You get this sorted Dan? Just remembered i know someone with a small diagnostic machine.... I'll let you know if i can get hold of it in next couple of days for you and can meet you as i'll be about your way

Welcome mate. I like the flamer (i'd loose the stripes but its your car do what you want!). My ph2 172 drove a lot better on 15" wheels so I wouldn't bother changing, tyres are a lot cheaper than 16s aswel. Love that old Ford!

Yep you need are the ones with the bearings and abs rings on mate. You can swap the abs rings over if in good condition. More hassle than its worth to try re use the bearings

Thanks lads. ^ Sorry mate. It wasn't full . It's done that a few times when the your inbox is nearly full warning comes up (with 25 spaces remaining) its saying its full. Must be a glitch. Ill see if one of mods/admin can sort it for me. I've deleted some old PMs now so should be back...

I like them, the colour and wheels go well together. Love them bbs wheels on them, so much so i bought a set ages ago but had to sell them on unfortunately before ever fitting them. Like the fact that they only did a run of 172, not we've sold them so we will up it to 500 etc to make more brass.

Can get half decent ones on amazon for a few quid. As said you will see the difference. May be obvious, but check if your xbox has an hdmi out as iirc some of the early ones didn't.

I've used paisley freights 3 or 4 times to send and collect alloys and around £28 always been spot on. Majority of them are Monday to Friday 8-6 unfortunately.

Does sound like battery, the little clock in centre of dash will be flashing or keep resetting itself. Check when you first get in on a morning. You can get a good quality Bosch for circa £50

Lunar and Ed's Technical grey look stunning! :approve:

Welcome Great work so far!

Welcome mate. Good to see you using it for what you got it for just two weeks after buying it. :approve:

Anybody got an update on this please? ie is the Apple adapter the only one that supports audio atm Got my black 16gb last week and very happy with it. Seems much faster/slicker when using it then my 4 that its replaced. cheers George

Looks miles cleaner now mate. As said get some silver vision indicator bulbs. A lot of people get a 3/4 or smaller front plate so that it doesn't overhang over the lower grill. Looks better as it doesn't break the "lines" of the bumper. Keep up the good work

There was a lad selling a set of Brembo calipers in the for sale section that come with brackets etc to fit with the standard 172/182 280mm front discs iirc. "Swede cup" or similar

Looks clean mate. Get rid of tints, mirror covers back to monaco and lower it and then enjoy it!

^ push the front of handle in and then it sticks out allowing you to pull it open. Nice and sleek

Lovely car, nice change from the black and silvers ones. Enjoy it, they look and sound fantastic. :approve: I've been lucky enough to lend one of these and also the valante version for odd weekends. Awesome cars, everyone loves an Aston.

This might have been Dan (Gee man). He lives near there and goes to the ring in it. He also has a set of Cup turinis with tyres for sale soon, if any of the local lads are interested.

Nice car Tim ;)

Looking good mate. Love the look of a nice clean original cup so i'd personally refurb the wheels silver.

That's where i stopped it at. Had enough by then

I'd avoid the one at the dealers that going to cost you £££ in near future. As said get yourself to Bristol and have a look at the tidy one Daniel is selling.

+1 Looks tidy

They do a "super gold" mate. Same stuff just obviously not blue so people can alternate between them.

No worries. That's strange mate as it's not, and have been receiving pm's yesterday from people.

^ Good advice that You have got yourself a decent handling hot hatch, don't put part worn/ditch finders on it mate. Just save until you can afford decent tyres (if your current ones have life in them obviously). I used Conti sport contact 2 and Mich pe2 on my 172 and both very good tyres...

Yes mate. All the 172/182s use same brake set up, with the only difference being the 172 Cup doesn't have abs.

Looking good Dan. I preferred mine on 15s handling wise mate.

Have a look in the guide section mate and search pads discs. "Jonny1*2" iirc did a good step by step guide with pictures.

Welcome mate, Ye i see loads of RS Clios and Megs on my travels around West and South Yorkshire
