It looks like a good start, but mk1's look so much better seriously low. For a simple improvement, try to get some wider wheels, will help a lot.

Impressive, but he should seriously consider quitting whilst he's ahead (he hasn't killed anyone yet)

Welcome to the club mate. I'll be sorting out a meet very soon so get yourself along. :)

I think my mum would go mental if I tried to put that lift on the drive...

Check the balljoint, but not the joint itself, the two bolts that join it to lower arm, mine managed to work loose, and caused a knock upon acceleration which eventually got worse. Oh and it's not just Daniel, I've never seen that under your SN before.

What I miss?

On Wednesday morning, halfway between Calais and Lille, gave me a flash of the hazards and a wave. (CS really is everywhere)

Jeebus, is it wrong that I think it's pretty cool?

Hello mate and welcome to the club. I had a mk2 ph1 non sport before getting my 172, here's a few pics of what I did to it and a rough list: Shoter aerial Sport interior (seats and door cards) Ph2 rear lights Dual optic front lights Fog lights fitted Ph2 rear bumper Ph2 "dyanmique" spoiler...

Awesome work. Looks like the interior could do with some loving though? Especially the carpet, or is that just the lighting?

I like that! Shame you're so far away from the cool people ;) Welcome to the club.

Quiet is lovely, trust me, I've done 950 miles in a LOUD clio, and just got back from 715 miles in a pretty quiet one, is bloody lovely. Induction noise is way better than exhaust drone, and can be only upon demand! Oh and Rollo, classy ;)

I don't know if the non sport ones fit, but they should as the bumpers are such a similar shape. If not I'm sure you could make them fit with a knife and some patience. If you don't fit them, the bumper is tres wobbly.

Re: No Compromise ph1 ITB build (Fastcar, BTM, TDF, RS Fab) - ITB update p77 You're nuts mate, just don't sell too much and regret it. Oh an get some pics sorted ;-)

Not to mention it's much easier getting the walking stick out first when you can open the door all the way ;-)

Danny, any chance you could do the face of my alpine headunit too? If so I'd definately be interested, as the HU is currently orange too...

Greeeebo

Re: Trophy #433 Seriously awesome seats Dave! Gentlemens choice. As said, give me a shout when you want to start ripping it apart, I'll definately swing by, I'll even dispose of parts for you ;-) (in exchange for some silver)

We'll probably have a gander around the cars at some point, have a drink, chat, whatever really. Meets like this are quite social and chilled out, other day time meets are a lot more about looking at the cars, going for a drive, whatever.

Course not mate, the more the merrier, just get involved and don't be shy :) Oh and don't drive like a hero and bin it on the way home.

Ah, one of "those" is he?

Jeebus, you seem to have no luck, hopefully it doesn't cost you too much to put right.

Tonbridge to North London in a 172bhp tin can? You'll be home in 10 minutes, quit your whining! ;)

7:30's too late? What are you, 90? Get 'yo ass down here! (I still am yet to see your mk1). Ok, so far we have.... 1. Sash 2. TEG 3. danny172 (I'm assuming he's coming as he lives with the above 2) 4. Rob (That's me) 5. Smitchell1 6. WILLIE 7. lrj (Always room for a newbie) :) 8. Scary...

Glued indeed. When buying a new gear knob, make sure you get a lift up reverse compatiable knob and you'll be fine.

Like a humming, Will. Which increases with speed. You can easily tell its not the exhaust by disengaging the clutch and seeing if its still there. Also, swerving from side to side a bit indicates which side is fecked.

I'm a mebbe at the moment, should be in though.

That gives you an hour to get ready? Tart!

Superb work, wheel refurb next :)

Russ, photocopy me those please and pass them on ;)
