    172 cup vs Megane sport

    from what i remember the floor pan and suspension come from the micra as the platform was designed for both companies to produce a small car. i vaguely remembering something silly like the light position couldn't be changed between the cars. Something to do with legalities of light positioning...

    172 cup vs Megane sport

    no actually i meant both which is why i wrote both. The new clio 200 may be faster than the old rs clios and probably the meg, but i'm not geeky enough to look that up. However the v6 will always win in a pose down. (flex those intakes gents) My wife has a new shape clio (ok only 1.4) and it...

    172 cup vs Megane sport

    i used to own a mk1 172 and after getting old and sick of perpetual back ache from driving it i got a meg 225. For me the difference is in the way the cars produce their power and the way they handle. i fitted eibachs to my 172 which at the time were the way forward in handling. The...

    new hidden speed cam in newcastle !!

    Not saying that they aren;t speed cameras, but i had a look on the holier than thou "speed for life" website, which is Northumbria polices partner in their scamera scheme and there is no mention of the sites. By all accounts they have to publish where these new sites are, though i admit i might...

    things that go bump....

    Alpine Stereo

    your alpine head unit control the factory fit changer even though it is an alpine. I had this problem when i put alpine kit into my car. Apparently its something to do with the software they run on not being compatible, or it could have just been the shop i got it from screwing me for a new cd...

    Boot Help!!!!!

    You can make the floor in three sections with the middle section having the amp mounted to it. The 2 sides then have ledges for the middle one to be supported on when the section is down. Make the side pieces contoured to the boot sides and cover in carpet. This also fills in any gaps rather...
