A photoshoot wasn't initially on my mind when i left the house but it was such a lovely weather and the car was half decent looking so i just thought why not go snap some nice photos. You'll forgive me for the not 100% studio quality since it's just taken with my phone in -20 frikkin degrees...
I was at this event last weekend. It's an exhibition event for all kinds of "showtrucks" and a lot of side events taking place at the same time. Annual event here that's been held for many years.
This year's event was a 10 year anniversary with around 200 trucks participating and special guest...
Sweet baby Jesus in heaven this car's engine is just pure sex!
Easily the best sounding car in the whole world! :crazy:

The THP200 is said to have the overboost function going momentarily from 255 Nm to 275 Nm right.
When does this kick in exactly? Anyone have specifics?
On Wikipedia it says: An overboost function is available which temporarily increases torque to 192 lb-ft (260 N·m) between 1700 rpm and 4500...

Are they any good? My brother was looking at one to buy this coming fall. 2010-ish modelyear with a 2.0L diesel.
It is essentially an Astra with a fairly decent engine from what i can tell. But how about the rest of it? Know anyone who has one or can recommend them? I'm a bit skeptical myself...
Noticed this just today when topping up the washer fluid. Was a constant pouring for a good half hour and then dripping in a fast pace.
It's weird that it's on this side of the car since the washer refiller and retainer is on the other side of the engine bay! :? I tried checking around and it...
New 108 being launched eventually... Looks much nicer than the 107 ;) Hoping for a GTi or an R :lol:

While waiting for the service to be done on my RCZ last monday i went over to the BMW dealership next door and sort of pretended to be interested in a car :D Asked if they had any test driving vehicles so the salesman hooked me up with a neat 328i that was standing outside. Mainly just to pass...
About to have the RCZ in for some general service to a Peugeot service center and i was wondering what was necessary to do.
31.000 miles, 2011 model, THP200....
- Oil
- Oil filter
- Air filter necessary??
- Spark plugs necessary??
- Cabin filter necessary?? I'm assuming there is one...
As you might have seen, or to those who haven't:

That's too bad really :( The guy was a true "petrolhead".
Anyone know the exact fluid to top up with?
Mine seems to be low. Hadn't noticed it before but today the steering wheel started twitching or moving uneven when turning so i checked the level and from what i can see, only about half of the container is full.
So hopefully filling up should...
The water scrapers.... Are they really bad or just a little bad? Or are they okay to use?
I've got one and i do tend to use it almost after every wash. Try to make sure it's clean tho.
New, probably incoming car..... It's still just a concept tho :D Looks great! Carbon fibre doors, fenders, body sides(?) and hood! 270 bhp engine and torsen diff from the RCZ R! ;)

Do i just pull it until it slams the roof?
It's got a little play in it so you can move it up and down 1mm and it's driving me crazy :lol: Need to super-glue it!
Apparently the new trend..... Dear god.... The day i would do that to my car..... :cry:
