I know V6's been near the £100k & Trophies got above £20k.
But this AG Clio 200 Press Car with 'CL10 CUP' plate is on Collecting Cars. Its on a roll.
I may have had a punt myself at £15k (inc fees). Even with that needs a bit of paint and Recaro's sorted. Too rich for me now...
Coming the other way at Crossbush.
Big waves to me in my Yellow Megane.
Was off to Goodwood to watch some of a time trial sprint at the track. Only downside was muddy field to park in.
I have noticed recently when I put my foot down I get a stutter at 4-5k revs.
It seems to be more under hard throttle with sport button pushed. Although have only experienced 2-3 times.
Now the car is a Megane 275. 6 years old. 22k miles. Just had service about 2 months/3k ago with Cambelt...
My wife got a MX5 earlier in the year.
Its now 8 years old. Only done 6k.
So tyres are 8 year old OEM bridgestones but got 7-8mm on them. When I looked at other low miles MX5's the tyres had cracked sidewalls if still on originals. But these still look like new I guess it was hardly driven &...
Just had a look as was thinking of replacing my front Michelin PS4s on my Megane with the same tyre to match the rears. Not desperate.
Seems like thin pickings on most premium tyres.
Has this been going on post covid?
Not needed Tyres for a while.
Coming through Worthing on the A27 in slow moving traffic yesterday.
Any RS a rare sight these days never mind a Grey one. Last time I saw a Grey one was my own 10 years ago!
Gave the thumbs up in my LY Cup-S.
Anybody used these?
I just got a NC MX5. Its a 25th Anniversary. But its only done 4k miles in 7.5 years and I was told it had never seen rain. And underside looks like it just rolled off the production line.
Now its life is about to change. It will still be garaged when not in use and will...
Got back home today at 15:30.
Had driven through some white gloss somewhere. All up the side of the car. Not a good look on LY.
Nightmare.
Cleaning it up with soapy water & a rag as still wet. Then went over with Autoglym SR polish.
Worst pat was the car was actually quite dirty & gritty in...
I saw a clio 200 for sale on autotrader claiming 240 bhp.
Said it had ktec cam, porting exhaust , filter and remap.
Don't see many n.a. conversions, mostly meg engines.
Anyond had this done?is that power possible?
In a similar vain to the"Anyone going for long drives" hopefully with less abuse.
To relieve boredom I regularly look at pistonheads. Still a few nice cars coming up from private sellers.
Noticed a nice black gold car with low miles and Recaros.
I may have taken a look at such a car, unlikely...
I have a bundle with SKY but since my baby dont really watch TV much & if I do its on Freeview.
Can I cancel TV with them but keep Phone & Net?
Cant be bothered swapping at the moment?
I have seen this car 3 times in the last week.
On a private 'CUP' Plate.
Once on the A259 then in Ferring when it pulled up next to my GW Megane and then at Rustington Sainsburies.
I can usually count on one hand how many 197's/200's I see in a month & this one is haunting me.
I use a baby seat in my 182 with the airbag deactivated.
Is there such a switch in 197/200's?
Its on the passenger door of the 182 & requires key to switch off.
My Wife has a 182 and gets pretty much 40 mpg out of every tank. She has am A Road Commute on empty roads at 50-60 mph.
What would that drop to on a 197?
You must be able to get reasonable economy out of them with this type of driving. Would you see 35 or 36 mpg.
I know most people see...
How easy is it to remove suspension? Front Shocks?
Do you need any specialist tools?
Is is just a case of removing the lower two bolts & the one under the engine bay?
Was just coming home frome thre dentists realing from the £400 it was going to cost.
Lack of concentration and I nudged a kerb. Another £150 I thought thats all I need.
Cracked the splitter in 2 placed as it was nudged back. The Cracks are 75% of the thickness of the splitter.
I popped it...
