I'm not paying £200+ a year to tax a car just for work. Plus the increased insurance.
I don't/won't drive it on evenings or weekends, it's purely to get me to work. Therefore it needs to be as cheap as possible.
But trust me, the vectra is about 1000% nicer to drive!
The 206's are great little cars, loaded with spec! Climate, leather, multi cd, they go well and are still cheap on tax and insurance.
But we'll give the little dci 65 a go first.
Graham, thank you very much mate, I appreciate the advice.
Currently I have 10mm per side front spacers and...
I'm going to do the following...
New mounts
Fit coilovers
Fit 172 ph2 wheels (got them)
Fit spacers (got them)
New stereo (got that)
Sub and components (got them)
Full and proper clean. Seats out the lot (free for me)
Better headlight bulbs
Service it
New number plates.
Once I've done...
The speed doesn't bother me. I commute in heavy traffic for 20 miles a day and use my other car for everything else.
It's everything else about it that I hate. It's absolutely filthy inside, it needs the mounts doing, it needs 2 tyres, the stereo is s**t, the silver seatbelts are brown and...
I had a brand new dci 100 in 2005. I loved that car.
I hate this one though. Really hate it. Only driven it twice and I want to push it into a lake. Hateful little car.
(Apologies if that offends you)
What's wrong with the search function?
There are about 1 million pictures of ph1's on various wheels.
In fact there's a ph1 appreciation thread. Try that.
Car is an 04 dci 65 dynamique.
1) will coilovers fit from a mk2 ph1?
2) if they won't, will coilovers from a mk2 ph2 1.2 fit?
3) is it worth blanking the EGR on these?
4) will a dogbone mount from a 2.0 1£2/182 fit?
Thank you please.
Bonnet (providing it doesn't need dent removal/ heavy filler) is £150. Again, £200 absolute max. I work for a BMW main dealer and even we don't charge £450 or whatever obscene price it is you've been quoted.
I'm in Bristol me old fruit.
It's this s**t tapatalk. I've no idea why they changed it. I can't find anything.
But yes, like the four eyed child says, I'm after a ticket for this glorious event so if anyone finds they can't make it, hit me up!
