Newbie - Essex

[daveyc2k2]

Hi guys, I am new here, I currently drive a MINI Cooper but am looking at getting a RenaultSport 182 Clio very soon (maybe this weekend).

Have been on the MINI scene for 2 years and enjoyed the shows etc and was hoping there is a similar type thing for the Clio's.

Glad I found this place and hope to stick around and get plenty of help & advice!!

Cheers,

Dave

Welcome, Where abouts in essex are you from?
What colour 182 are you after?

 

[daveyc2k2]

I'm not sure what colour really, either Blue, Silver or Black. I like them all!!

I'm from a small town about 15mins from Chelmsford!!

Good to have another newbie close to home! Keep your eyes peeled for some local meets, you can come and have a look at a few!

Hi and welcome, what small town 15 mins for Chelmsford would that be?

 

[daveyc2k2]

It's called South Woodham Ferrers!! Anyone heard of it??

 

[E11OOT]

Yes, play pool there quite frequently. I have a friend who lives near the Asda there.

 

[daveyc2k2]

Ok that's cool!! I guess you play in the Rileys there then!! I used to go in there quite a bit!!

yeah loose the cooper....my mate did exactly the same and he hasnt looked back since. Cooper to clio sport 182 is a nice move imo

 

[E11OOT]

Yeah Rileys, there are a couple of meets that happen local to you so keep and eye out in the Local Meetings section. Good if you could make it to some of them to meet the locals!

nice car, just make sure it has had all the important belts changed.

 

[daveyc2k2]

Yeah they haven't been changed but bargained down the price taken the cost of the belt changes into view!! Managed to knock them down to £5,100.
