I've also thought about getting an original mount and then filling it with silicone. A bit firmer but still some give.

God, it's a f**king dog that you've got to bodge it like this isn't it. I'm in the same boat so I might be following suit if it goes well. The diameter of my exhaust hanger is about 15mm so ill probably go for a 20mm hole and just hope for the best. I've read that there has to be a bit of...

Cheers Jenic, very kind mate. Its all sorted now. I had some polarised locking wheel nuts on order that should have arrived days ago. I need them for the weekend so today was my last chance to receive them. Luckily they have now arrived so problem solved. They look great too actually. Pricey...

Daft question I know. Am I ok with only three wheel nuts on each wheel? I'm not driving the car as such. Just need to move it a few hundred feet. Not gonna do any damage am I?

Boy? What is he 12 years old?

I love the Rallye. If you're looking for a fun 1.6 what about a Fiesta Zetec S? I've never driven a Clio that wasn't a RenaultSport variant - I'm sure they're fun cars - but I know if I had to pick a fun 1.6 it'd be a purple ZS

Parked on Hainsworth Road all the time. Always nice and shiny.

Haha. Oh, right.

Not my car...but I must commend his efforts. There is nothing more fun that throwing your car about in the snow. (I'm assuming it was on snow?!)

Brake lights could just be the little plunger style switch above the brake pedal. Twist it 45 degrees and remove it. All your btake lights should now be illuminated. Pull out the plunger to its full extension. Now put the switch back in its holster by the pedal. You'll just need to play about...

That connects2 thing is about £40. The KTR exhaust was about £400 ish. Can't remember exactly.

Yeah, don't try and have a conversation on a forum, for God's sake. Ive got a connects2 thingy for my stereo and that works well with my iPhone. Keeps things looking standard too. Exhaust wise I've got a KTR stealth on my 172 and that's nice and quiet but still sounds good when you get your...

Sorry to hear it mate. Couldnt you have sorted it out of insurance? Even if it cost you £800 for both vehicles - you would still save in the long run. I guess the horse has bolted on that one though. Yes you may have the option of keeping the car and they may contribute to the repairs...

No, they replace it.

I'd wager your sat nav is wrong.

I'd avoid it mate. They look garbage.

Ahh, so the sidewall is a percentage of the width - which will of course change the circumference. I was just about to berate anyone who argued there would be a difference in speed - but yes, there would be a small difference. Interesting.

I insist you do a great big dump right on his driveway. What a sad act!

32?! I was honestly expecting an 18 year old. Jesus mate, wash it when it's dirty - and even then do the absolute bare minimum.

You can't miss it. Open the bonnet and there should be a yellow sticker opposite your manhood.

Just get it booked in regardless if you have a letter or not. I've had a 172 and a Trophy done in the last year without a letter for either. It's your one opportunity to get 'summat for nowt' at the dealers.

Ahh, not me then.

How dare anyone attempt to raise a topic that has already been discussed. BURN HIM

Where in Wakey?

I might join you at Little Chef if that's ok guys. The last time I was there I was about 10 years old and I was sick everywhere. There's a good chance they're still after me, so ill be the one circling the perimeter of the car park.

Ha. No, I didn't really folks. It's a shame though - some poor muppet is going to pay a lot of money for a shed. It does actually look decent to the untrained eye.

I just bought this, it's spot on. What's the problem?

Maybe, but a good 182 should fetch £3k. I will, however, be preserving my mental capacity by maintaining my self-imposed 5th gear/Top Gear embargo.

Get home ok bud?

Or get him to knock down the price if the belts havent been done. I dont think its a case of what others have done to their car first. If your car needs an exhaust then get an exhaust.
