    Just drove my first 1.2

    freds old 1.2 against a 1.6 focus and you say the focus would win, doubt it lol im sure i remember the story from when i first joined about fred passing 172's on track in the 1.2. the standard focus handles really well for what it is to be honest but its no match for a coilovered clio, what...

    What should I do first??

    standard 15s with eagle F1s, colour coded, lowered 80mm on coilovers (60mm apex kit if you cant afford them) B&M quick shift will look good and be seriously fun to drive!

    do 172 fogs fit a 1.2 16v?

    what coilovers

    think the Konigsports are what i want then, as i fancy bein able to adjust the damping because i like the ride pretty solid dont really care about ride quality lol# ive noticed on a lot of coilover kits only the fronts are ride height adjustable is this the same with the konigsports?

    Eviljohns 172

    both look cool although not a fan of the wheels id get a set of 15" dynamique wheels for it (think thats what hes lookin for anyway) 15s are the way forward surprised no ones slated you for saying the wee 1.4 handles better than the 172 like i got when i said mine handled better than a 172

    Removing '172 cup' badges.....SAFELY

    boil the kettle and pour it over the badges then just pull them off, might need to give the paint a little polish to remove excess glue but usually it doesnt leave any.
