Clever. Looks very smart without looking like you get a discount at Halfords

OE+ for the win.

Wheels look good but that's a bit to low.

[quote="Rob S"]Love this!!
Couple of silly questions
1. Is this the same 2.0 unit used in the Clio's? According to Wikipedia (when is that ever wrong

The EW10 J4S variant is a high performance version used in the 206 RC, 307 F

Interesting...who knew things were so complicated? (Apart from you Russ

)

Russ the Mazda would have been better on fuel, cheaper to insure and cheaper on tax but I think it would have bored me after about 5 minutes

I drove over to Norwich on Friday and god did I miss the extra 200bhp and boost of the Evo but the Pug is still good fun to drive.
It's going back into the dealers on Wednesday as it's still got the starting problem. It looks like it is a problem with the immobilizer. Good job it's got a good warrentee.
I can't wait to get it sorted so I can then fit the K&N and do the brakes.

I still miss boost

It's not nice overtaking things when you haven't got that extra kick. The gaps have to be so much bigger

The Pug has been in the dealers since Wednesday so they can sort the starting issues. When I spoke to them on Saturday they said it keeps losing the signal to the injectors so might need a new ECU. Hopefully they hurry up and get it sorted as I've been given this as a courtesy car

Sorry about the crap picture. I really wasn't going outside and taking a photo of it

Looks like a roller skate! Where's the other one?

When you take that back (with bald front tyres), tell them that it really needs the limo tint on the front windows to save the embarrasement for the driver
