Ali, what is the current garage selection at your ma and pa's house?

+1! I take back my original comment Mr Haggis McManskirt. Red R32's ftw. :)

Looks like a 1.4 with alloys to me! Obviously i know what they are, but I just cannot see the fascination. LOVING the colour though! So much better than that common blue or rep car silver they do. IIRC, you old fella has a red one does he not?

Did I hear my name being mentioned?? PM me if you want to geordieracer. I've got quite a few cheapies with MOT and Tax atm.

Looks like a low budget episode of 'The Apprentice' !

Eh?! Who's done that?!

Fekkin awesome vid! Good work the pair of you! and FPMSL at the dude in the black Bm cab, he couldn't take his eyes off your car! lol (I so regret not buying your car midge...)

WTF?!

Satin Black is the way forward.... Anthracite has been done to death and it will look like Makavelli's car. Silver looks a little too bright for the flat colour of the car. White is a no no. I had white wheels before and they ALWAYS look dirty. And it will obviously look like...

That prick has completely ruined my thread now, goodnight all.

Ok, lets sum this up as you seem to be struggling with English. My last 172, I paid £1750 for and it needed... repaint (all bar the roof) £1000 Tyres £120 COMPLETE brand new suspension £250 fitted MOT £30 Power steering pump £200 fitted 2 new wheel bearings £75 fitted Strut tops and...

I don't really understand what you are getting at... ''A nice hobby funded by joe public who buys your cars'' I don't get shirty with people that work for BT because the company is making money out of me. You seem very bitter about people making money out of cars. Thats the 3rd or 4th time...

No Climate.

It was deffinately him. He's got some more foglights bolted on his front bumper now.

My mate has a 80,000 mile W plater coming in, i've asked him to ring me as soon as its in.

What?! who's rattled your cage???? Who's knocking it?? We've all got to pay the mortgage somehow pal.

I don't tend to make money on my 'personal' cars as i normally get them to the standard i want. The last one cost me a LOT of money. Respray, suspension, tyres, MOT, servicing, engine mounts etc etc. 9/10 i'm lucky to get my money back!! Its a hobby really. I really enjoy getting a car in need...

The shortest ever was 1 hour and 45 minutes. Picked it up, didn't like it, traded it. LOL! Longest ever was my 1st 172, had the girl 18 months and loved every minute. My 1st track day in it, the first car i 'modified' properly and the 1st car i actually loved.... :( belongs to mrmahoosive on...

Unfortunately not. :( Al, my Mrs is an absolute diamond!

I broke a proffesional ratchet trying to get mine out!! Ended up using some scaffold and a wheel brace!

FPMSL! I'm actually on Ebay atm trying to find some decent scalextric cars....

I'd have loved to, but i wouldn't drive it anywhere as i was worried about scratches/shopping dents etc and to be honest, I get bored once I have done what I want to them. I want a mint Exclusive next, sucking the floor on some coilovers.

What can't?

Sunbeam is still on. He is an old guy and wants to take his time, so this is to tide me over. I'm driving a 2.4d Volvo estate atm so its not all rosy!

Proper! Good work.

I will not reveal until it is in my grasp. Its quite rare, and I do not want to push my luck. Oh f**k it! I'm collecting a silver Cup saturday morning. CAN'T f**king WAIT!..... (....to sell it on, probably at a loss and end up with another f**king ph-1!)

No??

I have just put a deposit on another bloody 172! Thats the 4th one now! I really need to get out more.

Ant, i was watching him on the day and tbh he is a f**king liability. Over avonrise where the car has no weight due to a bump in the road, he was steering AND braking. The car was twitching all over the place. That has not nothing to do with the cars power or the brakes, its down to a lack of...

I was in the black L200 last night, you were sat at the lights on Bromey heath road.
