I have had this over a year now.
I wasn't looking for a Boxster but I saw the advert and it was local, the right price, low miles and in "very good" condition. When I went to see it the only surprise was the condition, it was pretty much perfect inside and out. A couple of the oil services had...
I've not posted much on here recently but I bought a MK1 MX5 on Friday so thought I would start a thread. I got a company car about a year a go and decided I wanted something that I could insure cheaply on a classic policy and keep in the garage for occasional use. I decided on an MX5 and have...
I went to look at a 172 this morning and the heater would not turn off, you could change the temp and direction but not speed.
Is this a new heater resistor and if so is that an easy diy job?
Cheers.
I'm looking to buy another 172 and one that I have lined up to see is described as having a CV joint that will need replacing soon.
How do you diagnose that the CV joint is worn?
Cheers.
Long shot but might be of interest to someone.
It has never broken down, I've put 10k on it in the last year and it has not missed a beat.

We sold our Panda 100HP as it was getting too small for my little boy and all his tackle. My partner has always liked the Soul and tried to get me to buy one two years ago. So I decided to have a go in a Soul and I was impressed, probably because expectations were low.
I then found one for sale...
After selling our Panda at the weekend I had every intention of buying an X Type Jag last night, but it was not as described and the current owners were reluctant to negotiate on price to reflect the issues with it. This left me in a bit of a predicament as I needed a car for today.
I was sat...
I bought this about 3 or 4 months ago for my partner, she wanted a small 5 door car that was going to be economical to run. This came up for sale locally so I went for a look and ended up coming home with it. When I drive it now I'm still surprised at how well it handles.
I sold my Saab last October as I wanted to save a bit on running costs. As I've been doing quite a lot of work on my house I wanted something cheap that I could use for going to the tip in. I started off with a budget of about a grand. I looked at the usual 1.6 Astra's/Focus's etc until I came...
I sold my Saab on Sunday, I was sad to see her go as it's probably been the best car I've owned. It was by far the hardest to sell though. I decided I was going to look for something cheap. The below cropped up on eBay at a reasonable price and only 10 minutes from my house.
It's a 1.8 T...
Saw a Sunflower Yellow parked up on Leeds Rd on Friday night, had a CS sticker in the back window along with several others. Black wheels on the front and silver on the rear.
I got an iphone 4 today on Vodafone, changed jobs and lost the perk of a company phone so just wanted the same as I had and wasn't really bothered about the "s".
I've had a pay as you go phone on Vodafone for years so thought I would keep that number. The guy in the shop said that by the time I...
Agreed to buy this just after Christmas but have been waiting for the private plate to be taken off. I know the guy who I bought it off and it wasn't officially for sale, hence the plater still being on. He bought it 18 months ago from a Renault specialist in Leeds, I remembered him saying it...
I purchased a new car this evening and it certainly is a bit of a step backwards. I've had some decent cars since joining Cliosport in 2008.

She's a 2000 SE 798cc and pulls like a train!
I decided to buy some 18 inch CSL "Style" wheels as my standard wheels had seen better days, there was very little curbing but the inner face had corroded badly. They are staggered and I think they look good but I'm sure afew will prefer the standard MV2 wheels.
I sold my Cup last week and had intended on sharing my girlfriends Punto until next year, putting some money into my house. But instead I was straight on to Pistonheads and found this 20 mins away, I arranged a viewing and bought it.
It's a 325ci M Sport, 85k on the clock, FBMWSH, 2 owners from...
I have put my Cup up for sale, so today I thought I would give her a good clean and take some pics. She scrubs up quite well.
Here are afew of the pics...
