Not updated this for a while..
A while back I got shut of the pro race 1.2s and replaced them with Speedline Turinis which I liked but after a while got bored and wanted 15" wheels again for cheaper tyres and to make it a bit different to standard cups

Hi all not had the car too long but I've been away on holiday for 5 days and the cars been un used I've come to it this afternoon and on start up was a little bit hesitant to start but still did fire up first time just not as smoothly as normal oil ok light lit up so thought nothing of it but ...
Hi all just to update the thread got some pics from weekend, took the car to the RR day at EFI Parts in Runcorn and it ran a respectable 169.8bhp but the torque figure seems pretty low, and it's got a flat spot mid range? Any one know why this could be ? He said the car is still pulling right to...
Ahh right, well I've just looked over the car today and looked underneath, the bottom of the gearbox has quite a bit of oil but no real signs of a leak from the engine ?
Left me a bit clueless has this one ? Think I'm gunna drain the excess oil out and then keep my eye on it, also...

Any ideas ?
Hi folks been roughly a year now since my 172 had engine troubles and had to get shut, but the bugs never left and I've had to buy another!
I had a 172 sport last and decided I wanted a cup and managed to find this iceberg cup what I'm told are rare so hopefully won't loose any money on her...
To be honest I know this is my opinion but the photoshops look hurrendous, if i was to mod that car I would put a set of OEM sport alloys or OZ F1 on it if your budget allows, wolf race katanas are a tacky wheel and I'd stay away from the racing stripes and rally mudflaps
Lowered on a set of...
My old 172 got to 98k but had to get rid due to poor work by mechanic who did the timing service
Current mileage on my daily driver Bora 1.9 tdi its a pd115 which is mapped with a Decat running about 150-160hp
Only using it whilst I save for a good ph1 172 :)
Been asked that before it's a black plastic slam panel pic was took at a petrol station with red lights showing up onto car
