I've seen 140 on the clock in the vee, so in reality probs about 130 ??
I backed off at 140.
Top end is 146 apparently, so god knows what that would be on the clock.
I did get 150 on the clock in my old fiat coupe 20vt though, again I backed off, it still had loads more to go.
All of the...
If it is an actual 182 cup (a proper one, not a 182 with cup packs) it won't have the leather/sude seats, it'll have cloth ones - it wont have washer jets for the headlights either.
- edit, so bacially it sounds like he's got a normal 182, possibly with cup packs.
Nice one !! Lupo gti's are quite cool cars, they are quite nippy too.
Lmao @ the dude who said was only worth £800 - yeah at an auction where most cars there are shoddy examples, or cat d's.
Good little site that,
I have this one http://www.carmodel.net/zoomPage.php?MjM0NjA8Oj4wPDo+YWRkVG9DYXJ0KCdZMnhwYnp3N1BreENVaTB0WVd4c0xUQXRNekF0TVMwdycsJycsICcnLCAnJywnJywgJ2FkZC0xLTIzNDYwJywgJzAnKQ==
In 1/18 scale.
People I know who have had it done have poppers under the door mirrors (like tvr's) Donna on here had a fiesta zetec s which was smoothed out, I think hers were there.
One other thing people do is to leave the boot lock on as a manual way of getting into the car if it all goes wrong & you...
Ok, not being funny but any mk2 172 within your budget will be a heap. 4.5k won't get you a decent mk2 at all, you'll need a grand, maybe even 1.5k more tbh.
You'll get a nice mk1 172 for the money, just not a mk2 (yet)
You made an offer without going to see it first ? Your supposed to do that if you wanna buy it.
Not being funny but anyone who asks me would you take x for it (without even bothering to come & see it) & i'm asking y I'll tell them to stop wasting my time - if they come round & are genuinely...
Agreed Rich, in my experience though, I can almost always tell by the seller on the phone (thier whole manner etc gives it away in general)
I also ask the most stupidest questions - which only someone who has an idea will know (did it for my last car & the current one)
The adverts people...
Yep - there is an exclusive on an 02 reg, my mum & dad saw it a Renault Ilford years ago when my dad was looking for his 172 (he bought a 52 flame red instead)
Alex - have you got a link to the other ad's you've put out, just so we can see what detail you've put in the ad
(I always tend to put a fair bit in, but leave a few small bits out - so that whoever calls up will ask me)
Every car i've had the first person to see it has bought it (they will...
Why not ask the seller a load of questions on the car before going round to see it ??
Call them up, ask away- get a feel for it, if they don't seem to know or have an idea, don't bother going.
Even if they are not sure on a few things, they can always go & look at their bills etc (assuming...
