    Looks like gloss black to me, thats what I had mine done and they look like that (when there clean anyway).

    Newbie - After some DCI info!!

    Don't think you'll get a 80 or 100 for 3.3k unless its done mega miles or is CAT D etc, should be plenty of early 60s to choose from. Those plug in chip things aren't supposed to be worth bothering with and please please don't even think about fitting a dump valve to a dCi, for start you'll...

    going to look at a mk2 172 what to look for

    You'll find most 53 plates will have ESP but not cruise, the later ones will have both. The very latest 04 plate ones should have both but some don't. I've been casting a shifty eye at this as well incase you can't tell lol.

    Something I Never Thought I'd Do...

    You only need the washers etc for the MOT, i've had them fitted for year now and i've never been pulled by the rozzers.

    1.2 16v

    Nope there a SOHC engine to keep costs down, they use rockers so one cam lobe operates two valves. I'll see if I can get a pic off dialogys hold on.

    Xenons? How Hard? Price?

    Should do, some places are more lax than others. Mine aren't fitted with them either, just had to swap the standard halogens in for the MOT.

    Centre Console Modification

    Been thinking about putting some footwell lighting in mine that comes on with the interior light. Just wondering how you've done yours? Feeds wise etc? Would probably use conventional bulbs over leds.

    are you taking the piss?

    Yep. Its not the same as his reg now is it.

    Cambelt on 172-Has it been done?!

    Ah I see, thats good if the aux belt breaks and you don't notice until its too late. Won't have been changed then by the look of it then.

    washer jets broke

    Engine water pump. Not the little electric one in the washer bottle.

    all ready to put on my car

    Should look nice! Where'd you get the axle from? Have to let me know if its just a cosmetic upgrade or if the braking is any better, this would probably be the one final mod to mine if its worth it.

    Something I Never Thought I'd Do...

    You've thought so but it lashed it down tropical style last night so its not looking quite as shiney any more, still silky smooth though. Another one from around here, got quite a few cliosport peeps round here now. And i've never seen most of them. Unfortunately its just because they don't...

    Something I Never Thought I'd Do...

    I actually took the time and effort to detail my car!, never thought i'd bother but having done it once it'll definetly get repeated. Not up to the standard of what i've seen on here but I thought i'd post a few pics anyway. Was nice to clean it rather than take it to bits for once!

    xenon help!

    That'll be for just the one. And the standard bulbs are 4300k btw.
  23. B

    xenon help!

    Yup, as said you need a D2S HID bulb, £70 is about the going rate. Mine have Osram Zenarc bulbs in them and i've seen them for circa 70 notes on the net.

    Powdercoaters in Leicester?

    Be careful with some of the extra charges though, went I had mine done at laptap they were £30 a wheel but there was a £10 strip/refit charge for each tyre and that was without VAT as well. I'd recommend Laptab to the hilt though, do a brilliant job.

    Cambelt on 172-Has it been done?!

    Well the water pump has been removed/refitted so the cambelt SHOULD have been changed, whether it was or not I don't know.

    Is it ok to brake the steering lock?

    Not if the immobilser won't come off because of the transponder in the key. If its just the steering lock then I can't see why not.

    washer jets broke

    Thought the window washers worked? You tested the seperate fuse for the headlight washers yeah?
  28. B

    Just been and test drove a 172

    This is why i've witheld myself from trying one before I can get reasonable insurance on one, otherwise I know i'll end up buying it and paying through the arse for insurance.
