Would renault makes things so easy?? I don't know if they do or not :o

If it is a 50L tank. I've had my red light on for a while once, just to see how many miles I could scrape out of the tank and when I filled up, I think it took around 41-42L iirc, and I brimmed it up to the nozzle. I norm fill up when the needle is in the red but the light is not on and I get...

I thought all clio tanks were 50L but mine only seems to be about 41/42L roughly 9 gallons. When my light comes on, I fill up with about 40L as well.

Sexual! I want to get ph2 bumper and lights for my upcoming 172. The lights really suit the flame red. The car looks stunning mate!

yes, its just you *waits for msn to crash and die*

It's hard to say mate, if you plan to sell in a years time, then 12 months tax now would make sense, only £210. If you buy 6 months now/soon, then 12 months before 13th April 2009, it'll be £325 total for 18 months compared to £470 for 2 full years tax. Unless you have a rough time you...

If you were to keep your car for the next 2 years and 9 months, for example, it would cost you £115 + £210 + £260 + £270 = £855 (assuming you bought a years tax each year every Feb and didn't apply for a tax refund when selling up). If you just got 12 months tax every year from end of August...

Yeah I agree James, but Tax is something you have to pay, whether you drive 1 mile a month or 5000. Trackday is a choice but it is a valid point and in comparison road tax is cheap. It's difficult to tax people without taking into consideration how much they drive as well as what they drive...

Indeed, esp compared to an post - sept 07 330i Coupe paying just £170, £205 and £210 for this year and the next 2. I know that's some 7 years newer than the 172 engine design, but the 197 is still in the same tax bands as the 172. That said, BMW is top of emission reducing for petrol engines...

On the power front, that looks perfect mate. You'll only get 150W power from your amp when its turned up full. So as long as its never on full wack the speakers will be fine. Not sure if you still have to with modern day speakers, but you used to have to run them in, as in no high power for a...

According to parkers the ph1 172 pre-March 2001 will be £185 until April 2010 when it will go up to £200. Compared to ph2 172/ph1 172 registerd after 1st March 2001 that is currently £210, going up to £260 from April 2009 and then £270. So if you bought a tax today, the next three years...

Lol that is unlucky, bet at the time the original owner was happy it would have had a brand new reg on it. Yeah £270 isn't a lot now, but no idea what it could be in quite a few years and I'm planning on keeping as a track car when I'll probably replace it in a few years time. Plus I'm still...

Is yours after March 2001? One of the latest ph1 172s then. I'm looking for a pre March 2001 172 just to save on tax lol

Looks good Ivan, cant see the peeling in the pics. Is that the same shade that Williams have? Maybe try 3000 grit paper to sand it down.

Oh right, it said WGC on S on sony site but not on W. That's good, just got to see if the difference is worth £260 tho, the Pana TX-32LZD80 is £140 more the P which I may be able to deal with lol Isn't the 8 range the most entry level with the 80 being 2nd lowest? Its looks a pretty good set...

According to Sony, GT5P is 1080p, and that's why I was interested in the W4000 due to 1:1 mapping. I'm unlikely to watch many Blu-ray movies atm cos I'm just not been in the mood to watch movies atm, but probably will in the future, if I ever have time it'll pretty much be for gaming and...

Hmm a tad waaaaayyy out of my budget lol We've had a Sony plasma for 5 years now and its been excellent, altho obvs quality has increased a lot since then but always been more than happy with Sony TVs. Just need to know how much the 1080p will make a difference?

Well 32" is the maximum size I can have otherwise it'll be blocking a doorway and dont want the risk of it being knocked over. GT5 (and GT5P for now) are my biggest reasons for a PS3 right now so with those being 1080p, a 1080p TV would be a plus. Will the PS3 not upscale 720p games anyway...

Thanks Oska. Surpised you don't think much of the P3020. Think I'll have to go and look at them as well. I was looking at those Sony's because they have amazing reviews on What Hi Fi and elsewhere and are spec'ed very well. Also will be getting Sony 5.1 at some point, so they will all work...

That's what I was thinking but wondering if likely to be any noticeable difference between them? £260 is a big difference and wondering of worth it.

Looking at Sony KDL32W4000 or KDL32P3020, 1st is 1080p, 2nd is 1080i. Was wondering since the W4000 wont have to upscale/downscale the PS3 output will it produce a better image? I know 1080p makes little if no difference on a 32" TV but its just the question if scaling will affect the...

MK2 ph1 1.4 RT - £340 - 21, 4yrs driving, 3NC, 1 fault claim, 3 points Ph1 172 - £950ish quote - same as above

Ph2 lights will be my first mod for my ph1 172. Hoping to get ph2 rear bumper as well.

Mine Sky+ was perfect through BB last night. Only time we had problems was monday night when stormy weather, lost signal for 20mins I think, been totally fine after.

Do this! Looks superb!

Get a quote from everyone mate, directly, not through compare websites, and try adding your parents to lower your policy. Although I paid more than that for a 1.4 8v, so same power etc, when I was 18 but that was with an fault claim and 3 points. THAT IS CRAZY!!! Why should woman pay...

As said, oxidisation is the main thing. Had it on my 1990 rover :( Think newer red cars in the last 5-10yrs dont hav much of a problem to this, but I prob still wouldn't get one just incase, unless its a Ferrari...*goes off to count how much is in the piggy bank*

LOL I think the guy was hoping he'd get someone in a modded corsa 1.2 at the lights than you lol

Yep it is a CSL, plate check says so and when I saw it from a distance I was convinced but couldn't make out the badge till I got close to it. Everything else standard CSL, bootiful! Apparently he's on the BMW forum and did it for the fun of watching people thinking its a CSL rep, till he...

Only put on 2.0 badges if you're the sort of person that'd put M3 badges on a 318i. Never overstate IMO, keep it as it is, or just get 16v. Understated is only cool if you have a fast car like 1.2 badges on a 1*2 or 316i badges on this...
