Does anyone want to buy this?? Lol I've just been offered my old car back and I have no need for 4 daily's... I will sell it very cheap to a CS member!

Your rust is very uncommon though no? Mine is on 176k and still on original paint on every panel and there is not one spot of it anywhere. With regards to the wheels, I put a wanted ad up on the Merc Facebook page and they all told me to steer clear. Maybe it's just exaggerated on the...

My car before this was a Fabia VRS actually! Lol I wouldn't do a track day in this like I did in the Fabia though...

They're all reliable mate. I only bought this as it was a cheap px that came in at work. On a recent trip to Exeter it did 30mpg on thevway down. (90mph, 4 blokes, luggage and beer) On the way back we were incredibly hungover so I was doing 65-70 and had no beer in the boot, it was reading...

Still broken too?

How's your clio mate?

We'd coin it in. With my patter and your Mediterranean skin we'd have them queuing up at the local Witherspoons.

The colour makes it. 100% best colour they came in. And the engine. OH THE ENGINE!

I've genuinely had that. Lots. (Not Watford though...)

Just as good. I had a 320 petrol before this (borrowed off a friend, same spec and colour too!) and the mpg was more or less the same. But I did drive it like a granny as it wasn't mine and we agreed on a bend it/buy it deal.

No mate. It was an option on this model but standard on the estates. They're bullet proof. On the Merc club I'm on, there's plenty on there with 300k+. Mines barely run in! This age and mileage are around £2500-£3000. He was a honky the bloke that had it before. Just commuted a long way! Lol...

55 profile tyres and soft floaty suspension FTW!

The Coupe is going nowhere! I was on the hunt for the 18's but every man and his dog has complained that they are made of cheese and buckle/split really easily so I decided against it. The do look so much better on them though.

These W211's don't rust mate. At all.

I've had this ages (for me) so thought I'd stick some pictures up after a quick wash and Hoover after work tonight. 176,000 miles and looks/drives like it's done 20,000 miles. It's bloody lovely. It's the older straight 6 engine and 5 speed auto as opposed to the newer V6 and 7 speed, but...

A gentle bit of heat free'd mine off when I last fitted them.

Wtf??

From what the OP is saying, the painter made him aware before he painted it? I'm not really sure what taking it back will achieve other than the painter saying "I told you so" and shrugging his shoulders. (Apologies if I've got the wrong end of the stick)

That's fucked mate. You can either live with it or bite the bullet and put a new roof on it. Sadly, the roof is a massive flexible panel and the filler will not like moving, hence the cracking.

Take a big pack of thick cable ties. If it's the cars first hiding on track, you can guarantee something will break.

Welcome to the club mate.

Please change those sidelight bulbs before any more kittens die.

Awesome.

800?! f**k me.

Me personally I'd just sell it as it is. It's unlikely you'll get the £600 back and most jo public don't even know what a cambelt is.

This is Cliosport.net, where people will ignore perfectly logical and sound advice and instead would prefer to bodge up by jamming in 10p resistors into electrical connectors.

Leave the dash and the door cards in. They weigh f**k all and removing them makes living with the car a pain in the ass. Seats weigh a ton so bin them. Carpets, sound deadening and the tar on the bodywork all weighs a load so bin all that too. Remove both front airbags and fit a lighter...

Your stance needs some work mate. Front needs about 10 degrees of Neg camber from where it currently sits and the rear wheels need to be spaced out more. Welcome to the forum though, I look forward to the progress pics.

There was a dog c**k red one at a car show on Sunday, parked next to a dark metallic blue one. The blue one looked like a 2.0tdi in comparison. The bright red worked so well with the black grilles etc and looked f**king badass. And I hate Audi's!
