Afternoon all. I regularly tow a trailer - same trailer every time. I usually use a random vehicle from work - it’s never the same one. Is there any way I can get a camera permanently wired up to the rear of the trailer and then have a Bluetooth module/screen that I can just move from car...

I’ve got a Kangoo 1.9 diesel, non turbo. runs like a sack of s**t. I disconnected the EGR valve and it runs perfect. I bought a new (genuine) EGR valve and fitted it. still runs like a sack of s**t. Disconnect EGR and it’s fine again. Any ideas??

This guy is (very loosely) a mate of a mate. Been to a few track days with him and can confirm he’s a lunatic that builds mental cars AND he can race AND he can drift. This is his latest creation. (he’s on Facebook - Bishops bespoke builds if you want to see what he does)

I’m not even sure this is real or there’s a gas leak in my house and I’m high. but take a look at this!

This is amazing. 😂 (hopefullly the link works or I’m a c**t) https://fb.watch/fEC8-E_LEs/

My car (Mk1 16v with Ph1 172 running gear) has just had a new gearbox and gripper diff fitted. Before I had them fitted, the car drove lovely, Now it’s been fitted, there is the mother of all vibrations from the front of the car when I go over abut 15mph. Clutch in or out, it still does it...

Hello all. I bought an iPad ages ago and never got on with it. I put it in the cupboard and forgot all about it. Fast forward 3 years and my daughter has found it and I said she can have it. One slight issue, I can’t remember the password. My wife took it to a man in a shop who said he...

If you’ve done something or been somewhere that is a bit off the beaten track, post details in here for us all to see. I want to do Haynes, Mathewsons Auctions and some sort of retro show/day this year. And now I’m not goi g to be working anywhere near as much, I’m actually going to do it...

Post pics of your track dedicated clio, where you live, your regular track and your favourite track. I’ll start; Based in Bristol so I’m always up at Castle Combe in the car but done a few days around the country in the van. My favourite track so far is Oulton Park. The 182 converted Kangoo...

Afternoon all! I thought I’d get a little project thread going as once it’s done it will probably be for sale as since buying it, I’ve had a change of heart and no longer want to hoard as many cars as I have. So here goes… 69,000 miles, completely standard, 2 pervious owned and a little bit...

Afternoon all! I’m at that age where warning lights bug me. Gone are the days of a decat and a new sterering wheel and just putting up with the lights… I want to decat my van - the lamda sensors are finished anyway and the sale of the cat will fund a new exhaust system. so, has anyone...

My Sierra is up at the garage and needs a host of o-rings. Most for the power steering but one for the water pump housing and and a couple for the water injection. in my infinite wisdom, I have lost the list of measurements that I was given by the mechanic and all of the old ones are scattered...

My mate’s just bought this. 300+BHP and 750ftlb. It goes like the clappers and is SO unsafe it’s not even funny. but hilarious none the less. Oh and it does wheelies.

I bought this years ago and parked it in the unit and decided to forget all about it. fast forward to Christmas time and my car collecting life changed direction and I decided to just sell it along with most of my ‘buy and forget’ collection. Only one left now (The Volvo) but I’m not selling...

So the Clio 197/Meglio thing sold at 10am today. I can’t have money in the bank, it makes my ass itch and it’s why I’ve got so many bloody cars.... So I had a think about what to get next. I really fancied a van to just pile a load of stuff in the back and Me the wife and kids (and dog...

So, a friend of mine has a habit of building cars and spending eye watering amounts of money and then sells them when finished. This one is/was no exception. The modifications have done less than 50 miles. The majority of which were covered when delivering it to me today. 😂 I don’t have a need...

Good evening all! Looking for new suspension for my Mk1. it’s a track only car so I want proper kit, budget of about a grand. Can anyone recommend something?? currently on FK’s as they were very cheap and brand new. But they’re not manly enough I don’t think. I’ve tried them on the stiffest...

So we’ve decided to splash some cash on some Go Pro’s and as we try and do at least one track day a month, it should make for some good footage over the coming year or so. MX5 is a standard car with some cheap Coilovers and decent brakes - having the BBR 225 ITB conversion at the end of this...

I’m looking at getting a pair of these. https://rover.ebay.com/rover/0/0/0?mpre=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.ebay.co.uk%2Fulk%2Fitm%2F292344029831 Have any of you guys had them?? I currently use a GT width (shut up!) Cobra Suzuka and trying to find one the same is proving very difficult, assuming they’re...

Had an Absolute Riot at Oulton Park on Tuesday. What a Circuit!!! Van caused a bit of a stir again as per usual, must have had 10 people come over and talk to me about it. Given my lack of social ability that isn't pleasant but I tried my best... Coilovers and some Better wheels are on the...

If you don’t and you fill your 172/182 with generic red coolant, it reacts badly with the OE Type D.... 🤦‍♂️

Greetings all! I’m wanting a cheap bit of fun for a bit (daily is a boring diesel barge) I’m properly torn between an Abarth 500 and a 197. I will do the odd track day in it but mainly just a bit of fun to use when I haven’t got to take lots of stuff to work and don’t need the estate car. I’m...

I needed a practical car for work, but I really missed track days so I sold my Impreza and my 306 and went clio 182/197 hunting. Sadly all I could find was over priced crap. Then I stumbled across a really scruffy kangoo/182 conversion that had been 60% finished so I did a buy! Plan was to...

I need a pair of front 182 ABS sensors. Euro car parts have some Bosch ones that are about £19 each with discount. Am I wasting my time? Should I buy genuine? Last time I looked they were £100+ so I don’t really want to do that...
