petrol blue or liquid yellow.

Its good for the engine to get a good thrashing every now and again otherwise it gets all coked up and will prob fail the emissions test come MOT time. Its fine when the engines warm, i give my mum's polo a 6k clear out every now and again otherwise it runs as rough as a badgers arse.

Unlikely to be the headgasket, lusty drives like a pussy. How many miles is she on?

Will they really rub, the alloys are only 15's, the tyres are quite high profile though, they are pretty much the same rolling radius as the 14" steelies that were on there before....

Not keen on the rims.

Here she is, if I just buy springs the shocks are going to get knackered, but I can't stretch to coilovers.... Im thinking a full Apex -60mm kit with shocks, any other suggestions? KTEC do one called 'ulimate' is this any good? Alex

In that case your a complete bell end.

Love it!

There is more risk for the insurance company with you driving the car than your parents. The insurance company thinking they are insuring your parents (low risk) as the main driver, and you as a named driver (use it every now and again, you are high risk being a young driver etc. A typical...

The idea is the named driver does less miles than the policy holder. Your wrong get over it.

No, how about wedging a knife under the drivers seat facing upwards :evil:

Way way over priced. I paid £2.5k for my ph2 with 48k on the clock!

Fair point. My 1.2 16v isn't a 172 replica but is subtly modified, obviously this is a complete waste and money and I should have gone out and got a 172. Well i've got news for you I don't want a 172! Im lucky in that I could afford to go and buy one now, but Im not going to. Alot of people say...

Certainly different, not my cup of tea but good effort. I prefer Euro tbh, but I like what you have done with the door strips, I wouldn't have the guts though.

Hi guy, right im going to start looking into getting my car lowered... Coilovers appear to be £500+ My best bet appears to be a full suspension kit (springs and dampers). KTEC do an Ulitmate suspension kit, is this any good? I want to go down to a max of 60mm, which are the kits to avoid and why...

Your covered if your the main driver on a parents policy. But if the policy is in your parents name with yourself as a named (secondary driver) and the car is yours and you use the car the most, then your insurance could potentially be invalid if you ever had to claim, insurance companies call...

No your not covered. I ve seen it happen. If you have a bump they will try to wiggle out of paying in anyway they can, and as soon as they see the mods they will know its your car not your parents, then they will interview your neighbours, employer etc to see who drives it the most. When they...

Agreed. They are both 75bhp, but the the new ones are weighed down with airbags etc. I ve driven a few new 1.2 16vs and the low mileage ones are dog slow. My mates 04 plate with 12k won't even wheelspin! My 51plater isn't that bad, nicely run in with 56k on the clock, but I was dead level with a...

Oh rite, well I don't know about your mum but why the fcuk would a lady with 21yrs no claims insure a modded up 1.2. Anyones mum here got a big bore 4, and tints? Get real mate if you declare the mods you are rumbled. Go on your own policy, if you can't afford the insurance on your own and do it...

Thanks, I wish! Unfortunatly they are the standard grey expression seats with the zig zag stitching, looks like a yr 9 technology project!

Nice pad!

8.6 or whatever is utter b****cks, although the 1.4rt's are quicker than the newer 1.2 16v's.

Yeah needs lowering badly! Had the choice between getting it lowered and getting the cambelt changed which was due. Went with the safe option so need to wait for the money to build up again!

Can anyone confirm the above?

Green exterior and a white interior, I think your mistaken my friend that is no cup, thats a 172 exclusive. If it does turn out to be a cup I wouldn't put it in the dishwasher or any other damp situations due to no abs!
