Dont laugh but my neighbour and i recently had this conversation and he recommended.........Butter!!!!!! Never tried it myself nor have i seen him use it, if you try let us know how it goes!

i've got a slightly older version of that alpine unit, my ipod never leaves the glovebox! Excellent even with standard speakers.

pe2's all the way, think gsd3's have been superceded though the replacements sound good (cant remember what they are called). They got an excellent write up in the recent evo tyre test though not sure if they are available in 205/45/16.

i got the brembo hc discs, ferodo ds2500, moquip braided hoses and 5.1 fluid for around £200 off yozzasport. Money well spent, thought they were great until a few weeks back when i took the dukes pass (best road on planet) and they excelled, no fade whatsoever and they felt they were improving...

i've been going to kwik-fit for £90 a tyre fitted. They will price match anywhere, so go online and get the price from mytyres (kwik-fit rrp circa £115). Print it out and they should match the price. I just find it a more convenient option than ordering online then arranging for them to be...

106gti is an excellent little car though i've never been troubled by one

learn how to drive first for your own safety and other road users, a 1.4 will suffice till insurance gets cheaper

Very difficult to get PE2 205/45/16 Vrated tyres at moment. I had to get w rated from kwik-fit -£90each price match!

Just found out i've got a nail in a tyre. Thats the third in 6 months! Kwik fit are gonna price match so £90 but they cant source any v rated tyres only w's. Any difference in the two i.e. will i notice any difference in handling?

i was with admiral then they whacked their renewal quote up, i refused and contacted elephant got a better quote. When i received my info pack from elephant i recognised their address. Same as Admiral, same company!

I just fitted my setup from yozza on sunday. Now that they are bedding in they make a massive difference!

Nah, kept the shims in coz they help to reduce squealing (i think) which has been mentioned as a prob with these pads on alot of threads on here. Instructions for ds2500 aint that s**t hot coz they mention x number of stops then go to the pitlane and check pad wear i.e not for road use Ive...

Just fitted new pads, brembo discs and braided lines this weekend all from the good folks at yozzasport. When fitting the pads we had to skim a little (poss 2mm) from the bottom of the steel plate for the pads to sit in the caliper correctly, has anyone else had to do this? Just asking coz its...

mintex extreme=shite Smoked a set within a few weeks which were carefully run in. They never recovered from their smoke sesh. Got some ds2500, brembo hc and hoses going on on sun- yeah!

Like the steering wheel! Have you had the car on the road yet and if so what is your opinion? The steering wheel and huge size of it is something that bugs me about my car just wondering what the diff it makes.

Ive had both, definately would say there is a difference. Non cup rolls into corners, slams down on dips and springs up on crests of hills more in comparison with cup pack models at the same speeds- which you would expect. Really need to take the cup faster towards its limits and it does the...

Thanks revels, i'll give it a try. Noticed that there are also good youtube vids for photoshop tutorials that are worth checking. Cheers

Noticed that on the clio calender thread that people have made the background blank and white and colour for the car. How is this done? Im new to photoshop and just learning the basics but am impatient wanting to make my own similar photo. Anyone help?

Try a soft reset, info on apple site and throughout web. Usually involves hold, unhold and holding down play and select at same time. Differs for different models of pod.

Salivating over someones recent purchase while mine was in for exhaust check. Beautiful car, anyone on here?

that blue v6 is soo nice- i want one. 5gt looks well nice too

bag of sh*te

Anyone know of any garages in scotland capable of setting up h&r's on a 182?

Thinking of getting h&r coilovers. Read on previous posts that its important that they are set up correctly to get the most out of them. Anyone located in scotland (im in ayrshire) had them fitted and set up and if so could you recommend a good garage to do this. Cheers

Ive been considering getting a rear arb for a wee bit now. Heard some real good things about them. There was a guy from dunfermline who was trying to sell them on this forum before. Do a search for whiteline anti roll bars.

Doesnt really smell or indeed taste like coolant or screenwash tho i dont drink or smell much of either. Prefer dot 5.1 brake fluid!

Hey, Noted that i have a minor water leak. Im not sure if its from the cooling system so will be monitoring the coolant level for the next few days to eliminate a water leak from radiator/cooling system. Occured that it may also be water from the air con unit. I know other cars deposit some...

seriously nice, hope u enjoy cleaning it as much as u like driving it! I admit im jealous coz next to mine urs sparkles in the sunlight mines looks like s**t. How much time and effort is involved in getting it shining like that?

Got it plugged- £10 and ordered a pe2 to replace the tyre with the 4 nails- £91 from kwik fit price matched with black circle. Not bad price. I couldnt be bothered going down the mytyres.co.uk route. Should give it a try when going for new tyres as kwik fit state that they will price match any...
