Sat Waiting..

[smiith]

For the lad to come and pick my car up :(

Cant believe he said that he would come between half 9 and 10, specialy when i was up all night with peej and jacko playing COD4

Gonna be a sad sight seeing her drive down the road in another mans hands :n:

oh well, lets hope he treats her well, and i know its staying in the North East.

[Luke]

How much did you get for it dude?

Whats next?

I was gutted seeing the VTR go on back of a trailer.

[Danr]

hate it when you have to let a car go :(

[smiith]

£950 i got for it, which isnt bad considering i payed £1200 just over a year ago, and iv put 17k on her

and iv lost about £50 total in mods that i bought then took off before the car sale and sold seperately.

Rather want a 106 quicksilver, or a Mk1 Clio, cant decide, because the clio's are oldskool cool and were my 1st car, and easy to mod, and cheap to buy...
But the 106 looks better, but costs over double to buy a decent one over a clio, but then again, i know my way around everything to do work myself...

[Danr]

Those clio's are getting on a bit now.
I could see you in a nice cinquecento. ;)

[Ryan]

queersilvers are pugs though, so people seem to think they are worth more than saxos lol!

ive seen people pay over the odds for the queersilver, so hunt wisely if getting on for a bargain.

2 grand for a 51+ plate with about 70k, not too bad if i stick to them guidelines.

or i did have thoughts of a 306 HDi, these 11 points make insurance a toughy though :P

mk1 clio ftw (my old one) used to spit flames and jump when needed :A:

[Luke]

Like the old Clio.

Whats insurance like on the HDi?

[Ryan]

2 grand for a 70k 1.4.

can pick up a furio on that milage for alot less than that which is 90% the same car lol.

mk1 clios can be interesting long term, a few 172 converted ones rock :P

[smiith]

yeh but ryan, we all know mk2 saxo's are for girls :P hard to find low milage mk1's now :(

insurance group 5 the HDi's so the same as a quicky i think :) and then front mounted intercooler :panic: could be fun

[Luke]

I'd say go for the Diesel but I'm biased.

I love the power delivery in mine.

[smiith]

been told with a remap, a 306 HDi can pump some nice power

[Ryan]

i never knew girls had more money than men...

is that why they dont buy old mk1s because they can afford the mk2 ;)

[Luke]

Yeah it will do.

Remap on mine would take me from 110bhp to 140bhp.

So about 120-130 on the 306?

[Sophia_Bush]

MK1 or MK2 westie / furio find them easy for less than 1.5k if you look.

that clios rrocks tho!!

[smiith]

girls get there daddys to buy there cars for them ;)

classic example....

my sister got 3 grand off daddy for her 1st car, i got... "sorry bud, im skint"

she wanted second car, 3 grand pops up again, i want my 2nd car "get a loan mate"

i best inherit sumat good tbh

and yeh i think you can make 130bhp with a 306 map

[Danr]

306 would be my choice. Nice and comfy :)

[-Jason-]

306 for me ;)

No idea why people think 106's are worth more worked well for me though :D

Dont know what your talking about dan

[Danr]

360 for me ;)

Gonna drive you xbox around. SWEET!

[smiith]

looking through the net im getting pulled towards 306's if im honest

[Luke]

Good lad ;)

[smiith]

seeing alot of moonstone blue, and i likeee, most are around 100k though :( but suppose thats when a D engine is just been run in..

[Danr]

They do seem to go forever. Peugeot did do some awesome engines. I think that's what sayer said anyway.

100k is nothing mate.

On the Peugeot forums there is car withs 300k plus on and the odd 400k on them.

They do indeed.

I'm sure Peugeot developed the diesel IIRC.

[-Jason-]

However diesel is the fuel of the devil ;)

[Danr]

I'm impressed by BMW's new diesels.

The new alpina 3 series cost less than a 330d, goes 150mph and they reckon you have a combined cycle of 50mpg!!!!

Is that going to be your new company car come next year? lol.

[-Jason-]

I did get done by a big jag diesel a few months ago

[Danr]

They are taking over. Ah well, if you can't beat them... shoot them :)

[-Jason-]

I will beat them with my new car ;)

[Luke]

I still believe diesel will be the way forward in years to come.

People may think a 1.6HDI is slow, but until they have driven it you don't know. Very quick, smooth delivery and pulls well.

I went out in a friends 307 hdi last week. Tbh i wasn't really that impressed with the speed but the car itself was quite pleasant. They did scrimp abit on some things though. Using the same CD player/ Air-con unit and Display as the old 206. Suppose it saved costs and does the job though.

What engine was it?

You'll find they use parts on most manufacturers?

[Danr]

Think it was the 136bhp one or very close to that. Had a sticker on the inside of the door or something.

[smiith]

and its gone :(

poor lads 20 and direct line wont insure him lol, said its a sportscar, so i gave him quinns number and he got insured for under half what direct line wanted for him if he was 21!

[-Jason-]

Let the depression commense.

I have nothing to drive or clean or tinker with lol

[Luke]

Yeah, mine has a sticker too.

A lot of people say the 136bhp model is more like a 90bhp model from what I have heard. You need a go in 1.6 ;)

[Danr]

Will always be slower than the git and handle worse ;)

[-Jason-]

Who was that aimed at lol?

[Danr]

Who was that aimed at lol?

young Luke.

[smiith]

wont be depressed, looking forward to a new car :)

something new to play with :P

[-Jason-]

I cant wait to get mine later :):)

[Danr]

What are you getting Jason.

New cars are always fun to tinker about with!
