Whenever you need them chip, no problem atall. or, I could drop them off with Mike a bit later in the day if that makes life easier for you?

You need to order a pair of rear mounts then, they are far from expensive so get them sorted ASAP.

Martin, you must have had them previously mate.

Nice find, cheers, just want to confirm what compound they are.

Silver 172, looks like it has anthracite standard wheels and slightly lowered. looks a tidy example from what I can see. i won't say the exact location other than, it's been parked outside my house the past couple of days.

You are correct as I've been looking at the 422 options/specs of late :)

In that case Jay, I may have one, but you are far from local to collect.

How would I know if my box is the 130 variant? its from a Trophy.

That's a shame about Dave @ PEC. did he say how quickly he could get you a set?

http://www.performanceenginecomponents.com/default.asp 01376 583030 gladly say I sent you his way, he's a decent chap.

And he's reasonably local for you... Ish

Give PEC a shout and ask to speak to Dave, when I spoke to him a week back he said he had a set available to go.

Interesting, as I'm looking at ECU options for the trophy and ITB's, I was all set on Omex 600 to carry out that chore for me but I'm intrigued with this now.

I've bought a spare engine to build up nicely, by the time you factor in all of the right bits you can still easily hit 3-4k without labour, and that's without bodies or management, so if you can get away with finding a healthy engine maybe drop that in the car and rebuild the smokey oil burner...

Hmmm, lending could be brave to a stranger. but welcome to come up and take it out with me in the car with you for a while ;)

It's just not a car for me Chi, it was to be a replacement for the trophy track car and I just didn't bond with it, so it's sat parked up for a while, but time to change it for a car I can actually put to use.

No mate, just fitting a standard one back on so I can sell the car ASAP. tbh, I regret buying the car, the 197 really isn't for me atall, is sat on the driveway for 5 months because I didn't want to use it.

Brilliant, many thanks Marc

As above really, would anyone happen to know how many hours Renault quote to do an exhaust manifold change on a 197? cheers

Yes, the wheels are exactly the same size, but part of one of the packs being the anthracite wheels was also the 205 tyres.

Not quite true, the normal 182's also came with 195/45/16 tyres, it's only the cup packed cars/trophy that had the 205 variant.

The BTM system would be my choice aswell. had one previously on the trophy and will going for another again very soon, I won't even consider anything else after having that system already.

Probably Sam heading towards Sidcup on his return journey from the Bristol direction (unless you mean AM)

They are a great seat, I have a pair of them, you are welcome to nip over and try one for size and comfort before you decide to purchase any.

A good mates garage up your way, also a member on here. http://gokgarageservices.co.uk/about

I think you may have got something confused in conversation with the garage, are you certain they said rollbar? the ARB isn't even connected to the gearbox.

Spotted it just after I replied, I'm a donut ;)

Have you got a project thread or spec list of yours? id consider taking yours as a PX on our 197 maybe.
