Car slipped off the handbrake on Friday outside my GF's house, and rolled down the hill into a flat bed truck.. Check out the results: Taken it to mate yesterday who thinks he can beat out the rear 1/4, which is a relief.. Just need to find a bootlid now.. See my other Flamer...

Heard back from 2nd seller, and it's not a 172. Anyone know if flame red is exclusive to Renaultsport models?

Cheers Steve, what I thought. 2nd link looks like a debadged 172 to me with that bumper? Would be good if it is as it's the cheaper option!

After a bootlid for my flamer (thread to follow as for reason why.. :() Found this bootlid on eBay, but it's listed as Mars Red, which I thought was a V6 colour only? Also, looks like this might be flamer too? Any ideas?

Gotta love a flamer! :)

Can you retro fit cruise control? (Mine's a 52 plate)

Will do - cheers for the replies.

Plugs have done about 15k, coil packs about 40k..

My 182 engined 172 is intermittently running on 3 cylinders until it gets up to temp, when the problem completely goes away.. Engine management light flashes too, though if I turn the engine off and start it again as soon as it's warmed up the light goes off... Coilpack maybe? Thanks! Ben

Spotted a blue cup at Brands yesterday, anyone here? I was a passenger in the yellow one of these: http://www.radicalsportscars.com/range/sr3-rs I didn't get to take the flamer out on track.. :(

Was still half asleep or I'd have waved!

Kirkstall road this morning.. Saw you at the lights. (Was in my flamer).

Welcome to Flamer ownership! :)

I was in the flame red 172.. Looked mint!

Will give you a flash next time and see if you wake up! :)

Alien Green, not LY! Doh!

Spotted you this morning - looking good!

Missed mine hitting 40,000 last week. Just fotgot to keep an eye on it, and when I next noticed it was 40,001. Will try to remember to keep my eyes peeled and camera ready for 44,444..

Check your coolant level - if it's leaked from the matrix your coolant will be low.

Brentacre beat my Flux quote today by £50. Sub £500 for a pretty modded 172 in band F leeds. :) I am old though.. :(

Brentacre for me too. Very modded 172 in a band F postcode, £500 fully comp. :O)

Looking shiny! I was in the Flamer behind you.. Saw you parked at Go Outdoors too! B

Looked well!

No one had this issue?

Hai! :) Got Mike@Rentech to thank for the Lutecia badge. I like it though. The splitter was my handywork..

Looking shiny! :)

My 172 is 182 engined, with a 182 ecu.. Because of this, I think, none of the trip computer options work. I.e. mpg, etc.. Anyone got the same set up and managed to get the trip computer working? Cheers Ben

Near Penrith. We were either side of a brand new Nissan GT-R, you in front and me behind..

Here was me thinking I never get spotted! What car have you got Dave? There's a very tidy cup that I see a lot on Stanningley road, no CS stickers though

Didn't see you Ed - will keep a look out for you, do you live in Bramley? Daz: Can't make Sunday, am off to the Lakes for some mountain biking and good driving roads.. :) )
