Well my mate sold a ph1 172 last year for £1750 and it was tidy but not as tidy as your one seems! I'd say it was a good price for what you got! IMO anyway.
Welcome mate, Im from bonnybridge. Theres quite a lot from the central area on here. Both cars are mint! Cant say I've seen your focus around and its definately one that would catch my eye!
I've decided that I'm most definatley getting a jammer after a recent run in with the police on a backroad which involved trees, a radar gun, no hi vis jackets and me not paying enough attention. I'm not willing to let the opportunity arise again. I'll say no more.
So after much hunting on the...
it went into progrip and had the subframe re fitted properly, alignment all sorted out 100%, arnold clark agreed to put 2 new tyres on it as one was completely destroyed, arnold clark agreed this was just a goodwill gesture as the reason one was destroyed was the shorter driveshaft spinning up a...
5 bolts at the front, 2 at the rear (cant remember if the coil pack has to come off first for them its been over a year since i done it - if it does its only 4 bolts), 4 torx bolts holding on the throttle body, few sensors to unclip wiring from and it just lifts off! - should probably replace...

Ive had two £60 fines for my front plate, (same as the one pictured on the red 172) I still refuse to take it off. Looks a million times better than standard size!

Re: iPhone 5 this October??
thats a shame, my 4S camera suits me fine but my mates new PureView Nokia blows it out the water - i agree the apple OS is better but the Nokia one isnt bad at all! anyway dont want to get into a seperate convo about it.
lol aye he has the service manager from arnold clark with him in Germany showing him what happens when he hits the anchors @ 160mph!aye hes banned for saying a naughty word regarding a Lexus i hear!
I'd imagine its turned a little when trying to loosen the nut and now its wedged tight? Very small chisel and gently tap it back round to release it. Failing that, £51 for a new damper. Or if youre lucky, the impact gun will remove and refit the nut with no issues.
The problem being, 2011 cars have a smaller top mount spring seat. 82mm iirc. Most advertised springs for "1.2 tce" dont fit. Can only hope the manufacters catch on to this and offer a set with correct fitment. I know H&R offer a set that will fit however, 45mm is low :/
