Thanks mate. Do you know if 18" wheels would clear the brakes?
Not sure, the non performance pack which uses 18 inch wheels also has smaller disks (345 vs 330).

3 weeks into ownership and I’ve kerbed my first alloy damnit! If it’s just scuffed, is it easily repairable ? Or am I gonna have to fork out for a new one ? I could just leave it and ignore it I guess.
I guess so. As they say, the first scuff is always the hardest. there will probably be plenty more. I just feel so stupid/annoyed for how it happened.Part and parcel of driving really, I'd wait a year or do and do them once a couple of years.
Otherwise you might be doing it on like a monthly basis.

1.6 Turbo club
I was so close to finishing up what I wanted done on the 208 gti, I had the clutch changed as it was making a chewbacca noise for slightly stronger clutch and single mass flywheel ready for a tune but that didn't happen as i've been unlucky with the master slave cylinder failing on me 3 times within a month and just couldn't do with it anymore.I love that club, and I do like those ST200's, nice to see a rare ST on the roads. Still enjoying my 208 GTi Prestige, sadly bonnet chips are a thing, but swapped front and back tyres over last week so that should last me til September service. End of next year I'll be needing to change even if my 3 door does have isofix
Ball park is rather wide at the moment, but it will likely be second hand/nearly new. Looking at something like an i30n down to the new Focus ST....Line X.

The clutch&flywheel was done by pug1off so it was in good hands at least but the slave cylinder being plastic just wasn't up to the job despite a fair amount of people have not had any issues with it failing.
I keep seeing a blue i30n on my way to work..beautiful colour and the colour Id go for if I was to buy one.
Still waiting for VipMotorsport to get back to me on the update of the fidrenza SMF as they have been recalled due to Luk changing the pattern on clutch so the flywheel doesn't really fit correctly by 1-2mm or something to the clutch plate.
Mine was changed around 30-40k,bought the car with around 20k mileage for 9.5k but didn't pay a penny for straight swap with a Leon diesel.That's a damn shame, mine is coming up to 20k on stock (got it at 14k) and been running fine, they do seem a bit marmite in terms of functioning....
