    Snow Chains/Socks

    ...seems there is a coding system for snow covered roads in Europe...'round Blue B26' sign for instance....I am driving to Morzine. My freinds who are going with us went last year but says he didn't have to fit his snow chains as he didn't drive once there. I intend to do the same...any way, is...

    Snow Chains/Socks

    Those look the business but don't want to spend 400 euros!! How come chains won't fit on a Clio? I have a Meg250 with 18" wheels.Am I going to have the same trouble? Been looking at snowsocks which just rap over the tyre.

    ...read a short article about the new RS Clio in Autocar last night....the new Clio is quite good going by the photo's even though it has four doors...I think Renault might just have the edge. RS gear box sounds interesting but there seems to be some sort of exhaust note changing function which...

    ...any one know of a good place to have a new head unit installed into our Golf IV. Already got a decent Sony Head Unit(that I had managed to instal into our previous Golf III)....., but the golf is a fairly basic car with the 'Gamma' System so would need to get some decent speakers put into the...

    Abarth Punto Evo

    ...they look a bit lame to me...parked near one yesterday....breaks don't look upto much and I doubt the driving experience will be as good as the Clio even with up front torque....I you want turbo characteristics I would look at a Meg 225/250.....

    Stolen megane RS 250

    ...that's a terrible thing to happen, but as you say its just a car and you and your girlfriend are ok.....car is identical to mine (appart from the sticker)....this trend of taking RS cars is worrying.

Trophy is still my favourite as it's handling, looks and rarity was (and is as I see it about from time to time) amazing....such a drivable car...I could put into corners at speeds I would not dream of doing in the Meg!!
