    "Road Legal" track car MOT

    Re: Taking bulbs out of warning lights, I'm sure that an initial test is that the light has to illuminate on ignition and then go off, stopping you doing that or putting tape over it etc. I've had a stripped caged Clio for years and the only hassle I got was because the horn was on a push button...

    Daily bucket seat options

    I don't know if I've lucked out with my seat selection or all you are just mard arses. I've got a Corbeau Clubsport XL and its extremely comfortable. It's on a standard sidemount subframe. I've got a Jon Foz subframe to fit but not got round to it. The Clio isn't my daily, BUT I have daily'd it...

    Steering wheel controls

    I can't help you, but Connects2 themselves are pretty helpful. I contacted them regarding a loom for a box I'd bought and they were happy to help. This was around COVID time so not recent, but certainly not in a time where the Clio 2 products were a current item. admin (at) connects2 (dot) com

    Theft deterrents - steering wheel locks, etc.

    I genuinely think the people that are stealing cars either wouldn't know what a Clio 1*2 was, or wouldn't be interested at all. Going back to the "getting woken up by burglars looking for keys" point, a friend of mine used to live in a rough area in an upstairs flat. He would leave his car keys...

    Nurburgring visit - need help!

    If anyone has insurance with Reis, they cancel your policy if they see your vehicle on the ring, whether you make a claim or not. They monitor social media pics apparently. Great company otherwise. My fear with a ring lap is starting off fine, then getting totally overwhelmed and stressed out...

    Manual swapped E61 535D

    I read the advert again, and he's put a Wavetrac diff in it, so defo doing Retail Park D1GP. 6HP is a decent autobox. 8HP is god tier.

    Clio 2 182 BC racing coilover

    ACF50 is good to douse your suspension in to protect it. It's like a wax almost, so it clings to the surface, and it smells delicious.

    Manual swapped E61 535D

    Manual swap something to do with towing? I'm not a pedo so I'm not well versed in caravans etc.

    Clio 182 Turbo

    If you want to mod it, go for it. You can always take the bits off if you're not keen. It's not like you're putting chameleon wrap on the screen and eBay canards on the bumper.

    Titanium MrBlonde

    It looks perfect! Are they 7" wide?

    Titanium MrBlonde

    I'm sure its been covered before and I've forgotten, but are you running spacers on those? They look phenomenal. Are they low offset? 205 wide tyres? Fitment is spot on.

    Recommend me some Headphones

    I still haven't decided what I want. Using the B&W PX7 S3 I tried as a bit of a benchmark, I looked into others. I started with the Cambridge Audio ones they're advertising on social media, but basically ended up doing what I always do: research loads, decide its too much to spend, and then put...

    Recommend me some Headphones

    Back to headphones. I think the Nothing ones are nice but maybe a bit style over substance... I regularly use a pair of basic wireless overears at work to block out the morons when doing complex things. I'm easily distracted/annoyed. The ones I'm using are fine, but have no noise cancelling. A...

    Recommend me some Headphones

    I'd be wearing them at work/home and everyone in those places already thinks I'm a dickhead.

    Recommend me some Headphones

    Nothing headphones: Anyone bought a pair of these/heard any feedback yet? I'm such a tart for design and these are gorgeous.

    That's exactly what I wanted thank you! Didn't know they were a thing.

    Jim's Black Ph2 172 (Just like everyone else's!)

    Update coming soon, but in the meantime, do we think fitting one of these that can be accessed from under the car is a good idea or a gimmick? Am I inviting electrical fires? (Obviously for jump leads/charger/jump pack)

    Help, Ive spent a fortune on my clio .. ruined it and now thinking about selling..

    I'm glad you've got sorted. I've ruined a couple of my cars too, put them back to standard to sell, and then realised how good they were, but the wheels were already in motion.

    2013 BMW 330d

    Oh I know I should have just gone and had a browse. I'm just doing my part to keep forums alive! I'm off to go in the off topic section and post a question about the weather outside my house :ROFLMAO:

    Jesus that's a lot more than I thought. Still strong money aren't they!

    2013 BMW 330d

    What's the going rate for one of these with sub 80k miles? Saloon or wagon (or even 4 series coupe).

    Charity suggestions for CSF25

    Andy's Man Club is a good choice. My mind immediately went to CALM. Similar type of charity. I've read a few threads on here where the forum has supported someone in need, and thought it would be fitting. Not to s**t on anyone else's suggestions.

    2013 BMW 330d

    Love these. Genuinely impressive motors. I had use of one for a while when they first came out. I was driving an e90 335d and it wiped the floor with it. Perhaps not figures wise, but arse-dyno wise it felt strong. Only drawback was the steering felt better on my e90, but in isolation (and for a...

    Amazon fire TV sticks

    I'm just about to setup my new Firestick. I've gone for the 4K Max version when they had money off the other day. I've been using Kodi and Stremio recently on my ancient Firestick. Are they the best/current ones? PM me if preferred, cheers!

    Amazon fire TV sticks

    I've got a new Firestick 4k Max, and I'm wondering what apps are current. Just for film and TV. I've been using Kodi with its various add-ons, but is there something better? I've been using another 'host' type programme but can't for the life of me remember what its called. Edit: Googled it, its...

    Jim's Black Ph2 172 (Just like everyone else's!)

    To be honest its done very few miles since then. Literally single figures. Life has massively got in the way. However I put it on charge today and didn't remember it being massively high at the rear. Will take a pic when the specialist has finished her under bonnet checks:

    Exhaust Options

    I work in engineering supplies and yes, stainless pricing has been mental in the last year! I'm in no rush and would like to give my business to a forum member, even if the group buy just means extra sweets in the order!

    Exhaust Options

    I'd be interested in a stealth twin box system on the group buy!
