I don't know mate. I carried on walking. I was never into the 190E, but I think they're pretty cool now.

I saw one the other day, also with wheel trims, and on a J plate, but in grey. The dude came along, and put his shopping on the roof of it! (n)

Thread bump! Does anyone know the part number for one for a FF 172 please? (or one for a mk2 that has the rain sensor etc) Mine has delaminated round the edges and looks naff. I got one once for my v6 straight from Renault years ago but I guess I'll have to go give RPD a shout this time?

I saw an eBay listing a while back selling one on an 02 reg. The seller mentioned there were a couple on an 02 reg. I remember in the early 2000's my mum & dad went looking for 172's and they saw an 02 reg exclusive. So, they either saw the one that was on eBay, or the other one. Sadly they...

Me neither, but look a the state of it!! No s**t on it and that could be so much nicer!

Easily one of the the best 1*2's I've ever seen. Absolutely stunning!!! :love::love::love:

That's the one from Goblin Garage. It was completely grey when they did it. https://www.hagerty.co.uk/articles/interviews/helen-stanley-let-her-imagination-run-wild-with-her-bmw-e30-restomod/

Talking of tuning etc, Grove Garage was fairly local to me (but I didn't know it was that place at the time) I was walking down the road one Saturday afternoon, saw the gates to a random car garage place were open so I looked in and saw the whale tails of about twenty Escort Cosworth's in there...

That's cool, but sad that it got nicked! :( I remember when I was about seven or eight, my dad took me to work one day to see his bosses three door, and his three door race car, which he used to race against Mike Smith the DJ. My dad worked for Brown & Geeson who sold Momo steering wheels and...

Years ago I came close to buying K51 NTR which was one of the silver ones. I'd had seen a small picture of it in a Ford mag at a rolling road day and a Ford worker owned it and it was standard. A while later I saw it for sale and he'd sold to a dude a year or so younger than me. I'd always say...

I remember some three door Cossies being £7k in the 90's!

I've got one of those by work which actually has the full lettering of CLK 63 on the left, an AMG on the right of the boot. It has those wheels too. It's a f**king 1.8

Hi, I saw the back end of your car yesterday as you were leaving the retail park and I was walking to the car. I was not in a Clio so you'd not have spotted me. Are you on here?

I had a Phase 2 16v in 2001, I went from a 1.1 Mk2 Fiesta I'd driven for a couple of years. The Clio felt like a rocket ship! I only came to get one as I'd got fed up of looking for a non shagged 90 spec ERST or a FRST that wasn't rusty and thrashed. I'd always see a red J reg Phase 1 16v in...

And that one that's silver, but I think that was a special order, or green then done in silver when new.
