Blue 182 selling at Otley car boot. I would have said hello but I was carrying two boxes and trying to get my 2 year old to follow me. Nice car you got there.

Always ask for cancellations, its the only way to get a UK person on the phone I have found. Then tell them you want to cancel due to being dicked about by someone at one of the foreign call centres. Internet has always been top notch for me, but the Scientific Atlanta old V+ boxes I found to...

Yeah its silver with the decals by the back wheels and minging, soon to be changed, OZ 35th anniversary alloys.

Lol I didnt think you were swearing, I thought it was a \m/ , damn no avatar for it on here :)

I passed you guys I think parked up at the North Yorks Moors carpark on the Whitby Road... I really should have checked this section as I was staying out that way for a long weekend. Someone spoted be and gave me the (good) two fingered salute. Dan

They are chinese clones. Theres clones of offical tools like the Lexia stuff, Nissan Consult, GM opcom, Snap-on... you name it. They arent that reliable I hear, and they only work correctly with the software supplied as the official updates usually brick them.

Hi Sarah and thanks for the welcome. Was a nice car to be fair, had no bother with it until February when an oil blockage caused the variator to be starved of oil, which made the cambelt rip to shreds... That was like £700 to fix, and then theres the fuel economy, or lack of lol.. Thinking PH2...

Hello and thanks for the welcome Looking for something around £2600-£3000 really, so really the bottom end. Looked at one yesterday, no history and looked like it had been driven into a hedge. All the rest of them seem to be in Lancashire. Plus I have my car to part ex.

Hi there, Just joined as I am looking for a 172 at the moment. Currently drive a Stilo Abarth but sick of the non existant fuel economy and stupid servicing costs so looking to change. Just doesnt seem to be many cheap ones round Leeds.
