    Who Watched Topgear

    I'm doing a trackday on the 19th of Feb. Apparantly there's a guy coming in his brand new GT3RS. Really looking forward to seeing it. There's a guy on pistonheads who's going down in a 650bhp GTR Black Series too :) Loved the Atom, Yeti bit went on way too long and was pretty pointless, 911 bit...

    Xbox or Playstation

    I play games on my 360, watch films on the PS3 and the Wii collects dust. I can't use the PS3's controllers as I have man sized hands :)

    World Series by Renault - Silverstone - August 20th & 21st

    I'll be staying at (taking over) the Hamilton Fields Campsite again Fri & Sat with all the MS and CS boys as per last year. Was a good laugh last year, lots of beer flowing and music playing into the wee hours on both nights. Was better than the event itself! Was a couple of RS Twingos that...

    Next pay day :)

    Matt at TDF looked in Penn's engine bay on a RR day and said he didn't think it would be too hard to fit a 182 engine into a Twingo as it's essentially the same car - Now that would be fun :)

    Mates 320+bhp corsa VXR

    Won't help the torque steer. The Focus RS has torque steer even with it's RevoKnuckle (Perfohub rip off) system

    Mates 320+bhp corsa VXR

    Torque steer with a large side helping of understeer anyone? Doe's he have a LSD fitted? My 250 struggles to put down 300bhp so how a Corsa is supposed to handle 320/400 through it's front wheels is anyones guess. They were never renouned for their handling capabilities standard! lol It's...

    Mates 320+bhp corsa VXR

    320bhp in a Corsa? Bet it wouldn't make that on a Dyno Dynamics RR. Bet it handles like a shopping trolley and trys to steer itself into a ditch if you threaten to push the throttle! Can't imagine it being a good car to drive IMO My mates got a 300bhp Focus ST but won't take it near a track...

    Southend/lakeside 22nd Jan

    I'll probably be going down in the Meg. It's my girlfriend's sisters wedding on the Sunday so she'll probably be using the Twingo. I'll ask...

    Shiny Exhaust??

    Thanks for the responses guys. It's only 4 months old so shouldn't be too bad. I'll give the autosol a go after seeing Matt's results!! Nice work :)

    Next pay day :)

    Yep, definatly not on a Gordini. Doesn't it stand out enough as it is?

    Shiny Exhaust??

    What's the best thing you've found to keep the exhaust shiny? Just noticed today how dull it's become :(

    How much is your RS to insure ???

    It's packaged as a product, but really it's a service. The only reason is so they have more money sitting in their banks, more of the time to make them more money.

    How much is your RS to insure ???

    It's not like buying a whole car on HP and paying interest on what you've already got. Cover is spread out across the year. £600 a year to insure - £50 a month upfront sounds fair. It's like hiring a car for a year and being made to take out an interest bearing loan to pay for the full year up...

    How much is your RS to insure ???

    I'm with Alex. If you choose to pay your council tax monthly it doesn't cost any more. I think month by month is how it should be standard. Why should we be forced to either hand over the full year at the start, or effectivley borrow the money?

    How much is your RS to insure ???

    I'm 31 with 1 years no claims and my girlfriend is 25 with 5 years. On Admiral multicar, it cost me just over £300 to insure the 250 and just under £200 for the girlfriend on the 133. Both insured to drive both cars though. There's gotta be some perks to getting old and living in Norfolk ;)

    Hello folks!! New East Anglian Member

    Hey there. Just signed up and thought I better say hello! :D My girlfriend and I bought a 133 together back in September. Mirage Grey (the best colour ;) ), Cup Chassis, panoramic sunroof, climate control and uprated stereo. The other half drives it most of the time (to and from work) but I...
