    Finance

    At the end of the day the bottom line total figure to pay is what matters. i.e: borrow 6K, re-pay 7K A low figure will often be bumped up by arrangement, facility fees, insurance etc. Basically I paid £9800 from a Reno dealer (£10100 incl. all fees @ 3.4% APR) for a car listed at 11K (air...

    What’s the sketch with warranties

    Any official main dealer (some indendents display Reno badge, but not Main dealer) check with Reno HQ for official ones in Cornwall. Also get anything sorted before xmas - leave anything till last few months of warranty and theyll be very very slow in helping!!

    Wot a F**kin’ rip off!

    vRS great car & v. quick but I dont like the body kit! Also not group 3 insurance and 70mpg - both Essential when you do up to 700 miles a week and have a speeding ticket and a claim! vRS is 106BHP/ton (assume actual 140BHP and 1310Kg) vRS 190lb/ft per tonne (250lb/ft for typical PD130)...

    Wot a F**kin’ rip off!

    tried a dCi 100, but probably cos a bit smoother, quieter and refined, didnt really feel any quicker than 80. out of curiosity, I asked about trade in on Mint 03 80 with 11K £5000 to change!! - F**K OFF I will shortly be spending £300 to £400 on an chip upgrade!

    Advice on Dynamiques

    consider max. deposit, minimum final payment - 35% and 15%, so you are not stung at end of deal. check Reno finance carefully - I saved about £1000 by asking for all extras like Gap Insurance, Tyre Cover etc. to be taken off (OK if you have a decent deposit, so that your car is worth more than...

    screeching discs SOLVED!

    apparently since Asbestos has been taken out of brake pad linings, they are more prone to squeal or screech. Dealer checked the pads and discs on the missus Citroen and found nuffin wrong, so seems fair - they could have stung me for more pads!

    upgrading 175/60/14’s to 185/60/14’s

    wider 195 etc. will probably foul more, but 185/60/14 are taller me thinks! check diameter difference by putting old and nu in - more than a few % will slow you down 2 much! http://www.miata.net/garage/tirecalc.htmlhttp://www.miata.net/garage/tirecalc.html
