Heading up from marsh Barton to countess wear roundabout in Exeter saw a 172 followed by a 182. Both looked tidy, 172 went topsham way, then I followed the 182 up the dual carriage way. can you guess what car I was in? ...

I'm not sure about Clio sport meets, but I've been to a couple of piston heads with another 172 owner. Keep your eyes peeled on the forums and see what's about :-) will prob bump into you again sometime soon!

Hello, that was me :-) Saw your cup parked up then heard you heading off, distinctive sound the old FR4, also had to check no one was nicking my car lol. TBH yours is the first cup I've seen around heas, also looking smart, noticed you had a front splitter, some thing I've never got around to...

Live in Weyhill, so will prob see you about. :)

I was in the blue 172 cup behind you up the hill :-)

I've got both, cup is better round corners feels stiffer also seems to get up to speed quicker, octy is a bigger car obviously so u need to work it to get up to speed, saying that I'm selling the octy this weekend. IMHO Clio as a fun hack about wins, big speed motorway cruising go for the octy...

Been searching on ebay for a while for Compo MO5's dont come up often and prepare to pay for them, even tatty ones!

Surprise surprise Im having major probelms getting the local garage to pass the cup due to the usual rear brake problem, they are not even reading any thing even with two blokes in the boot for added weight. I've shown them the VOSA newsletter and they've spoke to VOSA about the brakes but...

Can I ask what wet sanding the headlights does? I'm assuming gets rid of the fading which most lights seem to suffer from? If so what grade paper did you use as they look brand spanking new!

Looks like a decent bit of kit, I'll see how things go for the time being! Watch this space...

Any one have any info on that other sprung bracket (first pic)? It seems a bit redundant at the mo!

Thanks for the info, still lots of money for me at the mo. Although given whats been said, if the worst does happen and the welds break then I'll just be throwing money down the drain.

From memory it did have a K stamped on it, so Im assuming it is a Klarius! Bum!

Cheers mate, I'll have a rumage through my tool box for a suitable 'socket' to use! Hopefully that will raise the back box up and give the hanger some more support!
