Can't beleive it!!
The last two i've sold, I always say to myself ''time to move on dan, get something else'' But each time I end up with another 172!!
Next weekend i'm supposed to collecting a Williams aswell, I must be a right glutton for punishment....
Still excited though, even though...
I just got rid ouf about £2k's worth of seperates from my living room. (used to be quite into my music)
I now want just a small (ish!) Mini hifi type thing that I can plug my i-pod into, I can plug my Laptop into and that can play Radio and CD's.
Anyone know what to recomend? Budget of sub...
Looks quite a good buy? Possibly a little dear, but looks very well done.
Bit unsure on the Grey/blue theme though...

Seems quite cheap, I can get it for £599 delivered...

And the one i'm looking at will be black.
Morning all.
Looks like i've found myself a Williams At last. Its a 1996N Willy3.
I want to relace both back wings/Arches. Anybody know if i need to go genuine or can i use pattern parts? How far into the sill do they go? Ideally I want them to go 5/6/7 inches into the sill as there is...
I want a Ph-1 though as i just prefer them for some reason. (I will put mk2 18's on it though)
What are the chances of me finding an 02 plate onwards the right side of 10k? With under 30,000 miles?
And why is the market flooded with CAT C/D cars?!
Anyone know anything about this conversion?
Is it reliable?

Looks like quite a good toy but Prima racing hardly have the best reputation...
And 17's on a track car?!
I just had to have a new wheel fitted due to a manufacturing fault.
The Car came with et35 offset wheels when i bought it. When i ordered a new wheel, they no longer made it and so i had to buy from another company that only offered an offset of et30. So now i have three wheels et35, one...
Bear with me on this one....
Currently I have a 197 (company car, which goes back thursday)
A ph-1 172 which is my track car (I never have the time for it anymore)
A pug 306 hdi as my Mrs' runner.
Now, i'm leaviing my job tomorrow, so the company car will be lost. We need a newer/up to date...
I've got a machine polisher that I use on my cars, and 9/10 the car aways comes up ace.
BUT!
I've just taken a Chrysler Neon in part ex and its in a right state, i've been Machine polishing it for what seems like an eternity, with G3, but its not even touching the swirls/fadedness etc...
The car is a 2006/06 pre-improved-gearbox 197.
Filled the tank right to the top from empty on xmas eve. £56 @ £1.04 per litre. (regular unleaded)
On way home this evening, the light came back on and the trip counter was reading 282 miles. (motorway driving, about 80 ish mph)
Now from my...
I've been using Autoglym car conditioning shampoo.... CRAP.
TurtleWax super dooper stuff...... CRAP
And today i bought some stuff from Halfrauds that the guy recomended and....... CRAP!
They are soapy for the first 5 minutes, then its like washing your with a bucket of water!
Any...
Afternoon all.
I have a digital camera (samsung S850) and today i took 8/9 pics and foolishly forgot to put the memory card in. :rolleyes:
The pictures are now stored on the camera, but i need them on the memory card so that I can plug the card into my laptop and transfer the pics.
I...
My track car needs;
-H&R's fitting and setting up
-Two punctures on my road tyres need fixing
-Fit the 888's to the track wheels
-New discs and pads on the rear (old pad 'fell out' !)
-Needs a new headlight
-Front bumper needs painting
-Needs a new clutch pedal ratchet
-Needs all the Graphics...
Been reading all these threads this morning about people having to spend £000's on their cars as they keep breaking down or falling apart.
Now i've been driving just over 10 years and on average change my car every 6 months. I've had everything from a 180,000 mile Cavalier to a Mitsubishi Evo...
Don't know wether this is the right section, but its the best i could think of :)
I need to buy a trailer, preferably sub £500 to carry my 172 securely. (ie strapped down)
It needs to be braked, have the facility for electrics (lights etc) and it would be even better if it was able to carry...
FAO Edde, Fred, Ted, shed etc etc
will my Shock absorbers and springs off my 2000-W plate 172 fit onto a 1.28v of the same year?
Many thanks in advance :)
I need a cheap replacement for my track car, Cat Back and cheap.
This is actually cheaper than the renault system.

But I don't want it...
I need them fitted and set up for track use.
Preferably within 50 miles of Bristol.
And ideally I want to use someone that has experience of doing this properly...
thanking you muchly :)
Before you all assume i'm loaded, i'm not! lol
Its a company car, and after 3 months, we have to sell them on.
Anyway, onto my point...
I've had company cars for the best part of 4 years, change them every 3 months, so you can imagine how many cars i've had! Always glad to get rid of one...
Due to me being a bit of a loser, i'm struggling to fit my MSV half cage in my 172. I've only got another hour and 40 minutes till my mrs gets in and will want me to do family stuff!! so i need to do it asap!
Anyone got any pics? Up close and personal so to speak??
Cheers chaps!!
Don't think its a reeeeeeeeeeeeepost, but Meh.
