Right, once i get my payrise or new job (depending on what comes first - lol!) im going to buy a 172 as an integra is out of my price range!
Looking at a budget of around 6500/7k. So a mk1 is on the list. I have seen 2 in this price range at garages local to me - one was blue with 40k and...
Yeah i know its a 172 but it seems to have different badges down the side and red calipers? Think these were added by the previous owner or is this a special edition?? Its at a garage and was just interested to know before i go and have a look...
want to show my mate what this looks like as getting mine soon, the one with the heatshield arround it - not the relocated one. cheers!
Oh, its the one for a valver!!
Took mine off and now the light on my temperature reading has gone - u can make out the temp when the light shines on it! has removing the stalk done this or just a coincedence?
Lunners De-cats make - i put my cat back on yesterday for the MOT and the difference was very noticiable - expecially on the noise front, exhaust was much quieter and didnt pop anymore :cry:............. only till the weekend tho!! :D
Forgot the phase 2 clio interior i was watching on ebay ended earlier today and it went for £29!!! DOH me!

Might be thinking of selling and was wondering what i...
A Dark diablo red sort of colour? there is one down my way and im sure it did not used to have sport badges on - whats the things to look out for that differ from a real 172 and replica? are the side basges the same?
Be aware that not all companies accept your 3 years free insurance as NCB - just been informed by my mate who works for a insurance company!
Not that it affects me as im old (ish)
Just make sure you ask them if they accept it as NCB before you accept the quote!
Fingers crossed!!!
Lights are all working, tyres are legal, new brakes being fitted all round today, body is solid.....
what else should i check over?!!
I recently changed insurance and my new insurance company want proof of my NCB - i rang my previous insurerer and they said thats no problem.. but they asked what they needed to be written in the letter :confused:
Anybody had a nncb proof letter before and what do i need them to write?
When the Clio 16v was released do you reckon it was the best hot hatch of its time (before the williams that is) - much like the 172/182 is now?
Was just thinking of its competition at the time (1992)
Fiesta XR2i 16v
Fiesta RS1800
Golf GTi
Suziki Swift Gti
Probably a few others I...
Anyone got any idea what this will look like on its release - have heard bad stories that its going to be taller and more people carrier like - but if you believe everything you here.... well!!
HMMMMMMMMM - all from a chip?

ok......... my valver currently sits as a phase 1 with a phase 2 bootstrip.....
what should i do next:
Options are:
A: phase 2 rear lights & front grille
B: as above with phase 2 side strips
C: go back to phase 1 rear grille and keep as phase 1 original?
All opinions welcome!!!
Anyone know when these will be released and when cliosport will do the group buy? I know that k-tec are charging £200 + delivery (inc vat) so anygroup buy discount will make me :D
So.... how many of us are naughty boys and girls and have illegal number plates? Have you been pulled over for them yet?
I have a 3/4 size plate at the front and not been pulled yet - traffic police have seen me many times and have not seem bothered!
