mine ran 185.5 with just over 650 miles on it... i'd be amazed if it didn't run more if i rr'd it again now it has more miles under its belt
15bhp for 299 quid... i'm a little sceptical
you'd had enough of people's hand gestures towards you cos you drove a BMW? ;)
you're in a group of people who have sold 325/330 coupes for a Trophy though
mini meet might be in order at the weekend perhaps... didnt make it to catch up with dandan last weekend to see his new toy either
looks great in black and with the wheel upgrade
i'd stick with what you've got, unless you're really struggling on making the car payment. depreciation will hit you hard and unless you're really on the breadline i wouldnt sell it
4.5k in 4.5 months in mine and i agree, the more miles you stick on it the better it becomes. Again mine's an R27 but i'd choose it over either the Trophy or FF182 we previously had before it
it's a tricky time of year to be selling atm, plus a modded car might limit your market slightly... similrly though there might be someone out there who is looking for a modded 172 and happy to pay the price you want for it. you just never know!
having driven 5 or 6 different 197's and a couple of R27's, including my own i'd say there is a difference in handling... seats aren't night and day different but the Recaro's suit my slim frame very well! :D
i was hunting round for his pic's... he has the full monty of RS stuff!
think the blue one doesnt look right as it has silver alloys and is missing a spoiler.
side skirts aren't my cuppa from any angle of pic's i've seen, very much doubt they'll appear on the R27
