Years ago my old boss drove through a flood in a peugeot 306 dturbo thingy and that did £1800 worth of damage!! (Was a long time ago mind!)

You'd need to budget on an engine swap really. Either that or a full rebuild (which will cost more) Its probably £6000 to sell once its running properly so will make a very cheap wagon!

People don't seem to realise that theses cheap text checkers DO NOT check if its got finance outstanding on it.

So you're not worried if its got £5000 worth of finance outstanding on it then? Your call, good luck.

I wish I never sold that car to you. Every time I spoke to you, you were replacing something. Sorry. :(

Service history is key to the longevity of these engines/boxes/turbo's. Just the usual used car checks. And for the love of god make sure you do a PROPER hpi check on it!!

We get a few from Seat, they must be really special.... never had it with any other manufacturer though. Supply a covering note, explaining whats wrong attatched to a letter from your local main renault dealer and they'll change it. Dead easy.

I'm not being funny, but they were going far too fast!!

Love it! Wheels really suit it.

It cropped up in my search...

Genuine lol.

Not a lot of point. If changing wiper blades is his bag, he hasn't got a lot of morales has he!

Aha! All becomes clear.

We've all done that, but tbh, as long as the car's a good'un is it really worth worrying about? If you keep it 4 years (about average for a used car buyer) then thats £500 a year. Its peanuts in the grand scheme of things.

Surely these are things to check before you pay and drive away? Hardly the sellers fault you never looked the car over properly before you handed over your wonga. Even if you paid a deposit, then went back a week later to collect it and all of the above had been swapped, just don't pay the...

Before you go spending money on a cat, chuck a bottle of cat cleaner in it, and give it a proper italian tune-up. My 172 (after nearly a year of not moving) failed on emissions and after the above, it pissed through.

Go to pistonheads, print off the three cheapest *any colour here* 182's you can find with similar mileage. Go to cliosport.net/renaultsport.com/clio197.net and print off the adverts for the Liquid yellows. Post them to him recorded delivery. Await fat cheque.

I love T1r-s on track! Soft side wall + fairly soft compund = Great fun! Neary as much fun as my Linglongs I had n my M3.... 'You spin me right round baby right round...'

New mercs/bm's etc are similar, in that the dealership pugs in the key and can fault find/reset stuff, but how the hell would it work on a car without an electronic key?!

How is it being fixed? Is it being welded? If its just fibre glassed and fillered it will crack again as the bumpers are very flexible. I don't know why i'm wasting my breath, you won't listen.

That looks fcuking brilliant! love it!

At the moment, its full of kids bikes, a paddling pool and a lawn mower. Whilst my expensive bucket seats sit under a tarpaulin...

Fuel filter blocked/broken hence the leak and poor running? If it sucks in air it will cause havoc.

Clean the EGR valve out? (Do these even have one??)

Those rear cards look fantastic!! Doing the fronts as well?

Fcuk me, black looks goooooood!!!

Has the kid fallen asleep? I've got work in the morning..

Asking someone to spend £7000 of their money and you spell better 'Beta' and never 'neva'. Good luck.

Fcuk spending all that money on a first car. My first car ended up with a back seat covered in male/female spunk and the front seats covered in blim burns.
