someone at work has a cooper s works and without any of the nice works wheels and satnav etc he paid £23,000!!!!!!
It only has the same spec as my 182.
i had problems with sutton park also, aswell as a few other people!
they forgot my front splitter and couldnt even order me one as they couldnt find the part number. So in the end I had to supply them with the part number and it took 6 weeks to arrive, they said they didnt know it came with a...
yes, 172cup_nut you are wrong, the cup tyre is the V rated one, the only person that has the W rated tyre is TomClio182 as his was one of the first off the production line, mine being a couple of weeks behind.
It would seem that all cars from mine onwards have the V rated tyre so it could...
those have been in various places around Kdderminster for a few years, I guess they must have been testing them as we are in Worcestershire and thats where they are made.
On a plus point, there isnt any normal Gatsos around here.
anything below 13k is normally pre-registered, so check it out first as people have had problems with pre-registered cars and not owning them for 3 months.
you can get a dealer non pre-registered car for between 13-13.5k which is good. I paid £13100 with both cup packs and the cd changer and...
it is called the optimum gear change indicator but it isnt one, it is past the point of optimum and only comes on as you are about to hit the limiter so should really be called a change up before you hit the limiter indicator!
It will come on at different times depending on whether the engine...
yes, i rarely get anyone bothering me unless I pull off a sly manouver, still get people staring and pointing at it, just yeserday I was at a petrol station and some guy came over and said what a nice car it was, I thought only V6 owners got that but it has happened to me a few times now!
As...
mine are all scratched on the top becasue my exhaust was bowing when I got it and they rubbed on the bumber, do you think renault would replace the end pipes because of the exhaust being their fault?
yes, i believe the tyre pictured above is the cup tyre and it is only if you have the non-cup tyres that you are going to have a problem finding those for sale
i have being saying this for ages on the pre-reg thing, it brings so many complications, people dont know enough about what they are getting and just see the money they are apparently saving.
For insurance though, I would just say you are the registered owner and worry about it if anything...
I see what you mean, and maybe I was being too clever for my own good and made it somewhat funny, or it could be that I was suggesting that as you rolled your eyes and they went under your eyelids at the top I poked you?
I dunno which but its come back and bit me on the a*s really hasnt it Tommy
I think you have the wrong end of the stick or havent read Toms post, he doesnt mention Optimax, we all know optimax is 98 ron, he was saying that Sainsburys is the same as BP Ultimate, which is 97 ron.
Hope that helps before you make a bigger fool out of yourself
yeah, this is this pre-registered story that keeps coming up, what are the rules, what to do, it all seems a bit grey with the rules associated with pre-registered cars through brokers!
Glad you like the car though and I cant think of anything more frustrating than picking it up and not being...
it seems the cup spoiler, stripes and cd player are options too so when you add the cd player and cup spoiler on there isnt much difference in price to a 182, unless they are included in the price in the UK?
oh and if they charge us £1 per mile for the motorway then it wont solve the problem as everyone will move to the A roads and country lanes and clog all of those up, the idea of motorways is to free up those roads but people will start to use those more as they will be free.
It would be total...
whats annoying me at the moment are the idiots that are driving around at 30-40 mph in national speed limit zones and then when it goes to 30, they are still driving at 40!
Idiots, they should be done for driving too slowly at 40 in a 60, you can be done for driving too slow in America, we...
andycup, r u for real, you remind me of others who talk in riddles, takes me ages to work out what you are saying, r u sure you are even old enough to drive?
doh, too slow, hadnt seen your post extreme.
