From the car leaving the bodyshop

To a brief introduction to a pheasant.

Did have to laugh at the feathers strewn down the car.

Think people in the carpark thoughti was going all basil fawlty as I ripped the splitter off!

Is it just me or does that rear wheel look a shocking angle!

 

[maynard]

I don't think so lol. I've left the atrader ad running as I've paid for it, but I'm enjoying it so much at the moment, and I don't want to think how much I'd need to spend on another car to get it as suited to my needs.

And for some reason people seem really worried by the service history, on a 10yr old shopping trolley. If I'd known I would of 'fixed' it. I can get a fsh within a day lol.

Whats the thing on the grille under the badge for?

This is Cliosport remember. The home of the dullard.

When I had my van up for sale some guy asked me if it had any history. I said no, its done 180,000 miles and its still on the original cambelt. He said not to worry, he doesnt want to buy a van that cant prove the mileage.....

If I was going to clock it I think i'd have gone for something a little lower!!

Gutted mate. At least it's just the splitter. Get one of those scoda ones for a tenner What was it in the body shop for in the first place?

 

[yellowbelly]

i know what you're saying Dan but often its a piece of mind thing, if it all looks good on paper aswell as in the flesh chances are you'd go for it and hand over your hard earned. People are so worries about being stung when buying second hand cars.

personally unless it ticks 4 of my 5 boxes i'm not interested, thats just how i operate.

 

[fUbAr]

Love it.

 

[Fred@BTM]

service history?

^funny thing is you should ask how the dent on warrens car got there in the first place

 

[Mr Burns]

Does this mean that it's still a possibilty that the Clio may come out to play once again instead of me fearing that you may buy an MX-5?

 

[Tigger]

Roy :lolup: I love that show!

Warren - hope you get sorted but what did Fred mean?

 

[ForceIndia]

I understand the fsh debate, but it's a 10yr old track car. For me, recent maintenance is massively more important than wether a spotty oik at Renault did an oil change 8yrs ago. Most likely with the wrong grade.

The dent was self inflicted, I closed the garage door onto the rear 3/4. Luckily no bodywork has been damaged by the bird, rad hasn't been hit, so just the splitter.

Good job I feathered ()the throttle tbh. In the greatest cs tradition I really should of dropped a cog and avoided the bird with a dab of oppo.

Are you sure it wasn't the bird? :rasp:
