On road out of brighton mid afternoon, looked the feckin business and must admit made me realise how good the 182 looks!

while a go i posted that i was thinking of cancelling my order for a 197 as had a r27 offered at a very cheeky deal. Was told £200 to walk away from 197 which had arrived and was set to sign a deal for a r27 but same day my girlfriend had a health scare so had to get rid of some stress so just...

seen it in my dads focus only last week, keep unit, write a letter of claim to manufacturer as being there goods are not fit for purpose sold, i actually work for the manufacturers insurers so limited with what can say but can give you a few pointers!

update...well no feckin update, dealer didnt call back at all monday, faxed them, missed a call from them on tuesday saying they would catch up later in week, called them back twice and left messages and today its sales managers day off, getting very very fecked off and tomorrow is war!

no real news, called dealers to speak to sales manager at 11.45am, not available, left message to call back and no call, called 6pm and he is away so have faxed them tonight stating looking to cancel....developments awaited!

i am down that road in bh on saturday afternoon so will have a look for the trophy

enjoy mate

my only concern is car is being ordered in as a pre-reg for me, so is in dealers name, dont know if any different to normal order...guess will know by tomorrow!

trust me spent enough time there to know it! haywards heath is a much nicer place but do prefer albourne/hurst!

i had no problem at all with it, norwich union accepted it no worries, as long as the renewal docs state 5 years there is no issue and from working within insurance i dont know why they wouldnt let you

a brave sole indeed who takes a trophy throught that inbred dump!

Arnold Clarks number 0845 121 0424 other way would be take out a large excess say £1k and insurance the excess, cant recall who it was but was a company offering to let you insure an excess for a fixed sum

i wouldnt waste your money mate, 18 year old bought my 1.4 and was paying £1500 fully comp, a little suggestion for you though, any questions pm me.... okay, if you use arnold clark insurance brokers they give you a instant 5 years ncd at the end of your first year, now if you cancel and ask...

having a think, if you do want it to look like a 172 and your happy to spend you £££ just say get bump strips colour coded, 1.4 badge painted silver and pick up a set of 172/182 alloys but honestly wouldnt do more than that

i would go for a 1.4 16v, used to have one on a 52 plate, maybe new wheels and dont waste your time with trying to fake it as a 172/182, keep your money as you wont recoup it when you sell and keep the cash aside for when you can get faster, too many really badly done up clios in the brighton...

thanks mate, what you going for then? did you sign any paperwork at parks in ek when you ordered it?

other dealer is providing me with advice so worst case I have a 197, best case I have a r27...not bad either way i guess!

just spoke to sales manager, they are going to check and see how far vehicle has progressed, to call back on monday, didnt sound very good tbh!

whats the most comfortable? have never actually sat in recaros and just wondered whether they would be too hard/uncomfortable?

should have an update today folks

egg just quoted me....... normal 197 £472.50 plus £250 excess and here is the confusing bit... r27 £449.40 with £150 excess both quotes based on 7 years protected ncd, no voluntary excess, no legal expenses, car parked on driveway, 3 points for speeding and no other drivers really...

sitting down whitfield drive near nationwide crash repair

front

anyone ever cancelled a contract for a car in the past?

a bit of one dealer putting his cards on the table and another dealer closer to home saying he would match....cant imagine they would go any lower

going to be red either way!

please note r27 offered by rival dealer from one normal 197 ordered from
