    Police have found my 172 cup!

    Seriously mate, don't take what your insurance company say as gospel. They have a interest in letting you take the car back without further compensation and they wont tell you your rights. You need to find out for yourself what your rights are. No offence but get off your arse and speak to...

    Police have found my 172 cup!

    Think you should find out your rights and speak to your insurance company mate. I think there's a good chance you won't have to take the car back or at least be compensated for the drop in it's value as the whole point in insurance is that you are in the same financial position after the...

    Dealer has damaged car...

    If it was me then I wouldn't want to kick up any more of a fuss until the damage has been fixed. Just be glad they're repairing it and if it makes you feel better write a letter to the managing director afterwards with all the evidence and tell them how appalled you are at their incompetence...

    Hit and run

    Nice idea Ian. They're supposed to be getting back to us to tell us what they're doing about it so if I'm not happy then I'll kick up a fuss

    Hit and run

    I've reported it to the police. My pregnant girlfriend was with me at the time and was panicking so I coudn't keep following them. They confirmed the plates match the car and it's not stolen but won't tell me where they live. I doubt very much whether they've got insurance. Again...

    Hit and run

    I was hit by some prat who failed to stop on Saturday evening. I gave chase for a short while but they clearly weren't gonna stop so I let them go. There were 5 people in the car so I may have found myself in a spot of bother had they then stopped anyway! Can anyone here get me the owners...

    Would you buy a dirt cheap....

    he didn't say damaged, he said stolen recovered. It might look fine but the nobs might have driven 100 miles bouncing it off the limiter leaving you with a f**ked engine

    My airbag just went off and i didnt crash WTF?

    I know a girl who had the driver airbag go off in her saxo causing her to crash into a pub. She and her passenger had quite bad neck and back injuries requiring them to be hospitalised. Think they got compo for it, not sure who from though

    Real bad help needed

    Tell them you'll only pay the £35 if it turns out there's nothing wrong with the car. If it's broke and under warranty then you shouldn't have to pay a penny. Typical car sales customer service. Nice as pie before the sale, to**ers after

    ITG panel V K&N ??

    Oh, ok. No harm in replacing an old filter although a good clean will probably do. What make you choose is up to you

    ITG panel V K&N ??

    keep the itg. don't waste your money on something that will probably make your car a tiny bit slower. I assume you're talking about an open cone filter? Do a search, there's plenty of info on this

    £19k nova!! LMAO

    They reckon it cost £50k to build? Someone needs their head seeing to if they spent that on a nova

    someone went into the back of me

    You should have called the police at the time and tried to stop her leaving. I doubt they'll chase it up now and you'll have to deal with it through your insurance. I would have followed her home. I've known people take license numbers of hit and run drivers before and the police refused to...

    High mileage 172, worth buying?

    It's not just the engine though is it? You might end up with bills for a whole host of other stuff. Only you can decide if the risk's worth taking but with the lack of history I reckon you'll find yourself spending money on it sooner rather than later.

    HELP...selling car on finance

    Be careful if you're thinking of taking a loan to clear the finance and take advantage of a lower rate. You need to check how much interest you have left to pay as some finance companies 'front load' the interest. This means your first few payments cover the interest and the rest of your...

    Cat D info - help plz!!!

    OK, I'll put it this way. It's a good advert if you only want to sell it to someone in the trade. Why not just say it's cat c, which most people understand. I wasn't just talking about the v-car bit anyway, more the use of caps and incoherent english.

    Cat D info - help plz!!!

    ^^yes I am but so are most other car buyers. I'm not saying there's anything wrong with the car, just a crap advert

    CAM Belt snapped on my 172?

    You sure? I thought they can stretch first, messing up the timing before they eventually let go

    lost power :(

    Danny, are you sure it's down on power or could it just be perception? If it's bad enough for you to notice then it must be quite bad and I think you'd be silly messing around with other parts. Just take off the crap you've put on and got to an exhaust company that know what they're doing

    Front Suspension Top mount has Excessive play

    Fred, do you think is this why I've had an MOT advisory on excessive play in the top mount only to be told there's nothing wrong with it when I took it to the garage for replacement?

    lost power :(

    See what you're saying now. So why are people experiencing loss of power with larger bore systems? and what difference does gas velocity make? Surely its volumetric flow rate that counts?

    lost power :(

    That's what valves are for? Please elaborate. Valves are there for a reason, not sure how they're supposed to eliminate back pressure though

    Cat D info - help plz!!!

    That is a shocking advert for that ibiza! Where does he say it's cat c? and what is v-car? Sorry If I've missed something but it would help if people used some punctuation when writing adverts
