How much would a set of 4 172 Mk2 alloys be worth with 3 ogod tyres (although all 4 legal) Toyo T1Rs fitted. They could do with a refurb but would it pay me to get them done or sell as they are? Thanks.

Dont do track days any more so just road use, ideally want low brake dust if possible.

Need to replace my brake pads soon, any suggestions? EBC are based just down the road from me, any experiences of these? Thanks.

What a result, might get the oil changed anyway!!

Just called my Renault dealer to book in for a 3 year service, the car has only done 15k miles and was serviced 12 months ago............ they reckon that its not due another service unil 2 years after the last one of 12,000 miles is that correct????? Thanks.

Just gone into the back of someone, no damage to their car but have cracked my fromt bumper, looks a bit out of shape! How much is a new one or will I be better off going through insurance?? Thanks.

What tyre size do these take, Ive just had 4 new tyres on my 172 (195x45x16) Thanks.

Mine is about 24 - 28 mpg around town, cant see how people are getting more or less, must be problems with some of our computers?? I dont drive that fast round town either.

That is well out of order mate, theres enough racial tension in the world as it is without t**sers like this bigging it up. Fuc*king tw*t, this has really wound me up! Get the prick done for assault, thats the best way to deal with sh*t like that. This country is a fuc*ing mess and will only...

Just interested in what sort of price people have recently sold their Mk2 172s for? Please specify year, mileage etc. I will be getting rid of mine soon 2002 only 13.5k miles. Thanks.

195x45x16 v

Dont think that many places have them yet as they are quite new. I paid £55 + VAT

Bear in mind that these are the NEW Toyos, the tread is quite different. I drove home when it was pissing down and they felt better than the GY GSD2s! http://www.toyo.co.uk/index.php?fuseaction=car.t1-shttp://www.toyo.co.uk/index.php?fuseaction=car.t1-s

Just had 4 of the new Toyos fitted, initial impression is very good, much quieter than the Good Year GSD2 and seem to grip well, taking it easy at the moment though until they are bedded in. They are a harder compound than the T1-s so should last longer, that said I have never run the T1-s...

Hi Steve, Ive obviously missed the previos post, what have you done?????

Whats this b0ll0cks about the RA2 becoming illegal, absolute crap! As for the RA1 or classic RA, it works fine, the newer one does a bit more and looks prettier but then you will pay twice as much for it. Look on ebay you may pick one up a bit cheeper.

Good man. Thanks!!

Are they any good? Thanks [Edited by Stokesey on 11 August 2004 at 9:46pm]

Anyone know if you can get the standard mat clips from dealers or do they come only with the new mats. Im talking about the bits that stick into the carpet for the mats to attach to (if that makes sense!) Thanks.

As soon as the car is 3 years old, anyone with an ounce of sense wont give a toss if its an import or not, it will all be down to condition, service history etc. As for the point above that it would be worth 1k less, thats a bit of a sweeping statement and maybe true for that particular...

You only need to look at the Cars for sale forum to realise that Parkers wont be that far off, you just cant seem to shift the 172s at a decent price.

Edit the 1st message and added the hyperlink, sorry guys and gals but not pretty!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Yeah sorry about that it was pasted from Parkers but as sson as I posted it, it screwed up the jist was that a 2nd hand 2002 (51 reg) 172 is worth just over £7k!!

Cant believe the 2nd hand value of 172s, I had no idea it was this bad, thanks god I bought an Import and saved a few grand at the outset!! Think all the people that paid top dollar for UK cars wont be laughing at sale time (not that Im laughing but I genuinely believe that pound for pound the...

Whoops start again!! Had my bike rack on the back of the car (its the type that rests on the back window and boot) took off the rack and its left 2 big dents in the boot!!

Had

6k on front contis, changed to GY F1s, now on 12k and need replacing again (the nearside front is near slick!!) Rears still original contis and look okay.

172cup_nut......... on what grounds? I would be interested to see official documentation on this, also if they are illegal how do all the suppliers get away with marketing, selling and installing such products??

Liam182 Im in Northapmton. I have rang Blackspot and I think they said, they had 2 & 3 metre cables (although they might have said 2 & 5 metre!?). I am only a few miles from Blackspot so will go up soon as I wanted to test the position of my RA2 with their laser gun (I have it sitting on the...

Liam182 - Looks good, where did you feed the cables? Did you need all 5 metres. Did you get the cable from Blackspot? Finally do you have your RA2 hardwired?? Thanks.
