I've had 11 172's and the only actual problems i've had were Coil packs (on 2 of them) and ht leads (on 3 of them).
Apart from that, make sure its had the cambelt kit/Aux belt kit done as thats a £400 job.
Not all car dealers are c***s. :(
But even in the pics I wouldn't bother going to look at it. Front bumper looks like its been nailed on, no stereo, fog light smashed....
You ''upgraded'' from a 197?!
No you didn't. You bought an uglier car! ;)
Fair play mate, like you say each to their own. (I can't stand them. 197's however...)
The Best I have driven was my old R27 Company car. Absolutely loved that thing!!!
I sold it to a guy that wrote it off at the 'Ring. :(
I just can't warm to the mk2 ph2 mainly due to the driving position. Its terrible.
Why would you do that? You'd be better off taking it to McDonalds.
Can't you take it to one of the specialists off here? Birchdown, BTM Performance, JMS Tuning etc?
Yep. I'm taking it to my mates house on saturday, so it needs to be!
(Just waiting for my Coilovers now. It will be rolling on standard williams shocks and springs in the meantime!)
I've booked a day off work next week to funally get my car on the road. Looking forward to it!
Going to lock the garage doors, switch my phone off and just enjoy my own company! :D
Drilling and jigsawing your bonnet! lol!!
Not something i'm looking forward to doing on mine. Had them about 3 months but can't bring myself to drill my bonnet! lol!
I use a mobile guy to repair the wheels of my cars at work and his work is spot on.
Can do any finish what so ever. (Painted, polished etc)
All you need is a compressor and some paint and you're good to go! lol.
