Just a local guy rebuilt the gearbox, was rebuilt only around 10k ago

It's been moved tonight apparently

It's had a rebuilt gearbox already and is now got over 100,000 miles on the clock. I'm just thinking that I'm not gonna get a great price for it if I decided to sell it.

Passed me down near asda on the way home from work, lovely looking motor, would imagine it's someone's on here!

So is it just a free for all for whoever wants it then? :pensive: I swear this is the same one that was in ivybridge (town outside plymouth) only a few months ago! Always was a nice one!

Guys, Caught in two minds really as the title states, part of me is thinking about selling the clio and getting something else, something with more power (been looking at a subaru wrx/sti hatchback). But then again the other half of me wants to keep the clio, spend more money on that, possibly...

Thats a good shout, im down in the South West, near Plymouth.

I would plan on keeping the Clio for a while because i do love it, but if i was to sell it and get a different car it would be one that is turbo charged. I think seeing as ive already spent a load on it having the gearbox done then i may aswell keep it anyway rather than loose money selling it...

Anyone know anything about my 182? DS04 FXJ Had previous services done at Diamond Motors also.

Whats your opinion guys, would you think its more worthwhile going down the turbocharing route with my 182, or better off just buying another car eg. leon cupra R? My 182 is coming up to 95,000 on the clock and has just had the gearbox fully rebuilt. Pro's and con's of going down the turbo...

Thanks alot mate, thats the answer ive been after! So any sizes between 165 and 185 will be okay yeah?

ekaJ i tried PMing you but your message box was too full! hi mate, Im going to buy a set of rota grid v's, 15x7 et20. I was just wondering about what tyres to run on them? I have looked at 185/45/15 as i would be after some stretch on them, would these provide stretch? ive got 195's on my...

What tyres would you recommend on these? i would be after a bit of stretch on them so was thinking 185/45/15? Would that size give me that little bit of stretch I am after? And fit okay on the wheels?

Yeah it would be lower, going to purchase some coilovers before I grab a set of the alloys anyway
