Any recommended places in the south east?

Give us abs please, special special edition? !

172s only run their full power with 98ron. Optimax cleans parts of your engine so the first few times you use it the engine should feel better. You should always get better MPG from using it so really its no more expensive in the long run and it will keep the engine sweet. Thats what they say...

The southend meet was a wake up call :devilish:

I removed my crummy Extreme badge which i presume has quite strong glue to last the vehicles life. After polishing the car you couldnt see any mark at all. -Rob

My mum had a normal cooper so not sure how much the interior differs but i thought it was a bit overstyled, like they were trying to hard. I think in a few years when the cars aged it will look a little strange inside. The seat mechanism is also very annoying! -Rob

Well you could rummage in the Renault parts bin, 172 bumper or facelift bumper. -Rob

That is the lamest thing i have ever seen. -Rob

I guess fred might know this. Is it possible to go -80mm on 16s on my car? Wheels will be ET38.5.. Cheers -Rob

hence the duh ;) How did you move the post G? -Rob

Duh! Magazine reviews can be so varied so for cars this close you can never tell which is really best until youve driven them yourself. However its nice to know they got charmed by the Clio. -Rob

They look sh*t hot on that one!

A damn load of penny sweets!

No problem!

They seem to suit the clio. -Rob

K-tec have those wheels on their project valver, go to their website and it will be there somewhere. -Rob

I think you should try Liverpool Victoria who allow mods at no extra cost as long as engine capacity is the same. I find it quite funny how that much is considered expensive though, im paying over double that ! :@ -Rob

Well i usually pay this guy £20 to clean inside and out, the steam clean cost an extra fiver. -Rob

I know your not a fan of Autocar and was expecting the intial reply! ;) But it seems they were right...apart from the engine size of the valver. -Rob

Worth phoning R-Tec as they got it done on their Fiesta by some company, which would make it north london-ish. -Rob

And he says hes moving to Toyotas! Nice cars though AE86s, rare. -Rob

I didnt know they did it in the new blue??? I wouldnt pay that much for something about to be replaced, so Dan..DONT! -Rob

Black wheels on black cars look really mean. A 172 owner has already done it. -Rob

I have brown on the inside of mine near the centre...no bubbles though. I guess a simple solution would to get them shotblasted and claim back on the warranty. -Rob

How much do you think the oil change costs in that total?

Get a valeter to steam clean it for you. Get both fronts done as otherwise one will look like a new seat and the other, well...wont. Personally i think these car conditioners are crap compared. -Rob.

I bought the same black whilst colour coding my engine cover so it should be there. The paint rack should be in order of manufacturer then the paint name. -Rob

So it wasnt autocar G, ha ha :p

Well they have more power/torque dont they..and i thought they weighed less. The williams has a slightly better top end according to this mag though. -Rob

I found a really old Autocar magazine last night and when looking in their old pink pages i noticed they had the 1.8RSI, but the valver was a 1.7? They also had the valvers 0-60 as better than the williams! Is this all true? -Rob
