Cambelt history (72k 5yr) and make sure the gear box changes gear smoothly and easily from stone cold. If you get there and it's been warmed up, be very wary. Gearboxes are proper common and very costly to fix by the time you've had it refurbed and a new clutch fitted. Also make sure all the...

I took my pe2's off this week and put my T1r's on (refurb wheel time) and oh my days! Dreadful!! Lol. Great fun on track but s**t the bed they don't let you push on like the michelins!

Park it on its roof?

Disconnect the negative off the battery, disconnect the coil pack plug and tuck it down the back out of view.

I thought you were going to sell it? If you're selling it, whack some mickey wing wongs on it.

Earthing fault. Usually removing the wire block on the back of the light unit and cleaning up, bit of ub40 on all the contacts and bob's your monkhouse. If you're unlucky, you may need a small screwdriver to move the pins about a bit. It's perfectly fixable but can take a lot of faffing about.

I ant day I noticed any lines?? Interesting.

I just did a bonnet in 3m stuff from ebay and was shocked at how good it was! Unbelievable stuff really. Need to get it warm (proper warm!) and make sure there's a heat gun handy because if you stretch it too much, you can just fire the heat gun at it and it's memory takes it back to the form it...

Wtf?? You're such a weirdo.

We stay in one (3 times now!) about 10/15 minutes from the black mountains. Is that any good?? Good breakfast, proper country pub at night, and a very nice owner. http://www.the-farmers-arms.com/

Got mine today, thank you. :)

No.

Lol @ your lot! Honkies can live in s**t areas and sell crap cars too Rizwan!!

I haven't even bothered driving one! I was all set to get another brand new one on pcp. On paper it was perfect for the wife and kids; 5 doors, quite small, fast, could still take it on track.... Wait a minute, it's an automatic??? No thanks.

Not really fair to assume that is it? How do you know that none if us have driven one? More to the point, who are you to tell me whether I prefer auto or manual?! If I was buying a family saloon car with a big armrest, I'd have auto every day. For anything else, I prefer to change gear myself.

Asda?! I don't shop in asda...

They don't buy them for an automatic transmission that's for sure. Oh look, you've answered your own question.

Why not just get it repaired?? Remove it, strip it all down, take it to a bodyshop and ask them to repair/repaint it. You then re fit it and bobs your monkhouse. If it's not actually that bad, they may even be able to do it whilst still on the car. Either way, it will cost a lot less than...

V6 clio or a Williams. No other clio will hold money as well as either of these. Trophy's are cheap now. Nowhere near what they were fetching 24 months ago.

3 things i've had to do on previous corsas... The area under the scuttle panel gets bunged up with leaves, overflows and fills the car. Under the passenger side of the windscreen, (remove scuttle panel to see it properly) you'll see where all the hardware enters the cabin. The seals leak...

Tbf mate, the amount of miles it's done, I don't think it's been stood still long enough for water to be able to drip downwards! lol. But that could explain the very clean engine and the fact it runs so well??

I didn't take a pic of the engine mate. Apart from general dirt and dust, it was very clean! No leaks or anything. Someone has looked after it properly it seems.

I love that. Properly nice. I really dislike the new bmw's at the moment. Very bland.

Yeah Sprinter panels rust fast mate! But transits suffer terminal rot. My mechanic had a 53 plate in the other week and he put something stupid like 8 patches in for it's mot! That's dreadful for a 10 year old vehicle imo.

Around 10 hours actual work all in. A lot of coffee/fag breaks and chatting to the neighbours means it's dragged on a bit longer though. ;)

It does. I contemplated fitting my chrome RS ones that I have in my toolbox but thought better of it!

Bradford. That is all.

This will be up for £4999 with no VAT. Lower mileage 10 plates seem to be fetching £75/8000 +vat so I think it will be priced pretty competitively. Plus, the first person to see it and drive it will buy it. It looks and drives like new. Not a single rattle or clunk from anywhere. (After I put...

I used to sell them new, and this will be my 15th! Lol. So yeah I know them quite well. We're going to start buying/selling a few of them now we have a ramp big enough for them. Great vans though, better than rusty transits!

No mate. I didn't want to use expensive stuff on it as let's be honest, whoever buys it is going to trash it again! Lol.
