I was thinking it would cost less than that, my main concern is letting the idiots of sh*t fit near my car as I don't trust them.
Yellow Pages job I think.
How on earth someone can dismiss a car without actually driving it is totally beyond me :S
I hate new shape mini coopers, but to see if they were like I thought, I drove two of them (one was a mcs too)
I used to think that large tdi cars were pap, until I was given a passat tdi hire car...
Yep, I got 35mpg on my way to a MK meet last year. I filled it up to the brim, reset the computer before leaving the petrol station & got that mpg :eek: The journey involved motorway driving at a steady speed (in sixth gear) plus a bit stuck in some roadworks. I was amazed tbh.
Now it's...
gaz - go & drive a vee, then comment. "Don't rate it but never have driven one" you sound like half the forum who comment but have never driven one tbh.
I'm bored now.
It has a reserve on it & the seller won't divulge what the reserve is, I know as I asked him when he put it on there. The plaque isn't that unheard of as someone over on v6clio said they have their name & 0001 on their plaque :S

The only mk1's with flared arches & wider bumpers are valvers (clio 1.8 16v's) and williams. A fair few mk1s have colour coded bumpers, except for the bottom of the range ones.
Is that what you wanted to know ? As for pics, loads on here, it's worth doing a search really.
Get the paint from halfrauds, or get your local piant place to make it up for you (paint shop would be a better bet tbh)
It may be worth just 'touching up' the chips unless your plannig a respray job on your bonnet etc.
Standard rare phase 1 lights (the plain red ones) can be had really cheaply.
Other than that go for a set of ph2 ones (which imo look a lot better)
The black bit you mention is called a bulb holder. Try ebay for the lights or a scrappy, or put a wanted ad on here.
