It wouldn't be fun without all the niggles, surely it can't take much to figure out what's making the sunroof leak? MASSIVE towel below it, then watering can until you suss it, you should see it running in from the top if it's leaking that badly though surely?

Looks great. It needs wheels to make it look superb though. I assume you avoided using the pressure washer for now?

Springs have made that look superb!

That's strange that they're 18's, they look crazy small compared to my old ones:

Brake cleaner.

Why is this so difficult with spacers, get a tape measure, measure how far from the wheel to the edge of the arch, decide how far you want the wheels to sit, take this measurement, order nearest size spacers.

£3500 for something that can go wrong again in a year???? And you're not bothered about that? Jesus f**k.

There are internet services which let you do this, but you can't do it from your phone iirc.

You've got a bit handy eh wee man? I'm glad I got a run out in it before it s**t itself! :D

LOL @ Ginger. How are you finding it dude?

Plastic inserts? The bit at the bottom, you can often pick them up on here.

As said, pick up a new caliper second hand for pennies and you're sorted.

Nice pics there OP, picked up the colours well.

Jesus.

Sometimes, if someone isn't familiar with the 172, they will remove the rear disc and the bearing will be stuck to it and it looks flush and all one piece, they then fit the new disc without it and are none the wiser..

Do an exchange plus cash for the itb's dan!!! Sorry to see that stu, proper shame.

I bloody love that! FYI the gear knob is a weighted zhp knob. Proper nice car though, awesome.

It's a compliment mate, honest. :o

I'd agree actually. Last year, 900 (3 years NCB) This year, 700, (4 years NCB but one non fault accident declared)

You're a special kinda guy, kinda like a retarded puppy, you just can't help but love it.

Looks awesome. Whilst I'm aware it's not being drive, tyre shine! Brown tyres are not cool with black wheels.

Get you, going abroad and s**t.

I like the centre console.

Clutch is a bit of a fucker to do at home, but possible. Give Danny at 519 a call, he's only about 1 hour 15 away from essex, it was him I used when I had my 172.

Any reason you've not replaced those rear discs? They look like they're created from rust. Black wheels are a little.... I'm not sure.. think silver would have looked better.

That little wheel is manual adjustment mate, he's just saying make sure the adjust is in the slot properly. Have a check, you'll be able to see if they're not.

I've been looking a little italic myself. You should send this over to autosmart in an email and they might send you a freebie out of pity.

It was a joke, you plum. x

iirc they were moving it to a bus museum next year...

Ginger nuts is right, if it's not in right, it'll aim them high.
