was waiting for that one ;) She will get a good run out this weekend i expect, see if i can get some better pics :D Need new tyres though, only got 3000 miles out these pair of fronts...

Hmm, ok il let you off for now........;) Thing is iv got that sad that i genuinly dont wanna get it out the garage as i dont want it getting dirty :o

Is that all she gets? :dapprove:

same with mine, i 'should' be hitting around 136/137k by now, but have had use of other vehicles lately, though as from end of this week she will be back into full time use :) And i cant wait, iv not driven her in nearly 2 weeks,i need a ph1 hit lol

Lol, you and me knowz it ;) Whats yours hitting now?

Ah right, not very good then mate? (thank you btw :) ) And thank you to everyone for the kind words, its nice to see the old girl is liked! :o

i think im the only one in the world that likes the ph1 dash lol Genuinly there isn't one thing i prefere on the ph2 over the ph1 probably why i own a ph1 lol

Cheers Andy, not that either of yours need it! ;)

Yes, even in standard form a std one is fantastic Or a Saxo VTS/106 GTi

the 'shift ' light comes on at different times iv found, some cars 7k, some 6.8k Also its there simply as a gimic. Its an indication that you are nearing the rev limit, its been called an optimum shift light, a change before you blow up light lol, but in reality its a gimic. Mine doesnt have...

Id say switch is knackered mate, and leaking through onto the plug at a guess

Yup, no offence to anyone with Ph2 stuff, but i love the Ph1 rear end, and if i wanted a Ph2 i would have bought one lol :)

Its a cat back Blueflame system mate, not overly keen on the tailpipes from cirtain angles but sounds just lovely

I would prefere a high mile car that has been used every day, than a very low mile car Reaon being i had a mk2 astra with 28k, and ended up with problems due to it never being used My 172 has 133k now, runs as good as ever, original clutch, box etc

Thank you guys, comments are really nice :) Dave, yes the wheels are a light Anth, will be done again in the same colour

Cheers guys :) Wheels will be done again soon, as they are scabby up close

they made 117 orginally, iv only ever seen 2 others, but then again i dont see many ph1's about

Cheers for all the comments guys :) Lol @ Dan, i did wonder when i noticed, but it was excess water runnig off, when i moved it from my parents house to mine ( I dont have elec in my garage yet)

Nick P popped over a few weeks ago,and said he would kindly give my car a detaqil for me, results are stunning,no more swearl marks, no hazyness, even my stone chipped front end looks good! will get better picks up when the weather permits Not too bad for 133,909 as per last time i checked lol

really good cars, we have had a few in, as said a 2nd hand bargain, and the amount of toys in them is crazy

kind of mate, all 1*2's use the same plugs, but its widly accepted and advised to use these recommended ones, iv tried others and mine has run badly on them, i then put these recommended plugs in and they sorted out my running problems, the code is pfr6e-10s if i remember correctly

I cant see it as im at work, il have a look when i get home, thanks matey! :D

mate we cant answer that! Read Leigh's answer again, if it is just after a reset, then it will drop quickly, if like mine you havent reset for a few thousand miles then mine can idle for ages and mine wont move at all

Anyone know of where i can get one from for a ph1 box?

cool, looking forward to more pics! Whats the miles fella?

Id get the PH2 kit fella, as said the idlers different between PH1 and 2, so as you have a PH" bottom end, order a PH2 kit :)

sounds like they have done something wrong there mate, if its the top one, you have to jack up the engine, so make sure they did this, as the engine can drop down and could cause a bit of damage

133k so far, still going strong

spot on mate, walking past you wouldnt know its there, jelous i am!

To be fair, Andy's Trophy is MINT, and love the sound of that new exhaust, every time i see it i get more jelous
