Well after being made redundant from Mini ive managed to get another job sorted. I also felt that it was about time i bought myself something a bit quicker. Always wanted a cooper S and now ive finally taken the plunge and got one! Only a few quick snaps so apologies for the picture quality...

Was between 4-6pm i think today, was at work and a gorgeous LY vee pulled up and dropped someone off and then drove off. Made my day after a crappy day! Anyone?:)

Anyone? Looked absolutely stunning!

Saw you coming off the motorway and round the roundabout just near Barlborough about 7:50ish i think this morning. Car sounded lovely too! Just noticed the CS sticker in the window as you drove past:cool:

Parked outside waiting for some food. Seemed to make eye contact although was probably looking at my car thinking "what a shed!" Anyone off here?

Think it was between 2 and 3pm pulled up nearly next to it, had black wheels with a yellow lip around, looked stunning!

Saw this on Derby road on Friday 31st August at around half 7am. Anyones?

Right was talking with a mate last night who commented on my car and how it sounded quite good for a wee 1.2, when we looked underneath he noticed that after the cat, there no silencer except the one which is right at the back of the exhaust where they all are, but shouldnt there be two...

Did a search and couldnt find anything so sorry if its a repeated topic. Been driving since early November but never got time to my pass plus, im 18 now, is it worth doing? What are your experiences on insurance price drops due to having pass plus? Any feedback is appreciated:star:

Saw a black 197 on Derby road about 7:30 this morning! Anybody?

Saw a lovely blue vee on old sheff road today afternoon. It had a private plate on, was something like M8XY VG or something, the G was made to look like a six. Anyone?

Hopefully in Jan i get my 1 year ncb, do you think i can insure a 172 for under 2k fully comp? Im 18 by the way. Just trying to work out whether to spend money on my car now or save for a 172 if i can afford it next year. Thankies :)

Ok well my insurance company is being stupid and wont allow me to do anything other than alloys, which is already done, so what else could i do where by i dont have to tell them about it. Like if i were to upgrade my speakers, put a dynamique spoiler on etc, would i need to tell them about that...

Followed down Loundsley green road and into Newbold by a lovely red 197 at around 4pm ish today. Anyone?:approve:

Ok well i was about to purchase the Magnex system Guesty is selling on here, so i try and get through to the insureres, and eventually get through, and apparently they wont cover me for it! They never told me any of this, and apparently the only mod they cover for is alloys! I mean if you are...

Will a magnex system off a ph2 16v fit a 1.2 8v?

Any good? Or is it best to pay a bit more and get a direct fit? Anyone recommend any good universal back boxes? Or direct fit for a mk2ph1 1.2 8v? Many thanks:)

When should the cambelt be changed on a Mk2 Ph1 1.2? Also is there any way you can tell it needs doing like the noise it makes or something? Many thanks.

I have a mk2 ph1 clio with 17" megane nervasport wheels on it. So far thats the only mod thats been done. When i have 4 people in, theres a scraping noise when i pull off, and when i go round corners. i want to get it lowered but im worried that if i do, then it will scrape all the time. Any...

Ok recently ive noticed when changing from 1st to 2nd sometimes theres a loud squeeking noise that seems to come from under the gear, near the gearbox i presume, but it only does it if im giving it some (well however much you can give a 1.2 :S) anyone know what it is? Is it the clutch going...

Sorry but its that time again for another noob question. Basically i want an induction kit for my mk2 ph1 1.2 8v, but i see it as being more complex than other cars. By this i mean there is a large black box behind the engine(with the green clip on it), i assume to control the incoming air temp...

Before: After: Now all i need to do is lower it. Comments welcome :)

I decided to get a quote from confused.com (i know they suck :clown:) for a 182, bare in mind im 17 with obviously no NCB. I expected it to be over double what i was paying and it was, except for the bottom one..if you can see it, it says..wait for it... £17,686.20!!!!!!!! What the hell is with...
