I've got what appears to be glue left over from service stickers on my Sun Visors... Any advice on how to get it off?? ps. i dont want any suggestions of what the "sticky residue" might be? Cheers

Yeah... its that rather essential piece of Kit known as a Passanger Airbag. It's hidden underneath and blows out upon impact.

Spot on Vid that fella, some serious pull.... Thats why we all love our Clio's. ps your steering while is in top condition, wis i could say the same about mine... 31 degrees sunshine took its toll!

I'm not sure if they are the Konig's. They've just released a whole new John Cooper Worx range and they've got some similar rims in there. Possibility....

They certainly are spinners mate.... wow, that focus must be fast. Makes u wonder why Ford didn't release the RS with those chromers as standard

I'm prepared for all the re-post pictures and bullsh"t but this is without a doubt the funniest moment on TopGear to date. http://video.google.co.uk/videoplay?docid=639128827576745667&q=top+gear

That photo didnt happen to be in JJB gym north shields did it??

It starts with S

Its just a little Rubber boot that surrounds the Constant Velocity (C.V) joint. Basically its their to protect the joint from dust and the elements and to keep it covered in grease. Simple small job to replace but an MOT fail if not done.

I have a feeling that it was my car.... I have a Private plated SIlver 172. Unfortunately it would of been my brother driving it, such a shame! So good news on one part

£440 is a lil over budget but spose i could save longer and get the best. I'm not just wantin a lower look. For £400+ i'm wantin major benefits over standard set-up. Whats fitting like?

Right, lookin for a complete set-up.. Springs & shocks. Wondering what the best performance to price opyions are out there. Tryin to decide between Koni or Spax adjustables. Cheers

Anyone got these fitted.... Recommended. Any info appreciated, Cheers

Anybody know whether fitting 16" OZ Super Turismo's will loose conciderable amount of weight compared to standard 172 alloys? Any help appreciated, Cheers

So, is it worth all the effort or not? i've got the chance to get one but not sure if its worth it. Cheers

Anyone know how much a 182 exhaust manifold is second hand and how much it'll cost to be fitted to a standard 172 system. Cheers in advance

Why Put 17's on your 172..... You sacrificing handling and speed for the sake of an inch! Stick with 16's and get some super lightweight wheels, would be wiser choice mate. However, yes you can fit them with no scrubbing, but you cant have a heavy rear-end otherwise you'll get horrible noises.

Definately would to be honest mate. However, dont think the feelings mutual... I've flashed my beems at many a Fellow sport but just had funny looks in return. So who knows..

Must admit mate, looks pretty nice indeed. But, please do not spoil all your hard work by goin OTT. Side strips look spot on.... Gud on Ya

Right, i'm not suggesting you lye to the insurance companies, as some people on here are whiter than white and think this is morally wrong! But, you are gunna need to try and "flex" your policy. Dont say that you work in a busy pub (if u do), they then assume you're parking in an unsafe and dark...

Having an absolute Tw"t of a time getting the bolts undone. Trying with a 10mm on the right and its connecting fine but the left i cant get to, it wont bite. Any ideas or help please, cheers

Spot on mate, cheers.

Decided to try and polish my fuel rail while in the lovely sunshine today!! Can someone please advise as to how to get it off.....

I'm 18 with 1 years NCB.... Grand total for insurance is £1860! Thats with an increase of £260 because mother has "poor driver history" (they increased because someone crashed into her!) Good point above though, use each insurance compnay to fight the other. Say Admiral gave u £300 less than...

Cheers batman
