probably knocked out a couple of thousand focus RS in same period.
mmm. Still struggling a bit both of those ones look good.
As well as wiping on trim I have been using with a detailing brush on grills. Brush on & let dry.
Both the G-Techniq and CarPro look more tricky for areas like this.
Was looking at this.
Does it just put a protective coat or does it blacken it?
I use Autoglym stuff which goes on easy & gives the look I want but pretty much need to reapply after ever wash.
I just want something to easily wipe on but last a little longer. Maybe a couple of months.
Coming the other way at Crossbush.
Big waves to me in my Yellow Megane.
Was off to Goodwood to watch some of a time trial sprint at the track. Only downside was muddy field to park in.
Thanks for that. Not many people pulling plugs at low miles to comment.
Seems to be running sweet. Although intermittent misfire that I started this post with was really intermittent so if that was something else may still rear its head.
I got them to put on new coils at the same time as the...
