My girlfriend over the years has come to like cars and appreciate the sportier ones, still have problems with her as she wants a pink car, but other than that she is fine. She can now inform me of the cars she has seen via models and engin size rather than by the colour, as she used to. She is...

£6500 is a very good price for the best hot hatch ever made (my opinion). Most are advertised at £8000, not bad for a car that should become a classic.
Glad you are keeping the car and I hope you stick around.

I believe the Captain is against alarms, not just Renaults, as no one takes much notice of them. As long as you have a good immobiliser your car is pretty safe. However, as I believe you are installing extra ICE in yours an alarm would be useful, but why Renaults when you can get much better...

My neigbour owns one on an 02 plate (gets a new one every 4-6 months) and there is almost nothing in it. Playing catch up he could not loose me and I could not catch him, over all pretty even. His TT 225 can pull away from me but only just. Not worth 25K though.

I have to agree I think the MK2 172 is a great looking car with the best front of any car, (my opinion).
I assume it was worth the wait?
I ran mine in for 625 miles, and I have no complaints about performance, so far I have seen off a neighbours S3, had a good go against his TT225, and many...

I assume it is the MK1 V6 that is tested, hense the improvements, handling and bhp to the new V6 as Renault realise that the new cup is as fast in most situations as the V6 for half the money.

I thought about getting a Cup when I was buying my 172, loved the colour of the Cup, but wanted a black car this time, and all of the added creature comforts/ gadgets.
Sub 13k for a new, uk sourced, performance car like the Cup is in my opinion a bargain, especially if you dont want to import...

I have £200 to spend on a rear spoiler for Christmas, I like the ones on the MGZRs, nice but not too MAX Power. What do people suggest?
At the moment I am in favour of the K-Tec Utopia spoiler.
I would greatly appreciate peoples oppinions.
Thanks
Scalped an MG 160, pretty close and they are a good car, never tangled with a 306 though. On paper you have the fastest car, but with the pug and MG it is close enough for the driver abilities to be the deciding factor. Should be fun finding out though.

Has to be the Vanquish, after seeing it up close and sitting inside I fell in love.
A close second is my 172 (Sooty), and the Lamborgini Diablo in black

I killed one on my first driving lesson took its head clean off.
Almost killed one yesterday that ran out on me but had enough time to stop and scare it off the road.
Hope the damage isnt too serious.
