If its a private plate it MUST be at least a 1999 if not newer then, as a plate cannot be issued to a car that will make it look newer than its actual age.
Saying that i know a few poeple who have/had cars with only 2 numbers on the red and they were the ones to be originally issued with the car
I was there, but sadly the 172 didnt make it as i hit a pehasant on the way back from picking my mate up and i now have no windscreen :(
Saw the vee, M40 CUO (looking mint) and the inferno. I was there in my mates black 182.
Not too sure mate i didnt really look into it that much. I noticed your in harrogate, im only over in York so if you fancy it give me a PM.
*sorry for thread hijack :$ *
Awesome project mate. Was gonna do something similar with mine but ended up putting my TBd F7R in.
I have a 15k 182 engine for sale coincidentally, of anyone fancies some of the same!?!? Pm for details!!
Ive found a twin exit blueflame on ebay that looks like itl do for now. Anyone had experience of them? Also, in the picture it shows it fitted to a ph1 172, will it still fit a ph2 172?
Cheers
Aye i saw that cheers mate, but was just looking for a cheap fix for the short-term.
New question then - im after a decent stainless system. Not too loud and no stupid tailpipes. Not too expensive either please :)
My 172 exhaust is on its way out and im presuming that theres no reason (bar the need to cut the bumper and buy a couple of the recess plastics from renault) that a 182 dual pipe system would fit?
Anyone know for definite?
Thanks in advance. :)
You know you need a valver mate!! Goot show phil and tom what a proper french hatch can do. Give it a month or so and ill take you out in the hybrid then ul know for definite which you want :D:D
Thas beautiful mate (maybe even more than mine ;) ) Really like the uncolour coded bump strips and spoiler - set the white off nicely. Oh and im now getting white wheels cos thats looking mint!!

Based in York. My girlfriend uses it more than me tho and goes to York college.
You on any 106 sites mate? A good few of my mates are on rallyeregister/106owners etc.
For all those who have PMd me regarding the carbon dipping im sorry i havent had time to reply. Im afraid i cant help, i just let my mate take them to his work and he did them in his own time . :dapprove:
I will however let him know that its generated a lot of interest and tell himn it would...
lol the wheels were gold before i had them painted.
as said before front bumper has dropped a little as it has no under plastics to support it as they got damaged by a badger related incident and i have them coming from renault.
The whole car needs a good clean everywhere as after it was...
Laingo you got it mate - my friend works at a place that uses hydrographic dipping to apply a film to a chosen material, and as said they primarily do this with guns in a real-life style camo print (which i have on my rocker cover/cam cover and engine plastics on the hybrid). So as stated by...
After some horrible t**t decided to key every panel of mine and my girlfriends car a month back we decided to get it repainted white instead, with a few nice subtle touches.
Anyway, heres the spec of the car and a few nice piccies (more to come when its had a good wash, polish, etc)

Fair paly to ya mate. Looking hot! Ive just had my 172 painted white im picking it up today and off straight to the ring in it tomorrow all being well! Ill bung some piccys up when im back!

Can you PM me some prices on the above parts please Fred?:)
