  1. Might have been me, but ive seen 2 other silver beasties round croxley as well :0)
  2. Thanks for the warm welcome peeps... as for the performance cars, yeah got the bug at 21 when i bought my elise (had a 1.4 corsa before that and as much as i thought she was performance, she clearly wasnt!) never looked back since
  3. Do you use the car everyday? I looked at getting some a few times for varying cars, but decided against it due to them needing re-adjusting from time to time. So went down the powerbox route instead for the corsa (sold the other cars instead lol) - less power then throttle bodies. But less grief from my understanding
  4. I gotta £60 fine for the plates on my focus, ive had the plates on there for 3 years. and had the same number plate for 8 years so i was a little miffed when they did tug me. Especially since ive been stopped for other stuff during that time and theyve not mentioned it. You cant get points, but they can make you get an MOT, fine you and remove your rights to that plate if its personalised.
  5. What is with the blue hair anyway.. how is that meant to hide the fact your grey?!!!!
  6. Oh hell yeah!!! I sooooo want one of those scooter things but like you its gonna be decked have alloys and potentially nos
  7. If its any help to you, one of my friends (or god as i call him) is an almighty mechanic and the only guy i would ever trust with any of my cars (im always the one that gets crap service in dealers) his garage is in Iver if you want his number drop me a pm as hes a proper old skool mechanic who knows cars rather then plug them in to see what the problem is - although he can plug them in as well.
  8. Ive still got the corsa and rs, loopys just in addition, im gonna be like one of those old ladies that stinks of piss but instead of collecting cats its gonna be cars lol
  9. Mine came in as a part ex at one of the dub dealers at my work. Shes a W plate Jazz blue 1.4 s with 60k on the clock and they gave £1700 for her. Believe it or not she was actually one of the most expensive i found (i was looking for one for about 3 months before i got this one). They ranged from £950 for a T plater with 100k on the clock to loopy. I just missed out on the tdi sport (cant remember the age) but it had 40k on the clock and they had given 2200 for it, but it must have been under 5 years old or we couldnt have retailed it. Beware if they offer you silly money on your lupo as they will be taking that money out of the profit on the audi, so you will be in negative equity so to speak on the audi. and the audi was overpriced. So haggle your discount first on the new car, before negotiating your lupo price
  10. arrrgh why cant people drive and have some respect for other peoples things!! I say its an excuse to modify
  11. lol ive had the corsa for years and years now, shes been in many different forms. But im pretty happy with her now, when the engine first went in she got 260 on the rollers, when she went on a few years ago she got 229 on the last run on a baking hot day so she should be running about 240ish on a normal day. Shes also on air ride. As for the RS she is the best car i have ever owned or driven (shes better then the elise, scooby, s3 etc etc ive had) soooo much fun.
  12. the dealer claim their money from Volkswagen, so its not the dealer carrying the cost to replace it. They need to get their money from VW to be able to do the work. Keep on with VW UK (although from my experiance with work) they are an absolute shower of useless morons - but thats just my experience lol You need to get them on side to pay for the work unfortunately Which dealer did you take it to?
  13. Its such a shame so many morons got hold of saxos and ruined them. They could be and are lovely cars. VTR's / VTS's So much performance for your pennies-even new. Personally if i was going to buy one now i would probably go for a 106 GTi purely because of the bad rep the saxo has and I prefer the interior of the 106. Its different cars for different people though, if we were all the same we would all drive the same cars.
  14. and i really should get some pics of my little lupo!!
  15. Hello everyone, Thought id best say hello. Im Vikki from Hertfordshire, ive got a 1.4 Lupo S. Got her back in June to help save the miles and pennies on my Focus RS. Shes saved me a fortune, as well as given me many smiles. Ive also got a 2.0 Turbo'd Corsa
