PM'd lol.
Cheers for the comments, it certainly is a lot of fun, makes anything else feel numb, my daily driver is a Panda 100hp which in itself is quite a capable highly regarded drivers car, after a spin in the Westy the Panda feels like its broken!
Yeah I fucked up abit on it tbh, it was round the corner from Colshe HQ, the penny only dropped when I got home, could have gone for a pint :mad:
Having said that if I had told you I bet you would have bought it cos it was cheap!
Here it is then, have had it a couple of weeks now, its a narrow body Westfield SE.
Its around 170bhp and has been weighed at 500kgs!
Still getting used to it, seems to go very well..
I love tarting old cars up like this, as soon as its mint though I loose interest and sell it on! Just helped my mate do a similar thing on a faded red UK MX5.
If the vehicle was recalled then the catch was replaced. There were two recalls, the first was for an inspection and the 2nd they replaced it.
If the car had the recall done in 2008 it was probably the first recall where they only lubricated the catch.
The safety catch does not 'fail' it just...
I did the product training on these when they first came out, I drove the GT version with the four wheel steer, fantastic cars, build quality is right up there with Mercedes/ BMW, some good deals to be had aswell, love it.
I deal with these all the time at work so I can help.
You need to remember its a mechanical break down warranty, so they will not cover wear and tear items, the only part of an exhaust that would be covered is the cat.
The other thing to consider is you will still need to pay a diagnostic/...
Worth about £3200 standard, the market is flooded with RS Clio's at present, I wouldn't even bother ringing up one with mods like that, shame as it looks a nice example.
I just sold a standard 03 plate Monaco with 64k for £3800, it did have some nice upgrades though.
Ok, so its a 1985 Suzuki SJ410, not quite as cool as Dan's but still a good laugh, its like a moutain goat this thing, already been through some tricky stuff in it and will be doing some pay and play days/ green laning in it.
Good Points:
Its Green.
Taxed and tested
Bonnet polished 50/50, its...
I have only just read the bit saying you bought it on finance? Did you pay a deposit on a credit card?
Daniel is the man to speak to, you MAY be able to get in contact with the finance company and they will fight the battle for you, the tyres need to be sorted as does the bonnet cable, you can...
This seems to happen time and time again on ClioSport, if your not prepared to look around a car properly or don't know what your doing then BUY AN AA/RAC/INDEPENDENT inspection, even if the cars at a dealer. Its not complicated, im sure there are plenty of local members on here that would have...
Its just black vinyl, they all have it, I guess its meant to make it look like the entire side of the car is a window lol. It doesn't.
In terms of the marina, I live with my old man!
Wheels are 15's, im running eagle F1's :approve:
I ve had 2 Zetec S's, its feels quicker but probably isn't, ride is firmer and I would say the handling is about the same, if not marginally better.
The engine though is definatly more characterful, the zetec's are abit dull and quiet where as...
Lol, its a capable little machine but a 133 would be faster, having said that these are half the price.
I didn't buy it for its looks.
Still love the VW's, I paid the same for this though as my Y plate Lupo GTi, this is an 07 plate!
Handles much, much better and is overall more fun...
Cheers for the comments, LOL @ Colshe drop me a text mate you can have a spin in it! I saw your thread Danny but im being a tight arse and haven't renewed so I can reply!
I ve always secretly loved the 100hp but all my mates, girlfriend at the time hated it. Then one day I just thought f**k what...
Bit of a marmite car this, looks like a dogs dinner but drives very, very well, feels faster than the figures suggest, fuel economy is good (40mpg), ride is abit bumpy but the handling is exceptional, really is great fun to drive.
I ve had it since March but today is the first chance I ve had to...
No. I ve got a Monaco 172 for sale and the phone hasn't stopped. It is a peach though.
Having sold many, many cars over the years in my opinion the only thing that will stop something selling is the price. If your getting no responce then its overpriced, simple as that.
Its not bad, we have a twingo gordini in, i don't like some of the detailing like the 'g's on the stripes LOL.
My personal opinion is that renaultsports are bought for the way they drive and feel on the road, the 'luxury' hot hatch end of the market with leather interiors and hand stitched...
