i'd be interested in finding this out too.

If you mean that burgundy 306 -it was fooking hideous:dead: the bass coming from it was just rediculous (I think they had one of those bass cd's) as none of the tunes had any words in. As I said in the meet thread - you should have come & said hello:)

I saw a dude in a blue 182 (the metallic blue, not the solid blue) yesterday afternoon when I was going to the gym. It came down the road where Hollywoods used to be, did a three pointer & booted off, then I heard it screech round the mini roundabout & turn right. The tyre screeching was...

loads of audio places sell it, most charge an arm & a leg though. Audio stands at car shows sell it quite cheaply, so if your planning on going to one, you'd be able to pick some up there.

jay - do they have a website ??

^ I had mine done at torsion ages ago - but i too am not sure if they still exist, if you want their number drop me a pm & i'll give it to you.

I hate that colour, personally I think it looks w*nk. Also 22k seems a lot for it - does it not ???

bump - any one know about my question with fancy plates ?? they are rubbish at getting back to me.

I think it's quite rare to get sat nav on a 182, seems a good price that car (if its legit)

I'm looking to get a cut down one for the front of my car - I want to keep the standard sized lettering, but with the plate a bit smaller (not silly small though) I emailed fancy plates the other day asking if I can have that & they never got back to me:dapprove: Does any one know if they'll...

Can't you just get the universal rubber blades from halford & cut them down ?? Thats what my dad does for the rear one on his 172.

I don't understand it either, in fact i've been to a few vw shows in the past & didn't realise that was part of the look tbh, i thought the cars/buses were just knackered. The pic of the silver beetle with the roof rack & chrome hubcaps cracks me up - look at him trying to make it look as if...

^ totally agree with you comment's there fella. I remember I spent about four months about four years ago looking for a decent rs turbo (ideally wanted a 90 spec erst, but would have settled for a mint fiesta rst) had to admit defeat in the end:dapprove: - hence how come I ended owning a mint...

Saw it heading towards Angel from Old Street roundabout about 8pm (tuesday) it was a few cars behind an Alfa 147 gta :cool: (I was admiring the gta then I saw the trophy a few cars back) Me - I was on a big red bus:( (the 43) going to Monument from the gym.

there is one round the corner to me identical to that in the pic:dead:

I have never seen the plates that Mike's on about at all - I have seen like 123 X 123 though (a bit like diplomat plates, but with an x in the middle)

erm, almost double posted there !

Maybe its the one I saw in the FF car park the other week ?? I have nver seen any other racing blue blue's around with stripes.

I was just going to make that comment - i see its still riding on the xr3i dog legs ;) It looks cracking apart from those wheels- maybe some multi spokes on it would finish it off ?

I'm not feeling it at all tbh. I love the rest of the car, just not the bonnet, if I were to see it for real then maybe i'd have a different opinion.

I was going to ask what conversion you were having done - then I saw the pics of the volvo 1.7t block ;)

Mofo - I do understand about the sleeper idea (I didn't realise you were talking about that idea tbh:o ) & if your serious about it & have the money to do it then I would go for it:approve: As FM says you'll need the brakes etc as you want it to stop. I know of some people who shove in a...

Persoanlly i'd save the money and buy the car that the engine actually came in:) By the time you've messed about having an engine conversion & insuring it its prob cheaper to just buy the 172;) I know a lot of people moan about insurance (not you) but it'll work out cheaper in the long run...

can I get a reeeee post !!!!;) Serioulsy though, its not the first one to be put on there & I doubt it'll be the last one.

Having owned a standard valver & driven a mk2 172 a lot I think the valver does sound better, both inside & outside:approve: The 172 when cained is very loud inside:dapprove: but tbh it doesn't sound that great:( - it does however sound nice from outside, as my dad has proved many a time.

I'm pretty sure you ask them to take a pic with a jug of custard on the roof of the car (or something like that any way) :eek:

ah ok, i'll give that a try. Thanks.

Looks alright jon:) do you have any plans to mod it ??

^ I guess if I do that i'll lose stuff off of it though ??
