yeah, theyre just right actually, the car sits as it shud with sportline, not with a 12.7 metre gap under the front arches.
i think this was on sportlines:
always wanted one from b4 i cud drive, theyre well styled, not chavvy and good money.
got my 1.4s when i passed at 18, ran it for a year and got the cup, best car for the money, easy!
nah ull be fine mate, just wash the car with a fairly rich mix of shampoo to water to bring as much of the wax of as poss. Then give it a good polish, seal, and re-wax, job done.
same as me then mate, water in the engine bay most likely, or contaminated petrol, take it for a gd spanking now uve filled it up to run some new juice thru the injectors etc.
ah fair enough then, i was thinking major dents, lol.
6500 shudnt be a prob then really. tbh push for 7000 and let them knock u down slightly, may come away with 6750 or so.
hmm, a minter wud go for £6500-£7000, so with the creases and dinks etc id be looking at 6k.
put it up for that and see where you go from there really.
Owing to the relase of the 197 the 182's have come down in price, and thats pushing FF172's down in price rapidly. Thankfully 172 Cups are...
the interior is worth 400-500 depending on condition. steering wheel is £60 or so. The sideskirts cud go for £50 or so. Rear bumper is worth over £100. Spolier is £60 on its own really.
all in all theres a grand straight away just on bits, up to you tho mate.
this the one in the lower right of the dash, the orange one? i think thats the missions light, mine came on the other day too, followed by the ignition waring, then the car went into limp mode.
it was on the empty tho, so i got to a petrol station, filled up and went for a blast, and its fine...
197 drivers are definetly worst, they never bloody wave, miserable gits.
theres a chap round my way that drives an RS meggy, always gives a wave. Most 1*2 owners do too, having said that, as stated, alot of them are driven by middle aged women who havnt got a clue.
does a proper 172 have a slightly longer wheelsbase than a standard clio? the gap between the front wheels and the fornt bumper looks too big comparativly.
just an observation, lol.
car looks mint btw mate.
