Put the wheels on eBay and buy some 15's mate. I had to borrow some for a week and I honestly cannot express how bad they made the car.
As for the engine problem, as said, could be looooads of things. Does it still rev? Limit should be 7,200.
Goodness me. I thought that was real too.
I need that in my life.... Where did you get them?
Edit: I didn't notice what is clearly your table and wall in picture7 lol. Quite embarrassing now.
It's literally the same car. Very minor differences between them. No difference in the driving experience or reliability. Honestly, the decision between them is 'which exhaust do I like best?'
A 182 for £3k will be a proper shitter.
Why are people so concerned about the car being newer? A 172 that's 6 months older will be a whole lot less money and virtually the same car.
Twingo, 2 days?! That's what worries me.... I would have to get them repainted again.
Out of interest though.... Are they powdercoated or sprayed? Did you do them yourself?
I really like the RB and orange... Think the mondial will look even better being a darker blue.
I might see how much it's going to cost, if it's cheap enough I'll give it a go.
I like the anthracite, but it's a bit boring... Think clio's suit the lairy 'track look' better.
It'll need some lows (even more than it does already) but I think I like it too. A bit concerned that I might get bored and hate it though.
I think with a few matching orange bits it'll look good.
Ask one of the traders to send you confirmation that it needs doing. Gives you some leverage with the seller. He may genuinely believe it doesn't need doing.
It will settle, but only 5mm or so. Certainly shouldn't be higher than it was before! Pictures of how you fitted the springs and the height of the car would be fine.
Legend! Only 1 post and you've already made yourself useful! :) thanks mate.
Cheers bud, they're pretty similar wheels so got an idea. Glad to hear you didn't go for it though!
It's near portsmouth, will be a huge meet though so well worth the drive.
If you have a look through this section, there's a few meets coming up in the next couple of weeks. I'll probably be at all of them.
