Re: +80.000 miles with the RCZ R (my story) To RCZ-R, I really enjoy your posts here on the forum. I love driving fast but I tend to drive on the same roads on my daily commute. I drive on a British "A" road, the A68 in County Durham, on a 20½ mile drive to work. The maximum speed limit is 60...

Hi Neil, I'd love to know where you got this photo from, I've never seen it before, it's gorgeous! Cheers, Ian :beer:

I find this question nigh on impossible to answer. If I could afford my dream car then I could afford anything and I'd build up a collection or short term, hire them. For cheap sheer driving pleasure and fun I'd buy a Nissan GT-R. For looks AND driving pleasure it would be a very shiny red...

Lovely doggy, buy him/her some steel toecap boots! Those tiny tiny feet are so vulnerable to clodhoppers like mine :cry: I have a Border Terrier and I bought a seat protector to stop his claws scratching the leather. I recommend it, 5/5! £22.50 ... http://amzn.eu/dQQWdBm

Thanks Iain and DKZ, I thought it would be because of the xxZ nnnn format. To quote the DVLA... "These registrations are dateless and can be assigned to any appropriate vehicle registered within mainland Great Britain and Northern Ireland." But DKZ, yours proves me wrong. It must just be...

Hi Caledonianrcz, I think the wiring/electronics guru Plecodoras would be worth asking. He swaps bumpers and whole electronic gizmos before breakfast. Ian

I live nowhere near London and am as enthusiastic about driving there as I am in driving to Aleppo in Syria. However, I was curious when I saw a website for TFL (Transport for London) to check if your vehicle is subject to the new £10 extra charge per day...

A consequence of overfilling the oil ... I bought a brand new 205 GTi 1.6 in 1986. At that time there was a product called Slick 50 which apparently still exists! It was something like a teflon coat for the engine, to keep it super lubricated and to improve performance. You were supposed to...

I forgot to inform my insurance company :eusa-whistle: I shopped around for insurance prices before buying. Rather bizarrely, AVIVA quoted less for the 200 than the 156. It might have been because of some unusual risks unique to me or maybe a slight difference in age between the cars?

Hello and welcome Hector. She's a lovely looking car and I'm envious of the vision pack! I remember Hector's House .. showing my age :eusa-shhh: Mine's a 156 and I had her remapped. There's more detail in this post of mine: viewtopic.php?f=6&t=10956&p=130254&hilit=+remap#p129958

Re: RCZ and RCZ R Logo Car Mats I bought the Red and Black mats from Lew, I'm very pleased with them :thumbup:

Thanks for the replies chaps, Howard, my charger is the CTEK MXS 3.6 It looks like the version number might be related to the amperage of the charger. I'm not certain when I bought mine but it was probably about 2011. It would appear that the latest iteration is an MXS 7.0 There is also an MXS...

I used my CTEK battery charger. The full cycle takes 17 hours. Lo and behold, the dreaded economy mode has dramatically improved. Yesterday morning I was sitting in my car with the ignition off and listening to the radio. It was on for twenty minutes without a problem before I switched it off...

Thank you everybody for your help, especially Chris. :thumbup:

Regarding spam, The forum has ten thousand and forty four members. There are probably five thousand who died in fun accidents. Three thousand who had seizures from excitement and and are dribbling wrecks. Fifteen hundred have forgotten their passwords because their brains have been overcrowded...

Re: NOT SPAM - Dashcam advice please Iain, Thanks, that's very useful so far. Don't forget I'm an idiot though! Which fuse socket would you plug the piggyback fuseholder into? The rear lighter socket, I have the same question. Presumably something that is on the battery side of the circuit? I...

Hi Everybody, I want to have a dashcam for the front of my car, maybe rear too. I'm not going to spend a fortune on the camera(s), maybe £100 ish, each. I don't really need advice on the camera itself as there are loads of places to find that info. There are somewhat less places to find an...

What are the arches made of? It looks to me like plastic wrapped aluminium. Mine are originals, well as far as I know. I almost feel like peeling the "film" off but is it actually a coat at all? Thanks.

This is Rozie's rear end. Yes, her bum does look big in this. PS those are compression artefacts on her left cheek, it's not the body or paintwork!

Hi Jon, I bought my RCZ plate from regtransfers in August. I received an email from them on 20/10/17 regarding your plate, showing a current price and that the auction would end on 21/10/2017 at 08:00. There was a short message of "If you would like to bid on this registration please click...
