    What wax for a 172 Iceberg Silver ?

    You've got an excellent gloss already there mate, don't think you'll see much of an improvement over that. Might be worth going for a different look and trying to get all the flake out instead? Layers of AJT is supposedly good for that.

    FCS ???

    I think you can theoretically leave whenever you want, but is practically impossible before lunch due to the amount of traffic coming in. EDIT: Actually, there probably is a time before of which you can't leave as it would be a logistical nightmare. I'd guess lunchtime-ish.

    Rear discs 182

    The general consensus seems to be if it's for road use to just stick to the Renault std rear discs mate, they're plenty good enough and have the bearings already pushed in. Cheapest I could find were at Yozzasport.

    Number Plate Back Remover?

    I'd get a hairdryer on it and scrape off as much as possible, then rub some white spirit into the remaining residue.

    Couple of Detailing Questions

    Think you've mixed up two sealants mate, it's either Chemical Guys (I think) Jetseal 109, or (Jeffs) Werkstat Acrylic Jett Trigger - the Jeffs bit is no more.

    Cleaning products?

    There's so many out there, I think I've used a mixture of about 10 for various things over the last few years!

    I would certainly at least try to go back there and say they're not what you ordered.

    OZ F1 CUP Centre Caps - PART NUMBER NEEDED

    Aye that's what I saw. The one with broken clips is next to useless though, nothing to hold the metal clip, so nothing to push the clips against the wheels and hold it in place.

    Insuring a 172 Cup TPFT?

    FFS, the blown tyre is just an example!

    Insuring a 172 Cup TPFT?

    It's not just about driving sensibly though, and if TPFT insurance waS £300, surely fully comp would've been affordable also? What if, for example, a tyre blew whilst you were driving home, which sent you veering into a central reservation, writing the car off? You would lose the entire...

    OZ F1 CUP Centre Caps - PART NUMBER NEEDED

    I'd say around there mate, yeah. I'd say they're about the size of a jammy dodger... but I've not got a jammy dodger spare to measure.

    OZ F1 CUP Centre Caps - PART NUMBER NEEDED

    Not sure mate, but I did see some of these for sale on Ebay yesterday I think.

    Insuring a 172 Cup TPFT?

    Exactly the same happened to me with my old 106 XSi, I'll never get TPFT insurance on a relatively expensive car again. I'll avoid the whole "young driver, fast car" debate and just stick with the statement that, with these cars FC insurance is really the only advisable option.

    Blue 197 Exeter

    I live in Heavitree, used to have a silver ph1 172 and now have a silver 172 Cup. I quite often see another ph1 driving through Heavitree, don't think the guy's on here though.

    i did it!!

    ^Yeah, it's got quite bad today, didn't seem an issue yesterday. Still, got a third of a tank so should be fine for a few days. Must've been another 197 in the garage, seems they're spreading!

    PH 1 172 bump strips

    Nope, the door bump strips slide back, the 'rear' bump strips (smaller parts) slide forward. May need a bit of brute force if they've not moved for 8 years though!

    Very nice mate, that in Marsh Barton? Am sure I saw you filling her up at the petrol station just by the VW garage yesterday...

    Market price of 172 cup's??

    As said, probably about 5200 without belts/service, 5500 with belts done.

    Opinions please!

    I think the PS looks alright, but it might look a bit strange on an otherwise standard Trophy.

    That scamtastic mk1 vee on PH

    The description I imagine is exactly the same as a genuine advertiser's previous advert. The scammer normally copies an old advert, changes the price and just leave an email address with no contact number. It's quite ironic that the scam would actually work better if they asked for more money...

    Brakes Failed!

    I know there are mixed reviews on the effectiveness of braided hoses, bt aren't they recommended for reducing fade after a lengthy bit of driving? Might be worth the upgrade?
