    Turinis 7x17 Will they fit my car? Not a Renault!

    Need some quick advice here - Will 7x17" 5x115 PCD with a centre bore of 85mm fit my 2005 Impreza STi? I know my PCD is 5x114.3 (so surely they would fit that aspect of the wheel with only a 0.7mm difference?) I'm more curious about the width and centre bore, if the 85mm bore is too big can't I...

    Quick question - my computer is recognising my Ipod Touch as a camera?

    As title, when I plug my Ipod Touch (1st generation I think, about 5 years old!) in to my computer, it recognises it as a Digital camera?! All i'm wanting to do is transfer my songs from my Ipod to my computer, I can only seem to access the pictures on my Ipod (hence it registering it as a...

    Advice on rights to claim settlement

    Hi all, I used to own an immaculate Clio Williams 3. Unfortunately I wrote it off last week. At the moment I'm going through the claim procedure with Admiral and they phoned up today offering me a settlement no where near what I was expecting. I paid £5000 for the car last January, and it really...

    Clio 197 - worth camming?

    Im 99% sure I want a 197 as my next car. Already planning modifications! Are the 197s worth camming? What other performance mods are worthwhile? Looking at most likely pre-cat delete, de-cat and yozza cat-back. Not expecting massive power - but 200-210bhp isn't unrealistic for these mods is it?
