    Aldi TT Looks like it can't make up it's mind on which is the front or rear! Not my cup of tea... especially for that price! You could get a brand new Black Edition TT for 4k less! And they're much smarter...

    Interesting times ahead.....

    You'd be surprised... GT86 is a 3 year finance deal - can't get any longer directly from Toyota it seems - so it's final 'bloom' payment value is relatively high. Clio would be 4 years - so the final bloom payment is far far less than the GT86. So the monthly payments are within £15 of...

    Interesting times ahead.....

    Yup, there's about 50 unclaimed ones in the UK (as of yesterday) so it would be one of those. Dealers seem fairly willing to mix and match parts though to get a sale... And the one I want is still available... But just had a reallllly good offer on a GT86 for similar cost per month...

    Gearbox issues:-(

    Ah dear, I feel for you dude! How old is the car? Under any kind of warranty? For a new gearbox you're looking in the region of a ~£1000 for the work if you provide a new box. I know there was a deal over on cliosport.net for subscribers who could pick up a new gearbox for £440 here =...

    Interesting times ahead.....

    So in everyone's opinion what would be my best option right about now. Currently have an 07 plate 197. I'm 100% getting rid of it this month and looking into a new car - it's starting to become a real cost to run with its unreliability... Options are a brand new 200 (on finance and p/x my...

    New 200 turbo driven.

    From what I understand (correct me if I'm wrong!) There is the proper engine sound which is piped into the cabin through a valve that opens once you hit certain RPMs But... there is also an option to have a 'engineered' digital sound piped into the cabin to make it feel more racy? I may...

    Buying a car with finance - Bank Loan

    I may have got this the wrong way round but... I could approach the bank to pay for the finance part of a car deal - and still have the baloon payment at the end? Or would I only approach a bank if I was doing a 'hire purchase' situation and would own the car at the end of the loan (with...
