    Was going to trade my 172 for an R32, then I drove one!

    Having been out in a R32 at the ring, all I can say is understeer bardge, damn fast though, but I foudn that you had to plough in to a corner understeering then power on to sort it all out with the AWD, and the body roll :| that had uprated ARB's on it too. But that was stepping out my 205 track...

    I'm guilty of it, I reverse off the drive with it off to see, then I'll stick it on abotu 200metres down the road (while moving though) But if I'm parked facing forward out the drive then I'll put it straight on, Just have to live with plebs on the road :(

    Ds2500 Brake kit (discs pads and hoses) - Feedback

    brilliant compound, like pagid's but cheaper, just seem to keep getting stronger as you abuse them more, use them in the 205 nova and the 16v, love them.

    Hi I'm a Newbie here

    Thank you for the big welcome, the clio has a few niggles which I'm trying to iron out. Has an intermittent judder from the engine, had new leads, plugs and cap and arm. My mechnic who's a full trained renault mech says the throttle pot is mostly likely worn. Is this a common thing?? Cheers JAmes
