I took a while to warm to my 172. Came from an astra turbo which felt much better built tbh (even though its a vauxhall). But after you get over the creaks and rattles and get stuck into some good A or B roads I'd hope you would start to have a little fun in it. As someone stated earlier in the...

My N/S rear disc did this to me last week. Took an hour or so to get the damn thing off. I'm so glad they last a while:approve:

Hi i'm Dan from Ashford, Kent and this is my monaco....

Yeah probably just a linkage problem. Get it checked out.

I'm gonna try and head down. Only been to 1 CS meet myself, time to get my act together! I'll bring another monaco along, my mate just bought one :-) 1. Megzy 2. ScarySquirrel 3. lrj 4. Mizt 5. Millen +1

How about this Audi? Saw this one a couple of years back on the internet...

Ah I see, whereabouts is the ring? Behind the disc is it? Any rough ideas on cost?

Hi guys, I have a problem with my ABS, it cuts in under low speed braking i.e. pulling up to a stop at traffic lights in town from 20 to 30 mph. The brakes work fine under other driving conditions, I have recently replaced the front discs and pads (brembo hc discs and ferodo ds2500 pads). I...

^^^ just gone down to the car and sprayed some all over it. I'll whack it with the hammer again later.... we'll see

This. Or under the brake light which is where i put mine.

Damn thats nice, I'm really getting an urge for a BMW at the moment! Keep this thread going mate that looks really nice so far...

How the hell do I get this securing ring off the fuel pump under the rear seats!? I need to replace my pump, i've tried the ol' hammer and screwdriver trick but its just eating the plastic away and not spinning at all!!! What can I use? Anyone have any ideas? 10 minute job my arse:o

Ha those must be the original discs! Changed them already then?? You work fast!

Nice man, looks a fair condition. Loving the meaner look of the ph1 too. Does look a bit 4x4 at the moment though on the 15s lol. How do you find it?

350 lb/ft lol, clio won't compare for straight line speed then!! I miss the power of my astra, one day i'll end up with one again I think. Glad to hear the coupe still being used/abused. But a shame about the nova, last I heard you were going for another rebuild? Only so far you can go with a...

Spanish?? I know you...... Used to be with the AOC south east lot at the shows drinking and smoking with you! Getting rid of the nova now???? On a serious note though clio's are great for the fun factor. Have a few mods on mine now and its way more fun than the turbo 5 door I had. Do you still...

When I had my astra people would take the glass/plastic off the front and spray the inside black. I could try and find a pic if anyone is interested, wouldn't be a clio though. Like the stealthy look though, menacing :-)

Certainly came up shiny! Personally I like the bullets as they are, only thing I would lose is the stickers. Bits round the window (don't know what they are called!) i'm not sure about. Never seen them on a 172 before. Nice car though mate, enjoy driving.....

DMS is your engine running uprated pistons and rods for this kind of boost/power or still the standard internals? Looks an insane amount of power!!! Uprated clutch? Just interested really. I'd love to see this thing on the roads, fair play to you mate.

Wheel and splitter look lovely, but I'd personally lose the wheels for the 172 standards. Never been a fan of the 182 wheels though. Nice monaco mate....

Oh very nice, white BM is lovely!!!

I'm certainly no pro but I just put mine in the machine....

^^^ Do this method for calculating economy, I found on average I get 35 to 36 mpg on a tank. The trip always shows between 38 and 41!

I let my friends do what i do in the car, so smoking, drinking eating is all ok tbh. Music in the car though no one has mentioned... Nobody touches my stereo. Not that its worth alot but when i'm driving only I choose the music! The outside of the car though has to be treated well like being...

cool, i'm gonna give the car a once over before i head off. Can't turn up to my first CS meet in a brown monaco..

So who's still going along anyone? Weather is looking alright in tenterden...

I'm still planning on coming along for a bit. Gotta clean the car tomorrow afternoon though it's filthy at the mo!!

Hi, I have a fuel sender fault or so I think, petrol light comes on after filling up, mileage remaining display shows dashes etc. I have reset the trip to clear the fault but it keeps re-occurring. I want to unplug it to clean the connection first but can't for the life of me remove the...

cafcross sussex_gti Planetx Millen I can make this I have the night off work. My first CS meet......

Got it guys. I'd removed all the metal ring it was just a tight fit. Got it in there in the end with a little help. Cheers for all the replies
