I drove my mates STI before I had the 172. It was running over 350bhp and it was literally the best hour of my life. I love my 172...but that Scooby was incredible! Complete chav car...but that's because chavs like fast cars!
If they can kick up a fuss about you making your car safer by using winter tyres in the cold weather...then they will definitely not like you stripping it out. I'd just tell them mate. Better safe than sorry
The 'it's only a 5k Clio' was only referring to the taking up two spaces issue. There's no need for it. I'd agree that toddlers are probably the main offenders for wanging their doors open...but I don't think their mums are any better. Mom's on the school run are some of the worst drivers out...
Take up 2 parking spaces?! You arrogant f**ks! Nothing winds me up quite like that. You're not driving a Veyron you know.
Slightly off topic but I used to live on a street where it was really hard to see when you were pulling out. There was a 'keep clear' marking on the road but I'd seen this...
Trophy in Oxenhope, 1*2 was black on Harden Road, Wilsden. Or Wilsdon Road, Harden...I get confused. 200 was blue at Owlcotes roundabout in Pudsey. Looked ace

Lol Awful plate. Why would you want CLIO in your plate. Surely there are more interesting things
Ha. God knows mate...I was struggling alright!
Birchdown charged me £430ish for cambelt. Dephaser would have been a further £200ish if it had needed it. That's on a 172. Will be cheaper if yours is a cup
When I bought my 172 I had no idea the cambelt was such an issue. And such a costly one. Bought it this year it's an 02 on original belts. I was absolutely papping myself on the drive to Birchdown from Leeds. Had a good blast on the way back though!
Trophy spotted on Bank holiday Monday at JCT600 roundabout Rawdon. Another spotted just now (31.5.11 2pm) near Thornbury roundabout Bradford, heading for Laisterdyke. And finally a Monaco 172 at about 9 this morning near Cineworld in Bradford. Surely one of you is on here. Oh and a 200 outside a...
I was 20 at the time and he said that my manouvre was massively inexperienced. I do kind of wish I'd completely lost my rag with him. I know it wouldn't have done any good. The annoying thing was that the other policeman (the driver) was actually alright. It was as if he knew this other guy was...
That is very lucky. I 'supposedly' overtook someone on solid White lines a few years ago with a police car behind me. In reality I returned into my lane well in advance. We're talking 5 in the morning here too, so there was nothing on the road. The coppers pulled me over and sat me in the back...
Who in their right mind would remove the xenons...the best thing about a standard 172 and then fit a non-sport grill? Never a sport IMO, grill, no xenons, sunroof, no splitter, dodgy exhaust...even the colour looks wrong to me.
