    How many ponies have you got?

    185.6 @ rs tuning and really can't see why anyone wants to pay £100s to get 10bhp more. Although new exhausts do sound good.

    Fuel Consumption - How many miles do you get from a FULL TANK?

    Clio Renaultsport 200 Raider

    Exactly! What happens when (not if) a better one comes along! Just imagine you buy a 182 Cup then they bring out the legend, the great and the best Clio ever, the 182 Trophy. I think i would have committed suicide!!

    I like it but that's too many limited editions that are just cosmetic!

    cheap starter DA kit

    Depends on the pad and compound. Not gonna do much damage with a finishing pad and lime prime. You also have to ask yourself why one is safer than the other. Well one gets the job done the other doesn't

    Now it gets serious....(update)

    Well it will be fast, no doubt about that but Im just saying personally i would not make my clio feel like (a very fast) diesel. Id go for a bigger turbo have less torque and more power

    cheap starter DA kit

    Id consider a rotary for about £80 you could get everything you need to remove light swirls safely and quickly. I have both a da and rotary and never use the da anymore

    Now it gets serious....(update)

    Only prob with stage 2'd r26 is you lose the character of the car! The figures of 270bhp and 350lbft mean twice as much torque at peak than redline which is very diesel like! Better would be a bigger turbo keep the torque down a bit to say 300 and power to 330(ish) and you should retain more of...

    Best clay is zymol's but it is far from best value at £30 for a tiny block.

    Its got Zymol Concours on it. Normally they come off whilst washing sometimes even with snowfoam. The issue was the bugs had been left over 2 months!

    Learnt 2 things today!

    1 It does not matter how good a wax you have on the car, if you leave bugs to bake on for 2 (summer)months then they are bloody hard to get off! 2 RaceGlaze Clay is unbelievable poor, it did nothing at all to remove the bug stains and I mean nothing. It did so little that I don't know what I...

    I think I have an addiction...

    Just looking at the website. Funnily they quote carnauba on the cheaper wax but not the more expensive one. Anyway think I'll have a look when im next in the market but still got years of zymol and raceglaze left.
