oh and on that short drive that was a 100% sucess rate on the saxo front..
4 saxos ... all of them with their fogs on ?
One guy in some people carrier, going along a busy high street.. FULL BEAM + Fogs..
he got the universal w**ker sign from me..
Wow..
2 new 172 drivers .. welcome to cliosport mate... I can imagine what the wait was like heh, totally worth it though.
Moving from a saxo vtr to a 172 is probably the best move your going to make in your life ;) just remember not to bring any of the saxo drivers traits with you (eg...
damn that looks well tidy.. looks factory.
I think I will purchase one of them, will have to get it sprayed silver now to match the car cause that looks brill..
Kiss my @ss..

LOL..
I must try this press the trip button on start up.. Think I will drive out to the middle of nowhere with my girlfriend and press it on starting up.. hehe.. should be good to scare the sh*t out of her for half an hour or so..
FOG LIGHTS ARE ONLY TO BE USED WHEN VISIBILITY IS REDUCED TO LESS THAN 100 YARDS !!

Excellent news..

Welcome to Cliosport btw.. Your gonna love your new car, the engine just comes alive at 4500rpm right up to the limiter..
When you do join the club make sure to get some pics of it up in the members section.

Failing to stop after accident resulting in damage to attended vehicle or property
and dont forget dangerous driving, failing to signal.. etc.
Ye the clios have a long anit-corosion warranty.. but is only covered if it corodes from the inside out.. not from the outside in.. or somthing stupid like that. but It sounds like you will be covered..
Thx,
I didnt really think a silver car could look really shiny.. I can only imagine what a black car would look like with all three stages applied.
As an avid Autoglym user I can deffinatly say Meguirs is much better, Infact I gave my autoglym stuff to my mum told her I didnt need it anymore.
Ye when I took those pics it wasnt really that sunny.. the pics really dont do it justice though, as when you move around the car the relfection change and gives you a real depth look to the shine. :D
Stage 1 was a nightmare for me though.. hard to put on, harder to take off. I probably left...
looks like the guy either didnt use plastic primer for the bump strips or didnt key/clean the plastic properly.
The paint runs are a very amaturish thing to see, the guy was clearly a novice/imbicil..there should never be too much paint on one coat to cause runs.
Ye you wont be disapointed but you will have a sore right arm, it total to do step 1 - 3 (step 1-2 it was just myself doing it) took about 9 hours.. including washing the car 3 times.. (dont ask) and cleaning the alloys and tyres etc.
just gonna try and get those pics across now from my camera..
I do.. I took some after.. wasnt very sunny but I will post them up tommorow..
I was impressed with it.. the car has a wet look to it now, put it this way my silver 172 now looks very shiney..if you were to do it to a black car it would be like a mirror.
Face,
Just to let you know, I finally got round to finished my car today with the meguirs stuff.
Looks really wet and shiney now.. feels like glass to touch it so smooth.
The carnuba wax goes on really easy and is even easier to take off.. chuffed cause my car looks really shiney now, oh...
had my 2002 mk2 172 for over 6 months now..
Had the aircon fixed under warranty (leaked the gas, 2 pipes replaced)
Bit of paint peeled under a wheel arch fixed under warranty
Knocking noise under hard acceleration, dealer couldnt fix (fixed it myself by fitting 2 toyo proxes to the front)...
2002 172 and I have a change light... it is a bit out of the way . but you can still see it if you looking straight ahead.
In first gear it comes to quick to change when you see it you got to guess really, but 2nd 3rd etc. if you change on the light IMO you get the fastest acceleration.
