Conversation i had with him was
"I could just say its not my problem, but i can give you warranty for £100, which will cover £750 a claim, but you would have to wait 2 weeks after you bought it before you made a claim"
I stated i don't think £750 will fit the bill as RAC guy said its a top...
basically i needed the wheels asap as the ones that were on had no spigot rings so wabbled. Renparts sorted me out with the best ones they had, one tyre was bald, other had a screw in it.

Got a 1.2 16v 2001 with a throttle body problem. :mad:
Bought one off this guy on ebay which was advertised as working on 2001-2008, was the cheapest to auction at £40. Now iv taken the old one out it doesn't match up, quoted the codes to cliospares and it comes up with a 04-06 model.:mad...
did they even make non 16v dynamiques?? not sure how a 1.2s wired then.......lol
i took mine off from the plug, let us kno how it goes anyway, may jus be a dodgy lead! :)
id say it was the coilpack. With the car switched on, one by one unplug the pencil coils. if the car doesnt struggle when one is pulled out, youl know its faulty.
his eyes look sad... and i can get him delivered to my door for £1,450.....is this too much?
purely cosmetic
Sill covers damaged, bonnet, bumper, door, crossmember.
Airbags dint go off.
I got cost to fix it around £400, if the parts were all the correct colour (optimistic)
Anyone know any...
currently looking at these, is 300 too much?
