where abouts was I then? The timing is right, as is the route - for me heading back home from work. Were you driving a Trophy? can't remember seeing one !!!

it's less worn out that's for sure !!!! and I am assured that it has brakes as well !!!

on the M1 yesterday morning, in the roadworks I believe it was (good job the specs are not working yet !!!!) in his NEW yellow V6

my sister has a db9 - so have been in one, and allowed to reverse it out of the garage once !!! sounds wonderful, and gets quite a lot of attention, specially on the motorway with two females in it !!!! haven't bothered to blast against it, even the Vee looks unrespectable in comparison...

did you have to put so much detail around the "car" after all there was only one yellow 172 model !!!! The best one of course !!!

Hi Jamie welcome, can't believe it took you so long to join, but glad to see you took good care of my baby - good decision to keep it !!! what else you done to her? Kathy

and of course a chip, cos no-one sees that one !!! hi Kitto - defrosted from Saturday yet? K

I'll drive either the Vee or the Trophy for 200 miles a day on a regular basis, I drive the Golf 2.0 TDI for 50 a day, and I know which seats I would rather be in - but I do see your point about the fuel Geoff!

but trust me there is a world of difference between setting the world on fire and driving a diesel golf !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

you're mad, you will hate the golf after the 182 Geoff - I am currently driving my sister's 2.0 TDI and even that is rubbish after a 182 - it's power on, power off, brakes on, brakes off and nothing much more to it !

Do you find them a hassle to drive around town daily? No, I drive mine into London at least 2-3 days a week, sit in heavy traffic on M1 and London, and it is always a pleasure, never ever a hassle Reason i ask is because i often find myself diving through tight gaps in traffic in the 172...

Yes, Mr Townsend has commented, maybe not on here, but there are definitely no plans for another V6

on the M1 - around Junction 4 heading northbound tonight, about 6.30-6.45 pm anybody?

buy it in mp3 format from the likes of i-tunes???? :eek:

05 (I think !) silver 182 - anybody - tonight around 8.00pm

very close behind each other, Leigh Road, Chandlers Ford, this morning about 9.10am one female, one male

imports generally are UK spec - I had a Mk1 import, not bought from motorpoint, and it was exactly the same.

and, it was very shiny - I had just finished polishing it - looked good in the sunshine :cool:

behind me this afternoon - I was in the Vee

spotted Geoff in Cranborne on Saturday, we were in the BMW though, so not sure if you knew who was frantically waving at you !!!

Kid will be miffed that it's gone at last !!!

I've got a tom tom 500 - I like it, but now I have to move this thread to the right section ;)

racing blue with stripes, in Pear Tree Services, this morning, Monday 30th, about 11.30-12.00 ish

Black 172, with "viper/racing" stripes each side in silver - looks cute actually !! on back of a recovery truck today, going south on A34, between 11.00 - 12.00 today, Monday 30th

Re: FAO Jeremy T some things are worth remembering .... ;)

Re: FAO Jeremy T maybe it's something I picked up from our "chats" back in 2001 !!! :o

Re: FAO Jeremy T I heard you were big on abuse, so it's hardly surprising they don't wanna fix it !!!! ;)

oh, just like to add I am a small minority, that female that drives a Vee during the week and a Trophy at weekends :cool: :approve: and very happy I am to be doing so I have to add - and my first RenaultSport car was bought by myself, on my own, with my own money and not a male opinion in...

I think I might know you Jaine :D - hope life is treating you well, and welcome back !
