Spotted you heading out of Bristol at around 8am yesterday and strangley spotted you again heading back in on the M32 at about 4.45pm.
Looked very nice, had a larger than normal spoiler on the back.
The belts were done on my Ph1 172 in July 2006 when it was on just under 60k. Its now on 83k my question is should i be looking to put some money aside for taking to Fred later in the year?
I do approx 500miles a month so when would/should i be looking at getting anything done?
Recently bought a BMC Induction kit for my Mrs' 182.
My problem is that i can't seem to fit it, as the end of this kit is 85mm i realise i'd need some kind of reducer pipe to fit onto my Samco bend which i believe is 70mm?
I though this should be simple so i have found the reducer pipes so...
Think i may replace my TDC sensor this weekend if my local motor factors sell them.
I posted up a thread ages ago about my car not always starting first time and i often have to give it a bit of throttle while turning it over.
this used to happen now and again but is becoming more of a daily...
Can anyone confirm whats behind the diamond i.e. holes or just sticky fixers?
I also assume they just come off with a bit of leverage using something James Blunt?
I know it shouldn't but It really winds me up when people at work like to try and refer to me as a boy racer simply due to the car i drive.
Like today a colleague who drives a 1.4 206 joked saying on weekends i probably do LRT's (Laps Round Town) now i admit i may have down this when i was...
Recently bought another Ph1 steering wheel (2nd hand) as it was in far better condition than my poor excuse for one.
Now although the new one is far far far less worn i'ts quite filthy, what are the suggestions for cleaning this without rubbing it so much it looks like the original one ;)
When i finished work earlier i got into my car and started it up, straight away i spotted the clock had reset, so i checked to see if the trip computer had lost all details and as i imaged it had.
Signs immediately point to battery but that would be strange as i only replaced the battery less...
Bought one of these yesterday as i'm fed up of my current hose that i aquired off my Grandma, it is simply 20m's of hose with connectors etc but nothing to wind it up or anything.
Only paid £25 delivered, its a 25m one, surely thats a good price (it'll be sods law someone will have found it...
Spotted a Silver Ph1 heading east on the M4 between the M5 interchange and the Bristol Junction.
Wheels were dark and looked like they had a red rim?
anyone on here?
I put approx 1inch worth of snow foam in the bottle then fill the rest of the bottle up with warm water.
But by the time i've gone round the car the bottle isn't far off being empty, i've read somewhere of people doing multiple cars on one bottle.
I have turned the dial both ways but it...
Got in the car this morning and as there was a bit of sleet on the side windows i tend to drop the windows down to clear then just put back up.
However this morning when doing the passenger side the window went down but would not go back up, i stopped half way and clicked down which worked...
A mate popped round on the weekend and wanted to know if I was up for giving his car a good clean inside and out as I have all the product and he’s a lazy sod. I said I wouldn’t want to be doing any waxing etc in the current weather conditions but would happy be up for that later in the year...
I know people have said its a straight swap, undo bolts and take off Ph1 bumper, put on an bolt up Ph2 bumper.
But the Ph1 has 4 hole on view as you open the boot whereas the Ph2 has just 2???
Forgot they even made the clio in this colour but it was like the Ph1 Exclusive but a tad darker it seemed.
Spotted inbetween Chippenham and Devizes earlier today, looked very nice with dark wheels
Well after finding a Ph2 Bumper going for pretty good money and being fairly local i went and picked it up this evening.
Will hopefully get in on soon, needs a respray ideally to keep the tidy aspect of the car going, its got a couple of little marks and strangly a little hole also.
Still...
I've found a Ph2 rear bumper for sale for pretty good money, thing is the guy selling isn't sure whether its Iceburg or Titanium.
Any idea's how this can be found out bar me driving to him to see it next to my car?
Well after receiving my recently purchased Snow Foam Lance and Karcher 2.94 pressure washer earlier this week i have been outside cleaning the car for the past 3 hours.
I was excited to use the Snow foam but after attaching it all together with the pressure washer and filling the bottle...
Well i'm a bit behind the times in that i have no Pressure Washer (i know i know). So as it was my Birthday the other day i thought i better treat myself to one.
But then i started thinking about Snow Foam so hopped onto I4Detailing to purchase the following:
HDFL1L Snow Foam Gun / Lance...
Would like a piece of Samco/Hillpower 90degree bend for my induction, ideally i'd love a piece in Lime Green or Yellow.
Who's good to deal with for this?
My mate spotted a silver 172 at the Downhill Race yesterday over in the Forest of Dean (he's unsure of the Ph).
So say fully stripped, single seat and a carbon roof?
anyone on here?
Saw this and am not too sure what to make of it all, the photo below makes you look at it several times to ensure your eyes aren't playing tricks on you.
As for the sob story in the "Advert", begs the question why does he want it back so badly.... Stuffed with Cocaine possibly...
