    If any of the SC lot are after a decent wheel cleaning product - Look here!

    My local one does have it but the price on the shelf is £6 odd, tempted to take one to the till and see if it comes up cheaper.

    What do you think?

    I would say for that mileage and a dent in the roof that was a bit pricey. Also only 10k of another Cambelt change. As for the oil most the time it's a leak from a bolt on the rocker, however could be the actual rocker cover needs reselling which is a Cambelt off job. Would avoid that one and...

    What I hate about the 172 cup

    The interior isn't the prettiest but I found the seats very supportive, having said that I have got aftermarket seats now. I have some eibach prolines which improve the handling without losing the ride quality. If your looking to improve the handling refresh the front ball joints, track rod...

    Advice on price for this car?

    Looks fairly good to me, apart from the headlights. I would say the price isnt far off if it is in very good condition like stated

    Simply french day 2013

    Right guys I will be coming down the M3 to this so though it might be an idea to arrange a meeting point. So was thinking if anyone wanted to meet at the layby on the A284,just off junction 5, at 9:00. Anyone want to do this?

    Spraying helpi

    Main problem is I have applied decals to the bullets. And while the area isn't over the decals, it would make rubbing the lacquer off and adding colour pretty impossible. Could I either rub the area down with 2000-3000 grit a little then spray another coat of lacquer? i do also have some...

    Spraying helpi

    I have been spraying my bullets and all was going well. However I put a second coat of lacquer on them and have notices some of the lacquer had dried cloudy. Any idea why it's done this? And what can I do about it? Cheers

    CLio 197 £3495

    Going by the mark on the front bumper I believe I saw this car today. If so it had a bloke driving it not a lady, plus the aux belt was pretty noisy. Anyone know where this is located?

    engine knock 172 phase 2

    I would get the dephaser done as they start to go around that mileage and the last thing you want is to spend £475 for the dephaser to go a few months later, as you need will need the belts changing again to fix it!

    My 172 Replica

    Looks like you have done a good job mate. And as for the bullets, don't see the fuss as the whole car is made to look like a 2.0 anyway. Only time I hate cars like this is when the owners lie to their mates that it's a real one, which I'm sure you don't. Just to add my old silver 172 had...

    Cambelt changes

    I think it sounds like a fair deal and like chip said you know the belts have been done right. For example end of last year a members flame red 172 which was really mint but needed belts sold for £2800.

    how much should it cost to drop in a second hand engine?

    If paying a garage to do it I'd guess 350-400 labour, then fluids etc on top. Plus if you taking the engine out probably best to fit a new clutch if it hasn't had one. I would say with all the above 600-650 at a guess without engine.
