Does anyone on here do this? Is it alright? Are there any underlying charges etc.? I have a quote for a year which is probably the best I'm going to get, still ridiculous though. If I choose to pay monthly the 'total amount payable' is only about 60 quid more than annual, meaning I won't have to...
Basically my insurance and MOT have run out at the same time. I'm wondering:
- Can I get insurance on the car without an MOT, in order to drive it to the MOT?
- Can I get someone to tow my car whilst I am in it with no insurance/MOT?
- If none of the above, wtf can I do?!
I think some of the...
Followed you up the motorway and turned off at Kearsley/Swinton area
Completely standard 172. You woun't have noticed me as I was in a Seat Ibiza haha.
I need my wheel off to check something, but all the bolts except one will come off! It's too tight basically.
I can't take it to a garage as insurance and MOT have run out and I have no specialist gear, just a torque wrench.
Any ideas?
I had a problem with the exhaust popping/spluttering and replaced the coil pack, problem solved.
Well now it's started again! Could it be the coil pack again (I bought a second hand one) or another problem?
All this just before my bloody MOT :(
Yes I too went to check out the Lusty Clio, it's still parked at the entrance to the garage thingy to attract people in probably :headno: managed to get a brilliant picture on my phone:
+ Middo on the first page of Performance French Cars mag :O

Mixed thoughts about this, though the LED headlights do sound pretty neat. I reckon it could look alright but in a different colour.
Views?
Hi, it started the other day when I was just driving along the motorway and the 'SERV and (ABS)' lights came on. They went off shortly afterwards and all was fine until I started her up this morning and they were lit up again. They have been lit up all day too, and the ABS isn't actually working...
Gave her a little wash today, used a bit of wax and tyre shine too. It's probably the only time I've spent over an hour cleaning it. My conclusion? Black is a pain in the fcuking arse to wash.
There's also loads of stone chips all over the front of it from those b*****d...
The brake light in my spoiler won't work and after trying near enough everything I can't really (be arsed) diagnosing the problem and fixing it.
Would I pass an MOT with it not functioning, bearing in mind a lot of cars don't even have them?
Perhaps a stupid question I know, just wondering...
A nice fellow from EVO sent me a couple of stickers, they arrived today but I'm not sure were to put them.
I was thinking on the rear windows at the back, would this be too chavvy though?
Other option is just one on the tailgate window, but with my CS sticker it might look a tad cluttered...
A blue 182 parked half on the curb on what I believe to be 'Ackers Road'
I also caught a certain someone from MJ Cycles having a cheeky stare :O saw the 182 parked up outside.
...in the boot - what would you guys say would be best to do it? I'm sticking a decal over the top so it won't matter about matching, just need them filled in really. I put a penny on the inside and could possibly glue it there, but there would still be a little dint so maybe I'd need some sort...
Almost forgot about this one! Think it was on one of those windy B roads, but not really sure... we were in a red Audi estate coming he opposite way.
Looked bloody clean tbh.
Both at around 2 perhaps;
Black 172 going town Bury/Bolton road
Silver 172 near St. Peter's Way
Wouldn't have recognised me as I was in a red Audi estate :O
Went to Manchester today to take a few pics. Due to the fact I have no arch liners, whenever I wash it, it just gets dirty again. Hopefully a set will be arriving this week so no more filthy! Springs have bedded in a little more now too, still a bit to go at the front I reckon but sits perfect...
