Lesson learned I'd imagine.

Can't remember, I work in Worcester so could of been anywhere! I was in lady ****-****.

I've seen this in worcester. Pipes made me want to use it as a wheel-barrow. Otherwise nice.

Fred told me it's a ball-ache, that's the only thing I know about it! Try pm'ing someone that's worked with them a fair bit, Fred/Foxy etc.

I used to get 35 on the 172's, 32 on the 182's. But I do a lot of motorway miles.

Got a friend looking at a Valver, and I know nothing about them. Car seems solid, but on start up having been sat for a day or so he said that there is a small tapping noise, once it is walm it goes away and is fine, it only seems to happen when it has been sitting for a few days not being used...

Posted before, but still impressive.

Think I'd rather save up for an RMA track day there.

Wish I could get over, looks awesome. One thing thats bothered me recently, is it worth it? I read about a lot of people going and only getting a few laps in, is it worth it given the hassle getting over there? Can you only do 1 lap at a time?

Suppose it depends on useage. I'd say for purely road useage -Vmaxx coilovers 450ish set-up -Uprated brakes 200ish -Advanced driver training

Adjusting the throttle stop made no difference to mine, the throttle will still stick at the same point.

They do sound epic, much better than the f430 IMO.

I'm rofl, hard right about now. Kit-kat for predictive powers? Guess who's car ;)

Centre badges need sorting on the wheels.

Cracking cars, good to drive, quick, well built. They are common for a reason.

Better to drive, but only slightly. £1k on a 172? 4-5 track days. There's nothing else you'll do that will bring more enjoyment from the car.

Some great roads near Cheltenham. Lucky escape!

Indeed. Elderly, diabetic, old ladies with Glaucoma have an excellent safety record behind the wheel.

I'd insure it in an elderley relatives name, and have the annual mileage as 1k.

I'm lol'ing so hard!

You might not think they would refuse but they would be perfectly within their rights not too. As it was described to me, ignorance is not a valid excuse. Its your responsibility to ensure the details are correct, not theirs.

Insurance works on declaration of truth. When you sign the paperwork they'll send you are confirming the details. Wrong car, they could quite easily refuse a pay-out.

Cruise maintains your speed even if you don't touch the throttle. Speed limiter you still have to apply throttle, but it stops you going above a set speed.

Yep.

One direction is cruise, one is speed limiter.

FFS, doesn't sound good! I'll look after the 182 ;).

Any news on the speeding issue?

If that's the choice, keep it in fella. Won't do any harm, and you'll only need to use it once (or get stuck without it) to appreciate it.

Just do similar to my bodge spring fix. It works, it's cheap, can't see the -ve tbh.

OT, but did you get the brake lines sorted?
