Put up a wanted post for some bits if anyone can help?
Thursday another minor fault developed, a slight blow from the front of the exhaust. The decat was just reinstalled after the car was MOT'd earlier this month so I presume it just needs tightening up a bit/re-fitting. Yay, old cars, don't...
I was a couple of cars behind you this afternoon in Hereford (in between Pizza Hut and Grandstand Road) and I have to say that despite your excellent photography the pictures do not do this car justice, it looks flipping epic in person, its' stance is perfect! ;)
Cheers buddy :)
Don't worry, that rear plate is pissing me right off, everytime I look at the car it's what I see, it has me gently rocking in the corner!
Cheers fella.
Thanks for the tip, bit late now haha, oh well.
*Still gently rocking in the corner mumbling to myself.
It's a very...
Not done much with the car yet. Added a ClioSport sticker to the rear window and cleaned behind the rear number plate as I got a new plate.

Sadly, despite being really careful I put the number plate on at a slight angle, I'm just not steady enough, pissed...
Sold now :). I enjoyed that little car and buying it meant I gained interest in these little buggers and ended up with the LY, I doubt I'd have put that note on it if I hadn't bought this one :)
Cheers, I'm pleased with it :)
Thanks for that mate, I guess the money from the sale of the 172...
It's cheap as it's not perfect, I've got it listed on here, here's the link to the full ad on Gumtree...

I certainly do, could you give me their details please? :)
Cheers man, 'tis a nice colour, definitely yellow :P My camera must have been on the wrong setting as I agree in the photos it does have a hint of orange too it.
I don't usually have good timing when it comes to all the things that...
Epic timing, Mike had the car for nearly 3 years and I just happen to pop the note on the car just when he's about to sell it, fantastic!
Yeah no Cup packs sadly (well it might have the Cup suspension pack, I haven't checked!).
I could have sworn it had a Cup rear spoiler on it though when I...
Hey all.
Well well well, I went and bought a new car on Wednesday (08 June)!
I put a note on said car I've had my eye on for quite a while, basically saying "I've got a 172, looking to buy a 182, would you consider selling yours?" Differently worded I admit but you get the message.
Much to my...
I've literally just bought the car from the chap in Newton Farm, his Missus lived in Kingstone I think he said so it's the same car you've seen about most likely.
With it not showing as sorn or tax then it is probably in the trade at the moment.
Any owners of my car still frequenting here?
Iceberg silver Ph2 172 - HV02 KSO - Had a ClioSport.net sticker in the window when I bought it.
I've got the Apex springs on mine and I do wince when I'm approaching a speed hump but so far so good but in Hereford our bumps aren't too bad.
I can remember when I was near Cannock some time ago the speed humps were really tall, my Volvo nearly got beached on some of them!
What size tyres do...
Washed it and photographed it for the first time in my short ownership. :)

I think I need a new bonnet, really letting the car down :(.
Thanks for the rapid response.
My concern isn't really for the journey but more whether the light will go once a seat is reinstalled or will it stay on until it is reset by 'a gizmo'?
Just a quick question.
I'm looking to pick up a set of replacement seats soon and currently the only car I have on the road is the Clio so was thinking of removing the passenger seat at home and installing the replacements on collection but would driving the car with the seat removed put the...
