    Bad news mate. I hope you hit the beast and stuck in the pot.

    Went to Kwik Fit......

    What bolts did they shear/were they drilling? Track rod ends don't involve any bolts to drill out.

    cliosport / sheep / bothered

    Not really as they're only un-original on here. In the real world, you'll never see another like it. Before I bought my 172, I planned what I wanted it to look like which is as it does now. Not one of the mods has taken inspiration from here as I'd never even used the site before. I then...

    Gearbox bearing.

    The shafts go into the diff'. It would be easier to fit a new box to be honest as bearing and seal kits are £150+ then they need to be fitted.

    RS6 Gone now back in a Evo

    That looks excellent as is, especially minus the spoiler. What do you do for a living? A bit off topic, but you seem to be the resident Evo' expert. I'm thinking of getting one in the new year but unsure as to the exact differences between 7 & 8. People seem to refer to the 260 as a 7 in 8's...

    Does anyone know the diameter of the holes on a dog bone mount?

    The Muggings mobile is dead!!!!!

    The Guy was on here. His username was CDMullins but used to get called CDMuggins due to the state of his car.

    15" BBS RG-F's will they fit a 172?

    Worth the risk IMO. Don't you have cheap couriers over there to save on the drive?

    A bit worried

    You were right to be worried. Back to standard and start a fresh mate.

    Cambelt - genuine or not?

    A used belt won't be a mess. I've seen a 65k belt and I coulnd't tell the difference between that and my brand new, unfitted belt.

    No grip..

    Never used any of the 'highly rated' options on here as I've always felt that they are vastly over priced & over rated. I really liked my A539's so, after a number of excellent reviews, I went for the replacement Yokohama S-Drive's. They're excellent in both the wet and dry and are only...

    can drive the cup in 2 days!

    I'm not sure how a car can go from being absolutely fine in the wet (172) to being dreadful following the removal of a spare wheel and aircon along with ABS. Do those sh!t headlights stop you from spotting the muddy, wet corner approaching?

    can drive the cup in 2 days!

    Not too badly if it's standard.

    my slammed silver VTR

    People trying it on

    Diesel rep' boxes are the most common on the motorway. I drive pretty quickly so someone would have to be really hooning it for me to realise they were trying it on.

    touch up sticks from halfords

    Never used the touch up sticks but as much as I hate the sh!te that is Halfrauds, the spray was a perfect match for my iceberg. It's Mondial from memory.

    How has it handled the miles? Any major(ish) work needed doing, clutch etc?

    Clio 172 Learner Driver Decision

    Option 2 for definite. The car you described sounds very expensive IMO. 'If' I was to sell mine (64k 51 plate), I would expect no more than £3500.

    Best places to get Spotted.

    Just post pictures of your car if you want attention. Seems like a strange thing to want to do to be honest.

    Do you need a special tool for changing pads?

    The rears can be wound back using a flat blade screwdriver laid across the piston. The fronts can be pushed in by using a hammer with the head against your chest and the handle into the piston then pull the caliper back towards you.
