Mine needed filing to prevent binding, I believe this is quite common for DS and Pagids

I got mine from Demon Tweeks a few yrs ago. Most places will price match.

storker?

It was mentioned a few weeks back that the 195 conti tyres as fitted to the 172 have a square footprint and is almost identical in actual width to a 205 profile.

Wow, so cheap compared to you know who! Did you need new parts or was it just a service?

Marginal gaine in power (if any) but improved (louder) noise

That's quite a trip! How far door-to-door?

Nice photo, and yes it was a long time ago! A question for some of the older folk, I wonder how many have also owned a R5GTT? I was the 2nd owner of G75WVU, a mint 'raider' in my youth. I believe it's still alive.

Has anyone used them? Called them today and they were incredibly helpful. Keen prices too.

Test drive them.

Yes. 182 Cup dampers £47/corner.

looks mint!

FYI Monster buy the R1 dampers direct from Dieppe, whilst dealers buy from Renault UK. No dealer can match Monster's price.

Did you ever get to the bottom of this?

PS3's in W rating have stiffer side walls. or try - Yoks AD08s

Welcome!

If a head-to-head test was conducted to assess Cup, Sachs and say H&R Coilover dampers, I wonder if we are able to say what the results would be on the road and track? I like the idea of the Cup dampers because they are so cheap (circa £100/pair) and must be pretty good. I like the Sachs...

Hi Dave - I knew you were impressed, just wondered if that is still the case. Presume so.

Dave - how are you finding the H&R coilovers?

Ktec coilovers seem remarkably inexpensive at around £300? How does it handle? Any other mods lurking?

Welcome! What suspension do you have as it's incredibly low? Looks mean BTW!

These posts make for interesting reading - technical that even the non-technical like me can understand.

Spotted yesterday about 6pm. Reg I think was LY05.... looked pretty tidy as I passed.

Felix - have you gone ahead and replaced the Sach with Cup dampers?

It's incredible to think that the 182 Cup dampers (weighing in at ~£100/pair) are about x10 times the price of Sach dampers. I mean, they are not x10 better. The Cup dampers do seem exceptionally good value.

Your golf looks awesome. What engine is that? Not keen on the wheels
