The last thing you should do when getting a new car is hammer it from the off. Need to learn its characteristics etc first. But you have to laugh, aslong as he's ok and insured then no real harm done.

Why would you lie to save £50 when you previously declared it. If you crash they will go over your car with a fine tooth comb now so make sure you're fully declared etc i'm sure you will be by your opening post but just a heads up.

Bit off topid but when you have your car stripped where do you store stuff that you don't want on show? i.e. if you've been shopping or something?

WD40, an essential tool for any job where you are undoing tight or rusty bolts etc

thats a good idea incase anything goes wrong with the stands, thanks for the heads up mate, doubt there would be much left of me if my car fell on me.

Might invest in some ramps and 2 axle stands then, its just because in the future i want to start doing some work on my car i.e. my own oil/filter changes, maybe changing exahust, fitting coilies etc The ramp seams a good option because i can imagine it being good for changing exhaust etc and...

Wonder how many people will go for throttle bodies on 197's they're pretty new people mite not want to start hacking at them yet whilst they're still worth a lot.

Brilliant i'll definately invest in a set then, now the question should i get 2 or 4, don't mind getting 4 as there dirt cheap but is it safe to use 4 at once.

Best bet is to put your ktec exhaust up in the forsale section and ask for a standard exhaust in return. Or head to a scrappy and make sure its a good exhaust

I wouldnt lie under a car supported by a jack i'm not quite that stupid. I have a trolley jack, well my grandad does, thats as good as. I was just thinking about some because i will want to do some mods when my awful directline insurance runs out. Could i for example easily change my...

How useful are axle stands? What things do they alloy you to go? Obviously change brakes/wheel easily but what other stuff could you fit coilies using them? fit a decat or exhaust etc. Basically i'm just after an idea of what things they will let me do that i couldnt do with just the...

Awsome a japanise valver. Bet it hasnt got any rust either.

Brilliant pics and cars

What are your list of mods mate?

very nice indeed mate

Good mods mate, thats low milage btw, my 55 plate has 37k on it.

That is one shiney 197, like it a lot.

Lots of work must have gone into this mate, and it shows, truely amazing

Looks brilliant mate, you going to continue modding then or stop now your done your plans?

Both look clean mate.

Like it mate, especially the carbon splitter.

Where did u get your quotes from mate, i'm hoping to get a decent quote when i'm 19. If you can afford FC insurance get ph2 if u can only afford tpft get ph1 imo

Like the pro race 1.2's, compliment the car and colour well.

looks awsome, love racing blue

Very nice cars the dynamique s, dci's perfect aswell if you don't want to go fast.

Thats a good price for a 1.6 with mods at your age mate, think i'll give them a look next year.

Like it mate, agree insurance is a joke. Mines £1400 at 18 1years experience 1 years ncb (off my scooter) with direct line.

I like it, its different from the usual red anyway.

+1 i'd have been up for a spin

I understand your point mate but sometimes its about more than image if you enjoy driving then the gti/vts are both good drivers cars. Although it would be like going back a century. If i can't afford 172 insurance it is an option I would consider. Although maybe a stipped 1.6 16v clio or...
