any thoughts? Thanks guys (and gals)

They are actually painted red on mine at the moment, but my first car was a red Citroen AXGT and I had a red/silver/black thing going with that. My Civic Type R was Black and as standard has bits of red and silver about its interior and exterior......so the red/black and silver combination is...

to be honest I loathe black alloys for some reason. but agree bright painted calipers on it’s on with nothing else exterior wise picking up the colour it’s too stand out for me, maybe even when it does tie in with something. That blue on the calipers isnt bad as its toned down. I've only had my...

some pics I've found

Hi all, Just yesterday bought a clio 172 Ph2 from another club member and loving the car so far. I know painting brake callipers itself let alone what colour splits people, and I have had a gander on this forum to see what others have done theirs on their silver Clio's I know the norm is...

I just got my 172 yesterday and did about 100-110 miles, most on the motorway and my needle is probably a little higher than yours is so pretty comparable. I was wondering if mine was going down quick too but a lot of cars have taper fuel tanks. My civic type R was always slower to go down the...

What the difference with the alloys? How can you tell it doesn't have Xenon's

Its alright Im not interested in the car. it just made me wonder why I hadn't seen seats like that on any of the Ph2's Ive looked at

yeah I notice the door card is differemt, the door handle isnt normall silver looking either I think. So are we saying after looking at the other pics on the pictures I posted that this is a Ph2 with Ph1 seats?

For the record I'm not interested in the car

See http://www.pistonheads.com/sales/1187751.htm. Its a Ph2 alright. Hence why I asked to clarify what a Ph1 was as I always thought it was as picture above

But the picture with the coloured logo is from a 2002 plate clio?!?

Another noob question. What is and when did the Ph1 happen?

Hi All, Still looking forward to getting my first 172 within the next month. Noob question no doubt but I've been looking at some pics and as far as i know the Leather/Alacantra seats are standard in the 172 pictures as below However I've just seen a picture which the renaultsport logo is...

They are certainly the top tyre in the opinions of Civic Type-R Owners, there what I've got on my civic and what I'll probably put on a clio 172 when I get one, hopefully in a few weeks

Ha, apparently he thinks its worth over "50000"

It doesnt matter where its parked, lamposts shouldnt just fall over and thats the councils responsibility to make sure they are safe. If it had fallen onto a small child it would make the local news and they would have their arses suid off.

Gutted for you, i'm suprised it was not worse and the rear window didnt smash

Apologies if this is a duplicate thread, I posted it 10 minutes ago and I cant see it anymore anywhere ?!? The guy now says it was done last year, the guy who had it before him had it done apparently

Hi chaps. Still shopping for a 172 less than £3,500 and although I've got first refusal on a good one from a member on here (that I need to wait for to get his private reg transferred off it) I have just seen this one. http://www.pistonheads.com/sales/1203662.htm it sounds like it’s in good...

Hi Guys, Hopefully I will be the owner of a Silver 172 in a few weeks time so I am planning a few cheap cosmetic changes I can make to the car to make my own. I will probably paint the brake calipers and hubs, not so much to make them look like proper sports brakes, but more so the lightly...

Nice blurred edge photos, not a sharp one and and I'm sure the luminescence on the blue has been toned up it doesn’t look right, If it was a dead sunny day maybe but it clearly isn’t in the pics

Pity I didn't move on it last week but believe it or not I wanted to see the 'shed' as more affordable. Don't think I liked that had no service book and record of any service. Asked them yesterday and had reciepts for cam belt etc. Only he's been offered £3500 from dealer to part ex, when it was...

Thanks. I think after what’s been said I need to cast my net wider and push the boat out if I really want one and a decent one. The 'shed' was the first I'd seen in the flesh and although I knew some bits weren’t standard I wasn’t aware just how much had been mod=deed or "chavved", least know...

its crap living 278 Miles away! up here in the lake district there is not as much choice in a reasonable distance (less than 80 miles as the crow flies - though thats still a couple of hours plus drive away) I may be coming to stoke though as there are couple in that area on website, and a lad...

Good point, dont warm to the ph1 the same way though. Really I'll pay between 3k and 3.5k if it a solid car with low mileage for it age as I will keep if for 3 years plus. if I went for a cheaper 2.5k to 3.2k It would probably be a higher mileage, I might have to compromise a bit elsewhere and...

I have not said anyone on here has taked sh*t!!!!! Read my last post I just said I valued the replies!!!! its all a question of compromise, like I have said in a previous post, a few weeks back I was looking at Focus Zetec's 1.6's and 1.8's. Fairly run of the mill plain cars, its only since...
