I'm after the sportlines in the for sale section at the minute, I want a subtle drop, just slightly lower than the pros.
I wouldn't bother to be honest, but having the car on a modified policy drops the insurance by £250, and the springs are £150 tops so I end up quids in!
Yeah, did about 100 miles in it today, and it is just perfect!
Hopefully got a set of eibach springs on the way, then I'll get a cheaper good splitter on the front, and job done!
Don't think it will be going for a good amount of time, i just love it!
No mate left that one.
I've got an 05 Silver with cup packs. Done 35k miles, just had the 36k service with aux belt, FRSH. I love it!
Was shocked at the speed I could carry through the bends compared to the Lupo and my lowered 1.2 (gay comparrison i know!) without even trying!
I'll try and get some tomorrow. Needs some Eibachs and a splitter, and then some silver visions and it will do for now!
It is amazing, wasn;t sure how I would react to it, but I think it's safe to say after my short stint in a german car (which was awesome but something was missing) I am...
Picked up my 182 today, and oh my god it is fricking awesome! :D
Everything about it is amazing, handling, speed, economy. The car is everything and more than what I expected.
Just love it!
I think it is pretty safe to say this car will be staying for a good amount of time, actually can't...
Thanks Silverfox.
I need it mainly because the speedo on ym new car isnt the most accurate! And thought I may as well get a satnav over a road angel.....but might try and find a cheap one of both!
I'm after the cheapest place for a tomtom one with uk & roi mapping.
Found a decent one on ebay but just finding out if it has the mapping. Anyone know anywhere thats good?
Unsure as to why they won't insure you with points. When I first got mine it made £13 difference, now it makes no difference at all.
Yeah I'll give you a hand mate
I'd just wait mate, definately not worth all that money for what is technically not useful as no claims. As soon as you go back to them for a requote they will rip your teeth out.
Seems pricey on a 106 though?
I've sent them an email, might try and give them a call if I get chance.
My rear plate has a border so if I can get a front one then it will match, saves me buying 2 new plates!
Don't do the bonus accelerators mate.
I did 2 and nearly shot myself in the foot big style. Luckily NU messed up on my proof of no claims form but not worth it, basically a wasted 10 months unless you stay with them for 4 years.
Can I get a 3/4 plate for the front that comes with a thin black border around the edge?
Looked on the usual websites but none have the option.
I've sent a few emails but just wondered if anyone knew?
Modified insurance is cheaper with Flux, fact.
Changing to a 182 soon, and for a standard one the extra I needed to pay on top of my current policy on the Lupo was just under £600.
After buying a car with different wheels, exhaust and suspension to declare then only want about £470 on top...
