Yesterday
Aberdeen roundabouts near the boots
i waas heading down from Peterhead after wedding japes.
around 2:30ish.
I was in silver 172 with the lovely birdshit collection thanks to the seagull ar$eholes.
Tidy 53 plate cup at the McDonalds on way to Broughty Ferry across from Powerhouse and Wickes unit.
CS sticker in rear.
I was parked diagionally from it and went into McD's for a coffee and a char so you were probably in there!
Aparently quite a guid magazine according to our IT dept (p'ah)!
Wee offerta on the go at the moment whereby you get 3 issues for a £1 and a free toolkit, so if you dont like it you get a free toolkit and 3 issues for a pound and thats it...
well sad as it may seem but my 03 plate is on its way from the 'clan' after the missus got a promotion that meant a company car (in the interim its an Accord i-CDTi until October anyway (in tarty EX spec, arctic blue pearl and ivory, 18 inch alloys, sat nav leather).
Many a happy moment in...
Saw what i presume was you with 182 anthracites goign opposite way with some company tailing you............having fun i trust?..........
was around 4pm
Been offered this piece of kit, so just wondered if any peeps on here had any guid/ bad/ indifferent views on it.
I wont be cutting the lower bumper or taking out the fog light for a cold air feed, as its really too much hassle i feel.
Really wondered on what minor bhp/ torque gains? 2bhp/...

Clio given a head start and a pretty lame assed video. Nice to see trackdays on a budget though. Step to one side Donnington!
Right old vid, but sure its a popular choice....
Sounds absolutely awesome pity it got jaked. Well worth the investment for that performance and crisp engine note :approve:

Parked next to me at a clark pollokshaws rd, glasgow on TUESDAY i picked mine up at 545ish and it was there, made mine look a bit high!!
This was scrapping on the ground though and was an import and had dynamique alloys, spied the CS sticker on the back.
In for some warranty work i trust...
Is this a total wind up or what was at A Clark for some warranty japes at Pollokshaws road and they want £7k for a flame red 172.

Guy,
I know you took yours off to polish it recently (top job btw) but wondered what the fixing detail was to the engine block as mine for some reason is loose and not rattles about like a skeleton having a w**k in a discuit tin, which is a concern, so just hoping i can get the damn fine...
For some reason when flicking through the source and the tuner on the radio I have lost medium wave from it and can only have FM, LW or the CD.
The radio is not out of signal either
Further to this it doesnt pick up my CD changer either and it has been checked for all the wires and...
ANyone know how easy it is and what is involved to take this piece off at fix it? It squeaks like crazy and am hoping to get it off to have a gander at it, but not sure how easy it
not sure if this is Frasers Cup, recognise the nr plate
followed you down the exit ramp and onto Bath Street then you went down towards the expressway as i went out towards M8 direction.
Flashed you twice - no reaction Poor show imo
:lolup:
Trivia question time,
why when the clio was given a subtle facelift in jan/feb 04 did all the new non RS clio models get electronic fuel and water temp readouts and the 182 continued the 172s gear with the needles for the fuel and water temp?
Got an email from a friend in finest Mallorca and he was beeming with pride to show off his recent 182.
Not too shabby looking, could do with a clean though. Check out the weather for january!
