Worth noting that that public weighbridges have a pretty large margin for error, as they're for weighing trucks rather than cars, so that might partly explain it.
I would like to try an Abarth. Owners seem to rave about them. The reported lack of steering feel would be a bit of a concern.
I've been driving a 197 for the last couple of weeks again and really don't get why people moan about them to be honest. I got 35mpg out of the last tank, which I think...
In places like Dubai I think it's something to do with unpaid tickets or tax or something of that nature. Makes it more cost effective to just dump the car or something.
Would love to know the story with this thing.
My missus sent me these earlier. She's in Saudi Arabia currently.
Looks like a Turbo, but could be a Carrera with the aero kit. Either way, it's a few quids worth to have been dumped like that!
I saw a yellow Audi Quattro on the A12 last night
And a couple of Clios in the vicinity of Brands Hatch, think there was a track evening on.
That last one was definitely driven by a burglar/pervert lol
I would fit clears. Think later Cups had them anyway?
That's part of the appeal for me. It was a basic car and the basis for the Clio Cup rally cars. It's poverty spec is exactly why it's so appealing. But I appreciate that I am a total nerd.
That used to belong to someone on here I believe. Can't remember who though.
It looks nice but, at that money, it's into Megane 250 money, which would put me off a bit to be honest. But I'm not a massive fan of turbo Clios, so probably not the best person to ask.
Went in an E30 years ago, albeit only as a passenger. Wasn't that quick, but lordy it stuck to the road. Very cool cars. One with a lairy NA motor in it would be a lovely toy.
If it's decent, buy it. Cups are just cooler and will, ultimately, always be worth more. £2k seems fairly cheap. Can always sell it on if you don't like it.
Anyone who says that a normal 1*2 is the same as a Cup is just jealous because their car isn't special :ROFLMAO:
Went to the last enthusiasts day at Ford head office today. They're closing the site later this year and moving to Dunton, so it was the last one. Was an anniversary celebration for the Capri too.
