i still think the mk2.5 (well, the "RS" at least) looks like a trainer. i know thats kinda what they intended with the mk2, but this one's really hit the mark! :roll: ive only seen black and blue ones on the road, and they look bad enuf!

well the front end is different, but the back end is virtually identical iirc. so get one of the new ones. it'll fit, and might make urs a bit unique! :wink:

if it shares wheels with the mondy, get a set of st200, or stttttttdci wheels!! super gorgeous! rich -
have an immobiliser, and keep the immobiliser key on a separate keyring (my house keys are separate to my car keys). that way u can give them ur keys, leg it, and they cant do diddly squat! but the 6-cell mag lights do give fantastic light output!! :wink: :lol: rich

if they're worn on the inside, then u need to get ur camber adjusted on them. garages will sort this for u, for very little money. ur best off tryin 2 get it done somewhere thats got a 4-wheel laser alignment machine!! rich

yeah, 4th'd! simple cure tho - wash ur windscreen, then floor it in 1st or 2nd, and it goes 'up' rather than 'down' ur windscreen!! rich

rich, u gettin a black 1?? if so, just tint them!!??!! if not, im fresh out of ideas!! :P :lol: rich -
well, in theory, you're 100% right. i think its down to it being an even harder compound, so the tyre doesn't "squidge" to the shape of the road as much. i dnt think the energy tyres give u a particularly great level of grip, but they're not really aimed at sporty drivers!! but i dnt no 100% either way myself abt these things!! rich

in the factory!!! :P :lol: :wink: :roll: sorry, j/k!! all over the world m8. im in stoke, and we used to make them here, but they knocked the main part of the factory down, so we only do truck tyre remoulds here now! world HQ is in Clermont-Ferrand, and theres another factory in France (cant remember where off hand), one in spain, one in dundee, ballymena (co. antrim), nigeria, poland, india (i think), japan, a few in america, one in brazil, erm, i think thats most of them. but different factories make different ranges, we have several sub-groups, like BFGoodrich, Kleber, Kormoran
