Ive been thinking recently about possibly buying a valver and I have just phoned a guy about one on Autotrader and tbh it sounds quite good. I only have about £1300 to spend so I didnt really expect to find any really good cars but as I say I think this one sound OK and I was hoping some of you...

Thanks freebone Ill have a look at them

Do HIC have a website to get quotes online or does anyone have their number as I did a quick google seach but nothing came up of any use.

I was just hoping someone could advise me as to the best insurer to use in order to get the best quote for valver insurance. The main problem is that I an only 17 would be insuring it under my dads name - which before people start is not so bad as he would be using it for a large part of the...

anyone got any opinion on this car?

The problem I have is that I only have about £1300 to play with just now but that could change depending on a few things. I have just phoned a guy about one on Autotrader and tbh it sounds quite good. It doesnt have FSH but he said that it appears to have been well looked after, it had new...

PMSL!!! Welcome MX. Youll get used to clart and his liking of boys ;)

Could somebody give me an idea of what the most common problems are with valvers and also when things like the cambelt and clutch etc should be replaced in terms of milage. I might be looking at some valvers soon and just wanted to know what things to look out for and what things should have...

like most others have said it just needs a few thing sdone mate. I would remove sunstrip, lexus lights, wiper things and the neons. Then I would lower it, sort the exhaust, colour code it and then maybe a valver bonnet or something. Once that was done I would also change the colur of the...

^^^^^^^^ Fair point - I just looked at the link on Barryboys to the guys website and it shows the car when painted and thing and apart from the chrome mirrors, wipers and lexus lights it looks OK. Not totally to my taste but certainly not worth any abuse over when compare to the other car in...

Loving it!!!

nah I dont think they do Coco. The slowing down isnt very harsh like when you are braking so there isnt really any need.

oh and btw Happy Birthday!!!!

how much have you got to spend? What have you done to the car already?

It will depend on what drop you are going I would imagine. If the rop you are going for might be tight and is gonna need arch work etc then I would leave the alloys on, if its pretty straight forward then you can probably leave steelies on I would think.

Im after a mk1 1.4rt. Im looking for a phase 1 or 2 because I couldnt afford a phase 3 at the moment and I think they ph1 and 2 look better anyway. I have been waiting for quite a while but that is largely down to me having to save money for other things so im pretty low on money just now. Im...

Not a problem mate. What sort of budget have you got?

On the Mk1 clios there are three phases mate. Phases 1 and 2 both had the squarer headlights and the ph3 had more rounded ones (like Carl_RTs car) The phase one and phase two are not very different I dont think, but the main differences were that the phase two has a different front grill and...

I was thinking that myself - but now I think he might mean the rear side window???

Please, please, please go and see him once you have bought a 172 just to rub his face in it. people like that really annoy me but it can be worth it just to prove them wrong and rub their face in it.

Nothing more to say.

How the hell can you get insured on that?

How did you manage that?

you should post this in the wanted section mate, or have a scan through the others for sale section to find some.

I am an aberdeen fan - but I dont live in aberdeen. I live in edinburgh so I dont really get to too many games :( Hopefully a win against celtic today though. As for the car I know its worth waiting its just that im getting really frustrated not having my own car. The 150 miles a week was...

I know what you mean mate but looking on autotrader just now the closest RT to me that I would consider is about 190 miles away - and even at that I dont think its as good as this one I was looking at - which was only about 800 metres from my house, lol. Like you say though as long as Im...

lol, I was just saying to my old man that it wouldnt surprise me if he comes back to me in a few weeks saying the price is back down because I think he was just trying to push the price up to bump more money out of me and now its not worked he doesnt want to come back and say 800 is OK beacuse...

Just what I though mate! It already had a performance exhaust on it but what he said was he had spent £300 on a full system - it was the standard renault one with a performance back box so I cant see it having been that much because he probably used the same back box as he had on before. The...

There are already pics of ur car on the site mattysey. If you look at the post in the for sale section with your car (ian hs at the time) in it you will find the pics. I liked the look of Ian Hs car and it looks like a pretty good car, the one I was looking at was very very similar in terms of...
