Ill race you in ours Mike, that way, neither of us get beaten by a Corsa!!! :D and hopefully neither of us will look too much of a tw*t either!! (well no more than I normally do anyway!!!) :p
when we asked about the price of the fronts when we first got it, the only tyre you could buy was the Michelin, it is the only car they make that size for, and we were told it would be £400 a tyre!!!!
thank god that wasnt the case by the time we came to replace one !!!
rears shouldnt be as...
25 mpg is about right over all on the 255 - weve done neraly 18k in ours now, and that is pretty much a good average, and the car does short runs, motorway runs, town stuff (London).
Tyres - we put one on the front (had a bulge in the original) - cost of £155.
Brake pads we have a...
check the policy details carefully - I took insurance through greenlight for the Vee - said it was garaged at night (which it is !!) and when the policy came through it stated that if the car was on the drive between the hours of 10.00pm and 6.00am it WAS NOT insured!!! It had to be either off...
I wish Id driven the Megane 225 at Bedford now to see - instead I took the liberty of thrashing a Renault owned Vee round to see how much quicker it was than ours - which of course it was, because I thrashed it more than I thrash ours!!!
as above, looking at figures it clearly isnt quicker...
b******s!!!! I would kill someone if they took ours!!!
the only time the keys dont go upstairs to the bedside table is if I am on my own - then they can have the car rather than come looking for the keys in the bedroom!!! but never leave them so they can be seen
but why the hell should we...
unfortunately you cannot do that - if you dont declare the claim, even though it is a no-blame claim - they will have it on the insurance database and will quote it back at you - as they did with me recently after some tw*t hit me. I have no blame whatsoever, but still aint been paid back by...
no touch up paint available for black-gold yet Im afraid. Paint code is on here somewhere if you do a search, and apparently from the paint code a paint shop can mix the colour, but no touch-up yet!
our dci is the 80 one, and hubby gets over 60mpg from it (I drive it a bit like I drive the Vee - or try to !!!! so I get a bit less than that) - but still always high 50s
where is Jeremy when I need him, Im outnumbered until he shows to prove that black is the fastest colour !!! JT - where are you?????????? :)
although I think having a black diesel as well proves my point doesnt it!?!?!? ;)
attention is manic! I drive ours in and out of London, and get a lot of "looks" in the slow traffic. Most of the attention is in a good way tho - although it does sometimes encourage people to drive like tits, like to catch up on a relatively busy road to have a look etc!!
However, have had...
I get more or less constant 25 mpg out of ours, that includes in and out of London, and motorway driving.
havent actually managed to put much over £50 in one tank yet - thats Optimax at 89.9p !!!!
