I get the impression he's not after a bike, they are hardly practical, 2 up dressed in exoskeleton clothing with no bootspace? Cornering and braking of a minibus? Not for most...
I agree with the buy the 300bhp straight out suggestion, there are numerous Cosworth, Skylines and Evo's pumping...
I raced a Bugatti Veyron the other day. Its superior horsepower gave it the edge on the straights, however as soon as we reached the twisties I pulled away using my VVT, the driver was shocked about losing to a Clio!
I told him, "just as well it wasn't a cup, they are at least as twice as...
I like it, nice looking.
Just MHO, but it looks like a future bag of trouble mechanically. I hope you have some good contacts and are handy with a spanner!
From the car specs link on this site the weight difference is 14kg. Thats nothing. You could save that amount of weight by running the car with less fuel in its tanks.
Some people are the first to b**ch about the price of car tax, fuel duty, income tax. I note they are the same faces who are first to criticise the underfunded NHS etc ;)
I wouldn't call the Escort Cosworth a hot hatch, simply because it is in a class above "hot" performance.
I'd call a true hot hatch a hatchback with a near identical chassis to its lower model siblings with uprated drivetrain/suspension and usually has added body "flair" and sportier interior...
Its worth getting HD now. I have a 42" HD Plasma and the Xbox 360 looks leaps and bounds over the current gen when its running in 720p. There are a lot of good games out, and a few killer apps due any day (Gears of War, R Evil 5, Halo 3 etc).
Sky HD is launched next month (299GBP for box, free...
Adult discussions? Such as this that you posted?

I'm not defending myself as no one is attacking me, I posted in jest as I find these types of posts very amusing and alot of you took the bait. And once again, you took another bit of...
Whats a machanic? ;)
Yeah I'm training MRBILLYUK, commercial exams. 2pm - 7pm a day solid. Sorts of upsets the sleep rhythm!
Fly 2-3 times a month just to keep current on types, actually get up tomorrow, jolly to IOW for lunch! Flew last week to Southend from Brighton in 22 minutes to shop...
In the context it was used, spot is correct :rasp:
Like "Spot the ball".
English lessons all round :p
Putting it through a grammar checker showed no errors.
oooh you all bit so hard on my comments. I think you all failed to note the sarcasm. Provided me with huge amusement. ;) Be honest, if you want to pull chicks don't buy a clio full stop. They wouldn't be impressed by a "172" or a "182" when both look like (in their eyes) their mum's 1.2 RN.
If...
I dont care if a 172 spanks a 182's arse and call's it a b**ch. Chicks will always dig a "182" over a "172". Like chicks will dig a DB9 over a DB7. I really don't care if a 172 will show a 182 a clean pair of heals on a track. I'm just seeing how many 172 owners have inadequacy problems and...
Yep, image equals all :cool:
Cummon, we've all been sparring figures for years, now we can buy a car with figures in its title!
Eg -
Yeah mate, you may have 10bhp but you will only gain 0.001 secs a lap...
Yeah, but your's only just broken in and my 172 engine is virtually blue print...
I went for a 182 for a newer low mileage car with a nicer exhaust :)
No matter what arguements are presented a 182 owner will always feel superior to a 172 owner. Its like saying I have a 8" penis over a 7" penis. Both provide the same satisfaction to a woman, however....
It will only ever go on up in value if kept in this condition. Anyone been to Imperial Palace Las Vegas? They have a mint RS200 on show for a cool quarter million+ :cool:
A good RS never dies :)
Microsoft also made such claims. The PS2 ran out of stock at xmas time a few years after launch. Games developers are now saying there's "nothing in it" imbetween PS3 and Xbox 360. The PS3 stats look better, but the 360's true ability is not demonstrated by stats due to its multi layer chips...
