Mk1 172s are nice.;).....
Nicks Valver Hybrid is just p**n. You know you want to.

A flame red Mk1 172. Wish i could have found one.:cry:
if you see one in the metal. you wont want any other 172.
Black looks good. For an hour.
Is the silver 172 a Mk1 or Mk2?

Pauls Mk1 172 wins it for me (Clarkie 172)

Mike, does your Calibra have a big rear wing on it?.....if so, i see you all the time!
Heres my car. Its a Mk1 172 with gunmetal Mk2 wheels. Look out for it in Warrington if your out and about.;)
....oh, and im a waver too....well...i raise my hand/flash lights.:oops...
I thought id post this up as i have just returned from getting some early morning Optimax, and no less than 4 non-RS Clios have tried it on with me.
I was wondering how many RS owners had this to deal with on a daily basis?! Im sure it cant be just me!
i.e. lesser powered non-rs clios...
^^^the man is right. F4Rs arent the most strangled-by-emissions engine, but they all have lumpy idle partly due to this.
Try running a chip and cams...then you will know what lumpy sounds like.:devilish:
Another pointer, my Mk1 172 seems to run worse when cold on poverty-spec 95 RON. Try to...
Mk1s all the way.:D
...also with Mk2 bits.;)

Do what i did.
Buy a Mk1. Paid just under £6k for it. 42k miles FRSH.
Then make it a Mk1.5.

;)get em polished Winston!
Will look great. Can David do you a blanking plate out of carbon for the passenger side door mirror...it would weigh about the same as tape. So you would be ok.
Who did you sell the R10s to then?

aaaaaaghhhhhhhhh.
Could you not exchange my Mk1 172 inlet manifold then Fred?!....
Ive been after one of these for ages and have the cash waiting.
