Spotted a blue valver last nite at about 12.15am had a cliosport sticker in the back window and lexus lights. Reg N*** NNL.
Looked lovely! Anybodys on here?
The 8 owners bit has been worrying me slightly aswell but then I think that it's 14 years old so tha's not that many?
She said that there's no rust anywhere but I'll see for myself on saturday, my budget is £1400 so I won't be paying anymore than that.
Thanks for the replies

What do you reckon?

At the beginning of september I will have a maximum of £1500 to spend on a valver. Do you think that it will be possible to get a fairly low mileage and good condition car for that money?
Also could someone conffirm the specs that I have been told please.
137BHP as standard
7.7s to 60mph...
Just been doing some online quotes as if I were 18 and had a years no claims and the results were:
Valver = £1432 TPFT with admiral
R5 GTT = £2035 TPFT
205 1.9 GTI = £1455 TPFT with admiral
and my renewal quote for my current car would be £522 with norich union.
Interesting results I...
Would be in my own name. I would never go in my parents name as I work on the theory that if I can't afford it then I shouldn't be driving it! Do you think it would be a straight 'no' from most insurance companies. I know it would be a hefty premium, probably £1800+?
I will be 18 in june and will hopefully have my first years no claims in september. I am looking at getting something different when I get my no claims. Do you think that insurance on any of the following would be remotely realistic (if possible!)
1. Valver
2. R5 GTT
3. 205 GTI

Ahh I see! That clears things up a bit! I was worrying about how I would have seperate connections for mids and tweeters but if the tweeters run off the mids then there's no problem!
Thanks for clearing that up mate.
Martin.
Thanks for the replies. I know that I will use one amp to power the sub as that is plugged into the 'sub out' on my headunit but how do I wire up the mids and the tweeters? Will there be seperate outputs on the headunit? Or if I power them from an amp will there be seperate outputs on that...
My current system consists of:
Sony Headunit
Pioneer 17cm front speakers (powered from head unit)
Legacy or infinity (can't remember which!) 6x9s on the rear shelf (powered by sony amp)
And a pioneer 10" sub powered by an alpine amp.
I have hopefully just bought some mutant x kit which...
I picked my car up from the bodyshop yesterday after having the arches done and I asked him about colour coding and he said the he wouldn't do it because he said that he's tried every plastic primer etc and 6months down the line they start to flake, he said the he would only do it if I could get...
Not entirely sure! Luckily a city link driver hit the front wing and made a very small dent but I managed to persuade the bodywork chap that it was a big dent and would be expensive to fix (wink wink!) So zurich are paying for most of it! I know that he is going to cut out all the rusted crap...
Thanks for the kind comments! The car is going into the bodyshop on wednesday for 3 days to have the arches sorted and a small dent that a nice city link driver did for me! I'll ask him about the cost of colour coding. How far do you think I should go with the colour coding? Just the bumpers or...
Tomorrow I will be replacing the interior in my 1992 1.2RL with one from a 1995 RSi. Has anyone got any helpful pointers to make things easier?
Things I'm replacing are:
Front seats
Rear seats
Rear door card type things (even though it's a 3 door!)
Thanks in advance

A compressor is just a unit that compresses air which attaches to your spray gun and pushes the paint out of the nozzle! Not sure on the price of them but don't think they're amazingly cheap. £100+ I think.
Hope that helps a bit!

I want to lower my 1992 1.2 RL, What is the reccomende height to drop the car by? I was thinking 40mm? Also what are the best springs to use when you're on a budget?!
Thanks in advance
