Petrol is fast on paper and paper only, get the DCI.
The Dci seems to be quite rare in the GT format.
cant afford the insurance on a 200 thats the problemonly 19 lol
is there a remap available for the diesel?
And breathe.
should be able to get them remapped quite easy
you should declare it to your insurance as your 19 i don't think a remap is going to be premium friendly if they are prepared to cover you a remap will also void parts of your warranty if its proved the parts failed due to the map also don't believe the myths they are un delectable
have you driven a dci gt ?
a very good pointWhy bother re-mapping it? It's going to be slow regardless. Not only that a lad your age (judging by the fact you can't afford the insurance for a 200) won't be able to afford the unnecessary repair bills if any modifications you do invalidate parts of the warranty.
Just drive it sensibly, keep a clean licence and collect some NCB to work up the scale.
Be positive about the Diesel (I'm having to drop from a 225bhp Turbo Megane to a 1.5 dCi!!) you'll get good MPG and a fun car to boot that's reliable and under warranty! Save your pennies for the 200 next![]()
+1 on white. Looks nice!
Mine's on finance and has a very good GFV, else I wouldn't have bothered.
If you engineer the deal correctly you won't have an issue. All new cars lose money if that's what scares you then buy one that's a year old.
maviso5, do you have any pictures of your car?
Very basic IMO.
Dci if you want economy, the 1.6 is just a fast 1.2 i think lol. Its a fun car to drive i guess, coilovers or 45mm hr springs is a must with spacers on the rear.
I went for a GT over a sport too, I get the whole "you could have had a nice 1 series, or something else for £11.5K" all the time from my friends. Kinda regret buying a new car, i could have spent the £11.5k on a 182 an insured it for 2 years most likely but.....i didnt want to. Part time job and at uni, cant really justify the running costs.
i am in the same situ as yourself, also at uni and part time job. No one has said to me about the costs, but tbh i wouldn't be able to afford the insurance + running costs of an RS :dapprove:
i do feel a bit out of place on this forum tho...but cant afford or afford the insurance of an RS![]()
would of loved to be on the Cliosport stand at the FCS. RS twingos are good fun. had a race with one the other day
cars smart what extras does it have ?
nah good funnot a huge amount in it is there![]()
