DOESNT f**kING RATTLE!!!
Usually I dont mind too much with the radio on but I forgot the cd player tonight and on the way home it just drove me so insane - so mad infact I just wanted to crash it in a ditch there and then..
So far the ones that I know of that do my head in are (Especially) a...
I love mk1s - could quite easily get another newer clio but to be honest I dont like them all that much (apart from racing blue 182s).
Just been to the scrappy and picked up a few bits for the valver - or at least tried to - no-one holds them anymore - there were 10 mk2s to every rn/rt on...
Aye, heh its a good little roundabout is that - especially coming back over the tops from bolton at night - it is slightly concerning though that I can get round it quicker in the work van than the valver - somethings not inspiring confidence in the beast!
The mk1 matey - I wanted a silver mk1 172 - the willy wheels just bolt straight on - woul look good nice and low I reckon!
infact I feel a photoshop coming on...
Starting "project refudge" next week - where I attempt to refurb my now spare shockingly bad condition phase 2s into the similar sl*gesque above...
....bet you all cant wait! :sick:
OOoo yes get those pics up - Love this car, really really like the black 172s too.
Infact when I was thinking of getting a 172 I was going to get the same colour as you and transfer my silver willy wheels onto it - Dont know of anyone whod done that yet. :D
aye phase 1 valver - you can juts make out the old 16v badge next to the clio and its got the b pillar badges too - what a shame! I cant actually see anthing that looks salvageable either - at least let others sort there cars out if your gonna kill a classic!
christ! well thats stopped the idea of getting rid of the valver right in its tracks!
What kind of performance drop would there be if the 1.8 block was used as a starting point? i know a megane head would be needed to fit the boddies but will it still make 200bhp?
I thought the valver came in a better overall package when i test drove the gti - both same price and the valver was in worse condition but I bought it as it was better - its just that darn engine they have in the 106 its so easy to get power from!
yeh i started mine this morning after not using it for 10 days as ive been away and it sounded like a clock on speed!
Never known another car that moans at you so much if you dont use it everyday, anything you do its "no dont brake - ow" "no dont change gear its too sore" "what 3K+ rpm? your...
I was gonna say that but it doesnt work really!
in a few months itll be "yeh mines standard - only got alloys lowered exhaust turbo its pink had ferrari headlights and lambo doors with a zonda spoiler... so yeh its standard!"
Thats a f**king outrage, Id have marched straight round there and let loose the "Talbot Temper!" heh, only comes out at very extreme situations..
Gutted for the car, I really liked what you had done with it - must admit I even pondered getting one and doing a bit of a carbon copy (eh eh eh eh...
agree with the willy track - my next mod - fill out those arches nicely with the willys on..
Oh and mate thats nothing you want to see the front end of mine! its more white than red with all the chips!
