My 172 handbook said less than 5, took over 5 to get right up to full on the dipstick. When should the g/b oil be changed Fred? Mine was done early, once by Renault, but is now on 115k

oh dear,.. throw some £ its way and itll put a smile back on your face

What do Sideways Danny, Fred and the other experts have to say on this? I'd love to hear there input.

That's a great help.

I've just realised my 205.45.16s are rubbing the inner arches on standard 172 alloys. Is it easy to sort? It looks like arch liner has sagged/bowed a bit with s**t collecting behind.

That is a thing of beauty. Heavy, heavy gauge alu?

Woh,.................

They're a bit pricey tho eh?

Maybe I'd be better just buying a used MacBook, when you do the sums I'm gonna be spending close to what I paid for the lappy a few years back. Shame. Thanks for the help!

That's the very same page I read yesterday!

Good links, ta. £150 ish I reckon, can't justify spending more,.. I've heard faster dell CPU's would fit, and really can't see the point in sticking with a 1.4...

...Please. I've got a chunky monkey Dell Vostro 1500 Intel Core 2 Duo 1.4Ghz, 2Gb of RAM and Win7 installation discs. I'd love to throw it away and go and buy a shiny new MBP or MBA but with an expanding wife and baby on the way I've got to refrain. I'm thinking faster CPU, renew the...

Re: Dimma Clio Cosworth That's a little beast. Can't beat a bit of hooligan driving.

Ballache, but fine if you're strapped for cash I believe. Now the glass back, 2 screws and push, 1 min tops.

Think they exchange for a refurb don't they Dan?

I'm happy for you, I can achieve similar mpg but after a while I find it too frustrating and default back to normal, quicker driving. How do you have such restraint?

Sorry Grandad,.. Why did you buy a small car with a big engine again? Mine averages 34mpg. Don't know how many per tank.

106 felt fine for me, 205: Now you're talking! And my last Scirocco, Mk II GT II needed throttle on every bend above 20mph. Clio, not so much.

Over 5 yrs of hard driving and I think I've had lift off oversteer once, warn tyres rain and me being a tit. You live and learn. Man up, these things understeer before anything else, the back is welded to the floor. Learn how to drive before pushing on!

^Coolio. I'm IN!

How long will the clutch take it for?

Mine's done it now and then from day one. I'd rather keep it than swap it for a 'furb. Been there, done that with the 3GS

Looks like an import too mate. Just saying. I bought an import BTW

the handling/ride is compromised with 17s, but if you prefer the look of 17s it's really your call bud

17s ruin the car mate, had them on mine when I bought it. 16s are the way forward. Make sure you get the correct stud pattern and et etc....

Can't help, but LOVING the illustration. My interface between hu and stalk was slightly different, not going through the plug/harness shown above. Sorry.

t**t-mobile. Baseball cap, up-turned T-shirt collars and bum fluff moustache not included.

^This. It's what I did. £169 + 24 x £30.84 is £909 iPhone 4 16Gb is £499 + say 24 Tesco (o2) £10 = £739 over the same period, but obviously you're not tied for 24 months

Sad end to see the thing go on eBay and not sell!

Must have been on something to do that, or just a plain ol' inbred
