Was expecting this post to appear in the 'You park like a c*nt' thread. Most disappointed in the sensiblity shown.

How long will it be before we have to explain why a small Ford at 23-years vintage and with only 155bhp on tap, requests a five-figure price? ;)

Welcome aboard :) Was it the RSi that had the shorter ratio'd gearbox?

Lol - no chance. There's the whole media PC scene that is still popular - streaming stuff that's both legal/illegal. One of my work collegues has his permanently hooked up to the main 4K TV in the living room and I have my own PC connected to both a 1440 27" monitor and a 50" plasma screen...

Still no PC couch co-op. Blizzard are just off their t1ts. Really want to NOT buy D4 on priciple (I actually dislike Blizzard more than EA!) - but no doubt I'll end up buying two copies because they can't be arsed to emulate what console players have as standard, and what is also standard...

That was a great, honest ad as well - a shame you had to take the financial hit.

They clearly aren't - but they passively look like they have been sun-bleached and faded compared to black. Similar to those god-awful rear quarter slabs that Audi stuck on their early Q2s.

How come?

Spotted it yesterday across the way from a rather nice looking i20N.

A mate of mine posted this up on our WhatsApp group. He's informally known as The Cousin Fcuker and would literally live out his hillbilly fantasies driving this around, if you're free and available? Epic purchase, btw.

Just sent you a PM :)

I don't mean the childish comments in game directed at one another. But the simple concept of what a mic does when adorned to the head of a significant proportion of the world's population of knuckle-dragging wombats. Have these gimps never heard of a mute button? They aren't even talking in...

Hi Will, Not on my phone - but I can take a couple tomorrow, if you like?

Hi Will, Yes, all still good. I'm actually more conscious of the other side that I haven't had done yet. :P In retrospect, I wish I'd saved up a bit more and got both sides done at the same time. I know I've got a bit of corrosion on the floor pan near the OSF wheel and will probably get that...

@Ant1 - have you actually tallied-up over the years, just how many different cars have taken a place on that driveway? ;)

If the shipping costs don't kill you, I cannot recommend @NorthloopCup highly enough. It's comforting to know that as these cars get older, that there's someone who knows these gearboxes (literally) inside and out. Parts might become like unicorns to obtain, but at least the knowledge will be...

Would the charging cable reach to where it is on the drive? Or would you have to swap about with the Audi?

Welcome! Make sure you check and double check the alternator if and when you manage to source one. The local Renault dealership took three attempts to get the right one for mine.

I was thinking that. Some therapist somewhere, could write a book on the thought processes going on here? :P I won't climb my usual anti-EV pulpit - but fcuk me - those wheels! Day 1 - I'd be swapping those for steelies. Or rust-ridden shite from a scrappers. Anything else....

Nice find and decent price. (y) Makes me question as to what value I would accept for mine? It would have to be significant for me to even consider selling it in all fairness - probably way more than the going rate, even for tidy examples.
