    9 previous owners

    I'm looking at a car that is a 52 plate, 59,000 miles, FSH, did the hpi check and everything was fine, except it had 9 previous owners, just found this odd? Or is it just me? Car looks mint, not even a stone chip. What do you all think?

    Gearbox leaking alot of oil

    How much will it cost to fix roughly? I know it's hard to tell not seeing it. But its one of the seals, and I know I should get a new clutch aswell. I'm going to take it to a garage over the next couple of days, just not sure what it'll cost?

    All u know is they are 15" 18spoke OZ alloys from a 206 gti, should they fit a clio, my mates offered them to me for £50 (I know the best thing is to go round and try them on, but just wondered if anyone knows so i don't waste a trip to his) if they don't suit my 172, I'd put them on my other...
