Ignis number 2

[not normal dan]

Really like this. I also like the fact it probably feels like it's going really quick because your foots on the floor, but in a controlled/fun manner, if you know what I mean

There is nothing controlled when @SteBurns is behind the wheel haha

 

[imprezaworks]

Well there is that. Seems a fun car that you can just nail on track whilst smiling.

 

[Mr Burns]

I'm definitely going to have to concentrate harder with no ABS and 172ps :wink:

 

[imprezaworks]

172?

 

[Mr Burns]

172 Cup (fingers crossed)

 

[imprezaworks]

Ah. Thought you were upgrading the powerz on the ignis

 

[Mr Burns]

Not much I can do without deep pockets. A cheap Clio with good brakes and tyres makes more sense.

 

[imprezaworks]

It does tbf. You keeping the ignis

 

[Mr Burns]

Yep... As a daily/Curborough car.

 

[imprezaworks]

Good stuff. Hope you find a nice Clio

 

[Mr Burns]

I went to A-Line in Dudley today to have the front toe and camber set. The weather and traffic was too crappy to test out the alterations, so I'll save that for another day!

 

[Mr Burns]

And the results...

 

[sbridgey]

That should be handling a hell of a lot better now! that toe setting before was huuuge!

 

[Mr Burns]

Just needs some RS-R's now!

Another car might emerge shortly though!

 

[not normal dan]

Looks good Ste, that shows how altering things like camber and ride height has such a big effect on geo settings.

Gave it some beans yet

 

[Mr Burns]

Not yet mate, as you know I'm a very reserved driver and don't like to drive with any form of aggression unless the conditions are absolutely perfect :smirk:

Yeah I should of known better

 

[Mr Burns]

Annnnnnnnndddddd...

I have another!

 

[imprezaworks]

Good choice mate.

 

[Mr Burns]

...Again lol.

I've had 4 now!

 

[imprezaworks]

Like me with bloody clios lol

 

[Mr Burns]

Indeed. I've now had...
4 Clio's
4 Ignis's
2 Mini's
2 Fiesta's
2 MX-5's
2 Leon's

...A creature of habit for sure!

 

[josh11490]

Something about these that really makes me want to have a decent drive in one on some decent roads, everything I've read about them has been good.

 

[Mr Burns]

They're just a laugh to drive... Not the fastest thing in the world being a 1.5 but with the right driver on the right track they'll surprise you.

Think of a 106Gti crossed with a Honda Jazz...

 

[RichieJA]

Not a jap car fan at all but there is something cool about that car never seen one before today.

 

[Mr Burns]

I've never bought one for its looks, but I like having something a bit different.
I've done loads of trackdays in them in the past and I always end up overtaking loads of cars lol.

 

[v15ben]

Looks very good fun to me. Followed a black Iggy Sport in Milton Keynes today funnily enough!

 

[RichieJA]

The main thing is you like it I had a type r and a wrx in the past hated them never gave me a single problem thou I had a 2.1 turbo mk3 fiesta that broke constantly that I still miss lol

Gonna keep my eye out for these from now on I'm surprised how well small fwd cars do on the track clearly rwd isn't king

 

[Mr Burns]

I've had a Type-R which I wasn't keen on too, even though it was a great car.

 

[RichieJA]

Always wanted a escort cossie

 

[theburns1]

Too much love going out for these cars, they look awful and they are scary as fook! Every island has to be taken flatout, every car is a race and constantly needs to show me how good they handle. This is just going to work

 

[roland rat]

@Mr Burns how supportive are the recaro's fitted to the ignis? I've got a chance to buy a pair cheap and thinking about fitting them to my 306 GTI-6

 

[Mr Burns]

They're crap but they look cool. Not supportive at all really!

 

[roland rat]

ok thanks think ill get them anyway as they look cool! B)

 

[Mr Burns]

Ignis number 4 has just flown through its MOT with no advisories, can't fault it!

However I'm planning a summer full of roadtrips and adventures and this isn't really the car to do it in, so no doubt it'll be gone soon!

 

[Heez]

I miss mine

Pfffft, if I can do a 1400 mile road trip with "those" coilovers then so can you! Perfect road trip cup holders remember!

 

[Mr Burns]

I literally can't find anything better for the money, and anyone who thinks they're crap needs a 20min shotgun ride in mine lol. It would be nice to have something comfier though, as I'm not 21 any more!

 

[daveski]

Want a Focus? I will buy one of these one day.

 

[Mr Burns]

I could do with a Focus as it fits the bill, but this Ignis is just awesome like all the others I've owned. Just something about it, even more so than a 172/182 IMO.

 

[Akay]

Let me know when you sell!
