congrats!! u'll get plenty that tell you it wont handle worth a f**k but ive been there done that (not quite that low though!) and can confirm it still fuckin handles alright!!!
i insured my 1.2 16v for £1500 fully comp in my own name at 17 with pass plus. with direct line
go on your own policy its worth the initial big premium to get a big drop after a year with 1yrs ncb.
im paying £2500 a year on a 172 at 18 and in march it drops to £1500 with 1years ncb!!
i cant see f**k all with mine either, my 1.2 16v was much better with upgraded bulbs and that was lowered -90mm lol i rarely ever used full beam on that, but always flicking it on and off on the 172
lol knob end garage who refused it under warranty told me it was a renault only part!!
this the part from GSF....
Part Number: R93000
Description: Lambda Probe
Fitment: Renault All Excl. espace v6
Price: £42.50

although i had to wash my rear reg plate lastnight because you couldnt read it anymore plus a mate wrote "i f**k my mum" across my reg!
bet it handles properly now!!!! you cant throw them about on 16s like you can on 15's, i hate mine i just cant afford any 15s yet lol 2118's soon i think
not always true to be fair ^^^ ive got my 172 at 18 and my mum and dad havn't spent a penny on it, infact my mum thinks its a 1.4 because i knew she wudnt let me have a 2.0 16v at 18 being a driving instructor haha
parents have no idea how much i spend just to have it.
i miss my old 1.2 16v and ive got a 172!!!
172 is quicker, in much better condition, much nicer interior, much nicer exterior, drives better, handles nearly as good.
but i miss the days of the 1.2 16v, it was my first car, it felt reasonably quick because i wasnt used to anything else, it...
