E sound like a goor idea, either that or return it to standard & sell it, keeping the bits to put on another 172 when i returned.

i dont understand it either, what a bunch of w*nkers.

i have just renewed it on my valver for £414 f/c with elephant, i always thought the excess was £350.00, but as im in age group 21-24 its £450.00 !!! (i opted for a voluntary £250.00 though, the 200.00 is statatury) i cant believe it ! when im 25 the excess goes down to £300.00, weird !

i know this has prob been posted loads of times, but my bulb has blown, its really odd at night not having the temp displayed now. is it a mission to change? what do i have to do?

may be bought it instead of the normal 172 because of the colour? he hasnt ruined it, the wheels & ice can be taken off of it. if hed sprayed it pink that would be adifferent matter.

i heard that of those produced only 10% ish have leather & considering at was a £1000 option im not surprised. does any one have a standard one with it ? mine is, apart from 195 tyres (the previous owner fitted them & i have just replaced them) and a willy gear knob (i do still have the...

tell me about it mate, i was livid, its not majorly (i may be able to do something with it) however its put a slight dent on the swage line of the passenger side arch. the main reason i was annoyed though was that i was sat in it while she did it ! then the had the cheek to deny it (im soo glad...

normally i take two spaces & park away from the other cars (im soo paranoid) however yesterday, i didnt really have a choice, now i know better than to park next to some idiot who doesnt care about their car.

106gti all the way, they handle so well as standard.

yesterday i had to go into romford to run an errand for my folks, so me & my bro went - we parked in the market & my bro goes into the shop while i stay in the car. any ways, the bird in the car next to me returns to her car & i hear bang plus my car shakes (im not driving it- its parked) the...

if it were me, i go & see it for real before bidding on it, photos of cars do not show them in their true light - i have seen many a mint car from pics, yet actually been to see a complete pile of cr*p. my advice, go and look at it first (if it sounds worth viewing)

when i was 21 i paid £1200 f/c with highway, with no ncd & 350.00 excess. thats on a standard valver & just me on the policy. how times change, now im 24 with 3 yrs ncd & its £360.00 f/c !!! sweet.

renault probably dont even know themselves. :p

very rare car, only ever seen one on the road (i can remember whose it was, but they are on here)

if people on here think that this site is crap, why continue to come on here?? if you dont like it dont use it !!!!

what he means is, is it a 2.0 williams lump in a 1.8 16v.

sorry bit i think that valver on borbets looks pants. im not a fan of ronal turbos either really tbh, however Winston you have done a great job on your valver & they look spot on.

book fig on a standard valver is 7.7secs.

it will be a three digit code on the bottom of the vin plate (the metal plate on the panel above the drivers headlight when you open the bonnet)

looking good, i prefer them like that to just plain. looks like you did a good job on them.

god knows what the dude in the elise was doing ? was it a normal mk2 elise? as after 60 they are pants. Tom what did you run the 1/4 in when you had your coupe?

those clarkson photoshops were class.

surely if some one did buy that cup & put it on a set of rollers (not the LAD ones) LAD could be done by trading standards ? as most of their power figures seem to be b*llocks to me !

a lot of work must have gone into it, even the interior alone must have been a huge job.

^that plate would look soo good on one of them !

no disrespect to you, but i must be the only person on here who hates turbines. your car looks lovely, but i just dont like turbines.

i read it form time to time, im a bit annoyed that i missed the one with the v6 buyers guide though, i went to tescos the other week (9th may) & they were already selling junes ! its a very good magazine, i used to love performance car too when that used to be out.

looks nice, but i dont like the rear end though.

I cant believe how much they seem to have dropped as well. mine was up for 4k three years ago ! i paid less than that for it. Mines un modded & its got factory leather too, i have spent loads keeping to a high standard, to theres no way id accept 2k for it ! Im selling it next month, i havent...

adding your mum will always in my experience reduce it, i guess because of her age. another thing, if you tell them you drive another car on a regular basis that will reduce it too - weird i know. I suppose that works that if your driving some thing else theres less change of you smashing your...
