How did you do the conversion mate??? I've done my window switches and Centre Console lights but haven't tried the dials or center clock yet

So one year has passed! This is how she stands today:

I have the obligatory "First Car Induction Kit" on mine. A K&N Apollo fully enclosed with a Cold Air Feed. I'm averaging 49.8 according to the trip computer atm. That's a few motorway miles but mostly urban driving! Not bad IMO!

Just put a new 2L lump in the 172.

+1

That 172 looks seriously tidy! Don't break it :(

How much would you charge mate? I've done the Hazard Panel and Window Switches myself (the easy bits!!) Looking to have the dials done white and the Computer Display Blue? Maybe a blue centre clock too? Thanks mate!

When my clutch went on my 1.2 it didn't feel juddery or 'stall like'; More like a lack of power through slipping. Basically, imagine revving through first gear and then pressing your clutch in while keeping the accelerator down. Like that. Had mine replaced and the bite is still pretty high...

As above I would try plugs and leads first tbh. :) I had the wiring loom issue with my 1.2 - didn't cause a misfire though. Either the engine went into limp home mode or just cut out all together! Not a nice problem!

Love this! Anyone in/near the Wiltshire area that can do a white/blue theme on the dials and Computer like this?! :)

Turning over and not firing? Maybe change your coil pack and spark plugs? :)

Nice part of Swindon... (believe it or not)

Turn the key to ignition; wait until the dashboard lights go out. Do any unusal ones stay lit?

This happened to mine after purchase (typical!). Had the throttle body replaced and it fixed it temporarily. It has reoccured again since, although not as severely. I've changed the following: TDC Sensor Coil Pack Spark Plugs None of the above fixed the issue. Every now and then the weird...

Likewise. So much room; I often struggle to find pick a place for my car.
