I’m the same height and don’t have any problems,in fact the seat will go back about 6” further if needed. However when I bought mine the electric adjustment was completely shot.I found a child’s seaside spade wedged in the mechanism preventing any meaningful adjustment. But- clearing that only...

Having had a Mark 1 156,and a Mark 2 200, yes the steering at low speeds is quite a lot stiffer than many recent models,such as Peugeot 2008,VW Up!(don‘t you hate the apostrophe!) However all is forgiven once properly on the move when everything comes to life (light)!

I think this line of coirespondence is akin to the dreaded Politics/Religion taboo! Well left alone - otherwise our friendly web site will degenerate into the bitching of most other owner forums!

Welcome -what’s your problem?

Mine is not the clear gel but a green slime which must be at least 10 years old. Gave it a go and within 5 minutes had restored the arches to their original colour and finish! I wasted so much time and elbow grease trying to get the bumper black to work!

Just remembered that some years ago I was given an Auto Glym pack with a newly purchased car,which I never really had much need for all the many products. Having rooted it out I have found the bumper gel bottle which I will be trying tomorrow

The colour on the black arches on my GT200 are starting to look a bit uneven. Has anyone tried ‘bumper black‘ or similar .I’m not sure the composition is the same as plastic bumpers. Any suggestions -the small area I tested with T cut was not good.

What’s a suit/jacket?!!😉

Having gone for a run round the local Worcestershire A and B roads including some DCs I was appalled at the ride discomfort on the 19s which I hadn’t noticed before. Perhaps I’d been unlucky in picking such a crap route and now having a VW Up which has compliant tyre and suspension to compare on...

I could only afford it as it had been a Cat N about 3/4 years ago (front nearside I believe) and I paid £6500 in March. A few cosmetic ,rear vallance straightened and re sprayed,and full diamond cut refurb relieved me of another £1k. Mechanically it is spot on whereas my old 10 plate 156 had...

Thought I’d better put some of mine whilst it’s just had its annual wash😜! The UP! has just joined the stable having P/exd the 2008.It’s the 90ps which just scrapes under the 10 secs to 62 so is quite brisk.

Just noticed that there are 7 Rs on Autotrader which is quite a number compared with just 2 recently.

A very warm welcome. This is one of the friendliest car sites going. You might have noticed a slight spat in the last few days but that was the first time I’ve encountered any problems since I joined. Look forward to seeing your contributions I.d.c.

Perhaps it was my comment on his advert for 200GT in another section! I’ve really done my best (worse)! Should a main dealer be advertising here!I really don’t know ,but it doesn’t matter now anyway.

Dear me,my comment was very tongue in cheek with no malice implied or intended. Perhaps I got a bit close to the bone -life’s too short!

Just as a note -my Cat N 2014 200 GT with 40k Sat Nav,white leather,Xenons ,front and rear sensors,black arches,cost recently £6500 plus another £500 for full diamond cut refurbished alloys. I know it was bought privately but just as an example of being able to buy a much more expensive car...

Was just thinking ,good idea having an extra warning set of brake lights!! Just don’t get carried away next time -check your facts -or just ask us!!😜

And I’ve just fitted some leather fitted covers which do the job but not anywhere as good as that finish. However I know that it’ll never scratch . They weren’t cheap either (£70) -how much for the respray?

A couple of years ago I paid £339 for HPFP from Neo Bros (Saab and Mini specialists) and I think £100 for fitting at local garage.

Just discovered that I can programme in to allow the wing mirrors to tilt downwards when reverse gear selected. This was one thing that I really missed on my last Z.. Had it on a 607 some years ago and thought it one of it’s best features particularly useful to me as a Private Hire operator...
