Going to have a look a it still tomorrow, may not be px'ing it with the Audi though unless he shaves a 'reasonable' amount off the price of his car if the dephaser is shot.

No totally agre with you, seller didnt say about the noise until I called the second time.

Just spoken to the chap, from what he was explaining it has 'noisy hydraulic tappets' which in reality means the dephaser's on the way out. He explained that its tappy on idle however over 1300rpm the noise goes away which as said screams out dephaser. So possibly not much of a good deal now...

Well yeah that's at least a £100 in his pocket you've taken off him from the car. I'm not too fussed about mileage, not looking to break it for spares and if anything goes on it I can source bits relatively cheap for it anyways.

Possible px with one of my cars chap, having just got off the phone to him he knows that its a very competitive price and wont be budging a lot. Still the ideal sort of car for me!

Heading over there tomorrow to view it.

For Roy and Turkish - This is exactly my point, so many other variables that factor in with driving, which makes winter tyres look rather insignificant now to me. But I'm not telling people to not get them, I'm just saying for mine and Daniels circumstances they aren't that worthwhile. Not a...

I'm not forgetting that they offer more grip in the dry in cold conditions at all. Lets try to be sensible for goodness sake... What I'm saying is there's people that aren't driving to the conditions regardless of the time of year/conditions, a lot of people do but there's people who think that...

Pretty strong opinion, surely teaching people to drive accordingly to the conditions also would be beneficial? Coupled with winter tyres would probably make things a hell of a lot smoother/easier on the roads and bring accidents down. The problem I see with winter tyres is that some people...

I won't be getting any for my Audi, granted they may well work better but I've done just fine when I've had to use the car since I've been driving. So I can see Daniels point as well as the winter tyre guys. It all comes down to what you'll be using the car for, where you live etc etc. People...

Some awesome cars out there, but cant believe that saw a couple of shite VW Golfs in there! Why?

Lol too easy! ;) P.s. Even Gally fell for it! Lol In truth I couldn't care if people think what I drive is horrible/gay/family orientated, 313bhp and 272lb/ft of torque from N/A with a great chassis is what makes me happy!

Had to sell my clio as the gf thought they were gay...

Surely with softer rears to medium fronts that's going to have the potential to make it understeer more?

Going to have to upload some of this years Lemans videos I feel...

Awesome car with an awesome colour, imho dont ruin it with stupid aftermarket wheels. As much as I like the wheels in Fletchers picture, just doesnt work on them, porbably as i'm a purist with cars like these.

Given the diversity of Cliosport of late, I'm disappointed by your ageism. :( You old b*****d! ;) xxx

Lol! Nick Herbert, Cutting the bullshit and getting to the point since 1988. ;) Xxx

Oi you! Pipe down en all! ;)

Didn't mean to be so aggressive John, apologies. But obviously I dislike paying for other people to play football. But I wouldn't lie about the guys shooting off without paying, hopefully Dave will be able to shed a bit of light on how bad they can be.

Jon, what will you be running on the rollers?

Just make sure they pay up rather than f**king off everyweek without please John, the last couple of times Daves taken a big hit and the rest of us have had to chip in more. Not really on if im honest...

I'm in with the ///M! 1. Nick172Cup 2. 3. 4. 5. 6. 7. 8. 9. 10. 11. 12. 13. 14. 15. 16. 17. 18. 19. 20.

Nah he didn't have any warning lights out with the injector problem, best bet is getting it plugged into an Rstuner/CLIP etc and should tell you what's going on. Nick

Ah right lol, my misunderstanding! Thought you were talking about revving a clio to that, was gunna say your mad! But with V-tec that's alright! ;)

8,300rpm? :s

Does it come and go running on 3 cylinders? If so could possibly an injector. Coincidently Ollie off here recently put some tesco 99 fuel in his cup and after changing a few things it was an injector that failed.

Phil - You havent properly read what i've said, so i'm not going to bother anymore as i've wasted my time...

Phil you really need to take a step back.... The reason why everything you and others say I come at you for is primarily that in the 'real' world most of the stuff you lot talk about in theory is correct however at the end of the day is all for a bloody sub 200bhp Clio! Having spent a lot of...

Things it's not you that's been left out of pocket is it! I spoke to the Royal Mail, said you have to fill out a form to claim the money back. This was explained to you as the seller has to do it, you acknowledged this yet nothing was done in the end. Yes it was fraudulently signed for by the...
