Hehe I knew what that link was gonna be before I clicked it :D I like that one too, but it'd be good to see some un-fiddled shots. It's a shame they're all so photo-shopped, the wheels look almost stretched in a few of the shots, and they've made the streets too empty an 'clean'. I'm sure it...
Good luck to him if it ever gets finished, although as others said, the Laguna V6 is 194bhp, I don't think it ever even got the 210 seen in the Pug 406, which till 98 also had the 194bhp one - which was less economical as well as less powerful. It was a very different engine in 210bhp guise...
As everyone else says, it's bloody well done, and it's his car at the end of the day - not forcing anyone else to own it, ride in it, or even look at it heh! Good on you for posting it tbh, knowing what a lot of people would say :) I seem to recall the orange tanned FCS promo girls were...
Using Glasses Guide on the VX website, it reckons these stopped at 52, it may be wrong/yours slightly late registered, whatever it only goes to 52 plate heh, so this is a 'pretty close' guess according to Glasses...

I've just done a similar trip that took in The Ring, take a look in road driving stories for my 10 countries, 5 days, 1 nurburgring trip :)
All I'll add here, is that Monaco was a disappointment :( The bits you see on TV were so busy it was hard to tell what was what and away from the...
Well, I suppose you know the details, the lower weight etc. The Cup would be more like than the valver than the FF, being more basic and raw with the less sound deadening etc. But it comes down to, do you fancy having a few more luxuries, or having not had them before, do you need them? It's...
They should definately of got your authorisation for the work. But make sure you do the complaing in person, remember, they have your car, if there's an unpaid bill I bet it would take a while to force them to release it heh, although I don't know, I'd just assuming the police would be useless...
He won't have known and it doesn't affect the value either really - so no need to get upset... They were sold through UK sellers, like car supermarkets and stuff, and when you come to move it on personally I don't see a reason to mention it?
Well a lot of people on Pistonheads reckon that when it mullered the ring record it was a boosted up special on slicks heh. I remember the discussion when the new GT-R came out and started breaking records, people were all saying "Is it standard or the same as the R32/R33, that had the boost...
£7,750 is pretty good settlement, don't suppose you could hope for a great deal more unfortunately :(
As to what to get next, well you mentioned the 350z - so I guess you're thinking around the £15k mark? Or have the option of saving a lot of that, maybe a 197 as like, the natural step - if...
I'm with you mate, not a fan, they do look well dated, pass me my coat as well please hehe :)
And come on now, "they still beat most supercars" is a bit a massive generalistion isn't it? I assume you're only talkin tuned ones as well of course?
I remember when I was in hospital, someone...
This thread rules :) Although I can't help but thinking that some are a bit made up to get a laugh hehe! Not that I'm complaining - everyone likes a smile :)
This may be worth noting for future comparison reasons, as I just did a 2,600 mile trip round Europe, 3 up with some luggage in my R27. This included 4 laps (about 50 miles?) of the ring at a very spirited pace heh - and then there was half a day up and down mountains, lots of...
Gutted mate :(
On the upside, a lot of the 182s from traders on Autotrader are very pricey, so you have a decent chance of arguing a fair settlement.

No hidden costs that aren't mentioned on here daily... Did you think maybe there were some bills that you had to be part of a secret society on here to be allowed to talk about... ;) ?
And £5.5k will easily get a nice Ph2 172. If as you say, you have £6k you're willing to spend you're just...
Ah maybe it is only a 100shot then? It'd be an awesome long distance machine heh! You go get places, when travelling abroad so points didn't matter, well fast hehe ;)
As you can see, I fixed the link heh. When he got it, it was standard looking, with standard wheels etc. Then it got that bodykit and those AWFUL wheels and that just ruined it for me tbh. It had a decent interior though too, all red leather and stuff, was nice to look at.

I've never owned one no. A guy I know well enough to say hello to owned one, a casual acquaintence, had one. One of my good mates knew him a lot better (worked together). He was the type of guy to through a car a year sort of thing. He had the RX7 when we were all like, 18/19 so we thought...
Some interesting interpretations of 'Soft Top' there hehe!
Quite like the look of those Abarth 500s, they look better than the normal FagWheels version. Aren't they having power upgrades available so you can have 180bhp? 180bhp, from that 1.4 litre, Turbo'd Fiat engine...
Hope you kept an eye on her - she looks like the type more used to nickin' alloys an leaving cars on bricks... She's clearly eyeing up your wheels hehe!
Well played on getting on a stand in the show mate! I know a lot of people on here will be quick to mock a show like that - but those in...
