Why don't you have a go at refurbig them yourself? Would only cost 50is quid. I'm pretty sure alot of places will also do the Pro Races to your spec for pretty much the same price.

What tyres are on your alloys just now?

Do you really want budget tyres on your car? I think multifit alloys look cheap, if you want Turinis save up and get some with decent tyres but i'm sure if you wait a 2nd hand set will pop up.

Sounds like a plan.. I bought my Eunos for £150 as it wouldn't start, I changed the CAS(cam angle sensor) which is a common fault and it came to life. Cleaned it up a bit and punted it on and made £800:approve:

I don't see the issue, when I was a kid my parents had Xr2's etc, and we manage to look after our niece with no issue in my Clio and her 107.

Nowhere near the price you are asking on PH. Got a feeling they would offer under 2k for it (plus the belts will need doing again next year).

I sold a MX5 (well a Eunos Roadster) in much better nick than that for under a grand. Prices should be dropping even more now it's winter. I'd stick with the 172 or get a newer MX5 if you really want one.

Ture, most of the other Clio's i've seen kicking about have Halfords specials on them.

Not everyone likes to stand out from the crowd and be in-der-viiduallll though. Some just like a nice OEM looking car.

I wouldn't change mine ever for road use, if I was going to track it I'd get a set of light 15's but I think they are the only wheel for the Cup.

Looks pretty wrong...

Nooooo... waste of Cup(imo ofcourse)

They are still pretty sh*t hot mate... wouldn't mind the 1 & 3 in widescreen size wallpaper.

Any rig pics of a 172 Cup? in the widescreen size if possible? cheers Jonathan

Used to work at HSBC in Hamilton(csc) years ago.

Sighthill Industrial estate. Work at HBOS.

Aye they are great wee cars. I'm in Coatbridge but I work in Edinburgh. My Aunt stays in Carluke, never actually been though..only driven through!

Lovely car (well I would say that), where you from mate?

Was gonna say the same, whats with the bin? And he's near enough cut the bumper out of the shot in pic 3. Why did you say it was a Pro Shoot then?

You any further on with getting a 172 Chris?

I meant including the red plastics. Carbon bonnet on a Mk3 is a bit like a bonnet bra on a Megane(imho obviously)

Got to agree with this, i've been down the route of having to spend £100's on suspension to get a decent handling car (Ibiza being one of them). It's nice to have a great handling car out of the box. I've had to change the suspension on nearly all my cars in the past but i'll be leaving this...

I'm not about Coatbridge much to be honest.

Taking the piss I take it? lol

Cheers guys, wheels need a refurb and there a few wee scratches that need wetsanded out, but apart from that it's standard. Was toying with darker wheels while doing the refurb but silver does suit Mondial, ten again so does anthracite etc.

Think a carbon bonnet looks sh*te on the mk3, still too much plastic infront of it.

Don't know what price has got to do with the pics?

Here's a few of my Cup, just need to replace the washer blanks seeing as mine have went walkies:mad:. gonna either have a go at making Carbon ones myself or get someone to do it for me. Need some Silvervisons too. cheers Jonathan

Looks like it's had a stroke.

Won't find may 1*2's on 17's mate, the reason being they pretty much mess up handling and look pretty shat.
