I thought it looked new actually was going to ask you. Thanks for forwarding the log book. I'm more of a fan of the stealth on the ph1, if it was ph2 i'd go for recessed but I don't personally think the ph1 suits a recessed exhaust. Can't get there mate. Insurance doesn't start untill...

I'd be interested in this too.

Fair enough but if theres demand for insuring modded cars there will be supply. Companies like flux will still do mods. At the end of the day saying no under 25's having modded cars will just lead to more cars without valid insurance on the road. This country has the worst policies ever...

Could well be the speedo sensor. The speedo sensor controls the speedo (obviously) but also can lock the doors because of the auto locking doors.

Milltek imo. Sounds awsome. Now reply in my exhaust thread and help me please. Wish I had a 182 because I'd have a Milltek system on no questions asked.

I've got 70K so i'm in the middle. Nothing special.

Sell it privately. Put it up on here, piston heads etc. Not worth losing money for nothing.

I'm going to be ordering an exhaust system for the 172 within the next week. It needs to go on for insurance purposes because I needed some mods to go on a cheaper modified policy. I've decided on a K-tec Stealth. Should I go supersport with cat or sports with decat? Opinions appreciated.

Get a realy late 04 plate 172. Its not really worth the hastle or costs fitting a 172 exhaust and bumper.

I'd sell it as it Jamie. Its a realy nice car, if I was 17 again i'd realy like it. With regards to insurance i've got it at 19 on a modded 172, ok it is only ph2 lights and exhaust but I can add more with no increase in premium. Thats with flux. Members like f0xy have had 1.2's with cage's...

Flux where good with me. It's £25 to add mods but just do a few at a time.

My ph1 had them done at 39K and will have them done at around 71K next month.

If a car hasn't had belts done i'd be worried. Says a lot about the previous owners realy. Super tidy car though, but it is almost 182 money.

If your prepared to maintain it properly it should be reliable. Its worth noting that belt changes etc on the 1*2's are expensive and cannot be neglected.

Costco do cheap PE2's Fred. I'm not sure on prices for 205/45/16's but 195/50/15's are £230 fitted inc nitrogen inflating.

Could be engine mounts. Although people say its usually more of a knocking sound than rubbing.

OZ F1 Cups?

Money can't buy sence.....

I'd just replace the exhaust with a stealth exhaust. The wheels are quite nice, if only the where 16's.

Nice. A Ktec recessed exhaust would look good.

I will do when I get my hands on a multimeter. I'm also going to check I have the right bulbs in lol I'm not overly bothered about a rear fog light anyway, never used it in 2 years of driving so I wont miss it. Thanks for the advice though jord.

Think i'm going to go for a standard stealth then add a decat later if i'm not happy with the sound from the stealth on its own. Decats sell like hot cakes so if your not happy then they're easy to sell on.

I'm going to get my 11 year old brother to help me with mine. Small hands ftw. Although I need to get a decat 1st.

Unlucky mate. Hope its sorted soon.

I've swapped the fog and rear light wires over and now the rear lights work. The rear fogs however do not. My thinking is it has 12 months MOT so i'll just run without a rear fog untill then and then rewire the ph1 lights up for its MOT if I haven't found a fix by then. I've had it less...

Coming soon. I'm only insured from the 30th and its filthy, I can't drive it round to my nans to clean it :( I'll get some up tomorrow though, then some more when its clean :D

All wired up and working. Except the rear lights. Indicators, reverse, break and fog lights all work but no rear lights any ideas?

Thank you very much lads. I'll report back when i've done it.

I'm putting some ph2 rear light on my ph1. I've read the wiring diagram thats fine. My question is how do you get the wires out of the plastic block, do you just have to pull realy hard or is there a method. I don't want to break the pins etc. I've done a search but couldn't find an answer...

Rapid barge. Love it.
