Glad you like the idea of a 172 replica, think it would look awesome in that colour
*Somebody post pics of foxy's car please*!!! :D
looked like a tidy car on the first pics, sort of a clowns car in the second with the random red colour, its definately different, but for all the wrong reasons
In my personal opinion i would make a 172 replica, Ive never seen one in that colour and I think it would look really nice (without...
looks like an ideal buy then from the pics, get it de-swirled and back to mint condition, get the mechanical side of things out of the way and have some cheap fun
great purchase, Im extremely jealous actually as it seems a lot of other people in this thread are,
I imagine you probably offered 1500 quid, which would be the purchase of the year!!!
I know its not nice to think but if it ever got written off I can imagine the insurance atleast paying out...
love the pics mate, been waiting for these to be uploaded since friday :)
Especially love the one of my car at the rear with the whiteline ARB in full view :rasp:
looks nice, would look miles better if the wheels were anthracite or black, anthracite is easier to keep care of than gloss black as it doesnt show the dirt up as much
LOL i had this in a toilet once off the aftershave guy, I gave him a quid just to tell me his rhymes, he gave the above and then he gave me
' no armani no punani' haha
go for the ph1
as for the - points
air con- removed will reduce weight, yes it may be a mess on but you will learn things down the line
dash board- its a track car who give a sh*t
Insulation to remove - more weight to be saved
Colour - its a track toy its what the car does not how it looks...
Re: 172 with an unknown direction
well its been quite a while since i updated this, mainly due to a lack of camera, so i pinched my mates so i could get some more 'recent' ones of it
As it stands
Shortly after purchasing the o.z f1's i started my new job, which meant More money...
its always a laugh at col/sixth form when it comes to yours and your mates cars, just take it as a laugh and do the same to them, they will soon get fed up
Yeah man, what was all that about? Was looking forward to having a bit crack on with you as We aint spoke since the days I used to have my megane coupe and you had your 1.2, i used to go to meets with dean 1.4
Clio looked good, I guess you probably wont have caught a glimpse of mine
Re: DJRoberts Ph1 172 Supercharged Fast Road/Track ****
I was trying to prioritise, even though all three are very important i decided pressure was better than temperature :D
2 in a pod on top of dash and 1 in an air vent.....meaning you still have 3 air vents
I think what you've done is pretty sensible, you bought something for a bit of fun and a run around, also with some things you could tidy up to make it look better, hence lowering and spacers
I love the fact you have a real V6 in the garage as well
The fact people havent grasped yet is he...
I will take the cleanest faster silver ph1 then :D
This is my first outing with you lot in the clio so dont pick on it too much :-) it will be dirty off my ventures to work in newcastle
Geddes- I will probably get there around 6.30-6.45 so grab a couple of pics before it gets dark :)
well just to report back, its nice and dry out now so I took the car down my favourite back road
To me it felt as if i didnt need to put as much effort in to keep everything running smoothly through the corners, the back end feels so much more planted than before, it actually feels like a...
