I thought that it was just a myth that the silver 172 cup existed!

Is it a members?
I love the vee! I think it will be a proper classic too. Renault certainly wont build anything like it for years to come. I've sat in a LY ph2 in a dealers, but never been out in one. I only assume it will be as an amazing experience as it looks. I think its already been summed up well as the...
I had these come on (with nearly every other light), and it was the alternator going. It broke down and had to be put on a AA truck!
I'd check get your battery checked 1st. The cold might be doing it in/on its last legs.
Cool, I'll keep a look out for your swift mate.
Laura, I'll wave or flash any cup I see! I did this to a man in a suit the other day on the Gillingham top road and he just looked scared and wouldnt pull alongside me at the lights. lol!

Ouch! And the muppet at Renault was convinced when I got my 172 that if the aux belt went it would most deffo not take the cam belt with it! He was convinced that it was ok and if the aux goes, the cam is protected as its incased. I might email him a link to this thread (yes, this is a service...
There the bits i meant. Its a 10 year old car. Youll end up with a problem at some point. If you could flog the 172 for a profit keep the willy if its good. Plenty 172s about if you fancy a change.
