They might use DOT4 as that's race fluid I believe. They don't need hugely beefed up brakes cos they have quite a bit less weight and slicks, so just changing pads gives desired performance and helps cut costs, win win. Reckon they must get through quite a few pads though lol

Keep your black one and spend the money on doing stuff with the car like trips etc.

Haha! The plot thickens. Keep us all posted, i wana know how this turns out :-D

I wouldn't worry about the cost........as your mate should be stumping up for this! Hope it gets sorted mate!

Bit harsh....don't have to be quite so abrupt. People are entitled to their opinion which is usually based on personal experience. Just because someone's experience differs doesn't automatically make it wrong. But it depends on system. There are some out there where you are better off with...

As rob and andy said above, best to do remap last. As for MOT, yes it'll pass on emissions, but rules came in last year that means if a cat has been removed then its an instant fail regardless of emissions. However, the garage has to know that there was one there in the first place, which...

This thread isn't what i was expecting from the title lol Sorry to see your selling mate. Hopefully you can find your way into something fun again sooner or later.

step away!

This sums it up very well, couldn't have put it better myslef!

This all comes down to what each persons objectives are when buying. If you use it as a daily and prefer the more mpg, 5 door practicalilty etc etc then the new 200T is undoubtedly better. However, if you use you 197/200 on track and as a toy or are very much into having a 'drivers' car...

Mates dad uses a Passat with no problems, 2ltr diesel.

Think its very likely that if you bought your car from a main dealer then you'll get a letter. I know that the dealer i got mine from has already got dates etc of when they're getting th enew 200T and will be sending me a notification of when i can book a test drive.

Nice collection but big waste! Plus quite often, not using cars like that can actually be worse for them mechnically. They're built to be driven!

Try Federal 595RSR's, very good and cheaper than ad08's

ITG Air filter - didn't really feel or hear any difference in its own but for the price it can't hurt. 8/10 Miltek cat-back system - excellent! 10/10 AMD remap - gain of 10bhp with the above, but the main difference the extra driveability and its nice having a few extra rpm to play with...

Nice one! I could walk around that city for hours looking at all the....er....sites, taking in the smells and tasting those lovely organic herbal brownies :-)

Totally agree, problem is a lot of that market are very badge driven, so whether renault can live up to the audi/bmw/mini/vw im not so sure. I'm inclined to think that if someone is after a little hatchback that is sporty, well built, good 'dsg' style box, econimical etc etc, surely they'd go...

Dito, so heres to hoping!

REALLY!!!??? do you read EVO lol....these cars are celebrated because they have a manual box, same goes for the gt3. Manual makes things more of challenge meaning that when you get it right its more rewarding. Put it this way, in flappy box if you go into corner in too higher gear its no big...

Power doesn't equal better! The reason why the current clio is so good is because of the involvment it gives and in some ways because it hasn't got huge amounts of power. If you want power, might as well just get a used meg or rs focus etc as thats where the new clio price is equivalant to...
