I’d love any of them, I’d give it to the wife as she deserves her own runabout

@matthewhicks7399 2 года назад

Would absolutely love the Golf. My first car was a MK4 GT TDI 15 years ago (with an R32 bodykit on it)! Mapped and modded to the hilts and even took my driving test in it! 2 minors! :) Just blew the engine on my weekend fun car (Rx8) so I'd worship the GTI! P.S. I'm a dreamcatcher!!! :)

@timothyhewitt6736 2 года назад

Calv, black/dark wheels are now really played out an overdone. Silver is now the new black and I think they look bang on 👍

@PeterGal987 2 года назад

First of all, I love you and your videos. But I must tell you, your acceleration are fucking bad with most of the cars. 🚗 😅

@W00LFY100 2 года назад

Leave the wheels silver and get it lowered with spacers 👌🏻

@garethprytherch9623 2 года назад

It should be the clutch that’s pushed in to start. The switch under clutch pedal is faulty so Renault used a back up brake pedal switch so the car will start and not leave you stranded. Only a cheap £10 part . Go grey for wheels btw 👍

@andyb9751 2 года назад

Had a 182 but always wanted one of these great cars. Keep the wheels silver ✌🏼

@timothyhewitt6736 2 года назад

+1 think the silver wheels look great.

@darrenmcgrogan8843 2 года назад

same here. in my own opinion, i think black wheels only suit dark coloured cars. black, grey, DARK blue etc.

@captainlupo5516 2 года назад

Definitely keep the wheels silver they look much better against the blue

My EP3 has smoked a MK4 and MK3 Clio RS. Numbers mean nothing. Still, the Clio's are great fun to drive.

@acarguy3773 2 года назад

When the cars are this similar on paper, the difference between the drivers is all it can take. 🤔🤔 I have yet to race an ep3 so can't comment from my experience tbh. I can believe the ep3 might be a bit faster in a straight line, but as soon as it gets to the twisties the Renault is top of class.

Eh hardly.

Ps4 tyres now, just waiting for a Civic and I'll see what happens 🤷🏻‍♀️.

I drive these when new it’s better than a type r ep3 in power delivery but type r would be a better long term runner. I didn’t like the Brembo 4 pots on there are the car nose dives excessively and tramlines under heavy breaking

@acarguy3773 2 года назад

The brakes are amazing at rotation. I agree with the tramlining, but the nose dive means the brakes can be used to make you faster with weight transfer, its so easy to rotate the rear around a corner using the brakes. 🤔 🤔 But it doesn't make it feel quite as stable as some might light, that's the thing with these they don't ever want to go straight.
