I'm too looking at getting one. I'm looking at this atm http://www.currys.co.uk/gbuk/samsung-ue40c6000-40-full-hd-led-backlit-tv-04906521-pdt.html

My old 172 did this when the tyres got low. I was very surprised when a new set of tyres sorted it.

Hasn't one been out into a Twingo?

Quick little cars. Mate from work use to Rally his and that use to fly. Just before he sold it, he had a 1.4xsi lump to go in to it. Spent about £3.5k on a rebuild too produce around 145bhp. I was behind one on the ring road by me to other day. It had a lot work done to it and was stripped...

The standard 1.6 petrol, 115bhp motor that goes in the first generation. Goes well mind.

They sure will..... Unless I see a cheap set with good runflat tyres I doubt I'll change them. I reckon some silver bonnet strips would look nice on it, but the Mrs isn't listening. She was same when I went to get a pipercross panel filter for it.

Took it to do shopping last night, the shopping did quite all fit the boot and I didn't even buy any beer/cider. I just know it'll be no good for me to take to work when I have to go on site, but i look forward to driving it when I'm allowed. I think the Mrs will be wanting an other one when...

Yeah the Aeropack cars do look nice. I wouldn't mind taken a JCW for drive, but I know I couldn't have a small car with no boot with work.

My mates Dad has a UK model, white, 1996, Manual Turbo which he bought himself from new and only has 38k on the clock, completed standard. He is 65 and said he will never sell it. It's a great example.

It is great fun car to drive that is for sure. For the mrs tooty around town all day it's fine and god fuel which is the main thing. I think it goes pretty well once going for 115bhp. I haven't driven it myself in the dark, but I must admitt the lights aren't brilliant

Recently got a Mini Cooper 2006 as the Mrs's car the other week. I took a few rough photo's over the weekend after a quick wash. So far it just has some repeaters. I will be painting the calipers silver, silver indicators and LED side lights, just to give it the clean look. I...

Once you start driving on grippy surface it'll reset it's self. It's just telling you something is wrong, as I guess the wheels have been spinning with the rear wheels aren't moving

Camskill have slowly been putting there prices up on these. They were £81 a few months back for the Megane, now they are £105 each. Good tyres mind. http://www.camskill.co.uk/products.php?plid=m4b0s322p15229

Prada's will last 2 seconds, grippy but soft. F1's are very good tyres. The asyrmmetric's do seem a little soft though as mine are wearing quicker than the old GSD3 F1's. Hankook V12 or S1 Evo are than better than both and much cheaper.

195's are also cheaper. I use to pay £45 each for goodyear f1's on my old 172.
