Looks like it was being chased by the police! Do you know anything about the car Ed? It doesn't look like it's running Sachs, and has a roll cage..

Surely it needs a bigger wing...? :ROFLMAO: Looks in great condition.

Patrick, you've hit the nail on the head. Based on the evidence presented thus far, this sounds like a criminal act - theft.

looking sharp!

I think we have crossed wires? Ethan - you wanted front Sachs dampers? If so, you can't buy them new anymore. When you could they were circa £1500 ea.

Hi Ethan - I'm sure if you keep asking on here and elsewhere (Facebook Clio Trophy) you'll get a paired perhaps relatively soon. I know it's often considered sacrilegious putting anything but Sachs on a Trophy, but there are aftermarket dampers that may be worth a look. Some would say these...

Hi Pete - I think the number plate says it all :ROFLMAO: . It's a curious car, the rear is almost a mirror of the front. Curiously ugly? How about my configuration? I won't mention wheel colour ;) https://porsche-code.com/PTQKCCX1

Hi Pete Wow, the new Targa. Handsome machine, perhaps even handsome(r) with silver wheels? I watched Tim Rodie's review, link below. He rather liked it :) I think the A110 is my favourite modern car. I had a weekend test drive in a GT just over a year ago. Wasn't perfect, nothing is...

Hi Pete - is that Targa yours? I love an A110, and that Sanguine Orange is veeerrrry nice!

Thanks Ed. Just looking online now, the jump from 1.6 to 1.8 saw marginal increases - 110 at 5600 to 112 PS at 6100 137 at 3200 to 150Nm at 5000 I recon this change has parallels with the Mk2 when it went from 8v to 16v? More power but higher up the rev range...

I thought these were 1.8?

I agree Nick, the red bumper trim would make it look more 'sporting'. It does appear to be in very good condition. I'm not so keen on the colour, I prefer a brighter hue like red or Miami blue.

strange place to park it?!

Geez - what a noise! From inside it doesn't look like it's going 'that' fast? Looks a handful too.

That Golf Rallye is still alive. Has road tax but mot just expired.... mileage last MOT 246k km. I replaced the 16v with a Corrado VR6. Felt a proper step-up. Amazing burbly engine.

The one I owned (around 1997) was identical to this. Photo below... even back in the day, it never felt that quick, looked nice though.

Francis will be along shortly.... !

Nice video some might enjoy. Makes me really, really want to drive/own a Williams.

I've just watched this, and agree - epic, especially towards the end!

Hi Ed - that looks like a brand new PMS? Is this your 'back up'? I think my preference would be the 3" straight brushed finish. I believe Frayz went for this on this orange 182? Mark

Not that I'm obsessing about exhausts. (oh really) but is that a PMS I spy?

Just to follow-up on the Renault exhaust. Mick was telling me he has a friend who fairly recently bought a new 182 system from Renault (it was £2k+) and was blowing out of the rear box from the start. Renault initially tried to say it wasn't covered by their warranty, but finally replaced it...

According to ChatGPT.... The Vehicle Inspection Record sticker found on the inside of the bonnet of a Renault Clio 182 serves several purposes, primarily related to maintenance tracking and quality control. Here's a breakdown of its purpose: ✅ 1. Factory Quality Control When the Clio 182 was...

I bet @photo_ed has 3-4 squirrelled away under his bed. Ed, am I right?

how do they feel if you dropped them to 28/26 on the road?

'Made in Japan' ! It that because it's made by Nissan?

Wow Ed - I assumed you/your partner were a florist but a flower farm... proper cool ! This thread is coming a bit 'show and tell'.... :)

It's all coming out now.... anyone else want to 'confess' ? I'm liking Andy's flower display.... I think we need a new topic?

OMG Andy - that's a big one you have there!!! Do you need to 'strap' on that blower :ROFLMAO:

Many thanks Andy. I wonder how many people use an Air Blower to 'dry' their cars? Starting from about £75 they are more expensive, but perhaps not in the longterm? I bet @NickReilly063 has one? :unsure: :LOL:
