[banther]

Sorry mate didnt mean to sound negative!!

​Mine is fooked anyway so I'm no one to say haha.

 

[Simon_16v]

Haha don't worry I didn't take offense.

Just a good enough excuse to change it

 

[Simon_16v]

posted on your flickr earlier mate our cars are very similar indeed, even down to the exhaust. Although mine is wonkier

 

[Simon_16v]

Ahh are you vlcaddick? Yours is a bit newer than mine lol

 

[Gandi69]

Yeah robbing my sisters yahoo account for flickr haha
mines only an 05 so not too much later, probably built at the same time

 

[Simon_16v]

Mine is a 2005 but registered as a 54 plate. You off to Trax this year?

 

[Simon_16v]

Prepared for Trax by Simon_89, on Flickr

All cleaned for Trax tomorrow

 

[leeds_182]

My guess is it won't be that clean when you get there!

 

[Simon_16v]

Got a tub full of quick detailer and some microfibres, will get Kyle to assist if needs be lol

 

[hanby42]

That's dedication lol

 

[Simon_16v]

Got my first trackday bought before the weather turns for the worse. I've Cadwell booked for the 2nd of October and I'm really looking forward to it

 

[leeds_182]

Good stuff mate - don't bin it.

 

[Simon_16v]

I've booked a 20min instructor session so that I learn the track a bit better, will be worth the £20

 

[leeds_182]

You off with Kyle?

 

[Simon_16v]

Yeah. He has said "no overtaking rally cars" lol

 

[Simon_16v]

4 x Continental Contact Sport 3's ordered for Cadwell next weekend. Hopefully get to see how a high end tyre performs over previous ones I've had before.

 

[leeds_182]

What did that cost dude? I could've got you a set of 15s with rubber for around the cost of those. Seems like too much of a nice tyre to shred on a track day!

 

[Mr Plums]

This car has come on great mate, it looks really nice now, the cup spoiler has made a massive difference.

Have you sorted the scuff near the numberplate bulb?

 

[Simon_16v]

Track day was £99 and then £20 for an instructor and £5 so I can go as a passenger in Kyle's Impreza. I don't have the space to accommodate an extra set of wheels though Jim . I can't see them being destroyed as I won't be going hell for leather...

Thanks mate, when I went to pick the spoiler up, my mate still had some paint left over so went around the car and touched up any little marks to make them look less obvious.

True, I did a day on some toyos and didn't shred them.

Just done my first track day at Cadwell Park, bought a CD with all my track photos on....

[Andy93]

Cracking pics!

 

[Steven_K]

Some great pics mate. Were you on std road tyres ?

 

[leeds_182]

Nice pic with kyles scoob in - how much juice did he use?

 

[Mr Plums]

I hope you were about to lap the rover, or did he do you? Nice pics

 

[Forge197]

Great Pics, what a great colour too looks lovely

 

[Jacky_T]

looks great love the track photos too! love this colour!

Day cost me £100 in fuel, included driving there and back ofc.

Didn't do a huge amount of track mileage though, as the morning was wet with promise of drying up by lunch time - but the dry afternoon was littered with red flags and armco repairs

I should probably mention that I was very impressed with both Simons' Clio and his driving at Cadwell - the car was immense, never been in a FWD car which just gets on with it quite so much - and Simon was certainly pushing hard too.

Decided to put the colourful ClioSport sticker on the rear window yesterday. In the process of doing some googling I also found out that the 182 has heated wing mirrors too

Gone back to the standard headunit too, got fed up of the Alpine unit throwing an error up when I connected my iPhone 5 up to it. Can't complain as it is pretty old. Bought an aux cable but need to route it a different way rather than through the glove box,

Bought some gloss black dash strips to replace the standard satin silver ones. Gave them a good polish and fitted them, just seems to make the inside a bit classier

 

[Simon_16v]

Bought a set of Cooksport springs now they are finally in stock. I'm going to replace both top mounts when they arrive and fitted

 

[leeds_182]

Good purchase homie.

 

[Simon_16v]

Cheers Jim, out for delivery tomorrow too. Just need to bribe Kyle to fit them soon

 

[Ash']

Looks at home on the track! Inferno is such a nice colour.

 

[realnumber 1]

Brilliant pics above. The colour really shines out on those which isn't easy with inferno.

 

[Simon_16v]

Thanks guys, I try keep the car as clean as I can but it does 40miles a day on my daily commute.

Cooksport springs are out for delivery today hopefully
