As the 106 Rallye is sold i thought i'd buy a new run about, only changes i've made so far is i've 2 tyres on the front so it legal to drive and ive set it up on the gas anyliser, co was at 5.38 recomended 2.5-3.0 so i'd say it would have been costing the previous owner a fair few quid to run, it now set at 2.85 and she runs good only problem is i set it up warm and it wont idle when cold so i need to play a bit more Smile

First thing im doing is changing the mirrors they are S**T, i have got a spare standard pair but 1 has damaged glass and the other a damaged arm so might just put the matigs on for now and see how it looks, im not sure on the alloys at the moment im on 2 mind at the moment 1put standard alloys on it and keep everything original or 2 put smaller tyres on it and lower it 80mm de badged grill etc etc

back it off down to 1.5-2% on the CO and it'll work much better Simon, had exactly the same idling issues with mine for the MOT a month ago.

I quite like the wheels, some of the PTS wheels were a very similar shape, less dish to the spoke IIRC, look similar to the Mi16 wheels.

not at all no, that's the recommended area to set them to, 3.5% is just the limit.

idling and coming onto throttle from idle is much smoother, far less kangarooing.
