    [Sold]Standard Twingo Gordini 133 '11 £7.5k south Manchester

    I've decided I need something a bit more comfortable so rather than mod I'm moving on. It's not the suspension especially, I'm a freak who is 6'2" with the legs of a 5'9" person and a spine that could be used in a neck transplant on a giraffe. It has all the normal Gordini stuff - it's blue...

    Clutch biting point

    Just out of interest, where's the normal biting point in an RS? I didn't notice moving from my M3 (with reasonably new clutch/flywheel) to the Twingo, and hadn't paid much attention since as it wasn't much different in my other half's Micra. What HAS made me think about it is her new Focus...

    Spanner and traction lights at startup

    I'm coming up to the first service and this is going on the warranty investigation list, but I thought I'd ask here beforehand...

    Oil dipstick level

    This is a really noddy question, but I'm dropping my Twingo off for warranty work this evening and forgot to check the manual for the oil min/max levels on the dipstick before coming to work. :D Where's it supposed to be? It's currently sat at the top of the flat/wide hatch-marked section...

    Boot catch freaking out

    On Wednesday the boot catch went mental - when I went to the car it stayed locked tight. After a few lock/unlock cycles eventually it unlocked after I opened the driver's door... but then when I shut it it'd pop open again! Lock/unlock a few more times and eventually it stayed shut. Drove to the...

    Longer 5th gearing

    Does anyone know if there are existing options for giving the 133 a taller final gear, and/or how expensive that kind of thing tends to be, or what type of shop a person goes to for it? I really like the car's peppiness in lower gears so don't really want to stick a different final drive in...

    #70

    Hey. I've had #70 in South Manchester since last February, bought new but I only registered here recently. I sold an E36 M3 Evo convertible for it - it's going to save half the purchase cost over the first 3 years and if anything is more fun, though in this weather I miss the M3, as I do on the...
