oz f1's as fitted standard on the mark 2 phase 1 172

bought brand new unregistered in June 04, just me, so at least I know its well run in.

spykee, danny1 and matta_88 you have PM timsclio172, clear your pm's!!! lol

righty.... bootmats arent here yet, they'll send the bootmats out when they arrive, but the floor mats will be sent out in the meantime, boot mats to follow. 4 peoples mats have been made but won't be sent as the payment has not been received, these 4 people being: spykee, timsclio172...

righty, update.... Justmatz received our mats today, I presume the bank holiday meant they got them today rather than last Friday, but that's not important. Justmatz are matching the orders against our names, and will have them sent out on Thursday, everyone should have theirs by Monday /...

Lol how can you say that?! I think being in the car with Dave and his heavy right foot would be scary, as Ally will confirm all my overtakes were all perfectly safe, straight lines are sooooooooo dull.... oh yeah, I don't take a racing line in blind bends like some people ;)

hmmm i used to do 330 miles twice a week in 4 hours, 4.5 hours max, that wasnt even motorways lol

dont do what I did at Kirroughtree, my bumper is nicely scraped underneath, thankyou stone. looks good

consider the same wheels in 16" a la mk2 172, Alan had them on his Dynamique. New Megane wheels are basically the same but with a hollow down each spoke, looks alright I reckon. I'm going to be a nasty nasty person and say get a 3dr before you do any mods, modded 5 dr cars looks so wrong imo...

lol nice overtaking pic

no your not likely to wreck the suspension unless you physically hit things. Shockers burst quite easily though. Things that used to go more regularly in my 205gti due to being addicted to 'twisties' (not the website...) were drop link bushes popping out all the time and wheel bearings going.

bumper and wheels will make all the difference, the 17s look ridiculous imo

Rob, You could drive it in 5 or 6 hours I'm sure

Alan warm like Rory the horses s**t... Alan Muzz and Mark, come along in October or so for the next trip, you can do blue routes or the red at your own pace. Rob, long journey, enjoy your sleep. I'm going biking again tomorrow lol

looks good in anthracite, a bit LCR???

Pics thread Just home from a weekends mountain biking in Dumfries-shire, Ally, Clio_Rob, Dave3141 and MrsDave3141 (who still exists...) were staying in a nice log cabin / chalet near Dalbeattie which had views out over the Solway Firth. Arrived Friday 4pm unpacked the cars etc. Saturday...

oh and anyone other than Renault able to supply / code keys?

My mums dynamique only came with one key (good price nearly new), whats involved in getting a spare key made up? How much does it cost? Ta, Rory

there's a few of us roofracked up at the mo lol

number plate R777 ALY?

Well got the new front pads on today, renault OEM pads, the originals were on for 25k miles and I was told at the 24k mile service they were 70% worn... fell apart when taking them out, had to be hammered out the caliper lol wow my brakes feel amazing now, cant wait till they've bedded in...

The mats will be sent from Germany the middle of next week to be with Justmatz by a week tomorrow, they will then be checked for the correct details and for quality control. and they'll be sent out to us on the Monday (Monday 24th April).

they didnt get back to me, just emailed asking for an update. Should get a response tonight

"If you want a quick one, regularly thrash it, hard, over long distances." Agreed, mines well run in - used to sit on A roads for 700 miles a week averaging 65-75mph, for first 18k miles of its life.

Spotted a Scottish registered 52 plate cup at the Allander sports centre tonight, I was walking to the gym and you got there as I did and left as I was walking home too. Anyone here?

Great cars, but still only FWD

if you want a nippy car for trackdays only then buy a 2 seater, wtf's with people, the only problem is the moaners who don't seem to enjoy driving. why buy a 2.0 hatch if you potter about the roads?! Trackdays yes, great fun but so are proper A and B roads, maybe I'm spoilt because I live near...

lol we were playing guitar heroes at my mates on sat night, great laugh, really good covers too. I totally dont rock though.

I swapped from a 1.6gti, handling isnt as good due to the heavier lump up front but carrys so much more speed, still great fun, just doesnt have that same feel imo, my gti didnt have power steering, I think power steering robs a lot of feedback and feeling. you'll love it though, much much...

nothing in it on the road really CTR / 172 / 182 / S3 A coupe turbo is fast when its dry, spins up easily in the wet though.
