I like these, I might go for a diesel one at some stage, im not sure on the black wheels though, think I would have preferred the silver ones.

Its abit tight with two people, im about 5ft 8 and not exactly slimmer of the month but no fatty either im alright once im in! Fat people do not fit. Im not being harsh they physically will not fit in it! What engines in the widebody Dave?

Re: RenaultSport Clio 200: Enhancement Detail Plus Wheel Arch/Alloy Detailing (PIC HE Nice job, what is the thing he is drying it with called, I need one of those, where can I get one!

Oil looks abit cheap... Can't have been anything decent. Gates belt kit is ok though.

And when you do come to your senses and get it done, get the aux belt AND the cambelt kit changed, if your just going to change the rubber belt then you may aswell spend the money down the pub/ go on holiday with it! And LOL @ rubber expert dad!

That Ph1 is lovely! Who's is the LY200 and Alfa spider?

^^^^^ low 30's...

I LOVE that! Must of had paint though, that is minty mint!

When I bought the panda there weren't very many 133's on the used car market, plus it was abit cheaper ( I paid £5k for an 07 plate) looking at about £8.5k for an early 133, plus the equipment is better on the Panda (bluetooth and climate as standard). I might have a 133 next though!

I ve just looked that reg up mate and its coming up as a Cat D? Enjoy it mate, looks mint!

My 100hp doesn't have a city button, just a sport button, which incidently I turned on the day I drove off the forecourt (its has remained on ever since!). The Abarths are a nice overall package, the interior is better than a Renaultsport, (handstiched leather dash etc), the blue and me system...

I wouldn't bother with the Monza exhaust, load of marketing guff, its not even stainless steel!

Did they leave any details? AB autos will sort that for you, really good in there and not too far from your work...

Looks great! How did you find Westover salisbury?

Re: new car FIAT Abarth 500 Its a dealer fit option, so you will get the crate and the original bits and bobs.

Im still trying to justify it to myself! If I hadn't bought the westfield then it could have been on the cards... 100hp needs to go though...

The best way :approve: Loads of ball ache though changing cars, even more so if private plates are involved. Im getting itchy feet with the 100hp, i ve had it since March, not because I dislike it (although the ride does my head in some mornings) but because I am potentially going to start...

Im tempted by one of these in March when im bored of the 100hp..

Admiral are now winning with a quote of £550, might try flux tommorrow as i ve got the Westy with them.

I ve just has a quote on my 100hp with DL, £1040! They can do one! I paid about £650 with Bell(end) last year, thats now gone up to £730 on the renewal, even tho 3 of my points have dropped off and I ve got another years NCB! I refuse to pay anymore than £500, its a Fiat Panda FFS!

They should have spotted the postion lamps and the exhaust mount, they wouldn't have checked the braking efficiencies as its only a visual inspection.

2 miles of that was probably wheelspin anyway :rasp:

Did the service receptionist try and stiff you on an oil top up bottle?

I couldn't justify the extra cost for a Caterham, for a Caterham of this spec I estimate you would be looking at £12-15K. I did look at a cheaper one for £9k but that had a wheezy k series 1.4 in it! Yep was on PH for a week or so under the previous owner.

I did one at Thruxton, drove a Mazda 3 MPS, Porsche Cayman, Ferrari F430, didn't redline any of them but once the instructor realised I could drive he let me get on with it, had about 130mph out the 'rarri, was a really good day I thought. You've got to be realistic they not going to let you...

Its an ST170 inlet manifold, ST170 injectors and GSXR750 throttle bodies. Thats good to know, yeah im 5ft 8 and not exactly built.. I fit in it ok but some of my larger mates can't get in it!

It was under £6k, which I guess is alot for a weekend car, but cheap for a Zetec engined Westy..

Yeah wouldn't be much cop in a crash but can it be that much worse though than say an S1 elise?

I wasn't either but the insurance is so cheap for the performance, after that I had to find reasons not to buy it! Panda pics: http://www.cliosport.net/forum/showthread.php?520822-My-100hp&highlight=100hp

Next time im in the area mate... It wouldn't have been much of a spin, upon purchase two problems came to light: 1. Couldn't see over the windscreen! 2. Couldn't reach pedals! The joys of a being a short arse and buying a car with a fixed seat!
