A bit too much tyre dressing, but it looks a nice car. They've made an effort with the presentation.

Did you wash it after that and make it look shiny? 😀

There's a black one on eBay with 132,000 miles on the clock. Apart from a suspension pin being an advisory the MOT history is good. Worn and bald tyres have been flagged a number of times, but that isn't a car fault.

I thought you were specifically wanting those wheels designs? When you click on the advert the R wheels are £220 and £166 for the other design. The used wheels that have come up on eBay the sellers have been asking similar money and sometimes more. I don't think you'll save much money going...

Those prices are brilliant. We can't buy them in the UK for anywhere close to that.

I don't know what the diesel additives are like, but the Prince engine responds really well to Millers Petrol Ecomax. They sell a diesel version too.

A few different cars coming up in the last few weeks. A couple of the slow sellers have gone. There is now three grey cars up for sale. That must be a first.

Does one side of the car look a little lower than the other? Coil springs are very prone to breaking.

I doubt the usual PDR guys will sort that. Even if they do manage to pull the dent the paint is too damaged. It'll need to be painted.

I suspect the car was previously a write off and the seller realised the work was too much. He's sent it back through the auction looking straighter than it did previously, but masking the damage. There is this website. https://www.vcheck.uk/ It might have the history of a previous salvage...

I've got a slight amount of lag using bluetooth. Watching a video the sound is slightly out of sync. Skipping a track on Spotify has got a slight delay too. It's nothing bad.

That car also had an MOT advisory to change the front discs. Given the profit margin the guy was making it was something I'd have expected him to do. £13k for a write off isn't exactly cheap. I've not seen it in the classifieds after the advert here.

What is visible isn't enough to make it CAT N. I'm sure once the ill-fitting bumper comes off there were be more damage to sort underneath. The last CAT N car didn't go for much.

Unless you know what you're doing I wouldn't be going near a write off requiring repair. That car is a CAT N write off and I suspect the damage is more than what is instantly visible. The last MOT flagged up all brake discs are worn and the car has a coolant leak. Those wheels have to be fixed...

Why do you need to replace them? Are they damaged, or could something like polishing save the current ones?

I had the wrong plugs in my car when I bought it. It was Mini plugs in my car. ECP are currently £70 per set. Autodoc are £40 +P&P for the proper R plug. Full RRP is too high for plugs and dealers will charge labour more than the 10 minutes it takes to change them.

I just responded to you post on another thread. I use the Car Scanner app with my Bluetooth dongle.

The fault codes reset themselves after a number of restarts if the fault is gone. You can get a cheap Bluetooth dongle and software for a mobile phone that can read and reset fault codes. The software is free if you watch an advert or just a few pounds for advert free.

Try Millers Ecomax. You can get it from Halfords. It used to be £14, but it's now up to nearly £19. I put 100ml in for a tank. The bottle is 500ml. I find the car drives noticeably smoother, sharper and returns slightly better MPG.

Here is the Peugeot 308 GTi discs Godspeed make. https://www.godspeedbrakes.co.uk/discs-/455-308-gti-front-2-piece-discs-and-bells-.html They are two piece. The silver brake disc can be removed from the black bell. Once the brake discs are worn you replace the disc and use the bell again. In...
