Re: SHOW US YOUR WHEELS !!! (no turinis or stds ) Lets see something different !! That looks sweet! Good stance

​ Yea that'd be cool and slow it down so I can hear my Chav chariot on the 421! (the other ph1)

Not much of exhaust soundtracks as i was hoping for! - only scottys. I ragged it past on the 421, was hoping to hear how chav mine sounds from the outside! cant even tell cos its all sped up.. Never mind, still a nice little vid - didnt realize how many from the west mids there were.

Yeah visibility in that spray got down to a sphincter clenching level!

Lookin forward to seein vid. Tho the convoy got split up a bit, was pushing it in that rain tryin to catch back up! i never really talked to anyone when I got to duxford, the museum was calling, and as nice as clios are, there's some awesome machines at duxford... ​I'll try and come to the next...

Re: SHOW US YOUR WHEELS !!! (no turinis or stds ) Lets see something different !! I really want some 182 or cup wheels. I reckon it'd look nice on it - anthracite but darker than the Renault anthracite

Re: SHOW US YOUR WHEELS !!! (no turinis or stds ) Lets see something different !! I am, for the right price... ​

Junglist is selling a good engine with all replaced belts for £200, I'd swap the engine. & id prob try and get the car for cheaper make a daft offer, u never know! most ppl break them to try and recuperate some money back, not for gains! interior, wheels, exhaust if stainless, bumpers wings...

Re: SHOW US YOUR WHEELS !!! (no turinis or stds ) Lets see something different !! 17" not sure of make, possibly ripspeed? they rub on full lock...

​excellent stuff! I'll cya tomorrow then

ah incidentally i paid for membership last weekend, any chance someone will have the pack for me at Duxford?

If the family is up in time I will!

I'll be goin to CSS - thought of maybe catching the Bedford convoy

Fair enough, it's a silver ph1 with over the top rims & tinted back windows(not my choice, just how it came!)

I'm only up the road in rushden so I may tag along if I'm up in time

Label remover from cpc works too or isoclene isopropyl spay

Yep, I'm in idiot for not buying in advance, just decided today that i'm coming, so i'll be paying on the day, and the missus is coming too, not that she gives a sh*t about clios and laughs and also moans at my new "moneypit" hobby!

Yep radio works, not done any more investigation, I may tomorrow if time ​

Der yes all bulbs good! Dash works & illuminates, just interior lights that don't

I've got black bump strips on my silver ph1 and I want silver if u fancy a swap?!!

Yep checked with a voltmeter - no 12v to roof unit, lights or boot light. But obviously switches are ok as the door open sign lights up when both doors or boot is open. I have tried to re-seat all the cable under dashboard, still no luck Not the end of the world, but annoying none the less...

Well if no ones got any ideas then I best start pulling wires out & checking I guess...

My phase1 172 has an issue. None of the interior lights come on, or the map light, or boot light. All fuses are good, the door open indicator lights up when all doors including boot are opened. all fuses in the box are good too. anyone got any ideas cos its bugging me now!

Hi all, anyone know of this car? trying to get some more history on it, a cheapy off ebay, £700 ,allegedly 72k on clock wondered if any members may recognise it? Came from South Wales Now in Northants

Cool thanks guys i may just give 519 a call. As i'm not actually using the car yet i may try and track the history a bit as the guy i bought it off (who only had it a few weeks) reckons the previous owner had done the cambelt & dephaser pulley fairly recently, but no theres no proof. I might...

I'm reading all these cambelt posts and am now kakking myself as I've just bought a 172 ph1 for cheap with no history... I'm not driving it on the road yet, and was considering doing a DIY job on belts & pulleys (done plenty on other cars) but I ain't gonna risk it now. Thing is I'm skint & it's...

Fault : I had no blower at all on any speed selection. There was a 30A fuse in engine bay box that was blown - replaced still no heater fan... So I took the whole blower out and discovered a blocked drain hole & lots of water underneath, so cleaned this out and dried it all out. With the fan...

Cheers nik! ​
