silver willy wheels look cool mate, but i prefer your 17s.

as i mentioned earlier mines up for sale at the min on the auto trader (i only put it on there the other day) I have had a shed load of work carried out on it, including another engine (after the oil pressume pump died & seized the engine) plus the camblet & a new clutch. mines up at 3k ono, but...

so its lost 11k in a year (if it did cost 31k new, as James said) !!!! oh dear.

one word sums up that car- Mental !

i looked at a few rough ones 3 yeard ago - all priced at the going rate, i bet its a lot harder now to find a decent well looked after example. one thing i have noticed is that every one is always after a decent example, ye they never ever want to pay for it, as with everything in this world...

i prefer the mk1 scooby, the newer ones are ugly.

it would, mines up on the auto trader at the min (only did it the other day) & not many bites yet ! and im open to offers on the price !

my dads flame red 172 is, my valver is apart from the h/u, mine still has the original rac renault tax disc holder circa 1994 !

strange thing here, its working fine now ! stupid renault electrics !

dont use confused.com go direct to the company they pick out for you. my mates honda s2000 came back as honda accord type s on there too ! so make sure (if you do use it) they get the right car.

i grounded mine under the carpet on the boot floor, that way it was out of sight.

colin s on here has a black valver with a maxi kit, he may be able to tell you where the kit came from.

i like it a lot.

mines going too (real soon) then im getting a fiat coupe 20vt, i will miss my valver ive had it since i was 21 (3 years now) i will miss it.

it sounds a lot of hassle tbh, i may just leave it.

how many have leather ? ;) mines a 1994, i cant believe there were 800 or so produced that year, they are definately becoming rarer now, i hardly ever see any.

I think its just plain poinless turbo-ing a 1.2, as most have said you may as well buy a 172, or a clio with a bigger engine than a 1.2 & turbo that instead. To put things into perspective i was reading fast ford the other week (shock horror) & van aaken do to a turbo for a fiesta zetec s...

i see what you saying, however elephant & admiral are by far the cheapest (most places (not all) have an excess of £350.00 any way) im 25 this year, so it will drop to £300.00, plus im selling the valver soon & getting a fiat coupe 20v t, so the insurance will be more - i will have to pay...

thanks, for that, i think its going to be a mission. plus the search facility on here only lets you look for the title, not the replys. i may just leave it then.

its 200 regardless, plus ive always opted to pay a voluntery 250.00, i though it was 100.00 as standard, not 200.00 !!! i couldnt believe it to be honest.

E sound like a goor idea, either that or return it to standard & sell it, keeping the bits to put on another 172 when i returned.

i dont understand it either, what a bunch of w*nkers.

i have just renewed it on my valver for £414 f/c with elephant, i always thought the excess was £350.00, but as im in age group 21-24 its £450.00 !!! (i opted for a voluntary £250.00 though, the 200.00 is statatury) i cant believe it ! when im 25 the excess goes down to £300.00, weird !

i know this has prob been posted loads of times, but my bulb has blown, its really odd at night not having the temp displayed now. is it a mission to change? what do i have to do?

may be bought it instead of the normal 172 because of the colour? he hasnt ruined it, the wheels & ice can be taken off of it. if hed sprayed it pink that would be adifferent matter.

i heard that of those produced only 10% ish have leather & considering at was a £1000 option im not surprised. does any one have a standard one with it ? mine is, apart from 195 tyres (the previous owner fitted them & i have just replaced them) and a willy gear knob (i do still have the...

tell me about it mate, i was livid, its not majorly (i may be able to do something with it) however its put a slight dent on the swage line of the passenger side arch. the main reason i was annoyed though was that i was sat in it while she did it ! then the had the cheek to deny it (im soo glad...

normally i take two spaces & park away from the other cars (im soo paranoid) however yesterday, i didnt really have a choice, now i know better than to park next to some idiot who doesnt care about their car.

106gti all the way, they handle so well as standard.

yesterday i had to go into romford to run an errand for my folks, so me & my bro went - we parked in the market & my bro goes into the shop while i stay in the car. any ways, the bird in the car next to me returns to her car & i hear bang plus my car shakes (im not driving it- its parked) the...
