buyin a 172

[Big Iain]

YEAH IM OFF TO LOOK AT ONE IN THE MORN. ITS AN 02 PLATE SO DOES ANYONE KNOW WHAT I SHOULD BE LOOKIN FOR ESPECIALLY WHEN I SEE IT?

Itll still be under warranty, so not too much to worry about.

Try CB1A and see why its being sold when its so young?? maybe it was a refused car. And find out how much warenty work its had. You dont want to buy one which has allways had more that its fair share of problems.

O ye and check to ensure somone hasnt crashed it and quickly sold it on cos it never was quite right as they used a cheap garage to fix it up.

1. Rev it to 4k revs and lift of the gas and listen for an exhaust vibration. You could get this fixed under warranty though (if it has any)

2. Check that all washer balls are present and correct.

_KDF...buy 2 (you know youll need another spare for when one of them pops again)

Ye probably best..

I actually started laughing when I noticed it missing.. cause I had heard about them falling out on the forums..

I think there should be a renault recall for "deffective washer balls"

LOL

This is a warranty item so it covered.

KDF, acording to CB1A, they are about £6ish plus vat and 1 hours labour charge (£50)!!!!!!!!!! By far the most expensive bit of plastic EVER IMHO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Thats why I STILL have one of the little crettins missing...
