Nothing wrong with a Simota Aeroform...!

I've just taken delivery of some Apex 40mm springs for my 172 and wondered if some kind person would give me a hand fitting them!? I live in Surrey so someone but can't do it at my place as the gas company are digiing up my roasd at the moment and all three of my family's cars are on the...

Ha ha, yeah. Cheers Ducky ;)

Does anyone know of a good de-denter in the Surrey area? I missed out on the last group 'de-denting day' and I've just found a new one by my fuel cap :(

I always assumed it had something to do with them winning a racing series?

Very noice. What did you use for the plenum and fuel rail?

Welcome to the club! As Fletcher said, your car is Iceberg Silver. The 182s are Titanium Silver. Why the transition to a RS then? :)

Didn't get round to doing the plenum but I did clean out the throttle body and I must say, it seems slighty more resposnive already. It's definitley worth doing, there was a fair old build up of grime. Have you seen this by the way? Surely it can't be worth the money...

Have you driven one before? The best thing you can do is to go for a good drive. Let it warm up for 15 minutes and then give it the beans for a short while. It won't idle particularly great - none of them do unless mapped - so don't worry about that. Listen for any knocking sounds which might...

Thinking about it, I need to change mine. What bulb do I need matey?

Interesting. I think I may have a cleaning session tonight. I just bought a new torx set! :approve:

Were there contractors working on the pipes when you came back to your car, or was this a new incident and as such not being seen to?

Telephone Asda first and speak to their Manager. Tell him/her the story and that you'll be looking to make a claim against their Public Liabilty Insurance. This is the insurance that covers financial loss to a non-employee as a result of the businsess' negligence, and that occurs on it's premises.

Noice colour ;) Where'd you find it?

Are those the ones from the 340/440?

What do you wanna' know!?

Yeah, that's the one. I got rather excited! Never seen another in the flesh. How sad :(

What were you and your sister doing eh!?

Flame Red 172 parked in The Belfry Shopping centre today. Had a couple of nasty dents on the front of the bonnet?

It's a waiting game though if you ask me. If you're patient you can find nicely priced cups. I've seen a few on Pistonheads in the 5 - 5.7k region but this... http://www.pistonheads.com/sales/603429.htm ...strikes me as a bargain! Alternatively, a 172 like this...

And leather of course!

Haha! Brilliant! Well, the ST220 does 0-60 in 7.7 seconds so you should be fine. If you want to know how easy they are to 'mod' I'd suggest making use of the forum you've become a member of...

Needs a splitter.

Pop down to your local solicitors. They're obliged to offer their services for free for 30 minutes but to be honest, they've probably dealt with so many of these cases you'll be satisified in 15!

Noice! What's a mechanics creeper though!?

Did this actually go IN the drink?!

^ I couldn't have said it better my self :)

Oh dear. I do feel for you mate but you really should have done some reading on what to look/listen for when purchasing. The ruined rear shocker and 'spoon in porridge' gear selector would have been noticeable straight away, surely? Having said that, I can't see why the garage wouldn't...

We all know that the Campus isn't the sexiest of the Clio range but if you bought one you must like it, and that's what maters. If you want to make it look better I'd get some 60mm springs under it, silvatec bulbs up front to get rid of that orange reflection and buy a new front plate to fit...
