    Suspension refresh, which shocks?

    Yep, if you're in a workshop it's a doddle tbh. Undo the 21mm top mount nut with a buzz gun. Then it's as simple as eff. Rears take literally 2 mins. Fronts, not much more if you have the proper toolz.

    Suspension refresh, which shocks?

    Yep, it's easy. Hour's work tbh. Make sure you undo the top mount nut before you get the front off the ground is all.

    Shared Ownership of a car

    Depends entirely on how well you get on with your boss. Also, how handy you are with the spanners. I could share a car with a couple of mates no issues. with my boss, no chance.

    Windscreen Repellent

    Splash some white spirit or petrol on a rag, and clean the wipers/glass with it. Will take everything off that badboy.

    172 project

    Sorry to say it, but the Toyosport is a waste of time. Won't improve performance, and won't last the test of time. Send it back if you can..

    Coolant bleeding

    As long as it's not overheating, then consider that job done. Once it's on the road, keep a 2 litre nbottle of coolant in the car, take it for a thrash and check The level after. Bob's your uncle

    Coolant bleeding

    Fan takes ages to kick in tbh. If you're sure there is still air to come out: I'd check the thermostat works. Manually pump all the hoses with your hand and give it a few revs to try and get air moving about if it is. Not difficult to bleed these really.

    Ugrent advice needed ?? Lucky escape ???

    Just looks like an old aux belt to me. Not about to die by the looks of it. Any frays/cracks/damage to the edges and i'd not run it.

    Cat converter

    Twin barrel cat is from a Ph1 172. If you're on a stainless exhaust then most have an adjustment to fit both cats. No drama there. As long as the car is running right, not missing and returning decent economy, ignore the light.

    Something broken on my front suspension

    Nope, that looks normal.

    NO BRAKES.......

    Drivers side wheel arch liner out and in that way.

    Stopping my discs from rusting - will it damage them?

    Meh, just ride the brake for the first few miles and they'll clean up just fine.

    Oil sump removal

    Yeah, as above. Fiddly fucker. Just be really careful not to round any of the bolt heads off. Once fully unbolted, wiggle out past the subframe.

    What has broke? Gearbox Mounting Bracket?

    Yep, could be a simple case of bolt it all up again. New mount isn't expensive. Worst case - gearbox casing where it bolts up may be damaged.

    What has broke? Gearbox Mounting Bracket?

    Dogbone support bracket, that is. Basically, need to check the dogbone is still bolted up.

    Anyone know this flame red 172 ph2 -EX51MFF

    Way too much thought going into it. It's a sub £1k 172. It's worth £350 broken or will make £1k in bits.. Impossible to lose really.
