    elephant insurance tip

    I am with admiral at the mo, the renewal price was £760 for 10 months. I rang up to see if adding parents made a difference, she said it didnt. So i went with elephants £660 for 10 months. I could have got it down to £500 on norwich union, but i didnt fancy £1000 excess.

    elephant insurance tip

    I know it was posted here before but I thought it was worth posting again. It just saved me about £100 quid. If you are quite young add two older people to you insurance (ie mum and dad) and it actually reduces the premium. Doesnt even seem to matter if they are male or female.

    Overtaking flashers!

    how fast is a 1.2 clio

    On parkers they used to show the 0-60 time for the mk1 ph1 and 2 1.2 clios as about 15 seconds with the newer engined mk1 ph3 clio as 13 seconds. Dont know why they got rid of the older ones.

    TomTom Mobile Opinions

    Its not like I really need navagation, but I was looking at this as a fairly cheap cool gadget to have, as I have a 6600 and it will also be easy to change from car to car. One question I have is that on the website it says the GPS unit comes with a cigarette charger cable. Does anyone know if...

    Sat Nav in Halfords

    This website has very good reviews of Navman and TomTom products, looking at it makes me well tempted by TomTom mobile as i have a 6600. The phone would be outdated before the software though. Only 299 Euros http://www.pocketgps.co.ukhttp://www.pocketgps.co.uk [Edited by Mack on 01 January...

    1.2 8v

    The ph3 mk1 is quite nippy with a more modern engine. Plus its the most reliable of all the clios, past and present, according to this. http://www.reliabilityindex.co.uk/trends2.html?apc=31255524365024524http://www.reliabilityindex.co.uk/trends2.html?apc=31255524365024524

    What have vandals done to yours

    What have vandals, and careless bastads for that matter done to your Clio? In order they happened. I have had these. I live in a nice area too! 1. Cracked rear light when left in shop car park 2. A door that now reads like brail due to all the door marks from uni car park 3. Attempted nickage...

    Tiff in Clio V6 at 3pm

    Mk2, he said it was good but he would rather have a 350z. He would rather have more back out action. He said "so is it a hit or miss? Well lets call it a near hit." Something like that anyway. He mensioned the mk1 and said it had committed a car sin, it looked faster than it went.

    NUMBER PLATES

    I have the same thing, so long as you use the standard font and dont misrepresent they will probably never notice. Just makes it better to look at for the eye.

    Are you safe

    I will never go over 35ish in 30s or 50 in 40s. I would consider myself a calm driver. I dont bother overtaking unless doing under 45 or so in a 60 as it is often pointless (you get stuck behind someone else 2 minutes later) and i know the limit of my 1.2 engine. I also dont start getting all...
