I do lol!
Picking up a laguna DCI on saturday though
Got to love cheap French diesels, I've got a 306 for the commute to work.
Unfortunately I didn't manage to get any video's this weekend I just haven't been able to find a suitable place to open the taps up safely whilst having someone at the roadside filming it.
I did however (despite the hosepipe ban) manage to give the car a good clean.
I only use the car at weekends now and I'm glad as my wallet would be taking a serious bashing with the fuel economy but I suppose you don't build a car like this for the fuel economy. Managed to get it up to 22MPG on my run to lakeside the other day. <20 for around town driving.
Going to buy myself some shares in Shell this afternoon

I love how it still looks relatively understated yet has enough power to smoke many a car...
missing centre cap.
looks bloody clean though are them aero wipers an added extra or do they come with lcrs?

You spotted it, yet I've lost one somehow. Need another. Not sure about the wipers. The car had them when I bought it

That would be great mate, I don't think mine are standard though, they have got the R badge on them...??? Not sure what you have got?
SQS Gears
Been having a look at SQS gearsets recently, nothing serious yet but just wanted to see what the options are should I ever spit a gear, break the box, or go 4WD.
Been looking at the Long Ratio and the Boost Ratio kits they do. Here are a few stats. All set at 7800 RPM
Long Ratio
Boost Ratio
Made me smile a bit 330Kph in 6th gear at 7800RPM, which in church of england is 206.68 Mph. Who would like to be in a leon at those speeds?
