    What's this thing?

    As above, I have no clue what this thing is. It sits under the holes on the right, there's foam under it and i'm a bit worried about it getting blocked with satin black paint.

    Will this work on a Mk2 Clio?

    I'm in the process of trying to lift the 172s interior a bit, i'm spraying bit's of trim satin black and while I was searching for bits and pieces on ebay I found this...

    GW 200 Stratford Upon Avon

    GW 200 driving into Stratford at 6:00pm today on the A439 Warwick Rd. Couldn't tell if it was a cup or not, as I was driving in the other direction in an Iceburg 172.

    Standard rear exhaust mount.

    Mines knackered and I want to replace it, I know for £35quid I can get the Prima racing one, but for a tenner I can get a new standard one off ebay, or £15quid from ECP. Is it worth me getting one, do they last very long or are they just crap and not worth buying? This is what i'm thinking of...

    RB 182 Stratford Upon Avon

    10am driving away from Stratford on the A439 Warwick Rd, I was going the other way in an Iceburg 172. I flashed you, but you looked very serious. :(

    Which engine mount is best?

    I've done a search and all I can find are threads asking, 'should I fit one?' or 'are they any good?' What I want to know is are there many options and which one is best? As far as I can tell my choices are the K-Tec one. Then there's this Vibra Technics one that I only heard of the other...

    Coolant leak.

    This started a few days ago when we had the baking hot weather, not sure if that's relevant or not. It's not easy to take a photo of it but hopefully it shows where it's leaking from, it's the hose on the left of the rad, it'll be a bumper off job but I just though i'd get a few peoples...

    Rattle can refurb?

    Now bare with me on this. My standard 172 alloys are curbed and dented to f*ck and would need a full refurb to make them look even half decent, which I just simply can't afford seeing as the belts are due this year, amongst other things. I know I might have to get the old flame suit out for...

    172cup CPR Garage Coventry

    Just went to pick up my 172 from CPR (Citroen Peugeot Renault) specialists garage Coventry, and there was an absolute mint MB 172cup sitting outside. The garage bloke said you're having limp mode problems. I'm having startup problems but not today, so they couldn't find a bloody thing wrong...

    Battery Earth

    My car's having problems stating and i'm now pretty sure it's the battery earth, wouldn't start this morning and got the clicking noise (starter motor?) and dash lights flashing. When it finally fired up the dash clock was reset to 0:00, the battery is fully charged because I checked it the...

    Spraying/Sanding 'Clio' Badge

    I've read through alot of threads about spraying the diamonds/bullets/badges, so i've got an idea about how it's done, even though i've never done anything like this before, but the best way to learn anything is by doing. I've just removed the 'Clio' badge off the boot and i've got all the...

    Painted Diamond Badge covers

    Not sure if this has been posted before, but I thought it was worth putting up. Seeing as painting a Diamond yourself takes about £30 quids worth of supplies, £10 quid is quite a cheap deal and if you don't like it you can just take it off...

    Blackpool illuminations on start up.

    Every now and again when I start the car, all the dash lights come on and the needles die, as soon as the engine's started they all go off and the needles return to normal. I plugged in my RSTuner but there were no faults present, well none that it could find anyway, the car runs fine with no...

    Iceburg 172 Coventry

    Parked on Aldermans Green Rd 11:00am-12:30, I was walking my dog down the Slough and drove past it both ways. No CS sticker but worth a go to see if it's anyone on here.

    Oil Breather change?

    I just had a random thought about oil breathers. I've had a V6 espace box fitted for nearly two years now, aswell as an oil breather like this to replace the breather pipe that's in the shed. I've had the same one fitted since I swapped the airbox over, every year I clean the air filter but...

    Red 1*2 Coventry.

    3:15 Bell Green Rd today. It's hard to tell what kind of 1*2 it was in this dull, rainy, sh*t weather. Red 1*2 with a cup spoiler, so not a trophy although the colour was almost identical, but was too dark to be a 'bean'. Christ knows tbh in this weather, didn't get time to look at the sills or...

    Kumho KH31s

    Has anyone got these or used them? (Not KU31s) KH31s I've had a pair of Kumho KH31s put on the back, do they take some wearing in or somthing? Because I swear the PE2s I had with 2mm of tread had more grip, i've been going around corners at the same speed as I did in my spent PE2s and the back...

    Tasty brunette in an Inferno 182 Coventry.

    Around 1:45pm today, was behind me from Sky Blue Way all the way down The Pheonix Way A444, untill Courthouse Green roundabout at Sainsbury's. Car looked very nice, as did you. ;) Sorry no pics lads, I was driving on busy roads and it would have been dangerous, not to mention a little rapey.

    First thing this morning i'm driving down the road and hear a clunk then see something bouncing down the road behind me, I turn around and go back up the street and a passer by flags me down and says 'something just fell off your car mate' this was sitting in the road. I've tried searching...

    I was happily chatting away on CS and my laptop locked up, nothing new there tbh, internet explorer not responding so the old end program message came up, clicked that and it was totally locked up, after a few mins I hit the power button. I've now got this message that says : I don't have an...

    Ginetta Junior VS Pigeon

    Catching up with the weekends BTCC on my day off, and saw what I thought was one brave pigeon standing on the track during the Ginetta junior race, only to realise it was actually the dumbest.
