Just got in from a tip out with the kids, coming round a medium sized round about the rear let go, I wasnt nailin it cos of the kids.
It was wet, and I had just come off the power due to volvo man infront slowing for the exit. Its a standard 172 with 195 45 16s - which have done 400 miles. Was...
I had a front off in a Honda CRV I had a few years back.
The Bastids nicked the back, as it transpires they nicked a front from a civic from a bloke up the road a week before.
Well if it were a Saxo, and he had anything bigger than size 9 feet, hed have been behind the GSi!
I part exd my Saxo for my 172, Ive got Size 10s, and with me Cat boots on I couldnt drive the bugger - Mind you it was only a 1.1 Forte lol.

My new 172 has condensation in the N/S headlamp unit - I though it would go away, but its still there a week later on - I will be bouncing mine back to Renault Manchester - Let me know how u get on with the headlamp bit.
My glove box is OK, but to be honest feels like it was made from...
My new 172 was 600/year with protected no claims - Direct Line.
I still think this is abit salty, as I have over 10years no claims, and I am 34 (Today as it happens). Plus I am a dead good driver lol.
Well I have had mine for just over a week, and so far I have spent.
35 quid in petrol.
Though I must admit, a powerflow zorst keeps creaping into my dreams! Oh and I bought a Disclock steering wheel lock from Costco for 46 quid - Up yours Halfords 79.99
