  TRACK CAR BREAKING

my insurance is with admiral in my own name with my parents on , a 10 months bonus accelerator with a £900 crash claim and 1 years NCB and its £2300 fully comp with exhaust and coilovers declared and i live in a granny village lol..

Woah, expensive insurance.

And you picked a pretty perfect 182 from Davis88.

Where abouts do you live, midlands ?

It will be cherished !!
I didn't think it would be as good as it is on fuel. In averaging about 35.8 mpg with little drives to work and back. A bit of motorway and town driving I did 41.6 to a full tank. And in the way home from collecting the car I got 46.7 mpg :)
Feather foot :)

hello, nice lowered RB.

do you have some problems with rubbings on the front and rear on ktec coilovers ?

Thats a stunner

and i would have thought your insurance would be more than that tbh! (being 17 im just under 2k on a 1.2 !! )

I like a lot, what a difference a decent exhaust makes to the back of these!

Thanks alot for the nice comments people :).
I was paying 3000 on my Vts when I was 17.
The coilovers hardly rub except the front right wheel :-s. Think the shock might me on it's way out..

Been having a look at throttle bodies .. But I have seen good RR with standard ecu's.
For people that might be thinking daddy paid he hasn't.
My parents paid for 10 driving lessons for my 17th and all the rest has been paid by my £6 Mcdonalds wage :-(

WTF... The most I've ever paid for insurance was £1150.. And that's on my 172 this year!

My previous 2 cars were like £450 for my punto, then £900 for my modified Clio 1.2.

How on earth can you afford all that working at maccy d's? You must have spent every penny you've earned on cars!
Thats dedication

well most of my money has come from buying and selling the above cars..
i made a profit on nearly all of them except the mk1 clio!
im not going to lie but i did borrow some money to buy my new car!
i got a good deal tho with borrowing it tho...

im leaving mcdonalds in starting work with my older brother he has a 10 year contract with kier group in london and kent doing house improvements, basically restoring everything after the skanks that sponge everything off the council move out!
im gunna be getting paid about a £100 a day so gunna spend a fair bit on the car hopefully :)
thanks for the comments people !

Fair play with keeping yourself in the green after buying and selling your previous cars. The 182 will soon change that, laugh out loud!
 
  Clio 197
Really clean looking 182, shame you didn't like the Festa, 1.7 ZS's seem quite popular, no match for a car with 50+HP extra out of the box though!
 
Again, cannot understand how you can afford to buy, run and insure those cars and your only 19!? Im guessing no bills to pay, but nice 182.
 
  TRACK CAR BREAKING
each month my out goings are about £350 for bills... i paid my insurance off in one..
its a pain in the arse tho .. next year in june i have insurance tax and mot at the same time :(
then im ment to be going on holiday in july :(
