Ha, I probably would mate, but just bought myself a new car. It's good to see you've put some time and £ into it. Keep it as long as you can I'd say, you'll only miss it once it's gone!
Glad to see it's still looking good mate! Miss this car alot! Had to get sensible with a diesel golf now so seeing this makes me really miss the fun you can have in these little cars!
Looks like it's been through a few changes, like the wheel and alcantara!
Re: Picked up a 172 from a memebr here !!!
Nice car ;)
Glad you like it Mark, many plans for it?
I personally liked the tints, I think they suit the colour really well. And they don't seem as dark as they are in the pics. Now it's clean get out and drive it:D

Yeah i'm gonna whip the wheels off today and check all the abs rings. No lights show up on the dash though so would it show up on diagnostics? If I do get a fault light its the serv and tc lights that come on. They reset when the car is restarted though..
Been having issues with my traction control. It seems to kick in when cruising round slight left hand bends, only 40+mph it really seems to happen, slower corners seem fine.
Go round the same corners driving a bit harder and no traction control kicks in, only when cruising round does it start...
I have it in my 172, I got an update cd off ebay for less than a tenner, I think I have 2009/10 maps in there. As said though the nav system itself is pretty awful. But nice that it's built in though, I do use it on longer journeys.
Mine always sits around 37 or 38. But I actually return more like 32 or 33 mpg if I work it out from a full tank. But 40+ on long/motorway journeys is pretty standard.
