I am a Maidstone lad indeed.
As it was quite a nice day just decided to got for a bit of a drive and bumped into you and a few other nice motors.
Does your Mrs give you an ear bashing for driving fast?
Hello mate!! Had to double back to catch up with you. Must admit thought yours looked nice mate. Im getting use to the 182 wheels now. Mines completley standard, theyre the standard cup wheels. I said to my mate who was with me in the car I bet you wish you didnt have your Mrs in the Car...
M3 CSL!! One of my directors in our Luton office who previous had a 360 stadale has just picked up the M3 and knows how much me and one of the other lads in the office is into our cars.
He took me to an appointment about 20 mins away and all I can say is WOW! Pure smooth power, supurb semi...
Im so tempted by this offer at the moment http://www.virgincars.co.uk/newcars2.aspx?CID=16802http://www.virgincars.co.uk/newcars2.aspx?CID=16802
Its not an import either. How can you lose if wanted to keep it for a year and sell it on?
I know what you mean darren. Saw these once on a car after coming out of a club. He was driving slow to avoid hitting people as they were walking about, and we were all bending down spinning his trims!! Classic
I had a cooper (with same suspension set up as the cooper s) before my cup and they do handle well but I would say the clio has more grip. Plus ive had a play (private road) with a hartge cooper s (200hp) and there was nothing in it, so as an overall package the Clio is faster
Get the number for Whitehouse Renalut in Maidstone. The reason found out was cause I was chatting to a guy in a car park with a 172 and hes just got his back from his dealer with a new driveshaft which is a common fault and fixed under warrenty!
I literally spoke to my local dealer an hour or so ago which is in Maidstone (Whitehouse Renault) and their sales guy there spoke to one of his service guys who told him about the recall so it must be true. Dont get fobbed off by your dealer who tells you otherwise.
Hope you get it sorted, Russ
Not sure if this has been posted before but still good for everyone to know.
There is a recall on 172s at the moment. This is due to a knocking sound under accelaration (which I have) which could possibly be the drive shaft or engine mounts.
I would advise you all speak to your local...
