Ok, so few months back i bought a new genuine back box as the old one fell off and was replaced with an aftermarket box which sounded terrible so i bought genuine.
Now, my centre section snapped, so ive taken it all off and left it at work. For the past 3 days ive just had 1/2 the centre...
My 1st 172 was a Motorpoint import, and my current 172 is a Trade Sales Of Slough import. Both had no problems, fitted my own locking wheel bolts and never been bothered about an alarm
Doesnt effect insurance, just have to know the chassis number for Reanult parts
Yea thats where i saw you, by the roundabout going in. The gf said 'maybe they can tell you have a Clio because they still look at you even when ur driving my car' lol
Yea its a Fabia vRS, she hates it and is desperate to get another MINI CS. If, or when i see him again and im in a position to...
1stly the guy tried to run my g/f off the road, then last night he cut me up, again in the g/fs car! He drives it like he stole it, but wats funny is he's a suited grey haired guy!
2nd two were both silver 172s at Asda Huddersfield, one had white Turinis and one had dark coloured 172 wheels...
Ever since my 172 had a new clutch, ive noticed its alot more 'bellowy', it basically sounds like its got a open cone filter on it or something!
So, today i thought id have a look, and noticed there was something missing?
I took the air box out, and i presume theres a pipe missing underneath...
See the 182 quite alot, but yesterday i noticed there was a girl driving it. Has Trophy Turinis and maybe a Yozza?
Also, noticed the silver 172 on the M62 earlier, has anthracite 2118s on. Was in the g/fs vRS
6 previous owners
Sounds good, but maybe too good
1.2 subframes are the same bar one or two bolt holes for the lower gearbox mounts. I bent one on my 1st 172, cost like £30
Not proper fucked, but worth more than scrap! They were mint when i sold it, then the new owner cough Phil Hill ;) cough used the curbs to park!
Ive been honest with the listing, maybe too honest lol, but if they dont sell ill scrap them! I dont think the two i had on the front do have dinks...
Yes, it really did have purple wheels! In a pub carpark in the Emley area yesterday?
Also, anyone on here own a RB 197 and lives near me in Kirkheaton?
Ive placed a bid on it at auction yesterday, but before i agree to the sale (the reserve is a few £ higher than i bid), i wondered what this could be?
Basically it wont idle, it drives and revs fine, but cuts out if you let the revs drop?
Any ideas?
Anyone heard of this? Have to over-rev it to get it to go anywhere? Not my car, nor have i looked at it so no further info but maybe this indicates a missfire?
Towards Hollingworth Lake? b*****d, i slowed right down there too cos thought that was the obvious route but couldn't see anyone and the guy behind me weren't making out like that was the way
Owel, maybe next time!
It wasnt the brightest idea for the only people who knew where we were going to keep speeding off into the distance. I lost everyone after the set of tempory lights, thinking back did people turn off before them? I waited over the brow for ages and when noone came i turned round but by that time...
Im not quite a meet virgin but havent been on one for a few years cos was put off by the last Yorkshire meet as everyone seemed to hav lil groups already
