Why does that not suprise me?

Crikey, those really do look good. :cool: If I can get a set I think thats whatll go on if I end up with a MK2 172.

To be more precise, exhausts! Daz - the mods you have on your car are not to my taste, but its been done very well and looks really clean, but that is just holes hacked in bumpers with paint cans attached wedged in them. If you do something like that to a car, then expect ridicule! They would...

Dear oh dear oh dear oh dear oh dear :confused::confused::confused: exhuastsuk.com is Ascar in Sheffield, but Ive never seen that...erm....beauty around town. Oh dear again. Making up for deficiencies elsewhere maybe?!

The repair on the bonnet is superb. Im the only person who can find where the scratch was, but the boot needs a respray. Too much damage to repair. Ive done an okay job on one of the boot scratches, but it needs to be perfect like the bonnet. Vengence will be mine :devilish: I am seriously...

Confused :confused:. Sounds like you are saying the car had been moved!

If the car has moved from where you parked it and the scratches go through to the metal, Id say it looks like someone has crashed into your parked car. w**kers.

33 front and 31 rear with 195/50/15s, but thats just personal preference after trying different combinations.

Thought you had sold your 172, Viceroy?

Not bad, but got to go really!

My bonnet repair above didnt use any paint and the scratch was just on the clear coat layer. Im doing the boot now with paint from the Halfords chip repair kit range. Its a perfect match for the monaco blue, but I think the scratches on the back are beyond chip repair kit rescue. Still, worth a...

Lovely apart from the aeroplane wing that seems to have got stuck to it :confused:

You collecting them now, Jon? Want a 3 to add to the collection... heheh

Funny how opinions vary. Ive got P6000s on the Williams and they are just fine. I like them. Some people like the ContiSports and others (me!) hate the b******s! Same with the F1s.

Okay, picture by flash....still not polished the repaired area but its difficult to see where the scratch was. Side by side again for comparison: http://erc.qmuc.ac.uk/cliosport/file.php?image=1051978272__bonnet_01.jpghttp://erc.qmuc.ac.uk/cliosport/file.php?image=1051978272__bonnet_01.jpg...

Yes, will do stonechips. Got a couple myself which are now next in line. Going to have perfect bodywork by the time Im done! Just got the rest of the scratch out. Cant see it at all now :D. About to start on the boot.... Edit: Just washed the bonnet with washnwax stuff and it is 100%...

Abolutely simple. You need a power drill (I used a cordless electric drill/screwdriver) to do the polishing and a video recorder to watch a 10 minute training video. Took about an hour to get the bonnet done as above. Just going to go over it one more time to finish it off. The scratch is about...

There is actually a bit more to do as if youre looking for the scratch you will still see it, but I would recommend that kit to anyone. Done a fantastic job. The back will be more tricky, but the video that came with the kit reckons it is up to the job, so Ill give it a try. Need to get some...

Bonnet before: http://erc.qmuc.ac.uk/cliosport/file.php?image=1051978272__bonnet_01.jpg Bonnet after: http://erc.qmuc.ac.uk/cliosport/file.php?image=1051978313__bonnet_magic.jpg Well, Im impressed! £20 from Halfords and worth every penny

Why dont they just spray the 172 in a different range of colours. Surely a cup with ABS and aircon is just a 172 MK2. Doh!

Just the MK2. The MK1s have a cable.

Yes, say youre doing 0-100mph, every 10mph the AP22 will update what it says on the screen. Get a passenger to keep an eye on speedo and ap22 and when the ap22 flicks to 100mph, quickly look over at the speedo needle and see where it is.

What do your speedos say when the AP22 updates to 100mph? Mine reads about 108 mph using my AP22! It seems to be 8% out the whole way through the range.

lol, yeah, it takes two AA batteries. Just use a coin on the side to open it!

KDF - MK1 or MK2 172, out of interest?

James - AP22 on standby. Ill PM you my mobile number... Rhys

I dont get close to this with my Williams using my AP22. Can someone give me the settings you are using? Cheers, Rhys

LMFAO. Thats a wicked idea! Thanks!!!!!

Rajk - Just want to say out that Im not having a go at all Asians and I dont want the incident to be mis-perceived as anything to do with race at all. I just happened to be in an Asian area of the city and this happened with a bunch of Asian lads. Can get just the same thing happen in...
