on the for sale site under BLACK CLIO 172 £6999, SOME missing details, its a 53 reg and location is doncaster, please can someone reply to the post, i'm feeling lonely

am selling the car so needed some new rubber quick, got nakang ns2's from mytyres, 37 quid each, 6 quid fitted, they look great, and as yet cant tell any handling differences from my old conti's, i dont ever take it to the limit so they'll certainly do.... and 4 new tyres helps on a sale add as...

does that mean that its in its way out , if the bearings are whining... what will happen if i leave it...

hi, when i turn my key in the morning one turn so the lights on dash come on, there is a very noticable buzzing noice coming from the glovebox, it has 2 different pitches... it could even be described as a electric motor sort of noise... any ideas....

the fact thats its an import (arnt they all), is fine as long as its come from an EU country.. you get a 2yr deal as standard dealer warrenty, then you have to apply to reno for the third year manufacturer warrenty, this isnt standard if you got your car from cartain websites.. etc if if...

yes, there every 12 k miles up to 60 k or 3 years. so you have missed your interval, no one should miss a service as it invalidates the warrenty... lastly, once again i will pass on my service experience, 36k service at local indy garage. brilliant service, reno bits(or official...

rubbish, thet xenons are far brighter than normal lamps... what would be the point of having them otherwise..... drive a normal car at night down the same country lane straight after driving one with xenons and you will see the difference... when i got my 172, i had a fiat brava for sale.. on...

what if they offered to pay for your coffin! would that please you... i'm hoping for a couple of wheels to fall off on the motorway, that must be worth a couple of grand compo!!

which was my original point 173 messages ago, fogs give no forward vision, so to turn your main lights to half lights (never know what the term is! one turn of the stalk), is just mental, you cannot see ahead of you when there are no street lights, so anyone who does this is plain crazy..

its not, i paid about 120 all in for mine at a local garage, any one in west yorkshire pm me if u want details...

i am up to 43k miles from new, 2 small niggles, everything else fine, build quality is average, but it works all day everyday!.. only prob at the minute is what seems to be a loud buzz coming from glove box, maybe thats where electrics are located! doesn't hurt tho!

almost ready for a new set, just done 38k on a set of continentals.. mostly m/way tho, what sthe best place to get some more as cheapo as poss.. , unless theres another brand that will last as long.. cheers..

anyone, just a stab in the dark....

i have a 53 plate 172, with esp, 42k miles, all motorway, mint condition, warrenty till october, any ideas on value, i have had it from new...

not if the car is in negative equity which it probably is with 2 new models coming out since i bought it.. if i had got a bank loan i would owe about 8k on a car worth 7k, onlu if i was going to keep it 5 years and then some would it be worth paying the full ammount.. anyway this was always...

whats the deal with surrendering your car after paying 51% of finance.. wot do u do and how does it affect any future credit agreements you might take out... cheers...

what is it with the current TREND to have your lights on half beam and to have your fogs on at the same time at night time!!! i see this more and more and it is the most bizarre thing, in normal conditions fogs do not light up the road more than ten yards, about the same as half strength head...

surely you han't booked it in without getting a quote.... p.s. in a later thread u state that you have done 20k... why are u getting it done early??? i paid £60 at 12K,, £90 at 24K and £120 at 36K... cheap as chips.. all official as well!!

even more simple, you can go any where as long as its vat registered & they use genuine parts!!!

Quote: Even though I may not like it, I will have to go on my dads for the time being, it works out cheaper. as hard as it is, not building up NCB now by going on your dads will be as painful later than getting your own insurance now.. bite the bullit, get a 1.2, build up 2 years NC...

go in with a baseball bat!! knock a display stand flying etc, then ask in a calm but scary manner to see the service dept manager... youll be surprised at how good the service really can be!!!!!

went over the weekend. got soaked saturday ( abit crap, just qualifying), but yesterday afternoon was brilliant.. best bit of the day.. sat at the last but one corner watching the clio cups do their stuff, superb.. the time they spent on 3 wheels going round that corner was beyond belief!! it...
