    My New 172 :)

    Absolutely. Iceburg rocks when its all cleaned up. I know its a real stuck record kind of comment, but get yourself some silvervision indicator lamps. Theyre cheap and make a massive difference imho.

    182 Trophy test drive

    iirc the Sachs dampers cost like 10 times more than the ones on the standard 182/Cup. I would imagine that coilovers are a far more viable proposition in terms of cost against performance.

    which is the better tyre

    Its all very well saying dont drive fast in the wet, but no matter how slowly you drive you may still have to make drastic manouvers in case of an emergency. I know I would be more comfortable with a tyre that would provide me with a little bit of grip in the wet, just in case. Such an...

    No 172`s near midlands

    For the same reason the 182 prices are doing the same. Theyve essentially been superceded, the 172 by the 182 and the 182/Cup by the trophy. They are no longer the latest model, thus are less in demand thus cost less. Things areent helped by the fact there are quite a lot about that were...

    No 172`s near midlands

    You should get an 03 or at a push a 53 for 8k imho. Although Ive seen people trying to sell 02 plates for like 7,800. lol. Be careful as imports tend to sell for about £1000 less than UK cars, which may explain why touve seen 02 plates up for more tan 03s. It doesnt make much difference...

    video clio rs 3

    Looks more like a 307 to me from certain angles. I agree with Vtec Abuser, the back end lets it down. Far too subtle and the lights are all wrong..

    Cleaning help - Clay

    I want to clay my car, but Ive run out of QD. Is there anything else I can use?? If Im claying it, is it worth washing with washing up liquid to get rid of any remaing wax etc that may still be on the car? TIA

    williams - legend

    Standard cups hve done 14.5 ... without stripping. Why any Williams owner should feel the need to try and brag about straight line speed is beyond me. Its one of the all time best handling FWD cars. Its no faster than a 172 in a straight line in standard trim. But accordng to certain owners...
