    Anyone used 'Affordable mobiles' or 'buymobiles.net' ? S8 n00b!

    Hi chaps, I'm still using my samsung S5 and it's falling to bits now after what, 3 years of heavy usage. I'm looking to get the S8, especially after just reading the thread on here about it! I'm with three mobile as they have great signal where I live and have been with them for 4 years no...

    First post - Clio 172/182 as a daily/track car? £? Reliability?

    Thanks for the help chaps. I've just seen this come up not far from me - personally I feel its overpriced a bit, but it does look very clean. My 'practical' daily is becoming less practical already lol. Thoughts welcome...

    Right so I've done some reading, have a few questions for you knowledgeable chaps! I quite like the 182 as it suits my needs being a daily and will do some distance at some points. Q1! Dephasers. Lots of people suggest these don't really need replacing for lots of miles, but you will hear a...

    Thanks guys! I am truly stunned at my call with Greenlight earlier on. I spoke to someone (Neil?) who completely knew what he was on about, even had a 172 and has an Mx5 himself, How refreshing it was to actually speak to a human let alone car enthusiast and get results out of him in minutes...

    Will do, thanks mate. First go online and I'm down to £471. The problem I have is that my Mk1 is currently with Admiral, it ends soon in mid March. So trying to work out if multi-car is worth it or not is a nightmare as the quote random poo on the phone. It may well work out cheaper to just...

    Thanks guys. I'll give you a call Dan but unfortunately echo the above. Admiral are wanting silly money £732 for insurance additional to my Mk1 Mx5 which is like £600. E46 M3 £1,050. If I can get it down to around £500 I'll buy one. Off to the comparison sites I go!

    Already emailed about that one. It's a beaut - Just prefer blue/black. More mods the better haha. I need to get my insurance quotes ASAP. Even if I just had one for 6months to a year, I can't really see it going down in value more than £500. Are the gearboxes weak? Was just reading about...

    I'll do just that thanks. I'm surprised just how many are for sale that have been looked after well, makes a change after looking at Mx5's for over a year... What are 182 engines like on high miles? The usual, 'if it's been looked after' it's likely to be OKAY? Or do they go 'bang' lol. I've...

    Oh yeah that wheel is hideous haha. Saying that I've spent the last 5 mins on the cars for sale thread here, there are some stunners! All seem good value and really well written adverts. I can feel a purchase coming on. Need to check my insurance. What sort of MPG can you get on a run being...

    Is it me or is this pretty cheap? Looks to have been looked after somewhat. Not looking for a minter really! MOT History well clean. https://www.gumtree.com/p/renault/renault-clio-172-182-low-mileage-well-looked-after-/1214809930

    Awesome thanks for the responses already guys. Is there a particular model to look out for? Year of vintage? Basically I'll want one that's had cash spent on it so I can buy it with some tarty bits already on for a fraction of the cost lol. I've seen this on the bay...

    Hi all, This forum looks like a great source of information so I just had to sign up. A quick bit of background, I'm 23, had a Clio 1.4s as my first car at 17 haha - went to a saxo VTR after, then BMW 330CD, then a Mk1 MX5... I'm currently having a go at making my MK1 better and working on it...
