Good find mate! Havent seen this website! I feel a TG article coming on
-
I work for BG Group (Not British Gas)
on-site audio visual technician.
-
I work in the industry too, wish I got a payrise! Where do you work?
-

Excellent!
I used to do a lot of business miles with my old company. Back then I would drive the 205 and leave the P1 at home.
Used to make about £100 a month on fuel expenses!
-
Ah I see, ha! I'd have it too just for the sake of it.
What other films was it in?
-
I've got 800 miles out of £80 worth of diesel in my 307 in the last couple of weeks. Thats 66MPG!
After taking the P1 out at the weekend for the first time in 6 months, I put £40 V-Power in and got 130miles, couldn't believe it, forgotten what it's like! I thought the fuel gauge was broken! haha.
-
I can't see the reg? just a showplate?
-
Excellent! wondering if they'll show it on ITV4s TT coverage tonight?

Last year, my old job was within walking distance from my house.
In Jan, I started a job that's a 70mile round trip a day.
Rathering than racking up the miles on my P1 and paying through the teeth for fuel, I decided to buy a Peugeot 307 2.0 HDi in March.
I'm glad I did, I've done 7,000 miles since March and have been averaging 60mpg. I've only done 10,000 in the last 2 years in my P1 so I'd have been gutted if I'd put 7,000 miles on her in 3 months!
Having a MultiCar policy with Admiral for both cars and the amount it costs to run the 307 and the price I paid for it, I expect to start breaking even in about 12months time! by then, the car, insurance and fuel would have paid for it's self compared to how much the Subaru would have cost to run to working and back everyday!

Keep hold of 'em, keep 'em clean!

Little do you know, the first text "oi, who've you been giving my number to? Just had a phone call from some bloke called michael" was kind of both our idea. Ha ha!
-
Ha ha, mike, Matty, both of your cars are more common than mine it seems!
Suck it up commoners! I may have no turbo but there's less than 200 of em!
Ha ha, there's a reason there is less than 200
By the way, don't give peoples mobile numbers out to strangers

Interesting
but 50 22B UK's LOL I thought there were only 20 ish Uk's the rest were JDM's
I supose it's HOW they are registered and not what they are
Yeah, I was thinking that!
Unless it's imports too?
-
Ha ha shut it! there was 1000 at one time!
Email this guy from the Richard Burns Foundation: roughcutflex@gmail.com
Ask him to register the WR1 as a tribute car.

Thinking about it, I don't drive any cars with more than two doors......P1, Pug 307 and Pug 205. All 2 doors!
Mind you, I have used the boot of the 205 to gain access on cold mornings before!
-
Nice one, yeah I know Ian did! I asked him at the time actually, just never got round to doing it!
I'll give them a try for the wheels I think, Ian's looked very well done!
Any ideas for body work? small dings and small scratches?
Thanks again
Mike

Hi All
I'm wanting to have my alloys refurbished and a few tiny little dings and scratches sorted out, nothing major, they just annoy the hell out of me!
Alloys are the big ones though, mine are starting to fade ever so slightly.
Anywhere in Oxon/Berks you can recommend you lovely people you?

I like the wagons very much! I'm happy with my P1 though mate
-
Nice to know there's another P1 in Oxfordshire
Look forward to them crossing eachother one day!
Mike
-
Excellent, I will do mate!
I look forward to seeing the RB5! I'm gutted I can't take the P1, insurance doesn't kick in 'till 1st June. Saved a few pennies waiting 'till June though! £450 fully comp isn't bad for a 22 year old!

Ah bummer, no I won't. Just realised I'm at Glastonbury that weekend!
