Thats all it is im afraid Pat......................a deam, but a bloody nice one :yes:

Going to be driving through the peaks tomorrow on above road so keep your eyes peeled. Will hopefully post some pics if the missus plays ball and plays camera girl! If anyone knows this road and owt to say about it let me know....................i only know the route from Manc to Buxton so will be entering unknown territory!

just a slight change then.............. you lucky man......married and a fat (or should that be phat?) car!!!!! All the best, hope you have a good un........................no excuse for being late is suppose

love the green rims

they r nice..........any pics????? an you can post some of the KTM too

look at the posts on here about spec-it changed 56/07 to include jumbo box aux point.............look out for water stains in boot area and parcel shelf as many suffer from this.........they let water in after its raining when you open boot............otherwise usual stuff when buying a used car........tyre tread

pro race do look good.....maybe its cos they is black not sure about those BBS' Jay........a little bit too bling.......i like the simple ones.......... Pro race dont cost £600 dabs either

Brimma Defo the audis.......you get em in silver, i'll have em in black! Jay....the link doesnt work......what could the spanner be?

Simples really-try and keep a steady speed and reduce the amount of time you are braking and then accelerating back up.......drive as smoothly as you can and the engine is flexible enough to bimble along in 5th. If you put the info display on current mpg setting it can help you to be disciplined.........it can also show you how low mpg drops when you acclerate hard-5mpg! to be honest though dont worry too much about it-they aint the thirstiest of cars even when you rag em! enjoy

rdjwarren its already been said.....................if you live in manc no garage ten it costs stupid to insure a vrs. im 36 4 yrs ncd and pay 630 with axa. just found out they wont insure any mods :'( had silly quotes for 1-2 grand 3 grand excess. the big insurance swindle grrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr

same for me.....wind around the wing mirrors and at around 50mph.....it aint the quietest car. also begining to find the limits of the sound system.........no bass to speak of otherwise still loving it after a year

its cos they are skint in loads of debt and trying to claw cash back....................you can get a twingo renault sport for less than a 1.25 fiesta zetec mmmmmmmmmmmmmmm no brainer

awesome family cars and a fair bit less manic than the type r........you dont have to thrash it to get the best.........although those hondas sure like to rev and would be faster on a twisty road. Take your time looking assaid above......prices have gone up but what i can remember about the mk1 type r is that they hold their value fantastically well so you should get some cash to bargain with also agree mk1 vrs a great bargain

ill prob make it along too.... 1) Jaymd 2) Smiffy 3 f's jnr (Phil) 3) yashicamat 4) Danroly

Cheers Devon...........i thought string may come into it i would like to go to the ring but a track virgin my brother lives about 250km from the ring so thinking about combining the 2 depending on time off work/family/funds. will keep an eye on the thread dan

whats a ball park figure for cost guys?

your not old pete.......just mature........did you get it from Viz? Brimma- dont pull me on my spelling/grammar

nice car mate......................you could prob have a bugati veyron and still pay less than me.....................manchester awful for insurance. that quote was the chaepest by over £200 and i did have a good shufty around but cheers for the advice

they look ace but i know what you mean......................same as a yellow vrs, looks great...........takes guts and a nice neighbourhood (or top security) to buy one

got the tyres from camskill and what a good service that was £170 for 2 tyres plus £15 a corner to fit at ATS aint bad........better than $130 -£170 a tyre at kwick fit. main cost insurance........£650 :'(

paying hardly owt over 2 yrs which means i got cash in the bank to spend on family.............put a huge deposit down so borrowed a tiny amount........ not that im justifying my own actions. who doesnt pay finance of some kind................???? mortgage anone......unless you mega rich westalic? lucky you if you are

a thumbs up from me too. The tyre pressure warning light came on on tuesday and after checking them and adding air light still on, thought i best get it checked out. on my way to Kwik siht i realised Hobbin right opposite so took it there. only had to wait 5 mins before a tech came and looked at it. puncture in off side rear........new vreds They fixed it for free and checked the oil and tyre treads on front and advised on these. got made a brew and sat reading, watching tv and talking with friendly staff-cheers to Charlie Kwik fit would have cost me no doubt and they would have tried to rip me off on the tyres too. Nice 1 Hobin

had my octy vrs a year at start of march.......love it but they aint cheap! this month i will have paid out £1, 429 on the car for tax, insurance,1st MOT, 2 new Vreds, a service and the monthly finance............and thats not including petrol or if owt needs doing on the car!!!!! If i see you at the next meet and i bring my own fizzy drink you know why i'm being tight!

wow bet it goes like stink. what do you reckon the 0-60 time is?
