The best laid plans etc ...... This almost happened last year when I expected to return to live in Switzerland, but it didn’t work out then. Now with the situation here at work not going in the right direction I have to face facts and sell.

Hi guys,
I placed an order for a set of front Pagid Blues at Yozzasport but curiously they don't take a payment, just send you an email saying "we'll be in touch". Have sent an email requesting if they're in stock and haven't heard anything. Just realised there's no phone number on the website...
Hi, it's about time the T had new discs and pads all round, has anyone had any good/bad experiences with the mintex oe discs and pads or shall I get them from renault? Not really after any upgrade, I've got carbone Lorraine pads with standard discs on my 205 and it's enough to wind me under...
I have been looking through posts and at few photos of calipers that have been painted on here. I think it finishes the car off perfectly but i notice quite a lot of people reckon they would be better left standard.
Just like to know what peoples veiws were on doing it.
Cheers Elliott.

Hi, just when you think they are rare 2 turn up! Common as muck in these parts :D Extra points if you can guess where these were taken (none for the owners :lol: )

k-tec matt carbon fibre front splitter. never been fitted, still in packaging, as new.

just thought i would say hi ive put a deposit down on 428 from lookers should be collecting it on the 29th of this month as there doing the timing and aux belt before i pick it up :D
........well after many weeks (or months :? ) I have finally got the parts on the cheap to improve the Trophy somewhat.
Included in the morning is fitting of a full Janspeed system along with similar Mark Fish cat mod (have a metal fabricators 2 mins from my house) followed next week by a 60k...
Hi all,
Can't quite believe i am doing this, but 007 and i will very very sadly have to part company. Reason being that the Mrs and i are saving for a new house, she has sold her Mini and is saving like mad and truth be told me keeping a 2.0 hot hatch isn't going down all that well. I also have...
Fitted the top mounts, camber bolts and strut brace today - geo check tomorrow, had a drive feels pretty good but who can tell on the road, track day on the 24th so that will be a good test. Thinking that the shocks might need a refurb now though, as one had a faint sign of oil mist on the base...
After what seems like a relatively short spell with the Trophy (13 months), I have decided to let her go to a new home. Reason for selling is that I now also have a 205 gti-6, so I need something a bit bigger and a bit more refined as there is no need to have 2 cars of similar performance and...
After much consideration about what I could do with the Trophy, I have decided to sell. The trophy has been great and nothing has gone wrong since I've brought it off 'johnnytheboy' off here (he's looked after it wonderfully during his ownership)

Hi.
After having my dampers done by ben at BG last month, today i noticed that there is a 5mm gap between the rubber seal/absorber? and the turret that the strut is bolted to. Pop the bonnet and the bolts are there on the top of your suspension system (not mechanically minded so bear with me!)...
Took off the AV today and took some pics of the brake update (new discs, goodridge and pads - the front carbon lorraines are unreal!!). Camber bolts next, and I'm going to change the plugs I think. It's still chilly by the way..... :D

I've just booked my car in for its 36k at Angelworks in St Neots. It's being done next month.
I've also ordered some bits and bobs to be fitted at the same time - the standard brake upgrade package of Brembo HCs, DS2500s and braided lines. Got that lot for £250 delivered from K-Tec...

Hi all,
I currently drive a DC5 which I'll shortly be selling. One of my reasons for selling is the suspension which, though wonderful on smooth roads, is an absolute nightmare on my daily commute due to the quality of the roads near me. After 18months of ownership I'm ready to move on.
I...
after spending £100 last year on better gear, moving to meguirs, i've now discovered the internet's detailing world and spent another £100 on more clobber that you can't buy in Halfords! Bad on my finances but the T will benefit tremendously!

Hi everyone, just bought a T last week and am getting to know it a bit (and modding it too); have most info I need thanks to the forum but have a silly question - what is the little blob beneath the passenger side door mirror ? - looks like some sort of sensor but I'm not sure....
So far I've...
