I bought a 172 this evening, anyone else in the midlands?

Thanks! Got any tips for driving, I noticed it doesnt roll like my 1.2 when going round corners.

Try directline now the lady I spoke to was really helpful. Dont know what time they close.

172 cup? I am a bit of a newbie, all I know is it handles really well, fast as f**k, and comfortable.

really, or are you pulling me leg? I thought 1.2 had about 80. What can the 172 actually do?

I have done a mock quote on directline 1yr ncb, and 1 year driving. Fully comp at 1377. Is this good? Also, as I am currently with directline they say I will be getting 2yrs no claims discount when my 1 year runs out on sep 24. I have had to pay 120 for 1 month before I can do this, but in my...

I went for a test drive today in a 172, could not resist it and agreed to buy there and then. Goodbye 1.2, hello 172 and climate control! oh and a couple more horses as well.

what sort of price do you think i can get it for, they say it will be higher if i part ex. i would like to try for 8000 or less.

hi, the plate is bg53 juc

i am sure the guy said it was a 182, i will double check.if it is a 172 is it is still a good price? i am just trying to figure out how cheeky i can be when talking prices.

What would a good dealer price be? Seen one for 9000, would I be able to bargain the dealer down? Has 17,000 on clock.

what power steering fluid do I use in my 2001 clio, please? cheers, David.

I bought my phone xda iis with tomtom 5, its a pocket pc as well. This cost me £280 with a 1GB card. A cradle and wired tomtom gps reciever added £72. I sold my old sat nav and phone and actually made money by upgrading. So i think an XDA is the best way to go.

Just had a thought, check all connections for left side of amp, any splits in the cable where bare +ve and -ve cables are nearly touching can act as capacitor, hence your problem gets worse the more you use it. Or just check all connections? could have rattled a few sockets out?

You say it gets worse the more you use it. Will be something to do with a charge build up in the system. Cant say anything more definite than that. Have you changed any of the electrics?

confused is rubbish, try http://www.insuresupermarket.comwww.insuresupermarket.com they probably add on a bit, but these quotes are more realistic.

I am trying to hook up a 12V cigerette socket to the fusebox to hide away behind dash for a sat nav install. Anybody done this before? Also does the battery drain if you leave something plugged in or is it isolated and present no load to the battery when ignition is off?

tomtom 5 is good, but I found typing in addresses is a pain on my xda, I have to use the slide out keyboard. Does anyone know how to find the on screen keyboard?

I havent stuck any alloys on my car before, what numbers do I have to use and what do I need. So far I have seen that I need to know the offset/PCD. I wanna stick 17s on a 2001 1.2 clio grande, any help would be greatly appreciated. Also, whats the best insurer for a 1yearNCD and alloys,tints?

pmsl , thats so funny. who would want that?

yep, i think black would look really cool.

How much does the paint usually cost?

I want people opinions on what colour alloys would look good on my 1.2 clio. Its all standard at the moment with metallic blue paint. I am gonna start with the alloys when I renew the insurance. I want multispoke alloys, and the girlfriend (artist) thinks orange, lime green or yellow? I...
