No, my wife decided to take our son to the circus so I had to stay at home with the baby.
I'll be up there next sunday. MAybe even thursday if I can get out of work early enough.
Thank you for all your help though. :)
Wow, 40k, such high mileage....
40k and looked after by an enthusiast, or 10k and driven to the shops and back by Doris and never warmed up.
Tough choice.
I completely agree with what you're saying...
BUT!
Life is all about averages and chance. Now If i go and spend £400 shodding my wifes Rav4 with some winter spec tyres, is she going to benefit?? No. Because if the weather is remotely bad, she'll stay at home. She's carrying two small...
I've driven 50,000+ miles a year for the last 5 years. Never EVER fitted ''winter'' tyres and never will. In fact that's a bit of a lie, I bought a Pajero purely because it had winter tyres on it but sold it within a week and couldn't be arsed to find another one.
If the weathers a bit ropey...
First of all, you need two matching tyres on the front. Its the only way to get a car driving properly. Getting one replaced is pointless. If you shat in your pants would you just wipe one cheek?
Second of all, you need a proper person to look at it. I don't mean Billy from kwik fit, I mean a...
Tbf, the OP sounds like a normal human. I think we should give him another chance and explain to him about tyres on the clio's, and the chocolate engine/gearbox mounts.
I think that's his issue as he doesn't type like a bellend so probably isn't one.
Re: Taking it's time to warm up in the morning...
The people that work in my local (where I worked for 7 fcuking years!!) have been told not to give me any discount. At all.
Cheers then!
Hello.
I have a mk1 clio shell, a working ph1 172 engine.
Inside is bare. I want to run the 172 dials, the mk1 OR the 172 indicator/wiper switches and the standard interior loom to run all the lights/wipers etc.
I have no HRW, electric windows or mirrors etc so that's no issue.
Where the...
I agree, good 172/182's age very well.
I have a nice 182 that still smells new inside!
That's the thing with french Hot hatches, they take a lot of TLC to keep them tip top but when you do that, they always look cool!
Surely just run a bit of string round it, measure that, go to halfords and get a belt suitable?
You could have had the car running yesterday and then spoke to Nick on monday about it.
