It sure is. Too low though, the body kit hits every speedbump!
Yup, spare wheel is gone!
That's reassuring to hear. She passed her first MOT since 2012 just the other day - second time round. C ... |

Update - No pull at speeds upto 30mph. I changed both wishbones, track rod ends and drop links - full kit from fleabay. I expect you just need a new wishbone - the bolts can be a bit of a pig, but it' ... |

I need to confirm my issue with this actually went away after changing the wishbones. I've been jumping from car to car too often and can't remember if it did or not now! My 206 is a 1.6 16v CC, I'll ... |

My dad has done over 700 mile round trips a few times in the 1.4 8v SW , and I've driven it nearly non-stop on country roads for 6 hours or more at a time. Certainly it rarely misses a beat - I hope t ... |

Smacking them out does seem to be the only way - I drowned the ones on the CC with release spray, pretty sure I then took a screwdriver to them... They still worked!
Hopefully sooner rather than l ... |

Hissing at the intake sounds uh.. normal for a 1.4, though mines is a 8v!
