The GFV will remain the same. The only thing that will alter that is the mileage you select. If your sticking to 6k per year then it will remain the same. no matter how much you put in.
iirc (it was some time ago) when I did these PCP's, it worked out roughly as every £500 extra you put in...
But racing blue and red are diabolical colours! lol.
So you need to spec more! and the original wheels are complete bobbins.
TBH, they knew what they were doing when they did the options/standard features/price lists!! Cheeky monkeys!
I'm going in August and tbh, i'm just going for the atmosphere and to see whats what. I will more than likely just do 1 maybe 2 laps.
I cant afford to risk doing anymore!
Yeah this is quite long as it goes from the manifold all the way back to the back box and has to work its way over the steering rack.
Sounds like a plan then! :D

£140 inc vat.
Is that a good price? Sounded ok to me but just want to make sure...
waste of money imo, but if thats wat you want to do, go for it!
Why not get it wrapped? Then when you've finished with the car, un-wrap it and sell it as a standard 172?
Translates to ''I don't want people to think i'm poor''.
You live on your own?? I've got a wife and kid and a Clio is perfectly big enough you horses ass!
I went away from the audi/big car thing because its a waste for what we use it for! We holiday abroad and I work 7 days a week so a...
Correct! I'm not a fan of turbo'd cars full stop really. I did think about it but I love revving the nuts off stuff and I also think that the megane is (just) too ugly. I know the 200 isn't a looker by any stretch of the imagination, but I can live with it for how well they drive.
