Get a Ford Mustang, they're extremely cheap over there :D

Yeah my brakes tend to stick when the cars been left, normally in wet conditions. I've got discs all round though. I've resorted to not putting my handbrake on tighlty at all, but you could probably push my car with the handbrake on the amount I actually leave it on in order for the brakes not...

Keep it standard. Black ones over lexus style though if that's what you meant by clear.

Have you got them back yet? What are they like?

I think I'd rather have the ff megane for £15k or the megane cup for £14k!

Do you guys with turinis not find them a bit awkward to clean cos they've got that lip thing an inch back or so? It looks likeit'd be difficult getting right into all those corners on all those spokes on four wheels. :(

At least you can make milkshake in the engine bay.

This tick over problem may be the lumpy idle that people on here are regularly talking about.

Alright, I said value. I'd have been more accurate in wording it "I think my car would sell for £5500". I think it should be worth more than that but people just won't pay it for 172's. This has been the case for about 12 months and I don't know if they've just taken a permanent hit for some...

I edited my post cos while I would not bother spending that amount of money on modifying a megane, I can understand how some people do like to mod cars and are happy to spend the extra to be different.

I KNOW! that's why I haven't sold my car cos although really I want to get rid of it, I'm not selling it for a silly price like that!

Buy a 2.0 litre meggy? EDIT: The coupe is available as a 2.0. He could get one of those and do mods to get a good performance gain. If he really wants a fast meggy that much. It all starts to get very cost ineffective though. It's only worth it if he wants to keep the car for a long, long...

Alright alright, I didn't ask for all the sarky comments. I'm well aware of how little 172's are selling for which was kind of my original point. I'd say 4k is taking it a little too far tho. It's only an '03.

I was assuming it's ph2. OK so it seems CS is the best place for a quote, how much is mine worth? 03 FF 172 Flame red FRSH, 12 months Mot, 9 months tax 42k miles renault colour sat nav I'd value it at around £5500. What do you think then?

Just buy a 172 as they're so cheap now. Plus you could have trouble selling your meggy with a enengine conversion. I bet that £2k doesn't include about £1k for a 172 engine either.

My car doesn't pull well after 130mph if that makes you feel better. No car pulls well in it's last 10% before max speed unless it's electronically limited (like some cars to 155mph). Don't waste your money. Save your pennies, wait a while and get a car with a bigger engine.

Mitch, why are you driving a car when you can get a reduced rate of bus travel for over 65's? ;)

If you advertise it at £6500 and get a single call, I'll eat my hat. (telesales companies don't count)

2.0 N/A engine >> 1.6 turbo torque, turbo lag etc "There's no replacement for displacement!"

"Why have a 3 door when you can save £500 and have 5?"

£5000? Advertise at £5250 to get £5k?

I needed a cheap alarm clock, I got one from ASDA for about £3.47. lol

Let's bring on the Bowler Wildcat :D

Why clean the bits you can't see? Do you do it just to stop them corroding?

Are those beetle looking ones based on a 206?

You mean some people actually clean the inside/back of the wheel? :S

Apart from the Meggy "F1", give me break. It looks tacky as fook.

Could be the head gasket. Basically it could be anything that's causing your car to burn oil.

We probably deep down all want it to be rubbish because we don't want our own cars to become "the inferior old model"!

I'd be surprised if it had as much effect as that. 40kgs at it's top speed maybe. The effect of the venturi at the kind of speed you'd be driving on the streets? None...
