I had the same van for a couple of years - I thought it was great compared to the tranny connect I had.

The 172 I bought years ago was put up for sale by a woman who had just spent over £1000 repairing the head after the belt had snapped, the garage who rebuilt it put waaaaay too much oil in it and it went pop again only a few days in my ownership - hence new engine for me :)

I'll swap you for mine, you'd be losing hard there - don't want to ruin a good run ;)

Do you make money/lose money overall? I'm curious as I seem to hold on to cars too long probably due to the fear factor, if I find a decent one I keep hold until it stars to go wrong!

I wish people would stop taking pictures of nice cups, I've ALWAYS wanted one for some reason, from when they were brand new - it's weird!

OOoooo she got you a green Corsa? :)

I agree the colour makes it. That colour would look good on a Megane!

You're right about paint, but for many people they won't even get that far down the advert, they see the mileage and scroll on past sadly.

The wheels really let it down, it's one of the worst designs they did on the Mk3!

I've been to plenty of 'shops, and they have never rectified anything to a decent standard if it was tosh in the first place, so for me I can see this not ending well!

^^^^ That paint is utter w**k!

They look like pants Halfords specials!

Still no HDR in the update?

Why did you even buy something so old? it must have cost more than a mk2! Get rid, get a better car in the first place.

Daily mods? Petrol, working heater, good stereo!

Naaa 99% of the time it just works - the latest update has solved my recording issues. Although I rewound a program this morning and it refused to stop doing it - just kept going, had to power it off!

It feels a million years ago seeing this blasting round Blackburn! It only had a cup engine back then, and I was still in a Mk1!

There is genuine and skoda, NO (I SAID NO!) others look any good. I know the genuine ones cost a bomb but they look so right! Don't know how much they are but mine was well into 3 figures when I got it.

Do not touch that - at all.....! If it was mine it would have a genuine splitter but that;s just because I prefer them to the skoda one's - despite the cost!

^^^ I doubt I will MP, I only have it as it came with the console! Usually a COD buyer - but I've enjoyed the SP missions so far, although they don't exactly explain what the f**k you're doing half of the time!

I hope it rips when you take it off and you have to spend an hour with sticky label remover and a credit card removing it ;)

Fair enough, if it's not about the money and you're happy to spend 150% of it's value making it your own then it's the car for you obviously :) I'd have gone down the route of the right car with money in my pocket personally.

So you put that sticker on for a giggle, took a picture and then took it of yes? I've got a powerflow one and a spax one at work I think, £3? :)

I'm going to be brutal here, with your description of it and the fact it's a boggo spec one if you paid 4 figures for it then you're doing it wrong!

So I caved and bought a storm grey last Friday. So I now have one downstairs and one upstairs!

Should have had one waiting then ;)

Crumbs this time of night is not the time to start reading this!

Pfft you're all 5 years too late jumping ship!

Oooft that's nice.

If you can make that active and use it as an airbrake then I'm all over it! :)
