I've now signed up :thumb::thumb:

Thanks for the positives, a lot of work went into getting it how it is now!

Thank you I will be sure to spend some time and sign up. As requested a tease of the 205

Well back in 2007 I bought a Clio 197 and sold it to chase my belief that turbo engines are the future. Since the Clio I've had a Leon FR TFSI, a 207 GTI, E92 335i, and currently a 1800TSI Polo Gti which I've just written off at a little under 2 years old. 2 years ago I purchased and restored a...

Ive just had all my wheels re furbed and the body shop uses a Mazda wheel as an example of how bad wheels can peel and corrode. They reckon mazda are the worst for poor paint on wheels so you should be ok under their paintwork guarantee hopefully?!

If you are after straight line power, a mapped 2.0T will eat a standard R32 in pretty much any scenario, but they cant put the power on the tarmac like the 4 motion can, all be it the haldex is very biased to the front wheels and astronomic under steer on less than perfect tyres

My bug bear with them is the awful driving position and awful gear knob, but I suppose the 172/182 suffered the same

They are an awesome looking great handling car, and relatively reliable but lower capacity turbo motors and avg sized turbo diesels will certainly have more out right performance. Do you want to perform on the straights or the roundabouts?

This car is now for sale, its had loads of work done on it and stands me a few quid it has loads of MOT left and ive only done around 500 miles in it. Its totally stripped out and I mean totally!! very nippy car.... Offers please!

Powerflex didnt produce an engine mount for my 207 so when I rang them and it was discovered they didnt, they manufactured one from a pug part, and now they do! So it may be worth a phonecall to them as opposed to their stockists and see what happens. They do cause a lot of vibration though when...

I dont know mate but my 175 bhp standard 1.6T engine showed 197/200's clean pair of heels in a straight line, so its down to torque really and gearing as mine is a 5 speed box

Its going to be the tce engine that is from the nissan juke and megane tce, guy from the reno F1 stand at silverstone said. Would make sense, 180 bhp plus loads of torque.

I know! I dont think I realised what I was buying here...I may do the engine conversion/brakes etc then see what I think, then maybe mild weight stripping.... but I want my track toy!!! its taken me ages to be in a comfy enuf position to afford to do it!!!

genuine 75k backed up by history as you can see the seat bolsters are like new and its come up well from an hour or so scrubbing

ive just given it a good wash and machined it with compound, blaseted out all the crap from the joints etc and its come up stunning. The only bodywork needed is a new plastic trim on one wheel arch and the bumper on the rear re hanging!!! ill post yet again a crap nite time pic, but im torn now...

i want one!!! will it have box, ecu and loom etc? everything welcome inc shafts etc

couple of crap pics, just learnt its only a 1.4 aswell, but still 105 bhp, vts conversion def on the cards for the prices they are on ebay....

ha ha 17's!!! u sure it wont drag its belly?

Stunning!!!

Best colour, but 4 f***s sake get the 19" rims!!!!
