    That's a nice 166! Is the the 2.5 or 3.2?

    Its a 2.5 :)

    It makes all the right sounds :D

    Theres a bit of damage to the rear quarter but I'll sort that :)

    It needs a good service and a good clean! Clutch is non existent and it kangeroos while driving :( but I'll get to the bottom of that :)

    For now, I'll leave it there and it will give me something to look at in the mornings :p

    The Momos are very comfortable. I sat in my girlfriend's Corsa yesterday and it was like sitting on rocks compared to them.

    Delighted for you man!Hope it's a good 'un! Ah lovely, starting the diesel in the 159 reminds me that I miss dads 166. Possibly the most sorted 166 out there and some oul 'wan has it in Cork I believe! The Momo's are quite fabulous alright! Seem to wear the miles really well too.

    The 166's do eat tyres though front and rear and the air-conditioning/climate control is sh1t too! :D
