Then buy these and have the lip polished?

To be fair, unless you've tried to do it recently, insuring a car for a 17/18 y/o is beyond a joke now. Even on a 100£ mini metro or something it'd be over £1.5k.

We have no proof of this...:rasp:

You need a new speedo sensor, about 25£ and easy to change :)

That's the problem, there is no fuse on the 1.2's that came without fogs. So factory fitting would mean running two wires to the fuse box yourself, putting connecotrs on the end, bodging into the fuse box and sticking a fuse in.

One option would be to buy normal Team Dynamics 1.2 and then have a silver lip polished onto them and get N2Grafix to make you up the lettering around the edge?? Edit: Is this not them? http://www.madmotors.co.uk/catalog/team-dynamics-black-tyres-p-21267.html

Superb work both of you. Jord, if you were my neighbour I think I'd spend all day (and all my money) messing with cars with you. Good skills.

Welcome mate, I'm sure some of the haggis lot will be along shortly to offer their opinions.

LOL! Bloody emo's ;) Car looks really nice, really like the wheels actually, colour scheme works well :)

You doing it all at work?? Or if not want a hand with anything? I've busted my wrist so I'm not that much good though... lol!

Oh and I've got my camera sorted now so if you're about to get it done one eveing, we can get some evening car park shots too (not a particually good camera, but I have a mini tripod and it makes for a better evening photo due to no shake with longer shutter times)

Sorry chubs :o Cheers mate, talk to you then.

Do I get a hug if I say yes?

I'm confused, why are you buying mike a beer? And not me? Even pads mate??? If not I'll pick some of those up tmrw or something. Once we're done with fitting, I'll buy you that bud down my local. ;) You're a diamond.

Tell me more, in text, tmrw. I'll buy the pads and we'll ;) ;) get it done yeah? :D Only thing I haven't got is a socket big enough for the hub nut...

Re: The PH1 172 Aprreciation Thread. DannyR has two dead ones aswell doesn't he?

Cheers Daniel, I'll check it soon, its definately one of them, as I've had one go before and it sounds exactly the same. S'alright dude, just what happens when you buy second hand motors I guess. I spent thousands on that 1.2 before it worked beautifully, I just hope the same can't be said...

Save me one Bri Bri. ;)

I haven't checked it Mike, but the rear brakes looked shagged anyways, I'm 99% sure its a wheel bearing as its there when I turn engine off or clutch down etc and I can hear it coming from the back. How do I go about checking it??

Sad to see it go indeed, but glad you managed to find someone to buy it and its staying in the club :) Such a lie, the motors you've been looking at are more than a trophy would be anyways :rasp:
