  1. And I'm regularly getting 50+mpg and 500+ miles to a tank. Mind you, I do drive in my slippers with Kenny Rogers playing on the CD player how the hell are you getting such good mpg readings? im getting 32.5 at the moment and thats the best ive had in nearly a year and almost 12,000 miles. are you sure youve not got a diesal????????
  2. she is stunning mate, love the kit and colour
  3. cheers foxy, goin to have a bash at colour coding them soon if they are that easy to get off.
  4. hi all, looking for some help, do the front fog surrounds on the focus come off the bumper or are they integral to it thanks in advance
  5. nice one mate, realy detailed how to there. what have you done with the wing repeaters? kept em or blanked em off?
  6. what made you change the wheels? i like the mondy wheels myself and im hoping to get some for mine sfter seeing them on yours, mines only a zetec but seeing them on a red focus has defo made my mind upto get them.
  7. my mpg seems to go up when im on motorways doing around 90ish and if theres any plod reading dont worry, im in germany and thats about the legal limit here. sorry chaps i dont often come back to the uk he he
  8. thats why then, thanks pal. i think it was yours i was looking at in the section for mk2 pics. did you have a light blue one? your st looks sweet mate. what was your fuel consumption like on your "normal" foucs? mines done 9000 approx and only gives at the best 31.3mpg on motorways, around town it can get as low as 29.6mpg
  9. hi, nothing to do with coolant but my 55plate zetec with the ti-vct engine has used a fair amount of oil since getting it brand new. anybody had this problem?
  10. hiya peeps, just been looking on the forum and it seems some people with the ti-vct engine have rear disc brakes and not drums like myself and a few others ive seen, whats the deal is it a upgrade or are they standard?? anybody know why?
  11. look in your owners manual mate, there is a section dedicated to changing bulbs
  12. mine has auto locking. a 55 plate zetec climate
  13. mine was brand new with only 26 miles on the clock, i realise they are cheaper second time around but as i was buying tax free i thought what the hell get a new one lol
  14. the bumper is already slightly different from the body, has been since new to be honest. ive used the bodyshop in past for various bits over the years and i know when i get it back itll look better than new. im having all the palstic bits done ie, side bump strips etc. just got to decide what wheels to have now ha ha
  15. yeah me to! i wonder why? any techies out there got a answer? have any of you got a induction kit or aftermarket exhaust on? if yes, were did you find them?
  16. i think you could of got your point across without having a go, i have spoken to the car park manger and this has happened before and the post should be painted the same as the rest of the pst within the car park and they are also to short to be seen from inside the car. the firm is going to pay up to repair the damage and whilst its in the body shop im getting it coulour coded. i fell back in love with the car today after beating a astra twinport away form the lights he he
  17. i have a 55plate zetec climate mate and ive got the holders but no wires. i think the holders are standard on all dashes and they put the wires in to what car they need. if anybody knows how to wire it up, lets us all know please
  18. not got a clue mate to be honest. i picked mine up for 10500 in january. thats a zetec climate but i bought it tax free as im in the army and in germany. if youve got a zetec and now your after a zetec climate theres only 2 things differant and thats air con and a quick clear front screen on a climate. hope it helps
  19. hang on simplythebeast, i know its my fault that i hit the bloody post but in my eyes if the post was painted like the rest of the posts in that car park then im my opion i would of seen it and not have hit it. i dont appricaite the tone of your messgae and i dont think its in keeping with the spirit if this forum to be honest.
  20. the docs dont say anything but check your owner manual or if you need it ill scan the page and post it for you but from what i can see the intake pip from the air filter goes inbetween the manifold on a normal 1600cc and on a vct it enters the engine before the manifold. regards allen
  21. 116 is the bhp mate, ill have a look at my docs and let you know pal.
  22. hiya mate, i thought the same when i goit mine to ha ha ha. it says so on the log book and the manifolds are different between the ti-vct and the normal 99bhp 1.6. if you look i the owners manual it shows pics of all the engines and you can see were there is a difference here is some pics of my engine. hope it helps and if you start to look for parts ie fil[ ters and samcos etc please let me know has im finding it hard to source bits
  23. has nobody got anything to say about this lol
