08 plate 197 with climate control and cup pack just went through the auction last week for £4400. (Thats got a little bit to do with the time of year though)
I can't deny that they will be better. ITs obvious as thats what they are designed to do.
But out of every 1000 cars on british roads, maybe 10 have thought to buy winter tyres? (this may or may not be correct) So while your driving with loads of grip, whats stopping the other cars crashing...
Ok, so I go out tomorrow and spend £600 on a nice set of winter boots. It then snows next week and I decide to go shopping (because I NEED to go shopping...) and i'm patiently waiting at the lights and then BAM! A 2 tonne Audi Q7 being driven by some cnut that thinks they're invincible on the...
Against my wishes, I bought a secondhand CD player.
It loads/unloads CD's perfectly fine and makes all the right noises.
But the fcuking thing won't switch on. Is it fcuked or am I doing something wrong?
Thats the difference between me and you then. If its a short journey, walk! Aside from visiting a dying relative, nothing is worth driving in the snow and risking crashing/killing someone.
In my van (with a windscreen the size of a snooker table!) I have a magic tree.
In my car, anything hanging from there pisses me off. Especially doing fast left handers because the offending object swings into my line of vision.
My advice is; Stop doing drugs.
The car is worth (as it is) about £2-2500. (i'd give you £2500 for it, can collect tonight, got pound notes waiting.)
If you strip the car down COMPLETELY you will get a fair wedge of your money back so that is the way to go.
I've made some sense I think....
''This forum is full of chavs and dickheads. I've had 40 plus fords ranging from a mk1 Rs2000 to a Focus RS so I am in the position to crush the clio, end of! I may also name and shame the garage who did the MOT and the member who's car it was as well. Lol. ''...
Name and shame the member you bought it from??? So he forced you to buy it, with a gun to your head?
You sound like a dick, just piss off back to your ford forums you chopper.
When I did silverstone I did it with a mate in his 172 track car. He is a much better driver than me and previously when I had my 172, when we are both on track there is a big difference between us...
At silverstone with me in the 200, you couldn't get a fag paper between us for the whole day...
Wicked mate! Enjoying it? Whats your first impressions?
I did silverstone (pretty much non stop all day! lol) in mine and I loved it! Hated driving it on the road with the wife and kids hence I sold it.
Fair play to you, but I think you're fcuking MENTAL!
These cars cost an absolute fortune to keep up to a presentable standard.
But good luck to you, once you've finished it you won't be able to go anywhere without people taking pictures every 10 yards along the road!
