I disagree, Renaults are definately renownd for it, more so the performance cars. Renault 5, 16v clio, 19's. All hurrendous gearboxes. you only had to sneeze and you needed a rebuild.
Many thanks for your constructive post, no matter what forum your on, you can always rely on one punk with a Smart arse answer.
Anyway, cheers for your help people, I'll keep you updated
thats what I mean. I went to kwik fit to get it re gassed and they couldnt cos its leaking. If its £100 or so including the regas then fine, if not, it can stay Fooked, cos I aint spunking wedge on it
Hi all
kwik fit have reffered me to a local garage to get my air con system looked at, apparently their computer told em its got a leak somewhere. Now they said they dint know what it will cost to repair, as it depends on where it is
Just wondered if anyone can give me a ballpark figure. Are...
there are little known laws called "halves and thirds" whereby ypu can voluntarily terminate the contract by handing the keys back and walking away. The other half means they cannot repossess the car so long as hes making some sort payment, no matter how small. Consumers do have rights, just...
so whats quicker in a straight line then, CTR or 172?
I had a play with a CTR and seemed to leave him comfortably, but it seemed too comfortable for him to have been trying
Whats quicker?
Just called a breakers yard, as I need a ballast (already got 1, but nee a 2nd replcaement) and the girl asked me which side it was for??
Are they diff both sides? as the otherone I bought the guy just handed me it as if they're identical ?
the 9k will be total credit repaid, so hes prob only paying 3-4k for the car, the rest in interest.
The way I look at it is, the more nobbers like this that buy cars and line dealers pockets, the more room there is for me to haggle when I buy :)

Re: Insurance. Fookers! (young 172/182 owners look in)
yes, its not a Ferrari, but it is nhigh powered, its group 16???
Good/realistic prices is dependant on your point of view/situations, bu whichever way you look at it, its alot of sterling, and they reason they charge is lack of experience...
Re: Insurance. Fookers! (young 172/182 owners look in)
£1400 (and probably a near identical XS) still sounds liuke it costs the earth. Amazes me why younger drivers are persisstent with owbning high powered cars. Still, if you are happyto pay it then why not
Am I reading this wrong, or did you run it on just 1 litre of oil for 1300 miles?
I've had my 172 for 5000 miles and I've been keeping an eye on it because its new to me, and it hasn't used a drop
To be a dealer (for any manufacturer, be it bike or car) you have to have something like £2 million worth of stock available from the shelf at anytime. Obviously thats a massive amount of capital to have tied up in stock (escpecially at the moment with people going bust left right and centre) so...
I imagine they're a bit more driveable? and the powers more useable?
Not having to drive everywhere like your hairs on fire would be nice sometimes........... :(
