Thanks for the responses guys :) Does anyone know of some cheap wheels for sale? need to renew my membership on here really!

Im back on this forum again with my 6th Clio now! Got offered this 172 the other day for the bargain price of just £500 from a friend i play in a pool league with. Its covered 96k miles and its completely standard, my friend having owned it for the last 10 years. Belts have been done previously...
