    Starting out on my own - cleaning cars for money !

    Id try and learn a proper trade. The govt is spending crazy amounts of cash on building projects over the next few years. Ive been kinda out of work since march so have taken to working with 2 welders. Its been good fun and ive learnt alot. They get paid a fortune too.

    Decided we needed a cheap family car on lease...

    Looks ok. If it was my money id get a 2 year old tiguwannn for about 15k. Prob cost less over 2 years and 10k and you dont have an hour of bricking it when it gets inspected handing it back. When I handed back the cactus i had on lease they tried to charge me 500 quid for stone chips. Can be...

    My mate had something similar with his m3. Been stored in his garage 2 years. Went to clean it during lockdown to find the spring had snapped. Will sit there another few years now i expect.

    182 tho the Valver would be very tempting. Depends on the rust really.

    Frayz's Inferno 182 - Back in the old flame

    Good choice @frayz I have been round brands in a turbo 1*2 (i think it was alex's). Tho impressive it takes away the point of the clio for me and id just rather have an r26. I did own an r26 for 3 years but always preferred the n/a of the clio.

    Clio 200 dilemma

    Id keep looking tbh. I would also get one that needa belts doing and take it to a respected specialist to get em done. Black and grey arent really good colours on the 200 tho thats subjective.

    Clio 182 vs Twingo 133

    Borrowed a new 133 cup for a run down to Good wood back in 2010. Thought it wasnt much cop really. Swift sport was a better. Id easly have a good 1*2 over a 133. Wouldnt bother with a 197 or 200 as the running costs are far too high for what you get and i bet most are very tired now. The 225...

    If you had to choose one or the other for your clio?

    Lower seats? 😁 The driving position is awful for everyone tbh. Deffo the worst part of the car.
