    Well today i was told i may never drive

    Keep the physio (and your chin) up. Think positive, remember that doctors usually give worse case scenarios so you can proove them wrong! For now you can get a semi-automatic version (no clutch) of the clio! There was a guy on here just a few days ago with one.

    Why Would You Buy Another Clio.

    I want a vee in a few years. The only thing I'd like as much is the new ford mustang. I think the french have european styling sussed so I've always really liked the look of most renaults, not just the clio, and think their styling gets better with age. The clio (in any year or spec) is a...

    100k but how much further???

    (Id say it uses 1L between services (18k) : This is not a huge amount of oil in what would be considered over a years worth of mileage (the average being 12k) in a little engine. (I had to get my spark plugs changed after the engine was firing on 3 cylinders at around 88k. I never seen...

    Saving to go from 172 to Impreza P1

    Does it have to be a P1? You could just get a wrx, when you pick mates up they all have their own door and dont have to clamber over the recaros to get out and they are still quick / handle well. The other bonus being that the insurance may be cheaper and the car itself certainly will be.

    new car good.

    A bit blunt, but I can see what you are getting at seb. Every time I get into my 2001 RSi it feels like a brand new car compaired to what I was used to driving around in before so I imagine the 'new car' effect of a 2007 car for you feels similar to the feeling I get stepping foot in a 2001 model.

    ^^ Is it possible to change the aux belt without affecting the cambelt?

    opinions...

    Dont know anything about 197's myself but TT's are nice, solidly built cars, they handle a bit on the understeery side though. I think they are a design classic, one of the nicest ones I've seen was a hard top in cream with a black roof and black + chrome euro alloys.

    100k but how much further???

    Your oil (among other things) will be a good indicator of it's condition, like the way a doctor checks your piddle! Check your oil, is it thick and black after roughly 5-10K? Do you have to top up the oil regulary? Is the exhaust coated with thick black soot and the spark plugs caked in...

    Unbelievably peeved!

    He'll still have a 'no fault claim' registered against his insurance (there are about 20 different types of no fault claims) all of which will be on record and can effect your next premium regardless of who's fault it was.

    Unbelievably peeved!

    Forget the childish revenge tricks if you don't value the friendship forget her and move on. If you do want to remain friends she isnt going to pay for the damage you've made if clear you are not happy it's time to move on. You have done everything you can now and she hasn't admitted fault, take...

    Head units USB mp3 type

    I'm after info on the head units above as I dont know much about them myself. Can anyone recommend any make / model where I'll still be able to use the clio steering columb controls for volume etc. I also want one specifically with a usb slot on the front so I just copy tunes onto a 2 gig...

    Unbelievably peeved!

    Gutted, damage to your car and possible rift with good friend I can see why you are miffed. Last summer I decided to take a second job, it was only £5 an hour, doing manual labour. The foreman wouldnt let me park the car on site so I parked on a dodgy side road, 9 hrs of back breaking work...

    Liquid Yellow Mk1 Vee on Pistonheads??

    That Acid yellow is a fantastic colour, Liquid yellow is nice but it kind of reminds me of the colour old (1980's) British Telecom vans used to be pained because it's got an orange hued tint in the pigment and dosent seem to look very reflective. The lime green hue in Acid yellow gives the...

    For those of us who cant afford a Vee.....

    hahahahahaha 'Doom' blue, excellent! You know you're onto a non starter with that color. I think if he had a set of euro split rims to fill the arches out and a decent colour scheme (black) dare I say I think it'd look ok, it would be monstrously underpowered for the way it looks though...

    175MPH IN A NOVA...

    I like this nova simply for the fact that someone would go to the trouble of making a little car like this go so quickly rather than spend their money on a factory spec modern car. I've never owned a nova (I had a less desirable metro) but I have fond memories of all those 80's and early 90's...

    3years of ownership!*LOTS OF PICS*

    Fantastic collection of wheels you've had. I'm really into the euro look also. Could you let me know what the offset is on your green rims?

    Car Dealers???

    I think they'll sort you out without any quibble, it is just an honest mistake. However, giving a car a basic check over is one thing but what consitutes checking it over 100%. The dealer should have checked everything over 100% themselves before they put the thing up for sale. The way I...

    Turbo - my initial opinion

    Impressive machine. Roughly how much is one of these conversions? Was there much work done to the engine, any head work, thicker gaskets fitted, lower compression pistons, anything on the cooling system uprated (oil / air) over standard apart from the charge cooler? What gearbox and...

    Will ET28 15"x7" fit Euro guy's help?

    Cheers, I forgot to mention, it's a MK2 Ph1. The reason I ask is there is a fella on here selling similar fitment wheels in the ad section (but I cant afford £600) he mentions they'll fit straight on a MK2 but his are ET25 not ET28, so now I'm confused. As the ET number gets lower are the...

    Doh Just spotted the title; I'm not asking for a 'fit euro guys help' just help with the wheels ;)

    Will ET28 15"x7" fit Euro guy's help?

    I thinking of going euro. What troubles am I going to face with this fitment, the wheels are ATS cups, (similar to early mercedes slk rims)? I am thinking of perhaps lowering a little 30-40mm (not all the way like a true euro), is this do-able with this size of wheel or am I dreaming...

    My mates garage..

    Envy is not the word!!! I'd love a garage like that, I would buy about half a dozen cars and keep them in top condition / restore them. This might sound sad but my idea of heaven for a weekend is 1:A load of beers, 2:a pizza / curry order, 3:A bunch of mates 4:A wicked sterio hooked up...

    Computer / Electro Music, like it?

    I love it. I grew up with all the old C64 and CPC464 stuff. So I've been looking at a few sites for variouse mp3's of these old school tracks and found this guy who does quite dark dnb c64 style tracks. http://www.shellkonto.nu/xenobioz/phpBB2/viewtopic.php?t=12 Some of his links dont work...
