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
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.
Around 1:45pm today, was behind me from Sky Blue Way all the way down The Pheonix Way A444,
untill Courthouse Green roundabout at Sainsbury's.
Car looked very nice, as did you. ;)
Sorry no pics lads, I was driving on busy roads and it would have been dangerous,
not to mention a little rapey.
Bedroom : Rear seats, seat belt sockets, Isofix bar and plastic cover for it.
Pantry floor :
OEM airbox, OEM stereo & multichanger, car jack, wheel nuts, spare engine oil, coolant, washer fluid, all the cars cleaning stuff,
engine hoist bracket that fell off the other day while I was driving...
It's good to know that if times get really hard and God forbid I have to get rid of the 172,
there's a cheap alternative that gets along the road well. (with a bit of fiddling of course)
£20-£30quid Tax a year for a DCI, i'm almost angry at that lol,
I just payed £245 quid!!!
Although I do have a sh*t load more power than a DCI, so I shouldn't grumble really.
I think it looks better with a few black bits here and there.
If I ever earn more money and get out of the poor house and finally get a track car,
i'd paint it NATO geen for sure.
I honestly considered one of these when I first got my Clio, coming from Golfs I missed my armrest on motorway journeys.
I've got use to not having one now, but for £23quid I might buy one just to see how I get on with it,
shame there are no photos of it fitted.
Right i've had a look under the bonnet and there's no damage to anything as far as I can tell.
Top left bracket in this old pic of my engine.
Cheers for your help lads. :approve:
First thing this morning i'm driving down the road and hear a clunk then see something
bouncing down the road behind me, I turn around and go back up the street and a passer by
flags me down and says 'something just fell off your car mate' this was sitting in the road.
I've tried searching...
The only person I know in Cov with a blue 200 Gordini is Curley, he tends to hang out on 197.net
although i'm not sure he'd fit HIDs, it's not his style.
Shame he was on the motorway, if it happened on a B road he could have stopped and put the thing in his boot,
pheasents are worth a bit of money, could have helped pay for some of the damage.
That's a thought, I think I know one that was training as a Windows techie the last time I spoke to him.
I'll give him a shout tomorrow, along with everyone else I know just in case. lol
