Uniroyal rainsport 2 gets my vote. Great in the dry and amazing in the wet.

When I had a 1.9 pd150, I use to get 400-450 miles to a tank. That was with a for bit of stop start traffic as I work in London. I didn't hang about either. I was very happy with that.

Before I started Bit of elbow grease So far It's metallic pearl paint. 4 coats of black base, 6 coats of pearl finished with 3 coats of clear lacquer. Picture is crap, but they really do sparkle. None of it is heat resistant so will see how the year goes.

Turbo timers... argh!!! Drive calmly of the last mile of your journey and let the engine run for 10seconds when you stop. You probably don't even realise that you sit there for a bit getting your bits together anyway before you get out the car. Each to their own etc

When you say remap above, I think you're saying a £250+ performance remap which includes mapping the egr light out. I had the egr delete on my Leon before I sold it, jabba mapped the light out at the same time as putting a generic map on. They must be able to map the light out regardless of the...

You don't need a full on remap to map out the light for egr. The eml light will function as normal, but overlook the egr.

when was the last time the fuel filter was replaced? I had similar problems, turned out to be that!

I've always had a soft spot for the accord type r. Such a shame the Euro R didn't come here with the new shape. Loving your car!

I'm sooo jealous! I wanted one as a second car / run about but had to settle for a Clio as family wanted to use it also. I wanted this:

Could be any of them... Process of elimination really.. First thing I'd checked would be to make sure the tyre pressure is all correct. Have a quick visual inspection of the tyres also... Make sure the weights are all there too After that if it's still there you'd have to visit a garage...

my tip: drive it like you stole it every now and then, keeps soot away from the turbo... (in other words, don't be afraid to venture towards 4k rpm)

I'm not a fan of vauxhalls, buy I love the oem look. Almost sleeper like

Mine stopped working last year due to wind-chill...

You sure it's from the exhaust? I had a bad vibration which was caused by resonance in the intercooler piping. Some rubber grommets between the h&s bolts sorted it. If the noise happens on rev (while car is at a stop, mine happened between 2 and 3k), get a mate to touch/hold parts of the...

May I persist that you put the wife up for sale?

There's a serious lack of small rwd cars.. If only the early civics were rwd too... I should be picking up the new family cruiser this Sunday (Toyota aristo) and once the Leon goes I'll try and find a miata for about £1200 or less! Have you got a video of the car now? I'd love to hear it with a...

Nice.. I wondered who put a pair of knickers on my mirror!! Do you want them back? :lol:

What time you in at H&S? I'll be there at 8am, as one of the bolts has come off and has caused an annoying rattle. I tried to fix it myself, jacked up the car, got underneath but it's a car lift job. I've not had the issue of boost pipes coming off (although mine isn't as powerful as yours)

I'm seriously thinking of a MK1 as a get to work car.. You're one has just made me want one more!

Maybe you're the wrong type of Indian? :D or maybe no one loves you? (LOL kidding) Either way the guy from goodness gracious me said it best: Indian!
