Lolly pop stick with double sided tape?

Two infact mate, very good cars, really enjoyed it. The button start/keyless entry is very novel. I drove an older 06 plate one then a 57' plate one with some of the revisions with regard to the gearbox iirc? We managed to get the 197 for almost 3 hours without the burden of a salesman...

Looks like you have decided what you want :o

Are all the Exclusives plaqued like the Trophies? The best owners register ive seen is the once for Civic Jordan owners. The list compiles nearly all the 500 built including write offs and crash damage examples!

I thought they were only doing them in green,blue and white?

Im always very curious of how people react to getting a 197 after being a 172/182 owner. The 5k kick for instance? You hardly have to wait to get it to move. Call me old fashioned (because i own a Phase 1) But there are no flatspots to speak of is there? Its a 1998cc petrol that weighs little...

Hmmm, not so sure about the white, doesnt really show its lines off aswell as the blue/green It would have to be blue or green for me and im not all keen on the green either :o

Could so with stickers. Possibly of the Aids variety. f**k the haters

FLOL, well spotted that man

My phase 1 172 was registered on March 3rd 2001. She has 56,798 on it Hopefully itll do double that

A drop in the ocean as far as hot-hatch ownership goes imo

Well as i own a Phase 1 i disagree. Why is it nicer? Because there are more buttons to press and the plastic is made in outer mongolia rather than downtown nagasaki? Its all the same to me mate, i bought it because its fast and gives me good fuel consumption. If i wanted to be at one with...

Yes any that are registered before March the 1st 2001. When was mine registered? Thats right, March 3rd 2001. £270 the b******s

Correct, the main difference being that to get a 182 to put out 300bhp you would probaly need a bout 10k lol

It seems the biggest bug bear from the masses tbh, fair enough but if it was the toss up between buying a well cared for and cherished phase 1 and a neglected heap of a Phase 2. My money would go on the Phase 1. Pish interior or not lol

FLOL @ the nasty interior Who looks at the dash when driving or is that the reason so many Phase 1's have been written off/crashed? I chuckle everytime i read that pisch

Indeed. Just found a tin lol

Also keep in mind that the Phase 1 has a shorter throttle cable and a shorter ratio gearbox coupled with 15" wheels. Some say its the fastest, but whose counting :o

The Cup owners Bible ;)

Wouldnt say all cars are worth buttons, id say some have better residual values than others. Thus far the Vauxhall Vectra being an example being worth effectivley buttons to what they were new. All cars deprerciate, given. Some not as bad as others, Alot of car for 10k though the Vectra...

To be fair though, thats a fairly honest advert. Id feel far more convinced buying a cat c if it was being explained as an honest repair than travelling a few hundread miles to find its a pup :o Id buy that tbh, maybe not for those monies though

Oh hai gally x

Why is it girls always take pics holding the camera slanty ways? LOL? Welcome love, watch for Zippo. Hes a sexual predator

Same as everything else is hilarious, SWT, pedo bear etc etc Just because you dont like it doesnt mean it gives you the right to dish out the grief You do know this isnt General chat tho eh?

The fail is in the residual values, just look at what a Vectra VXR costs now:dead:

Rarest of the bunch 31 ever made :o I dare say thats less than 25 left and less than 15 straight examples left. Would swap my Iceberg Phase 1 for one tomorrow!

If you had 30k would you buy this or a used RS4/M3? Not all that impressive to me tbh. 0-60 in 5.8? Audi S3 is quicker ffs Nothing to write home about/ will be worth buttons in 3 years time

Theres no point in throwing bucket loads of money at it and trying to keep up with Subarus and Mitsubishis. Theres no substitute for Cubic Capacity. Want somthing really fast? Buy a really fast car. Making the 182 above 200bhp would cost you an absolute fortune and would probaly compromise...

+++1 Theres no offence intended but as Jaff said the run that day was hilarious and the scottish lads found it funny. If theres offence then dont look :o

If you get enough infraction points you get a prize
