Alien green is aweful in the flesh. I have my reservations about that vid, the 200 catching the RS uphill and appearing to make significant gains in the braking zone? All staged I reckon.
Most ph1 172s are titanium, there are small number in iceberg and then all the Mk2 172s were iceberg. Titanium cameback for the 182. Dynamques etc. were Platinum until around 2006, dunno what that the latest silver in those is called.

shame they didint make more effort with the appearence. But then you cant upgrade early his time. Looking forward to the software upgrade though!
Only thing to add is that its not in the insurance companies interests to over catagorise a car as it would affect the salavage value. Something very odd with this one as I cant understand with something like a Vee why someone would repair it give the cost. As said, its only fit for the track now.
Great value and looks sweet Daz. Would have to change those wheel centres as actually in you pics I quite like the choice of colour they have been refurbed in.
that was me mate. Had the GF in and she complains if I boot it! :(
Did notice you were in a hurry! lol
Your motor looked sweet. Mine needs a good clean, especially as its up forsale!
Yep cat C needs a VIC check but they do not inspect the repair, purely what it says on the tin.
CAT A - crush only parts have no salvage value (ususally burnout shell)
CAT B - Maybe used for salvage parts only - car cannot be returned to the road.
If what he is saying is correct, and the...
*yawn yawn*
Quality motor mate, you will really enjoy it. A step up from the 182 in many ways. Yes the pace is similar but its quality shows in other areas.
Spot on. It is a listed. Also could have been damaged as well. The insurance have paid out the full value of the car if it appears on the HPI report.
It is no different to sell that an other listed car, so not worth the market price. It wont be recorded with police anymore as the car was...
Gutted i didnt get to drive it yesterday. Will be making up for it on Thursday;)
Looks sweet, I was mega impressed with the tidyness of the engine bay!
It does look mint and unmloested, down side is the shadow chrome wheels which dont suit it imho. Pace wise standard though, I think you will find it disappointing, hence the number of modded ones.
I understand whilst there was no official ph1/ph2, but there was a change to some items such as...
I drove a Mk1 RS recently (alonsgide an R32) and was so disappointed. The engine felt really strangled and had real lag and lack of urgency. I had lusted after one so long.. really burst the bubble and as you say the interior is hard to swallow - mainly the dash imho.
Had terrible issues with Greenlight. Infact we are still bickering, they have a poor rep on here and I ignored what I read and it bit me on the arse.
Now with Brentacre and cant say how helpful they are, even helped me with sort some of the issues I had experience with greenligh!
paying...
I am confused as to how that would cause the issue you have experienced... doesnt make sense.
I can see some difference, but not enough for it to come loose!
Sorry to say these are not the best exhaust for the `82. I drove Maz's loads of times and it was littered with problems of rattles and fitments! Sure she had 4 exhausts+ and in the end just got rid.
They also kill the standard mounts in no time:(
