Car looks fantastic on track Jamie. How did it drive? Was it your first trackday?

They are very good value for money. Servicing and repairs aren't cheap for a hatchback but they're generally reliable if looked after so yeah, they're good. Shame they're expensive to insure.

The alloy bonnet is so light isnt it. I went to open my mates Clios bonnet and though the catch wasn't undone because it was so heavy compared to mine. My 172 had the shift light too, it was cool when it lit up, I'm impressed by small things like that lol

Re: The original & the worst since 2004, well every other sods cleaned this weekend.. Its looking stunning as always!

+1 if anything they're easier to drive than a 1.2. They go round corners better, stop better etc. The power delivery is very linear too which makes them easy to drive its not like you've got a dustbin lid sized turbo boosting suddenly at 3.5K rpm.

Two great cars. Love the valver and the RB is mint as always.

Quiet the mechanic aren't you Alex. Glad its sorted mate.

Not going to make this one lads, i'm in work.

Sounds very good. They're a good quality system.

Re: The 'TeamAriane' clio... Ghetto goodness. I'm sure you'll have fun in his lads. Looking forward to the progress!

I meant I wouldn't be worried about ragging it.

Looks good mate. Hope it sells easily for you.

I'd put money on that being a member of staffs car and the other staff had done it. I worked at maccies when I was at college and someof the lads put 48 eggs on another lads car. Which then froze, was very, very funny.

I wouldn't mate, because i'm sure the previous owners didn't mind ragging it.

Buy Nashy's car then swap the seats over with somebody who has standard seats. That way you'll get about £800 + the seats you want. That then reduces the price of the car down to £7700ish which is very, very cheap.

I'd break it. You've got a lot of desirable mods on it which should sell easily. ITB's shouldnt be hard to shift.

No it would require some modifications I think. If you search you may find some more info on them.

Stick a cat off a ph1 172 on it, the twin cat type. Its supposed to be every bit as good as an aftermarket sports cat and a hell of a lot cheaper.

AG is awesome in the metal. That would be my choice. Ultra Red is very nice too. I'm not a fan of white on the 197/200 its just not my thing.

I've test driven one and they do just make you smile when you drive them. They're not quick but not so slow you are annoyed driving it, handing is epic on them they're so chuckable.

Hmm, i'm not sure about the removal of the back box. I don't mean to critisie, maybe its the video but around 30 seconds into the video when its idling it really sounds like a diesel.

I wouldn't bother with the tints personally mate. It just cheapens the look of the car in my opinion. Plans sound good though mate.

Still hunting for a cup rack then? I can't imagine they're easy to find, need to wait for somebody to bin a cupped 200 without damaging the rack.

Nice 182. The old austin is cool too.

Hope the lads ok. If I ever do the ring, which I do plan on doing i'll be pretty much doing sight seeing laps. Not a track to do flat out unless you have a lot of experience on it.

Very clean. To be fair I don't think the colour choice and wheels help you thinking its ugly. You had your reasons though which you've already explained. How does it drive with the new rack in? it has gone in hasn't it?

So much hard work gone into keeping this car mint. Credit to you Chris!

Nice range of cars. All very nice.

Very nice. Don't ruin it by adding loads of ph2 parts. Ph2 rear lights are great but not a fan of the other ph2 parts on the ph1's.

Very tidy that mate. Good upgrade.
