^ I agree, having driven a mk2 172 loads of times the 5k that people rave on about doesn't seem great at all:( The other thing i've noticed that at 5k upwards the car (which is totally standard,standard exhaust etc) is really loud inside:dapprove: In fact its quite unbearable.

funnily enough, i was waiting for a bus, so wern't in the car. <<< I drive one of these ;)

looks nice & its silver too (very rare !)

my dads did exactly the same, he got his done under warranty no problems.

^ oh yeah he had over 400 :eek: :cool:

Mines got 220 as standard, I know of people running well over 300 thru the front wheels. One thing that really annoys me is torque steer, which you get a lot of if you nail it a bit from standing.

momo's look cool, isotta's arent too bad - as Jamesy says anything will fit if you have bought the boss.

^ I quite like that, although it looks a bit Mitsi Evo..ish to me.

Thats vid's quality, seen it a few times & still makes me laugh.

if you can't get a pair of white wings, they are about £35 each from renault (un painted)

Personally I think that that shape m3 looks rubbish on 18's, the 19's look great, butt he rides supposed to be better with the 18's. I love the vee:D what rear lights are they on it ?? they aren't standard mk2 ones are they ? I also love the m3 - you never see that shape in estoril...

renault sell the one's from the mk1 172 for about £3 each (the mk1 came on oz f1's) they will be silver though. I don't know of anywhere that does black centre caps.

Saw this the other day in dagenham, definately different !!

I thought car supermarkets were knocking 197's out for about 14k ?? Some one priced one up with all of the possible options & it was about the same price as the 197 from renault with nothing added on.

Lmfao - thats one of the funniest questions i've ever seen on here. How on earth could she drive around with a plate looking like that !

I think when the site first started off they had the right idea, but they seem to have run out of the usual sheds (the really badly done cars) so now thay are picking on seriously modded cars which have been planned out & had a lot spent on them:rolleyes: I'm not overly keen on modded cars -...

Personally I don't see how your car did get on there, barry boy cars to me are one's with no thought to mods at all, plus bits done on the cheap (cars with just silly wings shoved on & lexus lights mainly) Your car, although not normally to my taste, looks like its had a few quid spent on it &...

the oil one should rise to the oil level when you turn the ignition on, then it'll driop to zero (don't rely on the guage in the car though) the car should run at about 90 or so when warmed up, as for the oil pressure it'll be lower when the car is idling, it should rise when your driving. I...

I think cars after march 2001 were subject to more road tax, I payed less on my car than my mum did on her focus:rasp:

I prefer the metallic blue, seen a few in that colour & they look nice.

That looks pretty nice, I think changing the grills for 172/182 itms would finish it off.

Don't they get sh*t in them ?? I'd imagine that they would do, what with being forward facing. It does look good though.

blue with polished up plenum & other bits will look cool.

^ I think he's painted the inside ?? I'm loving that army net ;) !! Nice one Martin.

What colour boot are you wearing Miss Valva ?? (im wondering which one you are)

^ Lol - they sound like a bunch of numpty's to me !!!

Looks like your doing a good job on them:cool:
