Parts must be a frigging nightmare to source? How did you get them over to Hong Kong mate!?

Im not so sure about this one mate. Its nice but others can be had with the belt done and alot less miles for about £500 more. If you hold out you will probaly un earth a gem. I bought mine back in March for £3800 with 44k on the clock. I had to get the belts changed though but at the time...

can anyone confirm what bulbs i need and power out put id be needing>? This HID chat is very confusing

I wouldnt mind so much if the roads were actually of a good standard (No other country pays as much road tax as us) and there roads are like f**king putting greens. Alaister Darling? I wouldnt trust a man with eye brows a different colour from his head to take control over things such as road...

Stranger things have happened? all i would say is that if the cambelt isnt done id want it for £4650

Fraid the 172's made after march 2001 are going up to £270 chaps. www.parkers.co.uk

I doubt the lack of ABS would have contributed, braking through a chicane might not have helped much Auch well at least your alright and its only cosmetic damage

Re: What will she make??? Yeah reading that back to myself it is rather optimistic. I would hope that she makes atleast 160bhp. What are you gonna do if she makes a low reading?

Hand it back and ask for your money back. As Kenny said, this car isnt suitable for purpose and your within right to hand it back.

Welcome mate. Pervert central in here, you will fit right in. Where to you hail from yourself?

Re: What will she make??? Id say about 163bhp at the wheels and maybe 170 atf? Im secretley hoping that theres been a mistake somewhere and all the Phase 1's are actually making 268bhp lol, although i very much doubt it

His inbox is full and cant accept any more PM's.... Any idea how i can get hold of this chap?

Cant see it to be honest, from one car enthusiast to another you know full well of power to weight ratios of this im convinced, yes? I didnt until today realise that the 197 was considerably heavier than the Phase 1 (ill use this as an instance seeing as i own one) But to say its faster...

Aye what is the deal with the almost impossible to reach dip stick? What is that all about exactly?

I would have thought as much! All very capable cars all the same!

Amen, almost had an accident because of this once!

Aye missus was in the motor so it was eyes front for me haha Glasgow city centre on a saturday afternoon is quality :o

Virginity, its real :o

Fraid it was matey :o Where were you? Actualy i seen a Cup parked on the same street did u see that anol? Getting spotted everywhere this weather lol

Also even if it is the same colour the elements may have shaded it diffrently over the years.

Sorry to drag it out but is the 197 faster than a 172? I didnt think about it much as there from totally different ages of hot hatches but the 197 is over 180kg's heavier than a phase 1? 25 bhp of a difference to lug an extra 180kg's about?

Air bag deploys lol

Aye there not cheap for sure, Minis hold there value across the range. Seems to be the only car that is at the moment tbh!

The missus saw you mate! She said someone flashed me, take it that was you mate>? Should really pay more attention lol

for f**k sake, just after the re-spray annol. Im like you, if there was no bad luck id have nae luck!

If it was a Mini for me it would be the GP without a doubt. 204bhp per ton, thats a quick quarter mile car

Staff car? lol

Get the M3 bought sir. 343bhp straight 6 fo' show

I take it its the Supercharged variant? Id prefer a trophy. Only thing is the Cambelt will be due over the next year so?

DUB did you own a 172/182 before the Fiesta mate?
