That 172, ain't that the one that appeared on a traffic cops programme a while back? Got pulled after ANPR flagged something up with the car then the coppers found traces of heroin in the car.
Technically, LY is a more expensive paint, as the yellow colour and the pearl through it are 2 seperate paints and are applied seperately, whereas a normal metallic has both mixed together and applied in one go. More material = higher cost.
Could go either way tbh. LY is a bit of a pain in the ass with it being a 3 stage (sometimes more) colour compared to a normal 2 stage colour. Plus the fact you'll need to blend it onto the doors, which is another pain in the ass as get it slightly wrong and it'll stand out a mile off.
Hope...
A lot of modes in MW2 don't let you do party chat and force you to switch to game chat and hear everybody, no way round it I don't think apart from muting everyone you don't know.
If you've just bought it it's probably still locked to the previous owners car, you'll need to pay £50 to get it unlocked. You did read up on this before buying it yes?
Nope, any style of car can be "stanced" if you like to call it that. JDM, Euro, Rat, VIP etc.
Just look in the JDM thread on here, loads of cars with awesome stance with not a drop of "Euro" styling in sight.

Depends what coilovers you go for, IIRC most of the more expensive damping adjustable ones can give near OEM ride quality. Then again most modifications to improve driveability/handling are going to comprise comfort a little.
First lesson, stop using comparison sites as they're w**k.
Second put a couple of middle aged females on, they're the best for bringing the policy price down.
If it's still too expensive, looks like you'll just have to wait. How old are you?
Popped into Arnold Shark Renault in Stirling a couple of weeks back for my belts to get done on the 172, had a nose round and noticed they had an 05 182 on the forecourt for £8k. Wonder if some poor sod was stupid enough to buy it yet.
It's the same spoiler. They came standard on non-cup 172 and 182s and on some higher model 1.2s etc like dynamiques. My old 1.2 had it as standard so it definetely fits.
