    Broken 172 cambelt

    I would go for it m8, as said if its documented as well all the better, I'd find that sort of honesty encouraging when buying a car :approve: My housemate is buyin your vee :cool: our driveway is gonna look mad:rasp: will look sweet next to my valver (which is absolutely immaculate...

    Early MOT, if it fails, can I still run out last years?

    You should be ok, if the police etc do a check it will come up as showing a valid mot until the date it runs out. But be careful as there can still be things wrong with the car that can incur penalty points & fines dodgy tyres/brakes or even no water in the washer bottle if the weather is dodgy

    I love my car!!!

    I love my car as well :D It's always really satifying to give your motor a good thrashin especially when its something capable and rewarding. My valver probably isn't as fast or as capable as a 17poo but by christ it's rewarding and soooo much fun :rasp: Gotta love lifting off on...

    right gear for corner?

    2nd all the time ;) Makes it more interesting after lifting off, keep the back end out a little longer with less opposite lock and then bring it back in line with the loud pedal:rasp: I can do the theory ok, but the practical aint my strongest point :o lol!

  16. 16v_paddy

    what to do ?? hmmm

    If I was in your position I'd go for the williams 3, thats just personal preference. For that money you can get a really clean williams 1, 2 or 3 As for ph1 172, good car but no more or less reliable than a mk, they're all french heaps of sh1t that will go wrong at some point, you just get on...

    Difference between 1.8 16v and RSI??

    The RSI's have relly nice sideskirts that the valver's don't although I've rectified that problem on mine ;) (thanks diamondgeezer!) Not 100% sure but I think valvers have a wider front and rear track than the RSI as well

    Very Naughty Boy/A Bad Omen!?
