Morning All !
As some of you know and some of you dont, I have been trying to sell my car. Well yesterday, Anna from Bristol bought it and she is now the new (hopefully happy) owner of a Pearl Black MKII 172 ! It was a very very very weird feeling seeing the car being driven away by someone...
I am very conscious about where I park my car and I park it in a multi-storey car park when I am working. But, my ex-girlfriend (who I am very good friends with) always parks next to me and we park the cars so close to each other that there is miles of space either side to stop people opening...
paul172, exactly what I wanted to know ! Cheers for that mate ! I will book it in on the weekend to get it done. Thanks again !
One quick question, did they do a good job and did they come to you and fit it at your home or work ?
PS GR, yes they are exactly the same as those !
I am indeed THAT random Welsh guy ! I drive (at the moment) a Black 172 but of course you already knew that...............
Mike, that makes you Welsh, I knew you were a pedigree, welcome to our elite club !
;)
Well I am in the process of selling the car but I obviously want the job to be done right.
If someone has had their screen replaced on their 172, was it badged as the original one was ?
Had Autoglass come out to try and repair the stone chip on my windscreen yesterday and they could not fix it properly and you can still see the chip so I am going to have to get the windscreen replaced under the insurance, have to pay £50 excess to get it done.
Just got some questions, has...
MY GOD ! This has to be one of the funniest threads I have ever read ! SUPERB ! Some of these stories had me crying at my desk ! The people I work with are giving me very strange looks right now as I am sitting at my desk in a fit of laughter ! ha ha ha ha !
As for me, I dont think I have...
Afternoon all !
I was just wondering how many of you who have tried to sell your MKII 172s have actually managed to do so or how many of you know people who have managed to sell them ? I am not looking to sell mine as I am very happy with it but when the time comes when I might sell then I...
Rob, it is a MKI or at least it would be a MKI in the UK as the centre console where the time and temp are displayed on the dash and also the vents are definitely MKI as the MKII time and temp display is more flush with the dashboard but as you can see from that pic it is higher than the dash...

That is more what I was thinking Marc, any chance I get I boot it but recently I just havent driven it as much as I used to. Not sure whether it is because the novelty has worn off or it is just because the weather does not really allow fast driving right now.
At the moment I am probably driving it for an hour a day, maybe a little more. I NEVER thrash it before it has warmed up but I was just wondering if it will turn out to be slower because I am not thrashing it all the time. It has only done 5100 miles.
Morming All !
Something just occured to me. I have not really booted my car much recently, for around the last month or so because of the weather and also because I have not been out in the car in the nights as much as I used to to give it a good thrashing. I just got a question really...

Cheers guys, I got a stone chip in the middle of the screen from Brands Hatch too so it may be worth getting it repaired at the same time, I will check with my insurance to see if it will affect premiums, hope not.
Is there any way to get rid of scratches on your windscreen ? My wipers went across the screen and decided to leave a nice round scratch on my screen and in the sunlight it is seriously doing my head in ! Any advice ?
