You don't need spring compressors on sports. I am a mechanical buffoon and even I figured out how to change the suspension over mate. Honestly, it's very easy. Between me and a mate we can do it in 40 minutes now.

Search on here for f0xy, he did a full wiring diagram for your very conversion. I'm on my phone otherwise I'd have linked it for you.

I'm not a fan of aston martins in general, but holy s**t!!! That looks superb!

Welcome to the club. What are you actually asking??

Do you wash it with a wire brush?? State of that paint! This.

Re: My latest creation.... Love it! Proper Go Kart-esque!

Re: My latest creation.... That steering wheel is epic. What is it? 300mm?

My favourite, as in the one i'd most like to own, is the yellow 197 that's supercharged. But i'd get it painted in a non gay colour. 197, win. Forced induction, win.

If you're local to bristol, pm me. I have entire ph1 172 looms, ph2 looms, and 182 looms, tools, workshop etc and may be able to help.

If you bought it from a garage, you have a comeback. If it was private, you're on your own kid. I have very little sympathy I'm afraid. Everything is cheap for a reason. If you wanted a decent spec, well documented history car, eBay would not be the place to buy one. I'm guessing you bought...

I thought this was a kitchen ergonomics thread.

I'm not being funny, but the adverts I write for sub £1000 cars show more detail than this. And eBay?? The mind boggles.

Bristol to reading and back, (hi CUB) 160 miles, cost me £60. Using vpower at £1.38 per litre. I think that's 15/16mpg? There were a lot of high speed shenanigans though. Driven sensibly, I'd expect 25 ish. But then if you buy a car with 320bhp to drive sensibly, you're a mongoloid! Lol

It got put on a truck! That's it, nothing else. Nobody damaged it, nobody got in it, nobody drove it. It really doesn't matter at all.

I'd be interested in both of them if they're cheap enough.

The only downside to owning one of these, especially with this power, is that every other car I look at is shat. What else can I buy that looks this good, goes like stink, is reliable and costs £4k?? The only downside is the reputation of them and the mpg. Neither of which i'm worried about...

What 172 and corsa have you got?

Anywhere north of Gloucester is Northern.

As it is now, £4k. With new discs/pads and a new mot, £4500. Ish. Don't know really. There aren't really any other similar cars advertised to gauge it against.

Yeah I've been looking at them mate. Lowered a fair whack, spacers and turinis and it would be a cool little van I reckon.

I like your house. I'd offer a swap but I don't want to be northern. ;-)

*Makes mental to never get in @danward 's car at a track day*

Ball joints? Anti roll bar bushes?

So pretty much every car you've ever owned, you've either blown it up or crashed it?

Yasssss!!!

Sounds daft, but make sure the plug leads are on the plugs and the coil pack properly. The whole lot would have been removed so it's a possibility.

f**king hero, customer will be here in 5 minutes! Lol. X

Buy it then!

Pm me the details baldy.

Guys, urgent help! What's the radio code??
