In april, i had abit of a mad moment and did 59mph in a 30, dual carriageway out of town etc but hell im not condoning it. Came face to face with a mobile speed van, boot lid up, bam got flashed.
So, i get a letter through saying blah blah due to the speed this needs to be delt with in court...
Cheers mate! Watched your car set off yesterday, made me think hmmmm Cups look good! Arse was on the floor, looks like its got plenty of torque like you were saying!
Wasnt as easy to fit as id thought, but hey ho
Road is from my house into Saddleworth, go from Yorskhire, through Kirklees and...
Why were u changing them?
On my 51 plate 172 the guy before had replaced one of the bulbs with an Osram one, and it was white, where as the stock bulb has a blue tint
My 02 plate one has two blue tinted ones, which i presume are stock
Just take out the front sidelight bulbs, dont go taking out fuses as it'll knock out the rears too
Main beam still works, they're a totally different bulb. Mine has no front sidelights, only because one of them blew so i just took them out!
Who's is the Clio Turbo, this one?
Coming home on A1, he looked away with the fairies, next thing i know he was right behind me! Mate was asking what was in it, then we see the intercooler!!
2 1/2 hours drive down, because my navigator got the wrong motorway lol, but my 1st FCS was brilliant!
Really worth the £12.50, took my mates white VTS down the 0-60 because he was too scared, 6.7 second inc mahooosive wheelspin setting off!
Parked in CS but didnt see anyone to talk to, so...
Shes poorly, dirty and bruised
Poorly because of what i think is a knackered track rod end, dirty because of the rain and living here, and bruised because of a smashed foglight!
She needs some TLC in time for French Car Show lol
What colour is that though, as in which colour spray?
I like, ive got a set of 2.0 badges that i took off my black 172 to spray blue, i did, but before i finished them someone crashed into me lol
Hmmmm, im undecided wether to do my 172 wheels in anthracite or buy some cupped 182 wheels like a had on my black 172
I quite like that, mines the same colour too
Well i work for Ford so im sorted for ramps and toold etc.
I didnt realise you could leave the loom on it, thats excellent! Got a Ranger engine out atm, and the wirings a nightmare!!
Once blocks out though, its a doddle! Bell housing bolts, and cam cover off and we're living the dream!
My 172 needs a timing belt, its 5 years old and is on 61k. Thing is, it would also benifit from a clutch, it judders when setting off etc.
I was looking on Autodata, and the book time for the timing belt is 5.5 hours, and the book time for the clutch is something like 7.5!
So, i looked at...
I love those wheels, had them on my Saxo in 15" form, veeeeery light!
BUT verrrrrrrrry hard to keep clean, you'll wash them, then go down the rd, and the back ones will be dirty!
One good thing is though they can be touched up really easy, i just bought a black touch up pen from Halfords, u...
