I've been thinking a lot about some sort of Diesel/RS hybrid badge for the boot. I mentioned it in passing to Tom when I picked the car up and it's been playing on my mind ever since.
My PS skills are limited; but I've come up with this. It's the Diesel badge from a Holden combined with the...
Here we go again.....:cool:
Last weekend I drove the 300 mile round trip to St Ives to sway my MUCH loved 172 Cup for Tom (Wests Renault) and Zoe's equally loved DCi 80. As you may or may not know, over the course of 2 years Tom has built this car up to be a flawless Sport rep. Everything about...
Hi everyone,
A garage that fitted new tyre's on my Turini's have admitted responsibility for making a mess of the alloy and are willing to pay for the refurb.
I'm wanting to book them into MSS in Morley BUT unfortunately can't afford for them to have my car for the whole week.
I'm in need of...
Hi Guys,
Please bare with me, I'd really like some advice on where I stand.
About a year ago I took my totally standard 172 Cup for a new exhaust. I shopped around for a while and got a quote of £190 from a local garage for a standard non-genuine cat-back system. At the time I did think it was...
Just after peoples experiences with different brands....
I'm looking at this atm....

This stuff any good?
It looks OK. I'm wanting to refresh the bay a bit and give the inlet/engine mounts/rocker/injector cover a fresh coat of...
....I want one with the red/black plastic terminal covers.
Mine still has the original battery and recently it's been taking 2 turns of the key to start. It's getting worse and worse and my fears were confirmed with I put a multi-meter across it. I could blow harder than what it's putting out...
As if I didn't want one already, but after TG on sunday and a recent payrise I've seriously got the itch for a FF Hero-spec AG 200....
I'm wanting the know the practicalities though, eg, loan or finance? Monthly or one-off?
I've done a bit of homework and don't really fancy that PCP thing...
I'm sure it's been covered many times before but I'm not finding anything specific to the problem I'm having using the search function.
Each morning start of my car is the weakest. It takes a good 6/7 ticks before it fires up and has been getting worse....sometimes it takes 2 turns of the key...
I have a 172 Cup with standard rear shocks that need changing.
That aside, ever since I brought the car I've noticed that any time I roll over a bump or drive on a bumpy surface there's a *TINKLING* (best word I can come up with) from specifically the drivers-side rear suspension.
Imagine a...
'ello :approve:
Just wondering if any of you guys were meeting up any time soon?
I'm based in Elland and know there's a few of you nearby (jenic?)
I've owned French Cars for 6 years now and look forward to getting stuck in with Clio's.
After 6 months with my 172 Cup it still makes me smile...

Of the two on the bottom of the list....what one will fit my 172 Cup?
Cheers.
Hi guys,
my 172 Cup is booked in tomorrow for MOT/60k service.
It had an interim service @ 56000 when I brought it and it's now JUST ticked over 60k.
I know the Cambelt/Aux Belt/Dephaser was done @ 25k and am not worried about them getting done till early 2012.
My question is what is...
Hi I'm Adam and this is my new car....
I picked it up from South Wales today and drove it the 220 miles home. They were a GOOD 220 miles!
After a LONG TIME searching I found this little Stunner.
She's getting a new Cam Belt next week for good measure and a detail/winter jacket next week...
Hi Everyone,
I'm new here.
I'm very good mates with MikeCracknall. We've known each other years and have been through it all with Saxo's. I personally have owned a Westcoast, VTR AND VTS. After I sold my track-prepped VTS last year I grew up a bit and got a little shitbox Fiesta while I used...
