Im in the opposite position wishing to trade up as im getting paid more so can afford higher personal loan payments. However selling it is another thing, youd think it would be easy at 9.5k for a few months old 3000 mile example. Clio sport is the car i will probably come back to though when...
Dont know about fifth gears competance in reviewing. They pitted an evo tuned for reliability against a car that wouldnt make it through one track day. An ecu mod would have made it an even match.
When i test drove the type-r it didnt feel as nimble or as chuckleable or as planted at high...
Ive been lucky because I never had any major problems with my 172 and no problems yet with the 182. Unsure a skoda is a viable alternative unless I was over 60 then i would be more inclined to think about reliability etc and less inclined to think about how people would percieve me driving an...
Does ESP cut in on the sly with no indication via the warning sign on the dash?
I ask because these hot sunny days ive been driving ESP off and the car seems quicker. Or i suppose it could be the psychological effect at play.
Im ashamed to admit I had a new shape beetle and the dealers were bloody rubbish, as was the car. Took it in for one thing came out with somethingelse wrong. One dealer even broke the radio fixing removing the dash and blamed it on the car being an eu import thus i had to pay for their negligence.
Class choice of car v6. I think it has the same sought of presence as the escort cosworth, definately worth more than the sum of its parts. There is certainly something really special about it. I want one real bad.
After test driving one I want a new v6 255 bad, doesnt matter what colour even put my cup up for sale. Problem is all the dealers seem to be asking 26k for them which is a personal loan i wont entertain, 20k maybe.
If my cars worth £5000 after 3 years ill be happy as its not like its a huge loss in the scheme of things and the car makes up for it in enjoyment it gives. Think about owners of mitsibishi evolutions 8s, ten thousand pound depreciation in a year and perhaps more now the evolution 9 is out.
1st March 2005. From 600 to 1200 miles it felt rubbish started to ask myself whether id made a bad decision. Now at 2500 miles its flying. Passengers are scared sh*tless.
