    172 Insurance Nightmare

    Da-aaa-aaamn at 18 (1st year driving) I had to fork out £1800 for a very-bottom-of-the-range, un-turbo-diesel 1.5 Corsa. Easy to forget how much the companies tear holes out of the young driver market

    £200 a month 200 back again?

    Ah! I see, wondered how it could be flashy but cheap. Answer -Because it's a waste of space. Still, S1600 doesn't sound bad, could it be a factory-fitted mountune kit?

    There's plenty about, just need to try a few first. £3k will net you a decent enough 172, just budget for higher running costs than you're used to

    My new LY R27, pictures :)

    Sure you do..... you do really. WHen I visited renault for a quote on a 197+Cup I couldn't untick the box for the extra body trimmings, no matter how much I tried to reason with myself. Luckil,y other things happened which said my finances wouldn't cope in any case

    Car cuts out when the clutch is pressed/low revs..

    Had a similar problem on my MX-3, caused by an air intake hose being split after the MAF. Check your induction?

    Any ideas why my insurance is so high?

    Lets not forget thesee are french cars, so liable to spit a wheel at any given moment, causing a multi-million pound pile up with debris flying through primary school windows, killing multiple little cherrubs,

    Any ideas why my insurance is so high?

    use the site to get a quote, then ring and get it all confirmed from a person. dont use the codes or references given by the site. besides, the commision isn't that high on any of the sites, they work on small margin, high turnover.

    Flashing brake lights like a vxr

    it's the "emergency braking" warning. made to alert people following that they need to take ewasive action or go for the anchors, because, of course, drivers are incapable of judging that the distance between them and the car in front is narrowing at an alarming rate. If you somehow linked...

    comparisons are a good starting point. no sense ringing around the whole world when you can discount a whole bunch of companies with a few clicks

    After watching Cannonball Run 2 and a bit of googlage afterwards, I must now find myself a Sterling Nova. Check them out, they are, quite simply, brilliant. Well, for a 70's designed kit-car, based on a VW Beetle. Someone's been building themrecently, since there's some examples with RX-8...

    Remove acoustic valve intake, chuck in high-flow panel filter then red-line it everywhere. You'll be really popular

    fuel consumption rs 200 ?

    each tank of fuel in my 172 winds up around 35mpg, including london commuting and some long runs (Essex / Cambridge / Lincs). If it was just motorway work at legal speeds, it easily breaks 40mpg, with cruise and climate engagedm no doubt I could improve on that but, well, may as well get a...
