Very nice, love the Recaros. Really like these. Almost bought one a while back, gutted I’ve not tried one.

Nice to see you in another ph1 mate. Looks like a really nice example.

Absolutely beautiful mate. Congrats! Bet the days are dragging!! I think it looks really nice on those wheels, different to the usual black multi spokes.

Ph1 172 gearstick or richbrook ball gearknob changes the feel. Nice exhaust and enjoy!

this is worrying for a future purchase. I thought this era Clio didn’t rust so I was under the impression they were treated. Scary to see rust down there. Reminds me of the old minis.

Iirc driving without insurance is 6 points and a fine, mot and tax will be dealt with via a fine by dvla I think. Maybe a ban as he failed to even do one of the three. Stupid though because of the risk to others. I can’t see how anyone can get away with it nowadays though.

What a transformation and a great start!!

it def looks too low for springs alone. As above, once the headlights are polished up it will look even better. I need another 182!! Miss mine! ?

Looks nice. Definitely get some more pictures up. (Looks like a Fabia splitter in the pics, not a bad thing, most people have fitted them!) also got the bonus of Turini’s!!

Looks really nice for the miles! Us indicators I believe. Bmw and vw people have them.

It has more weight to it and just feels better, more positive. Might have been in my mind but it felt good.

I’ve fitted both in the past. The ph1 gearstick should come complete as the whole unit so replaces your existing one and was the nicest but also the more difficult of the two having to lower the exhaust slightly to fit it. (Might be able to manoeuvre round it) but was the best for feel in my...

Awesome project and an epic other owned list! Love racing blue, and the pictures look amazing.

Beautiful mate! I quite like the grill stickers, not as offensive as some stickers you see.... +1 on the steep drive!

Really nice cup. I’m sure I saw you the other week at aldi. You made me regret not getting another renaultsport clio! Looked really nice though.

I had the same situation at the same point roughly putting the bolt back in when I changed my rear springs on my old 172. Renault didn’t stock it but I managed to get a bolt from a local little nut and bolt shop which apparently was stronger. Had to get someone to drill it out for me because I...

beautiful!! congrats!

'Final edition' though!! 2004?? lol

I quite like the look of the Xr. I’m pretty sure I can live with the retina lcd but the size of the phone in hand will be the test. I’m not a baller by any means and the cost of the Xs is just so high. Hopefully the Xr will be a decent price difference. O2 haven’t released prices yet I don’t think.

Your 172 is absolutely beautiful anyway but the pictures above are something else!! So clean!!

I’ve taken a car for mot with next to no fuel in it. Embarrassing worrying it would die on the ramp. Lol. I’m the same as you but I’m panicking more I think. I’ve checked everything I can think and changed bits that needed but it’s always worrying.

A padded coat or similar for when your missus attacks you because it's cold and raining and she needs somewhere to plug her straighteners in.

It did have yes I think. It was a 2003 172.

I don't recall it coming loose at all. As probably won't be taking it off then superglue is a good idea. Will stop it coming undone.

I replaced the one on my 172 with one from eBay for about £15 I think. never had a problem with it.

you'll like it now, but wait till the winter. you'll be freezing!!!

definitely check when belts were done but for a grand thats a bargain potentially. why do I never get offered cars like this!!

Love both of them but can't help thinking how much nicer the silver is, really suits the shape.

Very nice car. Also black gold was only on 182 and pearl black only on the 172 (yours)

If I remember correctly there is a grub screw that you tighten. Its such a nice gearknob to use though and massively better than the horrid original one. Just be careful removing the old one. I cut my thumb really badly doing it. Like a man I carried on though (and cried later!)
