Arent escort cossies just sierra cossie with escort shells? My friend stevieb was telling me the other day. Ill have to ask him about it again.....
Their top end cant be very good due to the big Handbag handle on the boot. I raced a mildy-modded one down the hogs back and was pushing him...
hehe, had to be done and all in good jest ;)
Yeah, they pay all that money for those cars and all we ever want from them is for them to give it some! Ive never seen so many people looking at a car as they did this. If id been walking around town centre naked i think fewer people would have...
Hi cord172 - my car does that and its standard. Brake a little on a fast corner ( i know youre not supposed to but if someone cuts you up...) and the back end starts to overtake. Maybe mines biased wrongly too?
oh dear. Similarish thing happened to a friend of mine. We bought a car as a group project, it was in my housemates name as we were going to sell it to him. Anyway, my housemate was out drinking and we were at home. My other mate (who bought it joint, but whose name it wasnt in) took it for a...
hehe. I hope so, im gonna keep my digi in the car for such reasons. I wonder if i can get myself a decent holder for it?

HAHAHAAAAAAA HAAAA HAAAAA!!!!
Oh dear, oh dear oh dear. This was the best race in the world ive ever had, ever!
I was driving home from Guildford and noticed a black example of this supercar exotica. As the lights went red, my heart began beating (well faster than normal). I looked over...
possibly the coil or lamda sensor?
Mines booked in for:
engine mount under battery
dodgy lamda sensor(?)
suspension leak(?)
gearbox 2nd one.
front passenger seat
Ill report back when theyve found out the problem
Also, my revs take AGES to drop when i rev it, or change gear and the car...
apparently the coils on 172s are renowned for going. Thats what a mechanic at a renault garage told me when i described similar symptoms, but mine was hot. It stalled then stunk of CAT/eggs....
Weeeol, it was quite close.........that was.........until he pressed his accelerator pedal. OH DEAR. That car makes mine look like a 1.0 litre Panda on the motorway. I was flat out in third, full throttle change to fourth and i move over just as my mate sails past not even breaking a sweat...
mines done 28,000 miles and doesnt have any rattles that iv noticed? the seat started to squeek a bit, but then i adjusted it, wiggled it around a bit and now it doesnt at all?
Wax your bonnet removing all flies first (drag again)
Bend wing mirrors inwards, remove aerial.
Remove all fluids including windscreen washer, brake fluid, engine oil and petrol (apart from a tea spoon full for your 1/4 mile), put pumped-up trailor wheels on the back instead of those...
