4 straight wheels and 4 decent tyres, a spare too .. can't be bad for £300 ? Jamie's advice above is spot on TBH. Last set of wheels I bought were £600, one track day use with near enough brand new tyres .. sold my old set of knackered wheels and soon to be dead tyres for £400 .. net cost of...

Nice. Ph2 172/182 interior will look mint :) Don't get black wheels, and don't tint the windows ! ;) *edit* On second glance, it looks like it's already got tints haha :o

http://www.pistonheads.com/classifieds/3051974.htm http://www.pistonheads.com/classifieds/3136080.htm A decent 172 will be £2500 + £3500 insurance for a year + >£200ish tax .. and do 35MPG. dCi = £3000 + less insurance (surely!?) + £30 a year + 70mpg. I know which I'd be going for in your...

Please tell me this is something half decent (i.e.: not TurtleWax) ? Wet the surface with water or detailing spray then wipe it off :S If you still need a hammer/chisel you've used FAR too much product.

FLOL ! If you just want something a little faster, dCi's FTW. Much better MPGs, as much torque as a 172 and £30 a year tax. Just don't get one with a sunroof as you well know, they're all sh*t and leak. :D

I totally understand not wanting to pay silly money for insurance when the car is worth half as much as the premium ! Is there anything wrong with your current bus ? If not, another 12 months and another years NCB might not be the worst idea in the world ? If you want sh*ts and giggles, do...

Screwdriver through the filter then you've got more distance to go with your turning effort... it will come off. Simple as ;)

It's not my problem if people can't understand credit cards my friend :) That's up to them...

Liam - as I said, ask your parents for a favour regarding the balance. I can't imagine a 1.1 fiesta will be 'cheap' to insure for you anyway, let alone a grp 16 Clio ?! Sorry !? Insurers tend to charge upwards of 20 or 30% on your premium for monthly instalments... I think the APR on my...

Oh I see, so it's more a lack of traction, than a map issue holding back to milkfloat levels of get up and go ? TBH, I don't launch the scoob in first very often. Like maybe twice in the last 18 months. Normally wait until it's rolling then make the loud pedal eat shagpile. 4WD helps in the...

On the top of the trim, like a little finger that pops up when unlocked ? That'd be a soldier :)

Cheers :) Why the low speed acceleration so poor compared to when in Full Combat Mode ? Silly long gearing !? Sounds good .. I think I'll stick to my Scoobz for a while .. the green bus used to embarrass everything. Only thing that EVER showed me up was some kind of Ninja on a quadbike...

You won't get discount online from the decent insurers (Sky, Greenlight etc.. Sky offer discount to CS members.) It might be cheaper for me but the other way around for you. Insurance is essentially a random number generator. The only way to find out is to call them and find out dude ...

Mint. I do like these buses... not sure what a whales penis looks like, but I'm going to assume they didn't base the styling on that !? What's the deal with them Gaz ? I do fancy one at some point in the future... Good to drive ? Reliable ? Fast ? Cheap to run or bankrupting territory ...

Thank goodness Will's car is hidden !!!!

.. or THIS Axel ?

Cat footprints ?

Serious question - have you compared (no not the bloody meercat website, a real human being on the phone of a decent specialist insurer like Greenlight or Sky) the insurance on a ph1 172 to a 1.6 clio / vts etc....? EVERYTHING is silly to insure now, and for a few hundred quid (which you...

Can anyone recommend a case .. sort of like this: Spec case ? If not, I'll buy one of those and see what happens ! My 2009 MB 13" has a few scratches and blemishes on it. Not really fussed but wouldn't mind a cover on it now to, er, cover them up. Should have got one from day one but never...

Nice write up of a nice looking romantic get away ! ;)

FLOL ! Cool, thanks :) I'm fairly switched on (I like to think...). Wait til you see the results !!!! :evil:

Hundred and thirty sumfinks with CS discount and Saturday delivery added...

;) See you tomorrow bee-arch. Old man won't be there. You're short. What's your point ?

Well yes Brian, then yours if you like .. then my spare BBus then I might think about my regular one ;)

Re: My Phase 1 ITB Daily Runner LMAO .. trust Daniel to be the one to hijack the thread at that time of night !! Feel free to buy me a beer when you turn up here ;)

Re: My Phase 1 ITB Daily Runner Oh dear.. the humanity... etc. You must bring the turdbus to me on the way home !!!

Tidy !! Which one did you 'want' ? They're embedded properly .. but either they're only for friends, or for your own viewing only as the link goes to private page.

HA ! It's unique. Ph2 boot lid too, innit ?

Good turn around !! Spot the Essex boy ... ^ ooh.. there's one now !

It's not a CS .. it's an RS, you KrispyKreme.
