the more i see the Cup, the more I want one. g

i must admit, at idle mine sounds a bit tappety and at about 2.5k, as well. After that it seems ok. Oh well...one year down, two to go... g

I dont understand what you mean. There are about 15 different versions of Clios on sale at the moment? Plus, I bet the Cup costs less to make than the 172 (i maybe wrong about that - sjust a hunch) g

yes, a skip must be marked with cones and flashing lights. If not, the person who placed the skip is liable for injuries/damage it causes to other road users. Count yourself lucky mate - people are killed crashing into those things. g

also, if the Starlet needs a service every 24k, and the Clio every 12k, then the Starlet would win by twelve thousand miles, which is quite a considerable victory if you think about it. g

dash, thats terribly bad manners! You dont toast a Dino, you smile at it and admire it and be content in the knowledge that you probably could toast it. Its like farting in church - no matter how much you want to, its just not on! :D g

nice work, Rob. g

lo Rod. Nah, as I said, if people like them then they should buy them. I just wish theyd think when they say I bought it coz its great for the kids or something and when you ask why is it great for the kids, they sort of go erm, well, you know, erm, the seats come out and the parcel shelf...

Scenic is the most stupid car on the planet. What can you do in a Scenci that you cant do in a hatch or estate car? Oh, Ive remembered - you can alter the height of the parcel shelf. Great. Don;t get me wrong - if people like them, then of course they should buy them. But buy coz you like it...

Ive enjoyed: rust on the tailgate headlight washer balls went south rear washer nozzle pipe disconected itself third brake warning light was replaced that funny luke-warm-start hesitation for a few secs then clears largely, thats it so far. Well, its what i can remember anyway. g

Its probably not the best car in the list, but id have the Leon. g

rob, just say to them: so, just out of interest, what process is involved in colour coding those parts?. If their answer does not contain what you want to hear, panic like a volvo driver changing into third. g

Rob - its blue/gold flip on the Alfa isnt it? Or maybe it is gold/silver. Tom - Cup blue, imho. g

tell you what would make a difference (im being serious now); between each front fog light, and the black grill below the number plate, the bumper is painted body colour. Now, the fog light surround is black, and so of course is the grill below the bumper. If you were to paint that small section...

or, you could heat the original grill to melting point, the slowly feed it through a waffle maker, and only moments later, you will have a 172 grill. Coz I is a genius. g

why not: 1) buy a V6 2) sell it 3) from the profit, give 900 people £50 to enter a raffle to win back 4) erm, buy the car back using £50 from all 900 people and I think Ive ballsed this up somewhere. I now owe 900 people a Clio V6. Oh Sh1t. g

"hello, Im boyracer and Im new here!" two replies. Photos of current and ex g/friends? millions of replies. My new tactic? "Hi, Im Robs ex, and Im new here" ...and sit back and wait. ;) :D g

Rob, you let her go? WEIRDO ALERT, WEIRDO ALERT!! g

thank you!!! Experiment complete. This post will self destruct in...a bit. g

hello baberacer! i wasnt trying to diss you at all, but just to see the response a new boy would get compared to a new lady joining. But my plan is flawed - im not new! :D thank you for recognising that i was only playing :D now cmon everyone, give me a big group welcome!!! g

hello, Im BoyRacer and Im new here. Ive got the same 172 as that clown Scudetto. Oh, silly me, I am him. But Im new and this is an interesting little test. Be kind, be sweet, and eat your greens. :D g

this is what it must be like to be a superstar. Well, sort of. g

rock on Tommy! :D g

in the box to the left of your post, it says: Alfa 156 GTA V6 gone :( so i wondered what had happened to it. (coz I love Alfas; I used to have a GTV6). Hope the Alfa doctor makes the GTA better soon. vrrrrrrRRRRRRROOOOOOOOOOOOOOMMMMMMMMMMM ;) g

31, 11 years NCB, got a Mk2 172, pay £650, I think. Thats with Admiral. g

yes; between then, Porsche and reno co developed the reno 11. Not. :D g

rich, what happened to your Alfa GTA please? g

if not, try Chaters book shop in Isleworth. They specialise in car books plus have massive selection of old car mags (and i do mean old!) g

how about an Alfa 164 3.0 V6 QV? 220bhp, torque steer-tastic but a complete hoot. Havent got a clue what its faster than, but its no slouch. You wont find a nicer honey of an engine for the money, either. g

88 toyota corolla saloon. will never go wrong, and if youre short of dosh you can use it as a cab on the heathrow run. g
