Hate all Alfas with a passion.....I know some love the looks of the GTV but Im not too impressed! 172 MK2......hmmmmm not bad motors, but youd have to be an idiot to buy one of those! ;) Im cheesed of cos I cant find any 17" wheels that I think would improve the look of the car so was...

LOL :confused:

OK then so what else would you buy for 15K? Please do not include CTR or Clio Cup in this list or even the Cupra R. Drove one 2 weeks ago and it was a bit of a disapointment!!!

Anyone know when this car is gonna be available? Thought it was gonna be March!!

FunkyASFunk - Are they 17s they look like it!?

£130 is how much they are........quite a lot for a bit of plastic!!!!

dogmaul - got any pics of your motor then?

These are the wheels that I am considering.... http://www.performancealloys.com/uploadedimages/330_0.jpg They only come in 7.5 * 17 and not 7 * 17.

Great, what offset are they? And out of interest what wheels are they and what size tyres?

...or will there be problems?

Craggy - How much do you weigh, must be about 2 stone! ;)

24000 mile service and I think at my local dealer it was about £180 more than a 12000 mile service but not as much as a 36000 mile service. Dont take that as gospel though!

chris172 - £61 + Delivery mailto:m@thew">m@thew - not yet! geoff_clio172 - I was under the impression that the MK1 was the same as the Mk2, I may be wrong though.

You have to remember the CTR is made in the UK and as a result hasnt been as reliable as other Honda Jap made cars

Yep thats the one!

EXACTLY!! But the trouble is a lot of people are stupid and believe the crap that dealers feed them. Cars are expensive in this country because the Manufacturers know they can charge over the odds as most of the british public are prepared to pay. If everyone bought an imported car the the...

If you go to http://www.renault.co.ukwww.renault.co.uk and loot at the technical details of the clio you can compare the 172 and Cup, they both have the same 172 on the left and cup on the right Front Disks (Diameter mm) 280 280 Rear Drum (Diameter mm) 228 - Rear Disks...

Dont suppose they are the same as the ones on the back the current Performance GTI mag, they are very nice to......just dont know what they are!!

I thought they both had the same brakes??

No news. Though JustMatz did say that it would take 28 days, I ordered them on the 18th so may take another couple of weeks. Why are you wating for 2 people?

Utter crap! :@ Its people who are prepared to pay over the odds for UK cars rather than looking for the best deal that make this country one of the most expensive to live. I fpeople stopped buying them then the prices would have to fall......problem solved!!!

Point im making is some people are stupid and believe what the dealers tell them. Others, like most of the people on this forum can think for themselves and make out own minds up...without all the dealer bullsh!t!!!

A question to you then. If the UK car had scrubbed wheels and a slight dint in the door and the import was imacculate. Which one would you chose?? You would simply chose the one that was in the best condition!!
