I have read many many crash stories on here and fully expected for me to get torn into tbh. Live and learn situation, i also assumed that this thread would turn from which car to go for into what happened on the crash :P

red... be oringinal ;)

might just go for another authentique, s**t i know but great on insurance :)

Yep, as i say lesson defiantly learnt. I am not one of these people who try to blame everyone else. When the police took statements for witnesses they all said i wasn not speeding but may have been going a little fast for the situation.

very true, if you are wanting to know what happened, there were 3 cars infront of me, the first one didnt know where she was (she said this in the statement) and needed to go down a straight that she was level with so she put her brakes on sharpish, i am not blaming her for the accident as most...

Older one it is then...

who said it had anything to do with power why i crashed? I can drive, as @dunn said... accidents happen, especially to new drivers...

i shall rephrase this, even as i re-read it now i can see what you mean, 'i drive well' would be a better fit, but yh i am thinking that if i get an older mk2 now then a few years down the line say when im 21+ i will have the money i have already got and more for something better such as a 197...

to be fair the insuraqnce is only £500 more for the newer one, and i knew some people would not be happy about the writing off of the car then getting the new one, i am acctually a good driver ( i know everyone says this who has a crash but oh well) it was just a shear accident. But even so i...

yh i'm also from Ripley live just down from lidl, really did think the purple looked top notch but i saw you the other too and it looks pretty much just as good in stealth to be honest. I was thinking of getting a tce but the sx rather than the world series, they look great.

yh it is a 1.2 tce turbo, i think its the world series one not the sx, its one of the higher specs of the 1.2.

im thinking of getting the same except for in blue, i am torn between splashing out on a mk3 tce sx or sticking to mk2 and saving the money... any thoughts?

From the reg plate, im guessing this is the one i've seen around ripley a fair few times, firstly with purple wheels then you changed to black? If so why change!? the purple looked spot on.

surly you have been given enough ideas to give it a start?

yh it has to be a 1.2, there is no way of a 17 year old new driver to be insured on that.

I recently wrote off my car and am currently looking for a new one. I'm not sure which way to go, i was at the renault garage near me earlier today and there was the Clio Dynamique SX on an 08 reg. Alternativly i could get a cheaper, older clio such as the 99-05 shape and have a lot of spare...

so not even as a starter?

I am wanting to get into photography and by chance someone at the work place has the stated camera underneith for half the price, i was wondering of peoples thoughts of it as a starter :)...

I like how he doesn't know what puntuation is, I also enjoy the fact that on the infomation of it he states the engine size as 200cc.

number plates off of my written off cars, a ribbon bow, spare tyre.

many, many, many people have sprayed there standard alloys, a quick search in the project thread should come up helpful for you :)

i thought they have torx screws in?

i also dont have a sport but have the stickers in, ive seen a few 172's never looked close enough to see stickers though, put a couple as spotted on here but no one came forward, 1 182 but forgot to post that and i have a v6 that lives just around the cornor from me ( f**king love waking up and...

i was only there for a minute or two picking some one up and only saw one if memory recalls but i could be mistaken, it could have been later on but im pretty sure it was 3(ish) to be honest i was more focused on the 172 as you dont see many members around derbyshire... well i dont anyway.

i also saw this, must have missed you by a few minutes as i think it was 3 when i was there...

any one know?

Just out of curiosity what would happen if it did not have airbags? would there be a problem then?

^ really?

excellent, thanks for all your help.
