    nice one matey! You sticking with the 15s on it? If so, you should switch to 195/50's when the time comes mate, work a bit better with the 15s and 60mm drop i find :).

    172 handling Help..... all over the shop

    good point, her brakes are due for replacing. Actually thinking about it.........she had to get her fluid toppped up the other week as there was hardly any in it. her brake pedal feels like it travels very far to me also. I had a cv boot go on mine the other month, on the motorway, 150 miles...

    172 handling Help..... all over the shop

    Yea all stock parts on the car in question. It just feels like something has worn out to me. it bloody scared me when i hit the brakes........i wasnt even going that fast, it just couldnt cope with the un-even road surface. Geometry is the 1st thing on the list for her i think.

So Rex, can i have a go in your cup to see how they should be? lol lol. I'm thinkin about upgrading mine to a 172, this wee drive tonight was a...

    172 handling Help..... all over the shop

    Well she has just had all 4 wheels refurbd! lol, she 'likes' the kerbs i would say! plus with the steering being off-centre there is obviously something amiss! I would say the geometry is definately out, as hit a bump and each wheel seems to have its own idea of where it wants to go.

    172 handling Help..... all over the shop

    Blaze...........your whole post doesnt make one bit of sense to me? What car repair? I wasnt even going THAT hard as it wasnt my 172, and i know anyone on here with a decent clio would say the same about the way this 172 is driving at the moment. If you care to go into more detail as to what...

    172 handling Help..... all over the shop

    Okay, need some advice guys. I drove Vickys 172 up one of my favourite roads tonight, and i was so so shocked it is beyond belief. Vickys been saying the steerin feels funny lately, so i had a go. Now, ive been punting my clio up this road lately, and know it so well. My 1.2 makes her 172 feel...
