    Top gear Argentina

    I think Top Gear as a whole is predictable now. It isn't a car show but a scripted family entertainment show and as that it's very good. I think that as car fans, we think/hope that it's a car show still, but it's really not.

    Decat questions

    You'd be suprised, a quick Facebook status asking for friendly MOT stations to be messaged to you usually works well. My decatted 182 used to fly through MOTs for an extra £20 haha

    crackle map

    When I had one of the first 'pops and bangs' map on my 182, the amount of people who said I'd damage the car, get bore wash and other things was crazy. Never had one issue other than it getting a bit annoying after a while. I've followed Cliosport.net for a while and not seen any issues caused...

    Ktec mani !!!!

    5bhp gains have been seen. Is that on the magical Ktec rolling road that thinks every 197 is over 200bhp or a normal rolling road?

    There were photos of Chris and the same cars with Tiff Needell on Twitter. I'm wondering if Chris will appear on 5th Gear?

    Top grill removal

    Good work. I really need to do mine. Get bored of back to blacking them each week. Very strong clips, usually take my grilles out each time I clean the car as it's so easy.

    From Jap to French, thought I'd say hi.... 197 Cup newbie

    My god that DC5 is amazing. I almost got one before my 197 but the scene tax was just too much for me for the age of the car. Best colour 197 that ;) Welcome to the site

    He did indeed. Chris Harris has now left both Pistonheads and Drive. He's about to embark on a new project which will be announced very soon.

    Cheeky Test Drive

    A girl or a chav, I've been called both for driving a Clio haha. The 197 hasn't yet fallen into the chav bracket yet in my eyes. With prices dropping daily it won't be long though. Although what isn't 'chav' these days? Ok I won't. Absolutly nuts jeez.

    200: Corsa VXR v Clio 200

    Although the Corsa nurburgs looks quite nice, Vauxhall ruined the range it by releasing the 'limited edition' Corsa (limited to 160kish IIRC) and most models with free insurance and/or 0% finance. This makes me so glad that I have the 197 as stated above every tom dick and harry or shall we call...

    Flames

    A very good point indeed. But you could say that about any exterior mod on a car?
