Donington Park Flamer:

Yup, correct - here it is, the day I took delivery:

Thanks mate - you're on telly! (very old vid, hope this works) http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6EJBdWcmW0A

Just returned from there mate :approve:

We got the thick-end of £1000 out of that appeal if I remember rightly. I never did take the stickers off the car - it was still like that when I part-exed it for the Megane.

Mine came out of the showroom, got covered in stickers and spent virtually all it's life at Donington Park. As Jeremy C once said, "this is fun, but soon I will be dead".

Oh yes - we were sooooo cool! :cool::cool:

Brands Hatch, 2002 I think, whilst the Clio Cup races were supporting the BTCC Series. We did a few parade laps during the lunch interval. I think we had 130 Clios that day. I am driving the red 172 reg T8 *** 3rd from the front on the right of the pic.

Hi mate! Kept the Vee for 18 months (sold it 4 years ago) - then got a Megane 225 F1 - kept that for almost 4 years!

Possibly the greatest Cliosport meet of all time. It was a while ago:

Depends entirely on what you're going to use it for to be honest mate. If it's for regular filestore (documents, photos etc) then anything will do, although the less you spend the more it's likely to go wrong. The Buffalo and similar solutions are optimised for video and audio streaming - they...

lol did you have the shopkeeper's daughter in the boot of your motor at the time? ;)

Paid £289 in a shop in Brum for Premium pack and Table Tennis. Got extra controller and a couple of play & charge kits off ebay.

They're ok but the video quality is pretty crap. Depends how you want to view the finished product I suppose. On a DVD through a TV it will look pretty awful, but maybe ok for low-res stuff for the web.

I tried working all this out a few months back. In the end I decided to get everything and see what I used most. The bad news is that I watch a lot more TV now that we have HD. In particular I watch more sport and more films. And surprise surprise, those 2 are the expensive bits. :mad: I have...

cheers Si, here we GOOOOOO! :)

ok I've read all the reviews etc, but can 2 of you just jump in a couple of cars and have a race, without live etc?

yes it is. I swapped my 172 for a V6 255 and never regretted it for a moment :D yes they are :D Tesco wanted double what I was paying for my 172. Ended up with Norwich Union Direct - was just a couple of hundred more than the 172.

Looking good Mr B! :)

Toshiba 42WLT58 on standard stand... http://www.downhillonly.com/tv/6.JPG

^^ blimey. So composite video + analogue audio > SCART would work for a normal TV then??

put it in the back next to one of the rear side windows - works fine with an Origin B2 antenna.

what does the XBOX 360 have in the way of TV outputs? Is it video (yellow) plus stereo (red & white) phonos, SCART, component or what? thanks :D

end of the year now apparently... http://www.renaultsport.co.uk/community/forum/topic.asp?TOPIC_ID=6556

No they are not affected - you can put a centre speaker right under the screen with no ill-effects.

I've seen them, and been annihilated by them, on loads of trackdays. There is nothing, but nothing, like a Clio Williams. Doubt it will save you any money though :)

Fair comment but they can't build an old-skool hatch any more. Reasons: - People expect to survive accidents these days - my old Pug 1.9 GTI was great, but every time it crashed - I got killed. - Even the 172 Cup was too extreme for a mainstream manufacturer - with no ABS and so much poke...

Total amount of Trophys that passed me at Brands Hatch last weekend: 0 ;) were you there?

Welcome back mate, remember you from the (good) old days :approve: 12k service intervals, about £200. 3rd one is a biggy with accessory belt etc.
