56k isnt low mileage, thats all im trying to say... after a few years you'll be in the same position as you're in now.
it also looks like there's a scrape on the bumper on the car you're looking at, although it could just be dirt
no, its not great.
you'll find better cars. My car is a Y plate, and has done 5k more miles, so better mileage for its age.
you say you want to change because your car is getting on a bit, well so is a 51 reg car... its 6 years old!
get a later Ph2 172 (03 onwards) as these had cruise control whereas the earlier ones didnt.
i wouldnt bother with that 51 reg car, it could only be 1 month newer than my Ph1 172 lol
my tracking didnt change after fitting mine, i had it checked. The Eibachs only lower the car 30mm max, so its not a drastic amount.
Silverfox, come down to bournemouth and i'll fit them for £30 :)
mine does this... and i know why.
its the springs moving slightly in their holders on the shock. Mine have only done it since fitting the sportline springs. No real problem, just gets a wee bit annoying.
they are et43 offset iirc, and are designed for the 182's wider track.
they are probably rubbing on your suspension or something else in there. Some 5mm spacers should cure it, but you need to know what its rubbing on first. Jack the car up and see.
yeah sounds identical to my problem justin...
ive replaced the whole suspension (including whole strut top mount kits), i may try the washers too, only cost a tenner after all :)
