November 2011 okay, heres the worlds smallest update i was planning on stripping the engine this weekend, well sunday to be precise, but it rained, so i didnt! as such i decided to dismantle my LEDA's and clean them up in the age old way i know of ;-) safe and sound...

Thought i'd share the ins and outs, the trials and tribulations and the emotional rollercoaster that is French car ownership.... or more specifically modified French car ownership. Excuse the start of this thread, its all going to be copy pasted from other forums to get upto speed, however...

technically the turbo is a modified example of a lower insurance group car as well I suppose, its only group 12 for a 1.8 16v, where as the 172's are 17 aren't they? there or there abouts?

I cant remember where I checked the guide, but it matches to what the lass on the phone said, moved from a c to a d I think it was? and the charge is a premium adjustment, I've had the paperwork through for both, no admin charge on either, just a premium increase on the 172. yes the broker uses...

I have recently moved house, so like a good lad I've rung up and registered my change of address, I have moved to a slightly less reputable post code, one notch down I believe when I researched it so I fully expected a bump in the premium a small amount. I have both cars insured through the...

wonder if Morphy Richards do Xerus Grey kettles................

I really like that, as mentioned a cup spoiler would just finish it lovely i'd leave the phase 1 rear lights though too, nod to what it is ;)

whatever you do don't buy granite worktops or a Belfast sink, or you'll be selling the Vee and spending the cash on plates and glasses every 2 minutes ;)

get that gear-lever base flocked, looks a let-down compared to the rest of the interior ;)

as above really, if its all legal there shouldn't be an issue. and there must be loads in a similar position, guys on tour in the army, blokes who do 6 months on oil rigs etc etc

keep it, you can sleep in a car, you cant drive a house ;) I've got loads to do to my house, and i'm approaching 30 and toyed with the idea of ditching the turbo........but I just know I would really regret it and never be in a position afterwards to do it all over again when I did miss it...

Note, just looked at Martin's pics and wish I'd kept the 16" now,I love superlegs and am buying a 182 soon, 16" look much better on mk2 Clios!only got 15's in stock at the mo :-(

I've bought and sold a fair few sets,always in good nick with good tyres and invariably in the 4-500 quid range for 15" less for the 16" but only had one set of 16,they were bought and sold for about 250 very very light wheel, 5.1kg in 15" with centre cap and spigot on scientific scales at...
