    newbie

    Not if the belts snap. It would then be a "buy now, buy a new car tomorrow" job. Welcome.

    Upgraded Memory Card (?)

    This was attached to the email - it doesn't actually say how much space you get per card? Maybe I'm being stupid..

    Upgraded Memory Card (?)

    The company I work for, the boss has just bought a bulk selection of Micro SD cards. We have been told these are "expandable" and the capacity varys from 4gb to 32gb. Could someone explain this to me please? I don't understand what determines how much you get from the memory card? Thanks, Lee

    Vital things to check.

    Cheers guys - going to have a read through your post on c197 now Knuckles. I've asked him if he has proof of cambelt change and he said yes, at 52,000 and it's now on 58,000. I'll double check etc.

    Insurance when buying a new vehicle.

    So what you're all saying is I have to view the car, skip home, ring a friend of a friend who knows an insurance broker, ask them to insure me for a day and then not go and buy the car? Cheers guys, don't know where I would be without you.

    Insurance when buying a new vehicle.

    Hi guys, I'm looking to buy a new vehicle on the weekend. I would be travelling 5 hours to see it. Say for example I bought it there and then, how would I go about insurance? Is there a "day insurance" kind of company, enough for me to get it home and then go from there? Cheers

    How serious/costly are these problems?

    That's the problem - I can't find many about - especially in my price range of 5-5000, with 55k or less miles, climate and not red. Haha.

    How serious/costly are these problems?

    The garage have that car back in today and they've said it's the drum stick between the steering rack and the trackrod end and that he's been quoted £26.80 for parts. Sound correct?

    Might sound silly, from where?

    How serious/costly are these problems?

    He said he has proof of belts being changed 6K miles ago, that wasn't a problem. It's just these other factors.

    How serious/costly are these problems?

    I've just text the guy saying it's an expensive fix, is he going to knock some money off and his reply is; "it's not the ball joint because I bought one for about £8 and had to take it back because it was play in the end of the steering arm or something. I got quoted £80 for parts to have it...

    How serious/costly are these problems?

    So, found a nice 197 - I've asked the seller to be straight out honest with any problems. Small dent (fine!) He's also said condensation in headlight due to a bulb being changed and the rubber not being put back on correctly and it's now correct and should dry out. Two other faults, last MOT...

    What else can I do to my Clio 1.2?

    Just noticed the 2.0 badges on it, creased. So if a Peugeot 107 spots you at the lights and leaves you behind.. Christ.
