Hi Ed - following your email above, I've just spoken with Jane at BG who once again confirmed they have EVERY part (including shafts) except the damper body. If you doubt me, feel free to call her. Mark

Hi Ed - I spoke with BG very recently and they confirmed they have all parts except the damper body - the bit that rusts.

Full respray, of the entire car?!

There's a red theme going on here, even the sliders are red?! I like the Clio. Your Rallye's last MOT was 2018 with 168k miles, I guess somebody loved it.

Sounds promising. I hope they do a top job. I'd be interested to hear how they do. Whereabouts in the UK are you?

I'd be nervous having tyres fitted by ATS, or any other well known outfit. Whilst fitting/balancing tyres on paper seems a very simple act, the majority of fitters do it with little care and attention. Even so called local/regional 'performance' places are mediocre at best. I'm yet to find a...

2CV is surely a massive oversight? :LOL:

Wow - what a peach (or orange)! Whilst I like the look of the 'S' if I was to get one I think I would be looking at the slightly softer base model. I do like the R though....

Hi Ed - I congratulate you for having such a busy year with the T, so many adventures wonderfully captured by your lens and pen. 👏

Hi Patrick - not sure what it's for but is it dated 2006 (06) ? If so, might it be from another car?

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.

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?
