I would too actually. It may not snap for years. I know of a ph1 172 on 120K thats still on its origional cambelt so you could get away with it for years, or it could be hours. Either way its a win win situation because you can't lose money on it.

So that would be around £5.5K for an RS Twingo, I wouldn't pay that for a Veyron. I don't know how you manage to pay so much for insurance Jason. The GT must make sence to people though because I've seen a fair few on the road. Not my cup of tea personally but they are a nice car. They sound...

Its a great gearknob on the ph1. Really nice to use. My problem with mine though was if it was -5 outside, the knob was about -10. I had to wear gloves in winter for the first 10 mins of driving.

Thats mental. Not far off Veyron pavce down the 1/4. I think they're 10.4ish.

Belts can be done for around £430. Brakes all around if you do them yourself are about £200 for decent ones. Shocks are £50 each iirc again no labour if you do them yourself. Looking at around £750ish DIY or about £900 from a garage i'd say. The main cost there is the cambelt really. If its...

It would have to be concourse condition for £3500. I hope it is for you though mate. Looking forward to the pics.

I wouldn't bother on a 182. Its only a £5K car, they arn't stolen very often anyway. A Vee, Evo, Scooby, Ferrari.... Yes but wouldn't think it was worth it on a 182.

I'd of liked one in my 172 but I don't think a 1*2's box is up to the quick shifts. Gearchange is a big let down on the 1*2's unfortunately.

Best 197 on here at the minute. One of the few that makes me want one. A credit to you mate.

Gutted for you mate. I'd of hated to have crashed my PH1. Hope you get back in one soon mate.

PH1's should be ever so slighly better. They're about 80kg's lighter.

And you paid it? I'd of got a credit card much cheaper overall, lot less interest.

Like that mate.

Love them both. I'm a secret zs fan. 182's mint as always.

Drop an F4R in it or a F7R.

I was working too. Shame I couldn't make it. Albeit I will be parking around the corner at every meet I come to in the next few months so nobody can see what i'm driving lol :dapprove:

I've always like the look of this car, now I love it. Awesome taste in mods and an awesome car. Get a Supercharger in there now ;)

The 197 quick on track. One of my fav 197's along with Kev's.

Shame to see this broken up Jamie. Looking forward to seeing the XR2 though.

That ph1 is extremely cheap. Wish i'd have got mine that cheap. PH1's are a Renaultsport connoisseur's chioce.

Any luck selling the GT yet then Jason?

This is one awesome ph1 mate. Lots of time and £ gone into it.

Nope ph1's are the best 1*2. Fact. The trophy may drive better but the ph1's are the best looking. The lightest whilst still keeping AC, ABS etc even then they're only 14KG's more than a Cup. I'm biased as i'm a ph1 fan boy but still.

Nice car. Get the F1 Cups back on though, they're a big part of what makes the ph1's look much better than ph2's.

Probably will to be honest. My head says no, however I probably will end up with another. The problem is I wouldn't want another ph1 as they're just getting older and older so will end up money pits, but can anything compare to a ph1 172 in terms of character etc. The horrific fuel consumption...

ph-ugly? They're the best looking 1*2 by far. That is unless you like your RS Clio looking like a Clio Dynamique. They have a lot more road precence than ph2 models imo. Proper aggressive old school hot hatch looks.

What makes the 197 a mistake? I know i'd rather have one over a 172 or 182.

Lovely cars. MX5's have so much win its unbelieveable.

Whats coming next? STI Scoob?

Evo??? I didn't see an Evo.
