I see one of these quite often, didn't realise they were a limited edition and came from the factory in LY.

I have a Scorpion cat-back on my current 200. I've had it with both cats in, resonated; horrendous on motorway Secondary cat out, no resonator; horrendous on motorway Secondary cat out, resonated; bearable on motorway I've left it as secondary cat out, with resonator in as this seemed to be...

I wear earplugs on long journeys, doesn't really make it anymore bearable having that droning in the background.

Mine is terrible. I've had Scorpion non-res with both standard cat's still in place; was far too loud. I then bought a Scorpion resonated centre pipe, didn't really change anything. Better around town but the drone on the motorway is horrendous. I've also tried both combinations with secondary...

I keep having the check ESP light come on when doing 70mph+ for a long period of time (ie. motorway driving). Normal driving it never comes on, only ever does it when im on the motorway. I've had a search around but found nothing definitive, is this a common problem? I'm thinking maybe its...

I can't really comment if I'm honest. I've not driven it on track yet, and I can't really compare it to a standard car as I have no idea what they feel like bar a quick test drive in one. The handling I've found very neutral from road driving, but due to the weather the last few days I couldn't...

If I'm honest, It was between a 197 or R26, after driving a couple of examples of both I preferred the 197. I find N/A engines more enjoyable to drive on the road, having owned a few 300-400hp turbo cars I always seem to go back to N/A stuff. Maybe I will get bored of getting overtaken on the...

Yeh, I spent last weekend driving around town and the economy was really bad! So far it's been spot on for what I've needed from it, the real test will be when I get it on track. It's road manners are much better than the Mazda was, but thats to be expected as it's a much more modern car. I'm...

Picked one up now, spent £3500 in the end on one which is ready to go for my needs. 90k miles, Full dealer history, belts done at 80k, Black 197, non-cup Recaros, Cup spoiler, Scorpion non-res catback, Centre cat delete, Ktec remap, Ramair panel filter, H&R lowering springs, DS2500 pads...

I'd put the proper stuff in. If you drive the car hard/on track a thinner oil cools the internals of the engine better than thicker stuff, plus offers better protection from cold starts. Having had various different track cars, I've always found the manufacturer specified viscosities to be...

I Have it up for £2799 on the mx5 forum i use. Quite a long spec, all original metal, no rust never been welded.

I've found a couple of cheap ones (sub 2.5k) without service history. Im not bothered about the cambelt side of things as it would be done first thing anyway. Is it worth changing the dephaser on these too? I heard the earlier 172/182 was basically a necessity to change every cambelt change?

Hi guys, I currently have an MX5 as a track car and Swift Sport as my daily, but i'm looking to condense down to only 1 car (so will be daily and track car), and after much looking around have put it down to a 197/200 or R26 Megane. Im swaying towards the Clio at the moment, purely because the...
