good god, hope it stays in france as well

bloody hell hope mine isnt gonna be that bad. I'll defo be trying virgin when i come to renew

nothing but trouble, adamhodg on here did it and ended up forking out much more than he wanted to, could have bought a ph1 172 for what he ended up spending. However if you want to do it to get some experience with engines etc speak to edde, jon_16v etc

seriously i love my aftermarket steering wheel, adds so much feel to the car! i'd only keep it if you were thinking of selling it as standard

^ just recently they've only been going for the 60-100 quid mark on ebay whereas a while ago they would easily get 150 quid. Best thing to do is put it on ebay and it will find it own price

lmao at brianR he may drive a porsche but he speaks the bloody truth ;) also take on Has's advise. Some of the mods on my car cost me a fortune to insure and with you only being 17, you really should check the fleet covers mods, because in my experience it never does. imo, if your gonna...

if its in good condition i'd guess at 100 quid or thereabout! depends how many there are for sale at the time lol

think pearl black is 676? deb, its my old car lol, just make sure you look after her she was my pride and joy! if you need any more infor on maintanance, cleaning it etc drop us a pm. I've got a list of products that worked really well on the paint work. Reason its so crap is that its been in...

looks like a ncie example, what are the plans for it?

minty mint! they've done a good job of spraying that front bumper, paint match looks really good

looks like a nice car, for someone planning to do a rep would save them a lot of money in the long run

stick with the coilovers al, i regretted fitting a kit to mine so much after fitting my coilovers, more so for the drive than the look. Even though the 1.2 is a slow car the handling just made it so fun to drive and just gave me a whole new car feeling about the car. I had koni suspension before...

those badges and engine cover make the car ;) lovely timeline! has to be one of my favs

^ think its normally 3 months to be honest mate as do that you may as well buy a real one, as they're only 3.5k now with average miles. If you can stump up the insurance costs i'd do that

mines making the 'supercharger' noise, but i'm pretty convinced it hasnt had the cambelt done even thugh the previous owner said it had. I'm gonna have it looked at and changed so will let you know if that cures the problem

no no no lexus lights they look hideous on the black car. A silver car may be able to pull them off but they look worse than ever on a black car. As said above get yourself some decent suspension instead, and instead of bying chrome accessories save up the money and get something more noticable...

i jumped from a 1.2 to a 172, as have lots of others, surely thats a bigger jump and i dont find it a problem? If you want a vee go and get yourself a vee, look awesome. As for servicing eddes the best man to help you with that

only thing with springs is the weight of the engine but obviously they're the same so shouldnt be a problem. Dont think theres a size issue

whining is cambelt mate, get it sorted asap or it'll blow your engine. enjoy the 172, what colour is it btw??

depends if you want a warranty or not because obviously the 04 plates will be up soon, so the difference maybe spent on maintanance

fantastic cars the corsa 1.7 CDTis, if they wernt so much i'd have one in a shot. Lots of power, and imo is better than the 1.8 SRi

lol here comes fred! nothing but good reviews from em

yeah hopefully it'll all be ok... we'll see!

lovely! how are u finding her compared to the 1.6?

lmao, if they try that one i'll just laugh in their face! for all i know they all came with that on ;)

40 - 50 quid

it'll be almost 3 fecking months by the time i get the car back! oh trust me i'm gonna try everything, especially as it came with the car as standard. Luckily its got the green shift light as well which is often associated with cars which came with the alloy bonnet, so will have a bit more...

rung em up today as they said the car would be back in the first week of january (they've already had it for 2 months) and they've now told me it'll be the end of january! Proper pissed off as i had a quote off cliospares for the work taking 2 weeks start to end. Its annoyed me so much because...

lol, and all that saving up for a sport when i already owned one, its a cruel world!

how the bloody hell is it a sport, its a 1.6 dynamique :rasp: also ive paid bloody good money for the priveledge of a sports badge so i dont want any fakers coming along and stealing my glory for 2 quid ;)
