I got a flat pack sofa from Ikea in mine, once built the sofa was almost as long as the car. I like the people that have 4x4s or estate cars so they can take their terriers down the park, my massive German Shepard fits nicely in the back of mine no problems. But then I don't have any...

LY R27, private plates, Cup Spoiler and what looked like an aftermarket exhaust sticking out of your diffuser. 3:40pm taday, I was behind you more or less from the Blue Ribbon island Foleshill Rd, down to the Sainsbury's roundabout Courthouse Green. I was in a ph2 Iceburg 172.

Wow, Knight Rider was a massive part of my childhood, looking forward to seeing you get stuck into this project. Please tell me when you're finished the next project will be either this, or this. :D

I can't tell with yanks, she's either super excited to be a 'professional' photographer, or taking the piss massively. Either way my f*cking brain just melted from being spoken to like a 3 year old for 8 minutes.

If I was you i'd see if you can get it welded together on the cheap while you get some money together, you need the car to work while you weigh your options on a new exhaust.

Give them a good clean before you take photos for the 'parts for sale' section and you'll get £50 all day long for them.

This might make me look like a bellend but, do these hose kits do anything other than pretty up the engine bay? Do the standard hoses deform under presure or something? I already have a silicone induction bend, it can with the JMS V6 airbox setup I bought, but is there any advantage in...

I have a one touch passenger window, the switch is half f*cked and sticks when you pull it up. lol

Lol yes, but it's good to know there's a lazy man option. ;)

I did think the other day when driving home from work, I wish I had one like my old Golf when some tw*t behind me had full beam on. This one plugs into the cigarette lighter, £60 delivered though...

I stand by my previous statement. JESUS WEPT!!!! That's not a car, that's a frigging space ship!!! He did pick his moment and had more room than the first video makes it look, it looks mental from the viewpoint of the cars he overtook.

As far as I know they were fitted to 172cups and then some later 172s early 182s, tbh I don't think even the French know which cars they fitted them to.

Oh definitely, the cars totally different from when I bought it, and I have the opposite of the placebo effect in my head, I always asume any mod isn't going to be as good as people say, so on a few mods i've been pleasantly surprised. Remap was the best by far, Fastchip RS Tuner box. The V6...

I would think that cold air feed ducting would be cheaper and easier than trying to source an oem replacement.

Maybe that's it then, as the first thing I did was get a decent exhaust, then inlets, remap, then the JMS V6 airbox/induction setup in that order. So maybe getting inlets that early on was never going be noticeable.

When the first car went past I thought that wasn't that bad, what's the problem? Then f*ck me, was that the Starship Enterprise? JESUS WEPT!!!!!

I must be the only person on here that noticed bugger all difference. :(

If you have an RS stamped lower inlet, fitting a matched inlet wont make any noticable difference to the performance. (apparently) Not sure about the upper inlet though. The casting on the RS stamped inlets was alot better than standard.

Depends on the casting of your standard inlets, I think mine were pretty good to begin with, when I got matched inlets I didn't really noticed anything other than a smaller bank balance. But alot of people have said it's one of the best mods they've done. Make sure you check your lower inlet...

I work every Sat & Sun, so i'm buggered for meets. :( Bank holiday Mondays are good for me. haha ;) (Not suggesting everyone should bend to suit me of course, it's just that posting in here is the only way I can join in) :cry:

I've got RS2s on mine and they're great in the wet. The first time it really pissed it down when I was on the A46 between Stratford upon Avon and Coventry, the road was like a lake and not once did it feel like I was going to auqaplane, also when I looked in the rear view mirror, I had two...

Sod all as it'd be too distracting.

Yep i've got two of them, they're called portrait professional & photoshop lol, that and a make up artist that'll trowell the sh*t onto thier faces if I tell her to. haha

If I was you i'd keep photography as a hobby as there's f*ck all money in it anymore, :( if I could back in time and tell my 15 year old self to become a dentist I would, I've never met a skint one, they all drive Porsches and Bentleys. :S Also you're right, it's not easy to make the fuglies...

I work in another photographers studio as a freelancer, it's a mix of babies, familys, pets and model makeovers. I pissing hate kids but most of them are well behaved, some of them i'd like to just slap round the head. Luckily most of the women that come for model makeovers are fit and between...

Like you I was roughly doing the speed limit, ;) I was on my way to work in Stratford Upon Avon had to be there for 10, i'm a photographer and I was in the studio all bloody day, so didn't get a chance to go on CS until I got home. Nice to see another member out on the road, the Midlands can...

That was me mate, you car looked nice and clean unlike mine lol, were you late for something? ;) This is the first time anyone has spotted me in 4 years, I was starting to think I lived in isolation. :p

No, but I know a lad in Cov thats got an Iceburg 172cup with yellow bullets and badges.

Probably wasn't me then, i've got a CS sticker in my rear window, also my car's so filthy it's not exactly silver anymore lol.

Cotball where abouts was the 172? As I was outside a bodyshop today in Bagington. I also spotted an Iceburg 172 with 182 wheels parked on the curb outside National car rental Earlsdon.
