Twingo RS133

[Feirny]

Just a few quick shots of nixieJs Twingo, he's put a set of Turinis from his Trophy on it, and it looks awesome. Nowt too spesh as I'm suffering from whiplash, so a few standard shots...

And the eventual plan...

EDIT: Are the pics working for anyone? They're not for me, but are on flickr?

Yep, work fine on flickr, but don't if I copy the links.

 

[ForceIndia]

Can only see one pic?

 

[Feirny]

Hmm, odd.

Same colour scheme as my brothers. Oddly, despite being a small car looks under-wheeled on 16's? Is it just me that thinks the offset looks a bit odd here?

 

[DrR]

Twingos are sex wee!

Its because you uploaded from iphoto (i presume), and copied the links too quick.

You have to upload your pics, then wait for iphoto to finish with the processing it does through flickr, then copy the links. Or do what I have now done and use flickr uploadr.

 

[magh]

Shizzle

Looks great! I love the shot in your album on Flickr of the line up of clios with the multi coloured window building.

 

[The Chubby Pirate]

I cant believe im going to say this but that would look alot better if the Turinis were silver

Nope, Flickr uploader mate. Straight up.

F*ck you.

He's taken your birthday present with him, and he's told me the other thing I got you, you've already got. Which isn't here yet btw.

Cheers mate.

If they weren't black I'd photoshop them, but CBA LOL.

Mine stuck out about that much on my TwingoRS..But mine had 172cup turinis on and thought the offsets where different?
Still looks nice though

 

[jenic]

Nope, Flickr uploader mate. Straight up.

Wierd, I had this exact issue and it stopped when i stopped using iphoto.

 

[Munson]

I love these heaps :approve:

 

[Feirny]

It's amazing, and gets so much attention!

 

[Gaz.]

I'm with Warren, looks odd on the turinis. A tad lower and maybe a bit of spacer would help.

 

[DrR]

What real world MPG to they do?

 

[pritchp]

What real world MPG to they do?

i get 220 miles out of a full tank....

 

[The Chubby Pirate]

I'd like to see a twingo on standard anthracite 182 wheels!

 

[The Chubby Pirate]

Your getting under 27mpg? You must ring that things f**king neck!

 

[Fletcher]

White is the best colour for these IMO.

 

[pritchp]

Your getting under 27mpg? You must ring that things f**king neck!

haha not really.. just drive it how its meant to be driven... its used daily for commuting though so i sit in traffic some times..and then others just wanna get home quickly.

 

[Danny133]

I get 150-200 miles on a tank I'm even worse

Good work danny!

 

[Munson]

Yeah I can imagine. They are so funky and unique looking. I've never driven one but I gather they are a good crack.

 

[Feirny]

I haven't had a stab at one yet either, but might go test drive one soon.

Like the concept?

 

[Feirny]

A corvette?

 

[twingors]

I get 230 MAX. 8.8 gallon tank.

Around 30mpg i think.. Greedy when giving it some though:dapprove:

 

[pritchp]

Exactly.. it just likes its drink lol

 

[Andy.]

A corvette?

I see a twingo? Fixed it anyway.

 

[Mark One]

16s or less on a twingo. Have no idea why it was built with 17s

Nice car OP

No mate, I got about 29 average when I worked it out.

Miss it

: (

 

[DrR]

less tahn 30mpg? says 42 combined on the stats?

 

[pritchp]

the stats are a MASSIVE lie!! you can try all you like..but it will never meet the stats.

 

[Craigus]

Yeah, that's b****cks, part of the reason why we got rid, was expecting good economy.

29 was my average, 26 round town, 36 on a run.

21 when thrashing it once.

 

[pritchp]

i filled up on saturday and it cost me £42. ive now used half a tank.. and ive clocked up 141 miles so far since the fill up.. im not doing too bad at the moment!

 

[Justin]

Awesome cars!

 

[Munson]

£42

I just put £74 in my barge, and it'll all be gone by the morning.

The 17 inch wheels make the car to be honest. I love mine there great fun to drive but i want a 197 f1 when i can afford one!
