March 17 mine was built/registered.
They're so bad as I didn't hand wash the car from October time until a couple of weekends ago :ROFLMAO: What's on them now is part of the metalwork.
Mine will never look right...when they replaced my backbox they've somehow got it so that the left tailpipe...
Mine are way worse than that. I'm not going to bother bringing them back to life...I'm not that fussed really, although at some point I'll no doubt buy a couple of new ones to keep in reserve.
If they're not full numbers wise then they ask members if they have any friends/family that can fill spaces. Keep 18th October clear Jeff just in case (y)
It's a challenge Martin, nothing more, nothing less. Looking two or three cones ahead to plan vehicle position while being smooth and...
I shampood, clayed, shampood again, AG SRPd, and Collinite 476d my bonnet and roof yesterday and this morning. All seemed good, panels felt super silky, but under this morning's climbing sun I noticed this. Can't feel it, can barely see it, but these watermarks are very much there.
How do I get...
I was, my friend's band was booked to play at the Saturday evening party as well, I was really looking forward to that 😟

It's not on!
A variety of races covering a vast range of classes and types spanning several decades.

I may even take the wheels off and do the arches if this goes on and on and on and on 😁
After the 172 Cup I had a Suzuki Ignis Sport and the Clio 200. It wasn't until I bought my Fiesta ST that I felt I had something similar to the Cup. That's probably why I kept the ST for 4 years and did 60k in it. It just felt right...but with more torque.
Direct comparison? Tricky...two years...
This thread has made me want another one. Now.
Of all my cars I got rid of the 172 Cup is the one I'd buy back tomorrow, not the mk7 Fiesta ST, not the mk3 Focus RS, not the 2009 Clio 200, nope.
Genuinely, if my 172 Cup pulled up outside and the owner got out and asked if I wanted to buy it...
My car is going to look like new when this is all over! It's going to be a low mileage year...I'm more concerned that the 36 litres of fuel sat idle in the tank will have an octane rating slightly above tap water by the time I get to take it out again :ROFLMAO:
