my old 100..

saw a few of the mk2s running these, anyone running them on mk3s?

where is the CS detectives find her on FB

the engines are bullet proff, as long as the belts are done they wont give you any bother. alternators, starters and all other things are pretty reliable too rarely hear of them going, heard of a few PAS pumps going but they are an easy fix. gearboxes have a strange reputation of being soft...

yep 1.5 k9k dci, standard a 1.6 16v has legs on it from 0-30mph, after that its even until 80mph then the 100 starts to pull a bit. remapped its a different story! plus they are twice as good to drive than the other non RS sports inc dci65/80

looks w**k, ph1 ftmfw!!

its not the head gasket ill put £1000 on it. its condensation, take it a hard blast and it will be fine! get it up past 5k

i *might* cut my baby loose for this! if i dont bring it though ill deffo be there in the dci106

dynamique DCi 80 or if you can find one in your budget a Dynamique DCi 100 plenty about with climate and xenons. 1.6 16v's are ok, but they are s**t on fuel! we struggle to get high 30mpgs out our one and my mrs drives like miss daisy! she was getting mid 60s in the dci 100

gearbox issues are blown out the water, nothing wrong with them. if you drive like a spazzy it will probably break quicker than some other cars will, ive done 100k hard miles in 172s and never had a gearbox issue, infact never had an issue with the cars full stop.

id go 172 too but if insurance is an issue then dci80/100

was it fucked? seems a decent price?

ive had my sportlines on 3 cars! dci100... 1.6 16v... 172...

its done over 80k :)

good idea that, my old mapped 100 used to make bitches squirt

it can be done quite cheap all you need is the Alternator and alternator bracket from a 172 cup along with the 172 cup aux belt. wests sell a kit with everything needed, all brand new genuine renault too...

i considered it on my ph1 but decided against it, i do like it in the summer though, it is my sumer car afteral!

its one of they things, it might snap, it might not!, chances are it probably wont, however theres no way of telling! id probably tow it there as a precaution and ask them to push it into the workshop lol

car sounds cheap does it have any issues? avoid the 17s go for some factory 15s or 172 16s

need a good clean looks like someones pissed on them

i had an HKS pannel filter on my 1.2 16v ;)

screw how long the shocks last, its the spring coming out and getting wedged between the wheel and arch and wripping the tyre to shreds id be worried about or more so it coming out and getting wedged in the poor bugger behind you's intercooler or radiator

R.I.P lol

you lot are bonkers, i dont want to point out the obvious but whats going to happen to the rear springs when you go over a small hump on the road? or am i missing something?

what ever is cheapest, if your going to waste ur money, waste as little as possible

wtf can no one get insured on 172s on this place? i pay £500 a year @ 21 fully comp on my ph1 and have had a 172 since 17

ebc greenstuff are ok if the standard pads already fill your needs but you want hardly any dust, i run them all round on my runabouts to save my wheels. would never use them for proper driving though, tried that on my old ph2 and nearly died a few times

bought my ph2 172 at 17, now got my ph1 at 22

standard airbox on both, ph2 is running itg pannel the ph1 running a ph1 box with pipercross race pannel ph2 running a 182 manifold too

could possibly be the UCH but other things to try would be the battery or earth point
