I was looking at getting an ST170 3 and a half years ago but went for the 172 in the end. If I was to make the choice now then unless I really needed the extra room it would still be the 172 every time!!
Don't get how you think a ph2 172 looks dated compared to a 182 mind:S.
Meant to say T99 ACH sorry:o
Just seen you on the ring road and going down Wakefield road again. Black roof looked good although I couldn't see it much from inside my car. A little high those 200's;).
Doesn't matter, if you saw an extreme in 30 years time you would still deem it a classic. Albeit not a very nice/great one. Take the mk2 Ford Cortina for example. looked s**t, went s**t and had no character. Same with something like the Austin Allegro yet they're still classed as classics now...
Given enough time all the 1*2's will become classics.
Also why does everyone seem to assume that a car has to be a performance car to become a classic?
Don't remember the 205, Golf GTI's etc having plaques on them. Classics? yes they are and I bet they made as many if not more.... The 1*2's will end up the same in terms of "classic" come 20 years down the line.
Nice one, didn't take long to get bored of the GTI then! If you end up needing to take it in I can recommend a good garage over my way. Always cheap and seems to knows his s**t...
I bet a powered one would be fine. I've heard of people welding full tanks before!
At the same time if insurance are taking it and end up writing it off then tell them it had a full tank and have the amount added to the payout. That's what I did once.
As said, what if he's accounted for all that? People do and then have spare cash lying round to spend on other things be it home or car etc. If he can't really afford it then fair enough your right but you don't know that....
Where did I say your a "Max Power" chav??
I commented on the poor standard of your English! Funny how you seemed to have sharpened it up a little... 115mph lolz...
