    Colour Regrets

    Was very difficult decision for me between the Flame Red and the Iceberg Silver (too popular) and in the end went for the silver. Was a last minute decision as I saw both 172s next to each other at Renault and decided it HAD to be silver. Have seen the red and a few times had second thought...

    Golf VR6 v’s 16v

    Well, i raced a VR6 on the motorway - 80-!25 and I must say that there was not a lot in it - id have to say he was the quicker but you wouldnt have noticed it really as he couldnt pull away (maybe a tinsy tiny bit). I did have a full car to (boot full of books and back seats piled high)

    Crack in windscreen - should I replace it

    I looked through my docs but didnt notice anything about the windscreen cover :( But my insurance (elephant.co.uk) says this: Q: How do I make a windscreen claim? A: Windscreen cover is only available on Comprehensive cover. You can call our approved repairer (RAC Auto...

    M3s are quite quick aren’t they

    Rob, no idea what all the Es are about, all I know was it was an S reg and had an M3 badge - too dark to see anything else. As for playing, I,m not sure, it seemed that he pulled away both times when I went into 5th, this would be hard to achieve it "playing". Maybe it was just a powerful BMW...

    M3s are quite quick aren’t they

    Had a play with an M3 on the way home last night, had a couple of goes (me behind and him infront) from about 80 to !25 ish. I was with it from 80-!15 (4th gear range) but as soon as I had to slip it into 5th the M3 just left me! I know the clio is only a small car and only a 2ltr, but I was...

    Crack in windscreen - should I replace it

    Last night coming home down the M40, a huge stone was thrown up and smacked my windscreen (luckily in the bottom passenger corner) but has made a inch square crack and the glass it chipped away. Should I leave this or get it replaced? If so, do it on insurance or not? Any advice from anyone...

    rite, ok tell the truth now

    I "raced" a VR6 on the motorway (M5 i think) a few weeks back, although there was nothing in it I would say he was a little quicker, this was from about 80-!25. Unfortunately I did have a completely full car, boot fully loaded with books, back seats covered in stuff and a pretty heavy tank (but...

    Where is your post

    LOL, females dont drive like that in fog - females cant drive in fog, its too difficult. Sorry, not usually sexist but I do hate other people being blatently(sp?) sexist.

    I’m totally pissed off.......

    My recommendation - Dont buy the car! Even if you win and get the prices you originally agreed, youll still feel bitter about the whole experience and not enjoy the car as much (and even possibly blame it) so go somewhere else, get another deal and get a great car!

    Problems with auto-lights

    Yeah I do but wasnt at home when posted. The settin in the stereo is probably to set the sensitivity of the loudness control - ie, when driving on motorways the stereo automatically gets louder and when you slow down it drops again - good for stopping those mornings getting into the car and...
