My R32

[Adam_C]

I thought you used to have an R stink i remember seeing your name about on the R32oc forum.

Yeah used to have one had to sell it, just over a year now , got made redundant and couldnt afford to insure and run it bloody shame as I adored that car  but ill have one again some day! just glad ive at least owned one 

Thats gutting mate, tbh its a nightmare to run especially with the fuel costs at the moment i just about see 18 to 20mpg around town, i try and only use it at the weekends as my toy, i tortured myself slightly today because i went and had a look at a mint Evo 7 with a few choice mods taking it to 400bhp and i was really contemplating part exing mine but i just couldnt i love it to much.

And you thought the R was expensive to run.

i chatted with the owner for a good hour about it and he says its all a myth regarding servicing costs etc, as long as you change the oil regularly which i would do anyway as i do this with the R you will be fine, he said it does 18 to 20 mpg which is the same as mine. obviously parts could be slightly more expensive but this is the risk you take i suppose.

thats the only thing i dont ,miss and yeah with the price of fuel i think i would only be able to run it at wkends as well! saying that its kind of gettign like that with the mk2! and thats only a 1.8 16v  but would save me a ton in petrol costs
