Oh my god you guys are so protective of your 172, cant you take a bit of constructive critcism. Ill say it for about the tenth time I havent said the Clio is sh1te, I actually like most things about the car like the raw speed, comfort and looks. The problem is that I just dont believe in its...

;)

Well if I posted a question (as above) 106GTI/206GTI/306GTI V Integra/Civic Type R on the Peugeot forum theyd all laugh if anyone said the pugs would be better, but in this forum practically the lot of you say your beloved 172s are better. Dont understand why its red rag to a bull, question...

You are such a child tomboy. My opinion (and a hell of a lot of other peoples)is the Integra and Civic type Rs are far better cars than the 172 in the overall handling and performance department, but Im not suree how does that make the 172 rubbish. I now spend far more time on the Peugeot GTI...

The Teggy R is so much better, the handling is well just out of the 172s league, maybe driven on its own by a pro who can handle the 172s "lively" tendancies and on an empty track it could just about keep up the the Integra. But put it in the hands of a non pro racer and on a normal road the...

Oh dear Freddy, so what do you own then (to bring round to the track day)?

I had the same fault fixed with mine last week, and the FIRST time I pulled away the noise occured, although since then Ive been driving my 106 GTI so havent noticed it, or actually even give a sh1t as its up for sale and I cant be bothered wasting anymore time down at Renaults, its been with...

I dont understand why it happens soooooo much as well, through corners also. Surely you shouldnt be losing so much traction so much of the time.

Okay, seeing as I know nothing and here just to piss you 172ers off, but Ill give you the answer your all looking for! Its your torque bar, I was surprised myself when I heard this noise (like your ABS kicking in but a lot louder) when giving it some welly. Apparantly its a safety feature (I...

At long long last, someone LIKE ME who actually owns both cars and so can speak from REAL EXPERIENCE, the 172 is better in the frills department but not in sheer cornering ability than the 106 GTI

No they just do it on their own forum :D

Sorry, I thought you lot werent interested in Saxos, but then we are talking straight line speed here.

Well done for pointing that out, top of the class you may go.

So youd spend £25k an a very average V6 (power to cost price) to take it down to Santapod to get completely embarrased by EVERY other car there, kinda defeats the object doesnt it

So if you had a couple of million knocking around your bank why are you wasting your time in this forum, shouldnt you be out there enjoying it?

Didnt know Santa pod is a circuit.

Oh dear oh dear oh dear, have you ever been there? Tell me which part of the tt circuit you could get over 150MPH on especially in a V6 thatd take it about 30 seconds to get to.

Tell me anywhere in THE UK including ANY TRACK where you could do 150MPH PLUS.

10 gearboxes, 10 exhausts, 10 fog lights, in 1/10th of the time. Bloody hell, I could have a hundred replaced 106 GTIs then.

There isnt a waiting list, unless your talking about the one on Mars

Of course not something called a warranty sorted it out, although that isnt the point, but build quality was the question, not who paid for it.

No they just do it on their own forum :D

MMMMMMMMMMMMM, my 172 (6k miles) has had a new gearbox, new exhaust, new fog light oh and needed undersealing (properly), great build quality. And for the 100th time I HAVE A 106GTI, which in 3 years has NEVER been in for anything bar service items. Oh and by the way my last service (MAIN...
