    Later R.S badging

    I prefer the old one the 197 generation badge. Its still there inside the new badge but the current R.S. isn't really to my taste.

    Spirit Blue Fiesta ST

    Thats a shame mate, silly question but are the bolts long enough for the spacers ? Had this on my first car (corsa) and it turned out the bolts supplied with the spacers weren't actually long enough...

    Rota grid any interest

    Id say an offset of ET55 Thats what the Ultraleggera's are and they sit perfect imo I had 25mm spacers on my first 197 and from some angles it looked really odd, they certainly filled the arches etc. but didnt look a correct oem fit.

    With these upgrades and the times/cars the .R was beating and close too ( M5's etc.) I think and I hope they're out to whip Merc with their A Class. Tall order but the chassis on the 250/265 is unbelievable out the box for a standard road car.

    Opinions on the 197 Cup

    I've had both. I loved my Cup more and didn't miss the keyless entry, climate or air-con. Well maybe the air-con a couple of times at Knockhill on hot sweaty day lol. The way I looked at the Cup over the FF was there was less electrics that could go wrong. Recaros are a must too, they really...

    Motul RBF 600 for me, used it in my 197 Cup and now my Megane.

    not the red baron...

    Looks good mate, Im still undecided on the body coloured 'diffuser' with some colours. The mpg and performace these things have is unbelievable !

    Spirit Blue Fiesta ST

    Love it, you'll notice some difference ! Going from the single piston front calliper to the Abarth Brembo kit on the 500 is by far my favourite mod.

    Civic Type R 2015 - Anyone Else Interested How This Will End Up?

    That looks amazing ! I'm not keen on the quad exhaust though. I think I'd prefer the mugen style twin exhaust that's on the current Type R.

    Astra VXR not 'Extreme' enough???

    http://www.pistonheads.com/news/default.asp?storyId=29509 I like the look of it, apart from the quad exhaust but it still seems a touch too portly !

    Has anyone seen a 200T on the road

    Ive seen a couple actually, a white one which was very nice and a couple of liquid yellow.

    Ashton's 200T EDC - Red Splitter Blade

    Good stuff about the suspension, loving the supersprint system and can't wait to hear it ! So the decat you've opted for does the 200T have a pre cat on the down pipe ? Really want their race back box for the 500 when ours eventually rusts out.

    My Full Fat Mistress - 293bhp F4RT - The end of an era...

    Thats good to know, I might give them a bash next time round.

    My Full Fat Mistress - 293bhp F4RT - The end of an era...

    That's decent then if it was only the once and they were at that pressure, what the wear like on them now still nice and even ? I only brought up lap times so I could get a very rough estimate on what the tyre/lap life would be at Knockhill
