It depends, judging by the forums it could either be a few pennies to fix or over a £1000! Got it booked in for a diagnostic tomorrow & then take it from there I think Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Well my day of took shopping came to a grinding halt!! The steering on my every day car decided that it would be good if the steering stopped working.. so yeah a pretty serious job which isn't going to be cheap judging by the forums, so I got to save every penny [emoji53] gutted! Sent from my...

Haha! Yeah I think I'm going to go & do a bit of toy shopping tomorrow! Pick up some new spanners & a breaker bar. This driveshaft WILL come out! Lol Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Not much to say on tonight's work. I did manage to get the torx screw off but was then met by a brick wall when neither of the 2 bolts holding the hub would come off [emoji35] I'm going to have to invest in some proper tooling me thinks! [emoji23] Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Yeah I'm really excited to get my first run under my belt. Went to my first club meeting the other night & they do Tests but not Solos so I might have to skip the first step & go straight to tests lol might think about not getting the car taxed or anything & invest the money into a cheap...

Yeah whilst I got it off I'm going to give everything a good wire brush & a good clean (might even give it a paint lol). I'll have a crack at it with the chisel & if that don't work I'll drill it out. I got a Halfords & Euro car parts just down the road which is handy... & expensive! Haha Sent...

Got working on changing the driveshaft this evening & WD40 has been my best friend!! 😂 But I FINALLY got the fricking hub nut off! Yaaaay! :grin: So got the calliper off & the pads out, so far so good.. Got to the last torx screw holding the brake disc in aaaaaaannnnnnnndddddd its...

That's my plan fella. I'm just messing around in the 1.2 really, just finding my feet. I'm going to mistakes in the beginning with handling & driving etc so I'd rather break a cheap 1.2 than a few hundred quid 172 lol & then like you suggested, once I get more confident I can transfer as much as...

I've already found my navigator, I got the smallest & thinnest person I could find! Haha i don't know how I feel about moving to a 1.4 & then moving to a 2.0. I think I'd just rather jump straight to a 2.0 Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

& then acting on James's advice, when I do buy a Clio sport I can transfer everything from the 1.2 to the new car. The 1.2 is basically just so that I can get to know & understand a car better, & how everything works, & how the racing world works, clubs, events, car regs etc. Once I get more...

Got a 1.2 for the reasons you just mentioned & cz of what James said aswell, 172/182 are top classes. Didn't think it would be good for me to start in a class like that with no experience... The problem I got is that I've been playing rugby for 20 years, so I've got a rugby player build lol so...

Why a 1.4? Everybody on these forums seem to be in a 172/182 lol how long have you both been racing for? Is there much of a difference car spec wise between Targa & 12 cars? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Aww is it? I may aswell leave the back seats in then lol put a cage in when I start doing rallying etc. To be honest when I'm ready to uograde I'll probably keep the car & just change the engine & relative components. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Just had a look at the regs for Targas & you're allowed to take out the back seats to install a roll cage! So I think after I've done a few Solos I'll be modifying the car to be more suited for Targas! [emoji16] Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
