Hi all,
I have decided that I want to become the proud owner of an Orbisoud and have read a few posts on here and would like to know if anyone is selling one or if anyone has any advice on buying one!
I am prepared to fit it myself as I have done before and exhausts aren't that hard to...
Guys....
I recently had the discs and pads changed on No 142.
Have replaced front and back discs with genuine Renault discs (got these at a good price!) and decided on some 'uprated' pads.
Went for some from K Tec - Ultimax brake pads.
The brakes now work so much better (as you'd...
There was a fire at a garage in Seaton Sluice today and the main road through was blocked off. The traffic was diverted up a back road, as i was waiting to turn up it noticed the barriers blocking the road off with a Volvo police car parked in front of them then noticed about 20ft in front of...

Well, to start with it's amazing what you learn and quickly forget.... For about 10 minutes this morning everything to do with Suspension settings was crystal clear. Now though i can't remember anything other than the tit bit's i've spent months pondering from George, Donkey etc on here...
Hi Guys
Sorry I haven't posted in a while, thought I would just bring your attention to a stunning new car magazine, it's not a re-release apparently but shares the title with the original publication. I bought it in the airport on my way to Rome and devoured it mostly before we touched down...
thinking about some track wheels and tyres and need a number of sizes etc to give to a friend so he can contact the companies required.
If they are 15's then will they be 195/50 or can 205's fit?
Is the offset ET45?
What is the PCD?
would all the info above be the same on a 172 Cup...
The weekend started with a visit to Mark Fish to have the solid top mounts fitted that I had ordered last year but had only just got round to getting fitted.

Sachs dampers removed.
Holes drilled.

Now I have my Trophy, which I chose because it would be a fast car on track without modification, I realise, that modifying cars is just too much fun to go without, so I will be modifying the Trophy :)
Just for a bit of fun, and maybe to make the fun last, and perhaps to help others...

Got to be honest, been lurking quite a lot on here and you all seem a good bunch of lads.
Anyway, here's some info on my car, I'll list the current spec in the first post and then I'll follow up how I've changed her since buying her last August. She's for sale by the way, and I may be...

Hello All,
I am a Renault hot hatch enthusiast. I used to own a Williams and a Trophy and have just finished with an R27 Clio F1 for 3 days.
I used to bang on and on about how great these cars were. They are and I still do. But just to clear things up, the Clio F1 is simply awesome too...
When Clarkson was putting the old CTR on the track against the new one.
Wasn't too surprised that the old one trounced it, because when I had a quick look at one the other day, it looked a bit podgy. I wonder how the Trophy would compare in comparison. Would be fairly interesting to see as...
