Hi, I've just put a set of the new Toyo Proxes T1 Sports on mine, replacing Kuhmo Ecsta Sports, so far I am very impressed, good wet and dry grip, they are quiet and feel a lot more solid ( if that makes sense!) I got them for £90 each, so not too expensive.

Hi to you, and thanks, It is a very welcoming forum, which I think is great, cheers

Hi James, Ash and Smiler, Thanks for the welcome, really like the 197 already, what Subaru?! I can also now not worry too much about the cost of driving it which makes the whole experience more enjoyable, cheers, Mel.

Cheers Foxspeed

Thank you

Hi Fernandez, that's worth knowing, mind, mine is off a lot of the time anyway!

Hi and thanks, what Jap cars have you had?

Hi, mine's Nimbus as well, you are not alone!

That's what the Subaru tuner said really, mind you, I do like a nice exhaust note, oh when will it all stop! Thanks for the advice.

Thank you

Hi Rich, thanks for that, the price sounds reasonable. As mentioned i am booked in with the Renault dealer in Exeter, know i'll pay more, but it's across the road from where I work, so no travelling costs, swings and roundabouts eh! My car was last serviced by Rentech, will check them out, cheers.

Morning Willis, I was going to try V-Power next week on my way up to Japfest @ Castle Combe (if they'll let me in lol) really for all the reasons you have mentioned. I was thinking of changing the cat etc, had a chat with my Subaru tuner who has worked on all sorts and likes Clios, he reckons...

Best I could get on the motorway plus bit of B roading was an estimated 28mpg, that was taking it easy though, otherwise I was keeping Shell in business! oh, that's a point, I see the Clio will run ok on 95ron, haven't tried V Power yet, any performance benefits from your experience?

Hi, really enjoying it thanks, haven't really pushed it yet, been too busy concentrating on seeing how high I can get my average consumption up to! good job I didn't have a trip computer on the Impreza! It was an 03 Blobeye WRX, but had it re-mapped to 271.5bhp (.5 being the important bit!) had...

Hi Grumpy! that is weird, will post some if you really are interested, I am enjoying the Clio without even pushing it yet, looks good as well which is always a bonus!

Hi, ta for the welcome, I agree, it's a shame that petrol and insurance is so expensive these days, certainly takes some of the fun out of certain cars like Imprezas etc

thanks Willis, famous last words eh!

Haven't had time for a good search yet, did see Rentech @ Portsmouth, can you recommend anyone? I have booked in for a cam belt change with the main dealers in Exeter next week - charging £595 including tensioners, other belts and bits, seems a lot, they where asking £700 + initially though.

Thank you

Hi Jase, and thanks - well it has in terms of basics like insurance and petrol, but I did say that I wouldn't do anything to it a week ago, now planning more POWWWER! lol
