liking it, think it needs a bit more smoothing for the full euro look. The exhaust is pretty sweet!

There is nothing Euro about this car what so ever. Youve lowered it yes, but lowering a car isnt 'Euro'

Very optimistic with the bhp figures aswell.

There's nothing 'Euro' about it, the bhp figure is optimistic to say the least, and I've no doubt in my mind that it's not as quick as a Saxo VTS, the Saxo is lighter and has more power!

Rear lights look chavvy, as does the sticker on the bottom of the boot lid, and I can't really understand why you haven't taken the dealer sticker out of the back window Confused

.

Sorry mate not a fan at all.

Also why are you doing a engine conversion on a 'euro' car.

The whole point fo them is to drive slow and show them off, you dont need a big engine

Yeah but when you are like an inch off the floor, you can't drive fast anywhere, so I don't see the point in paying the money for an engine conversion. He should spend it on actually making it look euro first

No offence intended.
Haven't seen your car yet, I'll keep an eye out when I'm next about.
Good luck with the project, but as others have said you should make it look euro and keep the engine standard 1.4
No need to go fast that low.

Just because your going euro don't mean you can't have a big engine some boy from my area has a 306 a proper euro car with a fat 2 litre engine conversion fast as fcuk and that's low as cab be. Not a big fan of the colour scheme but you car has the potential euro is about smooth and subtle really the exhaust I would say is the opposite to euro if I were you I would stop going for the euro look as it would cost too much to do with the engine conversion and just focus on either having a rapid car or maxing put the euro look but if you've got the funds then you might aswell buy a 180 or do both

105 bhp is easily achievable in a 1.4 16v mines running at 99.1bhp (tested ar rs tuning) with only a cone air filter (you knwo the type everyone slates because of heat soak etc?) and a 4" backbox which apparently reduce back pressue so is ment to decrease power or something

but my point is that if that what my car is pushing out with those 2 mods then i think 105 can easily be acheived with manifold and decat i dont know about the 115 maybe with a remap? and a few other bits

This is probably true. Ape knows a thing or 2 about the 1.4 16v engine, If you were seriously interested in pushing the power up a little further I'm sure he'd be willing to help.

If you don't want harsh comments then don't talk sh*t is my opinion Laughing

what are u all getting so moody about hes just put some pictures up of his car and wrote what he thought about it maybe he got it wrong, so what get over it, there's really no need for all these nasty comments just trying to make him feel bad, this is meant to be a friendly site if you cant at least be nice maybe you shouldnt comment at all.

f**k a fek people gt out of the bed on the wrong side! Leave the guy along lol, i do agree you need to do a few more mods too look realy euro tho. The slammage is good along with the pressed plates you have if my eyes dont decive me....

I think a nice set of deep dish wheels with some stretched rubber would go down a treat.
One cheap mod I would recomend is to de-wiper the back at only the price of a 22mm grommit.

As for everyone taking the p**s out of the nurburg ring sticker, he hasnt even said thats hes not gone, that im aware of anyway. So f**k up lol Very Happy

Well let me argue from the other side....

I can't understand the whole argument about a petty sticker. It's a sticker. Nothing more, nothing less.

You haven't 'earned' it. Anyone can go there. Anyone can pay. Anyone can then get a sticker. Fair enough you have pride. For driving around a track though? Confused

Come off it, you've hardly done something that nobody else can do...

Lay off the guy. New site and everything, but you've all collectively probably just scared the guy off.

Well done.

Easy Ross, for all we know the guy has little knowledge of what is Euro, and thought his car was. He's not talking crap about his car really is he, he just thought it was Euro. He can say he beat a VTS, but we all know it may not have been a VTS, or the guy may have been lieing. If the latter, then fine, leave it. No need to try and belittle the guy is there? Im not having a go, but he's decided to show us his car and he's been shot down! He's new for Christ's sake as well!

My LCR has been round the 'Ring a few times with the previous owner, and it's been around Europe, makes no difference really. As long as there is evidence of maintenance etc then what's the problem?

Let's agree to disagree then, I fully well believe I have "earned" the right to display it, and people often ask I have really been, often expecting me to reply that I haven't been. It's like going to Mecca for petrolheads!

I can't see why it would put you off really. After all some cars are made to be driven hard, and the only place you can get the potential out of some cars is on track.

Like Ape said, if it shows signs of been well looked after then there is no problem. Signs of neglect and been ragged to an inch of it's life without proper maintenance would put me off, but if buying from a real enthusiast will probably land you a better car, whether its been on track or not.

OK, if it's a Porsche, Lambo, Ferrari, etc - Fine.

But a 206? It would put me off... Unless it had some modifications that would protect it from being driven 'hard', as you say.

i do think alan has a point as when these exotic cars when in the design rooms/enginneering room wt ever that have the engine built around knowing they may be thrashed around time to time. but when the french engineers are developing there 206 then had a city car comutting car in mind not one to be wipped around a track. dont think im saying they shouldn't i would do a track day or two if i had the opertunity but i dont know where to start or prep or like alan said protection.

Didn't want to join in on the whole going off topic thing but you guys are arguing about a car going around the Nurbourg being a potential death trap / ragged motor. I would like to think if someone cares after their car enough and if I use Jamie as an example, seems to know what he's doing with the car as it's his pride and joy he wouldn't rag it majorly and he's done it up for speed by the looks of it. Surely you should be more worried about some of the cars on here with their big bore exhausts, chav lights etc that give me a much bigger impression of being ragged - at the end of the day their 1 litre jobbies are pushed to go as fast as possible.

I'm gonna wait till I've got a pretty decent job and then get a nice car and go in that until that time why am I not entitled to have a sticker that claims nothing, but looks nice and adds a little volume to my bare car

It's not just the 'ring that has track stickers. Most race tracks have them and they were a sign of what track days you had done, and was a way to show your track day expertise (similar to WWI aircraft carrying symbols of what aircraft they have shot down). Most tracks don't allow you to buy them without racing the circuit either.

The recent popularity of the 'ring has made it fashionable to wear the track sticker on your car, and those that haven't been and still wear them make a mockery of a true car enthusiast tradition of displaying track symbols, which goes back to before stickers when the map was painted onto cars.

I suppose they'll go out of fashion eventually and everyone will strip them off. Apart from the true enthusiast of course.

and people who drive past you will do exactly the same. at the end of the day its only a sticker. it can removed as easily as it was applied.

tbh jamie i think the fact that you believe you "earnt" the sticker is a joke in itself. did they award you it for successfully completing the circuit? or did you buy it from the gift shop afterwards?

give the guy a break. maybe he joined here to get some help and info on the euro style to set him in the right direction.

I assume you believe that when a man plays for England he has "earned" his cap?
I am in no way suggesting what I did was of equal magnitude, but I deserve to display that sticker a damn sight more than anyone who buys it off eBay. I agree 100% with what Luke and Ali have said, people do it because they think it looks cool. Why not have the outline of Britain or France on the back of his car? Why the Nurburgring? Why not Coombe? I'll tell you why, because they think people will see the sticker and assume they've been. Why not have one of their local town? Because everyone recognises the 'Ring!
Ps Matt, I bought it from the Official shop at the end of my stay, and I was happy to give them the business to be honest!
