That sounds pretty low to me even if it does have 173k...!
Is the timimg maybe needing adjusted? Thats essentially 35bhp of a transmission loss.. Seems quite low?

It's been a thrashed to the max this year doing sprints and hillclimbs so I'm not surprised.
It managed to get me second overall in the Chester and Liverpool Speed championship and 3rd overall in the Longton and district sprint and hillclimb championship so can't complain really.

Yep, I'd be heppy with that, lol
Probably just a cracked knock sensor! Bet you'd have got at least another 100k out of an Imp single turbo (if it was an ej20)

Yep, makes remembering the cambelts easier
Although due to my stupidity, it has had two cambelts in 9 months. What a monumental chump.

Have a look in my project thread bud, there are photos. Basically he needs a keyweyed lower pulley off a Megane R26 / 225 and the corresponding crank bolt. Ask Potter, as he knows the part code off by heart I would suspect

We bought it in february on circa 90k, I'm not sure what it was like for the previous owner but for us it has been pretty much faultless, we had to replace the wishbones for it's recent MOT but other than that it has cost us nothing aside from service items.
The inside still looks brand new, small bit of wear of the steering wheel but certainly nothing to write home about!

my 2004 320d has 179,600 on it. I'll be keeping it until next summer so will probably see nearly 190,000 before I get shut.
I was considering renting some local garage space (only got enough room for 4 cars at ours) and keeping it as the family mule but not sure how much use it would get now my kids are starting to learn to drive.

BG Clio 182
The car I learnt to drive in was a 1.5 petrol swift I believe, that had done 220,000 miles with all of those being as a driving instructor vehicle brand new! I frequently pass her now and as I've been passed like a year and a half averaging 30k a year means it'll have done 265k now haha! It felt a bit knackered though to be fair haha.

our driving school twingos get replaced at 2yrs 100k and they are done by then. We used to use Toyota Starlets and they would get replaced at 4yrs sometimes 230k+ and they were still on the original clutch!!
to give the twingo their due though they do 100k in 2 years and all they require is serviced, tyres and brakes. never needed any sensors, coil packs etc etc

Great Pics! Love the old GC8C. They did make some improvements to the later models. My scooby is the MY97 2.2 short block with forged pistons & rods (moly coated pistons). The piston skirt was reshaped and the piston weight was reduced by approximately 100 grams. Compression ratio was increased to 9.7:1 by reshaping the piston crown.
I'm on 170k miles and doesn't miss a beat. That said, I've had to change the knock sensor to keep the 'Elves with hammers' at bay! The knock sensor location is a crap design & they tend to get a puddle of water around the base of the sensor where it's bolted to the block, causing the housing of the sensor to crack, split & corrode. Once that happens, the sensor won't detect pre-ignition (detonation) & r****d the timing. Hence forth, the Elves come out to play :smile:
