Not quite what you were expecting then! I picked up this last weekend for a very good price as i sold the Zetec S.
Its a 2002 'Pulse' model, tip tronic on 50k, its also got a smartarse stage 2 remap which makes it go abit better, im quite impressed with it.
The running costs are also peanuts.
Hi guys, im currently running about in a Smart car and the paintwork could do with some attention, although nothing too serious as its only a runabout.
I was going to crack the pc out on the metal bits to get the swirls out but can I use the pc on the plastic bits, i.e most of it!?
I was...
After driving around in this for 2 weeks I wanted to drive it off a cliff, fine for someone who doesn't enjoy driving but it has to be the most dull car I have ever owned.
I decided I wanted something fun to drive but cheap to buy and run. This was the obvious choice, its in the best...
Im glad I did, one of her neighbours has swapped his MCS for a Glacier white 197 cup with Recaros. Looks absolutely spot on, first one i ve seen on the road, its got the colour coded mouldings, I think its knocked Nimbus off the top spot for me. Will be sure to flyer it next time im round :)
Would it be possible to fit a 172 bumper onto a 182 and then fit a KTR stealth exhaust or similar. One of the major things putting me off the 182 is the wheel barrow exhausts, I just wondered if there was anyway round this apart from buying a 172 cup ;)
Right my brother dropped his SE V630i over the side of the boat, the insurance have offered him one of the following, which is the best one to get:
V640i
K770i
W880i
Cheers guys,
Just looked out my bedroom window and one of my housemates is cleaning bird s**t off her C3 using a scourer and washing up liquid!! No sign of the two bucked method either! May as well weigh it in now tbh.

Apart from the fact its cheap, misted up front headlight and a clear indicator repeater one side and an amber one the other side!

Very good rep tbh, shame its based on the pish 115hp 2.0 petrol, if that was the 1.9 tdi I would be ringing them up first thing in the morning.
Im not sure if this is the right section..
The Landrover has inevitably marked its territory on Dad's 'bricket' driveway. Whats the best stuff to get it out! I ve tried:
-Cif
-Washing up liquid
-AG Clean wheels!
Its better but its not really shifting, anyone else had this problem with oil...
I went for a walk in the New Forest this afternoon and grabbed a few photos seeing as I cleaned it yesterday.
edit: Sorry only one of the pictures has received and the qualitys gone out the window, you get the idea anyway.
Half an hour ago maybe, I did give you a flash but not sure if you saw me, I was behind the new focus on fairmile road that let you turn right into that road by the fire station, car was looking clean :cool:
This has happened a few times recently once on the bumper of a Ka (I reckon they had been colour coded by hand), the pad went purple, i think this was with a sonus sfx1 pad and menz ip.
The second occasion was when I was getting the oxidization out of the bonnet on the Landy yesterday, I was...
Collected it today been on the lookout for a while, its a late 1991 J plate (has a mint private plate on it though), 106k full service history with masses of receipts, the later better 200tdi lump, highlift kit (Springs and shocks), 4 ton power winch, proper snorkel, huge f**k off wheels and...

Not quick/ exciting etc, but £900 is a good price for that assuming the 'full service history' can verify that mileage.

The state of those front lights look like perhaps the water was deeper than they are letting on.
