    DCi 100 - now with xenons

    yeah it goes well, 130bhp isnt much but when it boosts and gives you 190lb/ft coming in from 1300rpm in 4th gear it shifts not to bad!!

    638miles from 1 tank! ..... (dci content)

    dont get me wrong if i was going for a blast the 172 would be my car of choice but the thing about the dci is you still have genuine overtaking power and useable power from 30mph in 5th gear with no fuss like you have with the 172 when you need to use the full rev range (which is the attraction...

    DCi 100 - now with xenons

    if you look closely it has a VERY subtle smaller plate that fits the recess and doesnt overhang the bumper like they do as standard. if i can get an rs kit in pearl black ill go for it but not that fussed, it was supposed to be a runabout but its my only car now hence why its been getting some...

    thats what i done then sold my 190bhp 172 and remaped the dci, granted its no where near as fast straight line but still massively capable and mega fun to drive with the sportlines on it, dont regret selling the 172!

    dci remap

    mint i love my mapped 100, the 4th gear pull mid range is awesome! i found at 30mph in 5th gear as standard it was borderline undrivable always used 4th as it wasnt smooth at all, now its fine and you can easily overtake in 5th gear.

    rubber seal on the ariel base i bet, seems to happen on the cars with the larger ariel base, dont know if they changed them after a certain age etc but my 53 plate has the larger one and none of my others did (51,02,03 plates) and the rubber seal is all fucked on it
