Just awesome! A beautiful car! What do Vees go for now? I thought about one a few years back when they were £15K but went for an Elise 111 instead. Great move as I only lost £100 in depreciation on the Elise in 6 months of ownership! I know what you mean about sense of occasion though, what a...

What mix of tyres do you have? They are 205/45/16 on a 182 right?

That looks great! I also fitted a Fabia splitter one mine and they look amazing! Did you glue one corner piece back on or cut both sides off? Can you give us the dimensions of the plate so we don't make the same mistake and order the wrong size? Cheers!

Problem solved! The top rubber donuts were upside down. They must have been changed in the past and put the wrong way up. When I copied them putting hem back together, this was the result! Also the reason the car looked too high when I bought it! Thanks for all your help! FYI: The donuts...

Thanks for the fast reply!

As in the top picture or bottom? Thanks in advance!

Racing Blue 182 Heading up the hill past Dallington. Plate started L**

All that and drop a few psi out the tyres too so they don't spin up as easily! Remember to top them back up on the way home though!!!

Fuel economy is enough reason to go for a 172 over say a 197! It was our reason! Can't wait to see it, sounds just like what we went for!

I hear you! Maybe I'd feel better though if the top mounts were sitting properly. I have a nagging doubt I did something wrong!

I am in the same situation! Had a 172 6 years ago. Sold it for an Impreza, then an Elise, now back in a 172! Started a business and now other things are a priority! loving minting up the 172 though, brings back good memories! Post pics, very interested in how you get on.

Yeah, both those pics are of the car sitting on the ground! Doesn't seem right hey?
