What happened mate if you don't mind me asking? I know Steve who has just sold his Trophy is a possible cash buyer for the right R27, he commented as such on another thread.

You're just used to it. My RX7 stopped feeling fast after a while and I wanted more out of it. The fact that it destroyed everything I came across on the road bar a couple tweaked scoobie's and evo's and could overtake long strings of traffic at will seemed to slip by me.
Human nature that we...
as said some phones give option to block numbers but orange mess with the firmware on most of their phones and this is often something that goes in the bin.

In my 172 if I use the cruise control and set it to 70mph the speedo is reading about 72-73mph. Which is more accurate?
Will have to check it against GPS to get a proper idea I guess.
As for cruising past the police at 80-85. That's a bit much to tell the truth. Anything over 75 and you're...
Just bought my PH2 172 for £4k which I thought was a decent price. Looking round though there's 182's for not much more.
There's a noce 172 near me for sale for £3500. Nice stainless exhaust and a carbon BMC intake, still has AA warranty till January 2009 on it as well!

Wow. You've put some time into that post there mate. I shall be bookmarking this.
You're not too far away. Might have to give you a shout when I decide to get into this clean freak business for some direction. Sure there must be some guys/girls in the east mids who'd be up for a day...
I couldn't stretch to a Trophy. There was a guy from here selling his who lives in Loughborough which is only up the road from me,and was up for about £9k but that's more than double what I paid for the 172 and I just couldn't justify it.
Just realised that the ex went from a little old M reg...
Yeah we still get on great. I got to drive the R27 tonight and she sorted out the nando's in Nottingham. Double bonus :D
I wasn't pushing it tonight as it was wet and loads of traffic about so didn't really get chance to compare the brakes, plus mine on the 172 do need doing soon so wouldn't...
Had a go in my ex's R27 tonight. I've now got her old 172.
First impressions are obviously that wow, in LY it really is a lovely looking car.
Jumped in the drivers seat and the seats seriously hug you, probably a little bit tight for me across the top of the back but for the drive tonight I...
Looking good and I'd like some better sounds in mine but I'm worried about adding loads of weight. That MDF install with sub and amps must come in at about 30kg+? Did you weigh any of it going in pal?

Was going to get one but got a blackberry bold instead. well pleased with it. If I was going to get a HTC though I'd get the Touch pro which has same interface as the diamond but benefits of a slide out full qwerty keyboard. Voda now have them on contract.

got my 53 plate 2004 for £4k with 44,000 miles and FSH. Couple minor scuffs but that was it.
Test drove another that was really nice and again FSH and some AA warranty left which was up at £3500. Was on an 02 plate.
cheers

150 from an orange mate,
go through the options and choose the option that you want to leave orange. you will get a much better deal than you will going through upgrades. Fact :)

any questions just ask. Boring as hell compared to the 172 but it's a proper comfy drive for long distance. Cruise along in your leather seat with the tunes on and get out the other end fresh as a daisy :)

tell them you've had a better quote elsewhere and then they will drop it. Insurance company's are like mobile telephone one's they will have your pants down yet hit them with a competitor and they buckle and match it!
