13th July about 1pm heading out of Cramlington and joined the A1 South at Seaton Burn. I was following you in the sliver phase 1. Good work we owned the golf trying to beat us round the roundabout!:cool:
Tuesday 29th May, Just after seeing a 182, saw Iceburg 172 with private reg of Stokoe. Think its someone local off here?? Next to Travellers Rest Wideopen

Think I saw you in Cramlington a while back as well. Anyone of here?
After some advise please.
Busy sanding my phelum chamber, but how on earth do you effectively sand between the 'Renault sport' lettering. I have tried using a dremmel type detail sander on its lowest speed setting, but it is taking chucks out:dapprove:
Do I need a small diamond tip...
Spotted about 12noon ish going around the Swan house roundabout, headed off towards the quayside. Think it was an 04 plate.
Very marmite colour. I love them!!:cool:
A lurvy young lady:evil: in an iceburg 52 plate 172, heading south on the A1 around the airport turnoff at 5.40pm Thursday 15th. Had what looked like a magnex 6x4 zorst on
Just had some new rear wheel bearings put in today and been advised the rear pads are low. So was also going to put new standard disks on as well as pads BUT K-Tec and Fred only seem to sell them with the bearings already in!! Doh!:dapprove:
Any one know where I could get some without?
Went to my local stealers today. Like most, my alcantara trimmed steering wheel looks like it has done 139k not 39k, so went to get a cost on the leather RSi item (Thanks for the part number clio G-B & Fubar).
They want £317!.........£317!.........£317!:nono:
Almost felt violated!:o
Needless...
Pics of my cat.
Off a 2001 Y ph1 172 BUT with 2 Lambda sensor holes a la phase 2's.
Only done 37.5k before I put a K-Tec sports cat on for a bit more va va voom! Since removal been kept in the warmth of the house, so is now a house cat!!!:rasp: . As pics show never been welded & in sound...
Has anyone got a mk2 phase 1: Initiale steering wheel on their car?
Thumbing through the original sales brochure and these look like they'd be an ideal replacement for my 172's shabby wheel. Visually look indentical but in a grey leather opposed to the 'soft touch' alcantara 172 item.
Any...
I'm wanting to paint and get polished my spare 172 plenum cover before I get Ben @ Angelworks to wave his magic wand over it.
Has anyone painted theirs at home successfully?
Presume it'll have to be very high temp paint (does it need primer?). What have you all used? I'd like a smooth gloss...
No.1 - Stokoe sport172 : Saw you coming out of the Shell garage on the Great North Road. Hope you fed it V-power!
No.2 - Heading towards Northern Rock from Regent Centre. Was a late 172 aftermarket zorst. 03 plate i think
No.3 - 51 plate in Adsa car park. 2nd time I've seen it there.
All...
Think I'm OCD!!:S
Just bought some rubber floor mats just for the winter, to protect my recently steam clean 172 factory items from getting ruined this winter.:nono:
Please tell me someone else does this. Yes I know I'm mad!:quiet: :rolleyes:
Hi Guys,
I'm a bit baffled by the wide variety of products available. I love to keep my car clean but don't know what to use?
Have in the past been using Autoglym Super resin & Extra gloss protection. When I bought the 172 used Meg's clay bar and Gold class wax.
I want to put something on...
Is there anyone who can put a chrome effect onto exterior plastics.
Folitec do a chrome film put it's worse than useless on anything other than a flat surface.
Any ideas anyone!!!!!!!:S
Just about to put the phase 2 bump strips on and still can't make up my mind what colour to do the 2.0 16v badges.:rolleyes:
Chance for you all to show off. Show us what you've got!:cool:
