Ahh cool. I've seen people (quite a while ago) roll their minters off of trailers onto stands etc for the concourse competitions. That to me is just plain wrong.

JPandDeb - read the bit I put about the red line on the car, as I said it won't be 7.8 unless you (or someone else) has had it raised. Standard (as from the factory) is not 7.8k at all. As for the ecotek valves, if you like them that's all that matters. I on the otherhand (and many others on...

What was that noise (or whatever it was) which no one seemed to know what it was ?

No.

It's a pile of crap tbh, I wish i'd never bought it.

^ No offence to him, but I doubt it will sell at this time of year for the price he wants, or anythnig remotly like what he wants for it. Early next year he might get what he wants for it.

Mofo, all of the answers to your questions are on here.

She bought a lemon ;)

Yep deffo the time of the year, the market should pick up again around March next year.

I know what you mean about the concours level, trailering the car to the show, stickers still on the tyres, mirrors showing the underside of the car & all that etc etc. I think all that is a bit on the anal side tbh. I'd just want to get out there & drive it :)

I did that by adding a renault f1 world champion winner sticker to the rear window (the circular one as per the meg f1):) Like I said i'm not a fan of the these stickers though, may as well just put Lamborghini on the car tbh, as that has as much to do with f1 as the f1 stickers do on the 182.

That's how the mk1 comes. The spoiler is the same as the mk2 172 (non cup) one.

Mine has a mint steering wheel too (I know it's pretty un heard of ) mines on 29k. If you come to the London run thing, your more than welcome to give my car the once over. I've still got the original in mine too. Car looks ace mate:approve: I thought he was selling up as he wanted a noble ?

He can do, but tbh it's really not worth it at all. It'll make a nice noise, but that's about it.

If you mean like nos, I wouldn't bother tbh unless of course your running nos.

Yeah give the rad a good flush through (I bet the water comes out a rust colour) flush it through both ways (from the top & the bottom) I did it on years ago when I had a mk1 & the temp it put out doubled (I tested the temp before & after) it still wasn't spot on, but it was a lot better.

Here we are It's a no for me.

I have a pic of them on a vee, not my thing at all tbh. I'll dig the pic out.

I think that the OP is missing the point tbh. If the trader was gonig to go a deal on the vee, he wouldn't come out of it that bad.

Tonight about 9pm coming out of the one way road into city road. - If your wondering who the random was who bent down to look in the car, that was me - I was wondering who was driving. Cars very loud, what exhaust have you got on it ? I think I saw you last thursday too near barbican...

Not that one again !! The owner that car must only have had it for about two months. FM yeah mate, utter gash ;)

The heaters on mk1's are notoriously sh*te. Give the radiator a flush through & go from there. It could be the old dreaded, blocked matrix though.

Re: !!!! It depends what he's going to knock off of the vee tbh.

^ should have gone elsewhere then.

Pmsl :)

youtube no good to you ???

That s1 rst is mint as:approve: have you won any concours trophies with it ??

....Waits for the three seconds to be timed on a stop watch. 60 in 3 secs, no chance.

I remember hearing it at a BW meet a while back, sounds err.. different ;)

Not for me.
