Nope, tbf it's not my doing. My Uncle's bought the bike for my Dad to ride. The previous owner (my Uncle's mate) used it for track days.

Adidas RB? :S

^I hardly see silver ones. Black is like a clit though.

I hope this hasn't already been posted but OMG: ​(ignore the door and wing not lining up)

Some really nice shots :)

Decided to experiment with a warming filter: wellworn by chippen172, on Flickr

Wow, that's a bump!! Lol. Lmao at where's wally! And yes, £110 but well worth it imo :)

Loving the little glow on the pedals there lol.

Re: Silver 182 - Purple Porsche Wheels - Recaro Pole Position - and a well lit carpar Definitely. To me, from a distance, it just looks like you've got a poverty spec boot handle. Stand's out a lot on silver too. Not trying to be negative keep commenting on it btw, just really is spoiling it...

Re: Silver 182 - Purple Porsche Wheels - Recaro Pole Position - and a well lit carpar I'd be tempted to put that back to standard. Looks nice on the whole though :)

Thanks :o It is inside the Focus, isn't it. Always makes me laugh how my Jap mate's call them. They say rot boxes, unreliable... everything. Yet my Dad has pretty much only ever had Fords and get's minimal problems. Build quality is definitely better than Jap. Modern one's don't seem to rot...

Re: Silver 182 - Purple Porsche Wheels - Recaro Pole Position - and a well lit carpar I like it apart from a few details. The marker lights on the rear bumper are gash. And why is the boot handle black?

I like all the stuff i read in the last few posts. People actually talking sense! Saxo's are awesome - okay, s**t image but when it's that fun for so little money who gives two s***s :rasp: As Dave has already told you, lower brace will make a really good difference - i'd always advise people...

Haha, well it is remapped with a Miltek exhaust. So whether that makes a difference? Like i say though, that's if he's giving it some grief.

I've altered the white balance on this one as it was annoying me lol. stand172 by chippen172, on Flickr Scott (guessing that's your name lol), i'm not familiar with what the Meg's and Astra's are like on fuel. All i really know is with a heavy-ish foot the ST hit's 18mpg which i thought was a...

That too!

A month or so ago i would have disagreed. Lately i wouldn't. Must say though, i really like the ST's. Drive's really nice, feels well built and like i said above, nice torque. Just a shame they're s**t on fuel lol. Thanks for the comments people. Not dead pleased with them all but a couple i like.

I shan't start a debate :rasp: They're both fun though. ST has some nice torque!

Just thought i'd share some pictures after me and a mate went on a little drive today steeeeeeyyyy by chippen172, on Flickr stand172 by chippen172, on Flickr streflection by chippen172, on Flickr STfocus by chippen172, on Flickr reflections by chippen172, on Flickr stvs172 by...

My ear's have just been violated by that 'music'... Nice car, don't like the headlights though.

I'd pick a Skoda one any time. Other's are a rip off price and look no better imo.

Re: Picked up a 172 from a memebr here !!! Looks a tidy motor, look after it. Not too sure on the tints though.

That looks immense.

No idea how much it's lowered by... I just played with the coilovers 'til it looked right. However it's on K-Tec coilovers and the rears are all the way down, front's have plenty to go. It rub's a little under hard cornering and on bigger dip's in the road since i fitted the spacers - but it's...

Oh and yes, that is a chock under the back wheel on the bottom pic. Handbrake cable snapped the other day, all fixed now :rasp:

Might as well whack these pic's up whilst the thread's been bumped :) clioinsnow by chippen172, on Flickr clioinsnowww by chippen172, on Flickr
