Nope not me. No tints and I haven't been down there in the 172 anyway. There was a Monaco 172 for sale around there a while ago so maybe it was bought by a local.

I paid £70 and JMS Tuning for uprated mount bushes and fitting. Massive difference, not had a single crunch. My reverse and 3rd were always causing problems, once bushed replaces, changes are much smoother and engages really easily into reverse and 1st at slow speeds too.

Cheers guys. Reviews on here and elsewhere seem very good for both, so I can't justify the extra £200 if it won't make a massive difference. Sigma it is! :) Cheers for all input! Much appreciated everyone!

Lower engine mount maybe? Usually has issues with 3rd as well if it is.

Option 1. Option 2 will only output PS3 sound into the TV at 2 channels so after that, the new surround sound is useless. Optical from PS3 to surround amp will allow you to do 5.1.

Not APO and not AF-S unfortunately. Me? I didn't make an offer. Oh I see, so VR would only help with say still shots of animals etc at long zoom? I'll probably be doing more panning than anything else so, VR doesn't seem justified for the odd few shots, so it seems its the Sigma for me!

Not compatible with Nikon D40/D40x/D60. Had me all excited then! :(

£100! Shame I only bought my camera recently, and the route to DSLR was a last minute choice. The VR works impressively, I have the 18-55mm VR and you can notice the difference. But unsure if it will help much when panning. I'd assume Nikon glass is better, but £200 better? As much as it is...

Sigma 70-300mm APO - £180-ish Nikon 70-300mm VR - £390-ish A massive difference between these to justify the price difference? I'm using a Nikon D60, am just getting into photography, need it majorly for F1 next month and want to go to other motoring/racing events but also want to try some...

Check out couzen's clio, that's a mint ph1.

Is this a spot the difference?

Loving that colour scheme!

Look forward to that as I might consider a silences decat if its not too much louder.

Apparently they get quieter after a few thousand miles iirc. Something to do with the silencing stuff in the exhaust is in plastic bags, once the bags get hot enough they melt and the silencing stuff can start doing its job. My Stealth was already fitted when I bought the car so no idea how...

I got insurance with Highway through Adrian Flux in April. They told me that any non-power mods won't add to my premium, I just have to tell them so they can update their systems. Quote was £780 at 22 with 4NCB. For power at 185bhp, they see it as a 13bhp increase and was an extra £80. I assume...

Nice car and pics. Just not so keen on the front end bein standard as the rest looks good. Either a ph1 172 bumper of colour code the bump strip.

I had the ABS come on today and it felt like it should have stopped quicker, but of course there's no way it could stop slower than locking the brakes (unless gravel, snow etc but it wasn't). It might feel slower but its probably the quickest way for all but the most advanced drivers. Don't...

Doesn't look too bad with amphasite 182 wheels, not sure how silver 182 wheels would look. Still prefer silver standard wheels though.

Look quite similar to turinis. Don't know if white works with Inferno though?

Something like this? http://shop.diveline.co.uk/3213/Laser-Protector-Laser-Pro-Park.html?referrer=froogle&utm_source=google&utm_medium=froogle&utm_campaign=pid3213 Big test here http://www.guysoflidar.com/july-2008/laser-jammer-test.html

Bloody buggery mate. No lesson learnt yet though, time will tell if it has been.

Where these deigned for road or track? £50 each makes them attractive for track tyres if they're very good on track.

I think you are legally suppose to inform them when you get them. Won't affect this years insurance tho. As a guide, I find my 3 points add about 10% on to my policy.

Oh, so no real way to tell except trial and error. Thanks mate.

I've got two strips of the Halfords heavy duty velcro on mine and have had no issues. Used it in my last car and the same velcro lasted 3 years with no probs.

Holy cow, they must have thrown that door open! At least their insurance will sort it now.

4.5kg each! They were a bargain then! Oz Ultras are on my list of potentials too, but I need to find these Magnesium F1s! Good buy!

Ah right. Are the magnesium wheels a lot lighter than standard? I was thinking of Pro Race 1.2 just because I found a decent deal on them and they're quite light. Tow sticker would look good in the same colour as your current stickers as it'd be kind of subtle. Might work in white too, to...

Ah good to know, I'm thinking of getting 15s as a possible track set. Will check out the splitter too but guessing its not cheap lol RE the stickers, just not a fan of stickers on cars in general unless its TOW or they are very small. But I think its kind of subtle on your car, and doesn't...

I may consider this after tuesday afternoon. So with the kit included, it'll fit straight on to a 172?
