Having a bit of a problem with the ebayer responsible for this listing:

I agreed to buy the Xenon headlights, we exchanged several emails and he always replied very quickly. I sent payment via paypal...
I'm wanting to get my Grandma a mobile phone as her eye sight isn't as good as it was and she is struggling to text on her current phone.
I don't want someting that looks like it has been specifically designed for someone who would find a regular mobile phone difficult to use. But I think it...
My Cup seems to have developted a slight whine when accelerating in first gear, with the stereo on it isn't that noticable though. It only happens in first above 3.5k rpm and not every time. Is it likely to be a gearbox bearing that is on it's way out? If left could it cause more damage in the...
My headlights are lighting up the wrong area, almost as if they are LHD headlights. But is there any thing else that could be causing this? MOT tester mentioned cheap bulbs?
Cheers
I've seen a couple of laptops on Gumtree that are brand new and roughly 60% the price they should be from a shop. Now obviously the line "unwanted gift" may not quite be true. But at the same time do people really sell stolen laptops on the internet, surely it's a bit too obvious?
Can a...
The Cup let me down today, failed her MOT.
1. Nearside Headlamp aim beam image kick up to the offside.
2. Offside Headlamp aim beam image kick up to the offside
3. Offside rear shock absorber has a serious fluid leak.
4. Rear exhaust system not adequately supported.
5. Service brake efficiency...
I sold my Black Ph1 to help buy my house and ended up in a Punto HGT, which wasn’t a bad car at all and hardly cost anything to keep on the road. But I did miss my Ph1, it was my third 172 but probably the one I got most attached to.
So when I had settled in the house and got a bit of spare...
I'm missing one of these on the drivers side rear, Renault want £45 for some sort of repair kit that will contain this boot. I'd pay this but I'm not sure if I'm going to need new calipers and if i do, don't want to have spent money on something i won't use.
Has anyone got this boot from...
I think it's mine.
I've been having a better look under my bonnet this evening, first time I've had a decent look since buying it last week. I don't know who would put this kit on it and think it would be an improvement. Shouldn't it have a seperate breather aswell as there isn't a smaller...
The brakes on my Cup don't feel as sharp as they should, so today I booked it in for them to be checked. The fronts were fine but the backs were showing a reading of 0.
I have just been reading all the "My cup failed MOT today" threads, but the guy that checked them today had a copy of the...
Got a set of Oz F1's and had them refurbed and powdercoated anthracite, finish is spot on. Also fitted a Fabia splitter, may get a "real" one eventually.
Still can't believe how good the paint work is, although it has been detailed by a company called Divine-Shine fairly recently. Just washed...
I bought this tonight, it's my 4th 172 now and I'm very pleased with it. Mechanically it feels spot on.
It's a 2003 and has only covered 47k, with a full service history and the cambelt was changed 7k ago. HPI clear.
I went to look at it yesterday and was told it was standard apart from the...

It's not the best replica as he's taken it a bit too far with the bonnet/spoiler but I bet it shifts. Bargain at 60k!
Just found these on eBay, seem very cheap even
if it's only for 3 really.

I've advertised this on behalf of a relative.
What do people think to pricing, not got a clue about Corsa's really.
As above, my 172 was meant to be collected today by it's new owner, come to leave work and it won't start. What are the chances of that.
When you turn the ignition you can hear it trying but the engine doesn't kick in. It's never done this before, always started first time everytime.
I...
Well the red wheels came off yesturday morning and replaced with something a little more subtle. I will miss them though.
I know many will prefer the red but it was time for a change.
Fit my Turinis today as I was undecided if I was going to keep them on not. They certainly need a refurb but did come with decent tyres.
The red Oz f1's are back on now and I think I prefer them over the Turinis.
I've spent the last week in Kent, hired a cottage and have had a really good time, 95% of the time the weather was spot on. Some really good roads down there too, really enjoyed the run from Blean to Brighton through Ashford, Hastings etc.
Stuck to legal speeds on the way down and over the 270...
Has a company ever made replicas of OZ F1's?
I bought a set today, they were never advertised as being OZ but from pics and when I viewed them I was sure they were OZ F1's.
But after cleaning them I think they are copies....
