My 200 Silverstone 34/50. Purchased on Sunday ?

Ive done exactly the same with the driveshaft gearbox bracket. 2 litres of fresh oil all over the place and it stinks too!

Just had its first test drive round my estate. Couldnt do much with no tax and insurance. But been sat in the garage for 13 months while i do belts and full suspension refurb and hasnt fell to bits or valves smashed together! Soon be out and b road blasting

Bang on a 100k mine. Cant wait get it out the garage. I had a mk1 focus rs before this and didnt like driving it incase of stone chips etc. Sod doing that again with any car, lifes too short for fannying about like that

Cycle past it every other day going into work. Always have a look at it parked up outside the services on the bridge. Always tempted to put a is it for sale note on the window ha

I used pattern and didnt fit. Gen ones solved my problem

If its for looping and doing epas it'll be fine. I did it the other day with a similar kit. Need a pipe cutter if there is one with it.

I have the bergen impacts for about 12 months. Ive proper abused them and been fine so far.

Just to update for others who may be after handbrake cables for a 172 cup. Genuine 172 cables fit perfectly. The euro pagid one was too short. They worked until the ratcheting mechanism in the handbrake handle decided to sheer its teeth....

Looking superb. Some motivation to sort mine out.

Ended up going for gen renault for 172 to save messing about. Hopefully they will fit no probs.

Ill just give them the reg of my old ph1 to bring the cables up

So the equivalent size in first line will be ok? I can get them from a motor shop just in town no probs. The pagid one was 1380mm so called the right one thats for ph1

Excellent cheers. Im sure the pagid one i bought was the same length as ph1 but its obvs a piece of crap and dosnt fit. Hopefully genuine will sort it.

Had a quick search and cant find anything for definite. Anyone know the part numbers or which handbrake cables will fit 172 cup? Got a euro one a while back. Tried fitting today and its short. Cheers.
