Rob - :p "Just laugh it off....." etc. Heheheh....

BSNC - Well I tried to help you and wish I hadnt bothered as you are an arse. If you dont like the nice peeps on this forum then dont bother coming here at all. Not difficult, is it?!

....and lots of total drivel, right? Looking forward to the 9th May when you can celebrate 6000 posts? :sleep::sleep::sleep: Edit - PS: Zidan - nice car :D

No side airbags. Like all good rally cars it has driver and passenger airbags..... ;)

Paddy - the lack of ABS and toys is putting me off. Despite all the (tedious) argument about which is .1 seconds quicker than another, there just isnt that much difference between all the 172 models, so I might look at getting a silver low mileage early MK1 as thats what first got me hooked on...

I really regret selling my 172. So Im going to sell the Williams to get another 172. Then Im going to regret selling the Williams :confused::confused::confused::confused: Bugger.

:sleep:

What sort of power increase does it give? :p

Pretty much all clios have had these since the start of the range (if not all?). Its just in front of the right hand side washer/wiper stalk.

Heheh......good choice, the white!

They dont need to resort to an ECU to tell if you had your belt on in a crash. They can spot it by the hole in the windscreen and the strawberry jam on the pavement....

Poor quality control at Renault?!

I test drove a Fiat Punto HGT and was so bored I went into cardiac arrest.

The only time I get crunching is when I attempt a very quick change when thrasing the car. Even if I put the clutch right in, it still makes a quick but slightly disconcerting *CRUNCH*. Is alright when driving normally though.

lol! Hi Blaze....not seen you on the forum much recently (we met when you drove your brand new MK2 all the way to Ladybower from London, you nutter!). Just going to go put my fingers in my ears now..... ;) Rhys

The XR2 defeat was against the 172 :oops::oops::oops::oops::oops:

lol @ Paddy - you have a point! Heheh....

Ford Galaxy V6 and an XR2. I still swear to god that both had been erm.....tinkered with!!!

According to the AP22, clocks are fairly accurate to about 60 mph but then start to lose it seriously! Both my Williams and Oakleys 1.6 16v were over reading by around 8% by 100mph.

Gorgeous. Not sure about the intake bit (a little bit Halfords!), but a stunning car. THat colour is lovely too, MMMMMmmmmmmm!

Scared the sh*t out of myself in my girlfriends non-ABS Fezza. Was doing 30mph on a slightly damp road with the sun in my eyes. Only saw at the last minute that light were red and people were crossing. Slammed on the brake and skidded. Crapped myself. Thought I was going to kill someone. JUST...

Hi Daz, It all looks well done, but I have to say I really dont get the "bad boy bonnet" thing! Have you actually been naughty? My other half says "if you want headlights like that, get a chuffing Peugeot" ;) Seriously though, are you actually able to use the car at night? What happens to...

Wide arches are the only bits of bodykit that do it for me. The Dimma one is alright but why oh why do they always have to do that naff slashed air intake look-a-like thing at the back of every kit of their that Ive seen? Hasnt someone on here got a Maxi Clio? Anyone got any pics?

I think that they build that Clio with a boot there.....yuk!

Yeah, tonight should be okay. What time & where?

Not sure. Probably be around the £5k mark. Be a few months down the line, but Ive never managed to keep a car for more than 9 months so no doubt within the next 6 months!!! Rhys

Paul - there might be a nice Willy 3 coming up for sale in the next few months....! Im missing my 172 :confused:.

Yes, there can be no fixed figure for any car. It will always vary depending on fuel load, air pressure/altitude, humidity(?), temperature, driver skill, driver weight etc. etc. Best you can give in reality is a "best possible" figure and/or a range. As I said, from the testing so far in the...

I think its 990kgs unladen. Add petrol and driver to that. Its never 1143kg!!!! Willy 3 will be a touch heavier due to ABS and sunroof.

My 0-60mph runs in the Willy with the AP22 have ranged between a low of 7.11 seconds and as high as 8.2 seconds depending on start/temperature/lie of the land/gears used/change point etc. etc. Done it with and without induction kit and de-cat and not seen much, if any, difference! Going back...
