I've got a standard 197 alloy as a spare - I want to check/top up the pressure of it as I am going on a long road trip. What pressure should it be whilst off the car? Due to the weight of the car normally I would presume it to be different to normal?

I'd just parked up and spotted you driving past. Black 197 but it looked like you had some of those roof fins you see on Evos? Never seen a mod like that before!

You lot are a smart bunch based on your car choice. Have any of you ever used mobiles.co.uk? They have some amazing deals but very mixed reviews. Just wandering if it is worth running the gauntlet with them!?

I know, another tyre thread but I'd like some up to date opinions. I have a full set of AD08R but due to moving house a track day is unlikely to happen this year. As I have now nearly worn out the fronts is there a need for a tyre like this just for fast road? There is still plenty on the back...

So I kind of solved my own problem...I think. Hit some 45 minute traffic jam this morning on the way to work. Ambient temp was about 12C and the car began to warn of over heating when reaching the 4th line. Bit odd. Usually it sits bang in the middle of 2 and 3 but going up to 3 when in...

I haven't quite figured out the best way to go about this. So I usually wear my key in my wetsuit when surfing. How do you go about this with keyless entry?! I just want to wear the key part and not the whole fob but obviously still lock the car. Is it as simple as taking the physical key out...

Hey everyone, I have been on this forum for a while after previously owning a GW 197 Cup. But this was unfortunately written off for me by a lorry! I've since been meaning to create this thread on my GW FF 200. Anyway, I'm more about photos than chat so I'll let them tell the story. I started...

Went for a drive out today with the Auto Adrenaline club. 24 cars including a Lamborghini and McLaren! Couple of photos and GoPro footage to follow.

Fitted my new KTR Induction kit at the weekend and couldn't quite believe the sound it made. I've had induction kits on all my cars but I've never heard such a roar over 5k. I do love it but it seems to drone out the Akra at the top end...which I'm not sure if I am happy about? Anyone else who...

So my FF 200 came with a tool kit but no jack, I thought this to be odd but then found that due the cup chassis being too stiff, Renault don't recommend one as both wheels would lift - hence it not being there (but they left everything else in the kit just to confuse you!). Anyway - I got a...

So annoyed. Someone at work hit my car today and left this behind... Went to a body shop on the way home and they said they don't think this could be done by paintless removal. Are they right? They said that it is a fill and respray so £275+VAT :@ sounds a lot?

Spotted on M32 at about 7.15 this morning. 59 plate with anthracite pack!

Might be a stupid question but do you know the difference between the standard evolution system and an 'open valve' evolution system? Just came across this on the Akrapovic website... https://www.akrapovic.com/#!/car/product/hot%20hatch/798/sound?brandId=16 The open valve system obviously...

Just wandering if anyone has any recommendations for a garage in Bristol or surrounding areas. Happy to travel for good work?

Recently had my 3rd and 4th synchros replaced under warranty. However the reversing lights now don't come on, but I found it why that was, so that is being sorted. But part of that (or maybe not?) is now when I press the brake to start the car and it is definitely in neutral, it comes up with...

Let you come pass me in Clifton yesterday. I was in my GW 200!

Parked up on Aberdeen road just off Whiteladies road. I drive past you in my GW 200 most evenings after work!

Hey, so there is now one less 197 cup on the road. I got taken out by a lorry on a roundabout who was in the wrong lane. Car ended up on top of a crash barrier. Will get some pictures up soon. The car has been declared a cat c write off. But I need some help on the valuation. I still don't...

Best £40 you can spend imo... http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mPFk0kNqFbw&feature=youtu.be

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Nz4aVi7KeKU Possibly warped disc is my thought? Plenty on pads and no lip on discs. Any ideas would be great? Wheel spins freely when jacked up but you can hear and feel a point of extra resistance when hand spinning the wheel. Thanks!
