[Nathan_c2]

bring ya tripod and we will get sum pics like when u took them pics of mikes car and everyone elses

[C2raig]

Mind you, we'll have to go to the block yard/sea front if you want decent photos, you'll not get a good quality pic in a retail park.

[Nathan_c2]

no bother, aslong as the weather is nice

[C2raig]

It was raining when I did Phil's, Mike's, Ross' and mine down the yard.

[Hitty86]

:D

[Nathan_c2]

i really enjoyed driving that focus around, and skidding in the gravel was canny fun aswell :P i need to stop it tho cos i cant afford a new clutch untill after FCS, i hope it gets me there

[C2raig]

Nathan - just crash the gearbox ;)

[Nathan_c2]

FU*K that, it has to get me to FCS and back yet

[C2raig]

Crashing a gearbox is great fun! I once had to do it on a Rover 800.

[Nathan_c2]

yeah, its fun when u can afford new parts :D
i aint walking again

[C2raig]

Mate, I'd seriously consider buying a cheaper car and using the cash to run it :/

[Nathan_c2]

i aint gettiing anything worse than a C2, it has to be better or nothing

[Phill106]

then u might want to start seriously savin for a new thrust bearing and clutch plate. it sounds poorly :( and if u aint changing gear then get ur foot on the floor!!!! its whats caused it in the 1st places, never ride the clutch.

[Nathan_c2]

i know, i know
if worse comes to worsted i will use me insurance money to pay for a new clutch, its shud last aslong as i remember not to skid about and rest me foot on the clutch

[Phill106]

treat it gentle lol not heard a bearing make that sort of noice in a long time lol.

[Nathan_c2]

i deffo will be until after FCS, that the main worrie atm, getting there and back without it breaking

[C2raig]

Unless you know how to crash the gearbox properly, I wouldn't chance driving a car with a clutch as bad as they said it was over any sort of distance. I wouldn't want to lose the clutch in the middle of a motorway overtake. Either that, or chop it in before it starts costing serious money. Flog me that private plate (:P) and use the money to buy a new clutch and give it a fettling, see if you can sort out the fuel guzzling issue.

[Nathan_c2]

stuff selling my plate, ive just got it, if i manage to sell the stock front and rear lights and the stock stereo then ill use some of that to get a new clutch

[C2raig]

I know where I would have put my money :shock:

[Nathan_c2]

where is that then

[C2raig]

A number plate would be last on my list, put it that way.

[Nathan_c2]

hahaha, well me parents game me £500 for me 18th plus other gifts and they said they would rather i bought something with it instead of using it on insurance so i thought i would buy a personalised plate

[C2raig]

I wish my parents would give me £500 :shock:

I didn't buy my personal plate until I had finished my car, paid my dad back for it, and replaced the roof.

Does anyone want a number plate that spells ASTRA V if you space it illegally? :lol:

[Hitty86]

nope if it said CLIO 172 though... hmmm

[C2raig]

If you spaced mine right...

[Hitty86]

lmao!.. with the screw covers in the right places ;)

[LEANNE_GT]

lol, nath to be honest wen i had a go of urs car it didnt seem all that bad!!! best to tell if ur clutch is on its way is to put ur hand brake on, put it into 5th gear and get ur bite point!! if u can feel it pull then its ok, just dnt ride it to much tho, trust me :-) thats how mark found out his was ok!! but it did go in the end!! not till ages after!!! x

[Hitty86]

is it slipping when ya changing gear at higher revs?

[Nathan_c2]

nope, nothing like that, just that you can hear the bearing when you press the clutch, its hard to expain as im not a mechanic but phill and baz could hear it the other night

it shuold hopefully last a few more months if not another year, fingers crossed
