I give this fella the nod a few months back just before the Dartford crossing!!!

Nice car mate.....Gotta love the trophy's!!! :approve:

Looks shite mate.......Standard's look much better!!! Has anyone tried 182 cup rims on a ph1?? Rekon they would look good against the black!!!

I always check mine via dipstick but where on the dash does it show oil level?? :S Do we mean when we start the car and it say "oil ok" or is there summin else?

www.motorsportworld.co.uk I put a BMC on mine the weekend, love it mate.

Lol, you love the ff 172 deep down Roy!!! ;) If you've got between 8 and 10k to spend mate you pick up a good 182 but with your budget id say you'lll be looking at a good 172. If thats the case go for the cup!!! ;)

Would have to be the e46 though i rekon, think the 36 is getting abit dated now........Can pick them up sub 20k too!!! Maybe mate, give us a shout if your about!!!

Lol, theres some cars there mate........Id go for the M3!!! ;)

Lol, think there all the same tbh mate, im usually a tame driver in comparisson to most though so dont suffer from the complaints as much thank gawd!!! ;) Thats not good about the car but tbh as with my past Renault engines and even current sometimes they make odd noises and then the next day...

Nice to meet you too fella.......Will have to do it agen sometime and maybe have a few blats too if the gf gets left at home!!! ;) Yeah its stevo in the silver 172 mate.

Only 160?? :S I got mine to 161 tonight!!! ;)

Lol whether thats true or not you cant compare a performance car such as the 1.8 16v to a 1.2 16v, 1.4 16v or 1.6 16v even if it does have better aerodynamics!!! So you think if all 4 were piitted against each other, rolling at 90, the valver wouldnt blow them all away?? Get real mate...

No mate, I just know the rest of the pages are gonna be filled with drival........Iv read page 6 and i agree that saying a 1.2 could achieve 120 mph is bolloy or a missreading of the speedo in question. Look at it like this, a 1.8 16v mk1 (i had one so im qualified to say this) would need a...

Lol, 1 post down, nail on head, no need to read the other trillion pages!!! Lol

I chopped mine in the weekend mate and noticed an instant difference, sooooo much smoother up the revs it unbelievable. I cant comment on how good the original box is cause i bought the car 4 months back with the k&n on it but iv changed over to a BMC and think its brilliant.......Nowhere...

Possibly mate, will give you a text if i am!!!

Dont get me wrong mate mine will pull on it no probs and thats without bouncing off the limiter allday, dont genrally take it past 6.8ish k on a good day, i also value my brakes and tyres which Nick doesnt usually!!! Lol Had plenty of blags with a pals ff 172 there aint much in it til 70/80...

Lol, probs mate his is an 06.......Bet he wernt too pleased with that though!!! I had a few tussles a few weeks back from rolling first but was in slight mist so wernt too happy takin it to the higher speeds that he was willing to go, nevertheless didnt have a problem pulling from the start...

Lol, was it Nicks ST?

Erm probs not mate, i headed back onto the island about 11-30, did take a trip down the strip ;) but didnt see anyone down there so just headed home. Dont think i touched long road anyway. Was it busy out? didnt know people still went down ther!?

^^^cat d, light front end damage!!!

From one JayR to another, thats fuckin s**t mate!!! Hope you get it sorted at the least cost to you possible!!!

......Well after 4 months of owning the 182 i finally got round to ditching the open knn the car come with. I decided against going for the standard route and instead picked up a BMC to replace it. Well all i can say is after fitting it yesterday im so glad i did it and cant believe iv gone...

Total beautay mate........That engines a work of art!!!

Beauties.......Both of em!!! :approve:

Quality and well done for saving the cash to buy it outright!!! :approve: Your a better man that I!!! ;)

Lmao but were not exactly running anything near a Ferrari now are we!!! On topic i used to swear by it until i put a tank of Optimax one day and havnt looked back sinec, doesnt only give better economy, the car runs much better on it i find!!! Will take a few tank fulls of either to notice...

Look very nice indeed mate.....I thinking of going that black myself!!!

^^^Used to put it in everytime mate........Thought it was good until i started using the shell fuel!!! ;)
