Currently looking all over for my first RS. I know its high miles, but is this familiar to anyone? Maybe someones P/X...

Thanks Mick, unfortunately im based in Ipswich! Much appreciated advice though

So i finally got my ph1 172 (all fine there!). Still trying to sort out my 1.4 sport to sell. But everytime i fix something something else goes wrong. For about a month now the 1.4 has decided not to start always first time, it ticks over fine, the immboliser light switches off, but does not...

As title says... any recomendations?

Not to sure whats been put and what hasnt. About 3-4 years ago when i was 14ish, all the older boys on my est and school has s**t like led washers, fake disc brakes. f**k off spoilers, look like they'd been made in the woodwork shop. Angel eyes. You name it, and i thought it was cool, and even...

Havent seen you about ipswich. Were abouts are ya? Cars looking good.

lol what the f**k is that.

Lol, i hope she is, i've just read through the thread waiting for some pics................... let down and a half.

At first glance, that spoiler looks like peter crouch is sticking out of your boot. Each to our own, maybe once your lower it it'll tie it in more. Maybe. GO for it though pal, your car

In a perfect world i need a new tailgate, because ill be quite embarrased to let my 1.4 go with a dent in her. So anyway, i have a tailgate im looking at on ebay, how hard are they too fit? Changing locks etc etc. Wiring. I dont want to buy the fucker and it become a pig to fit it. It needs...

:) Im chuffed with it. Dont it over the phone and have policy number. I had to double check and ask it was for a 172 not my 1.4s!

You may remember me babbling on about insurance on my 1.4 being 6k. Ive shuffed about on the net and phones, and have had a quote from the same broker, tesco. For a 2000 172, at £1726 for a year. From what i gather that is a good price for a 18 year old with no ncb. 1 year exp. I have me as main...

Insurance is a joke huh. Stressful s**t ive managed to get a 3 month policy with a local broker for 110 a month. Which ill go for until i can find a better annual deal. Isit just clios? Or isit young drivers as awhole? Going from 313 to 2k is going to be a shock and a half.

Bloody hell lol.

313 for a year, on my own policy. At 17 lol

This is no joke, i got a letter through from tesco today. I have been paying 300 for a year on my 1.4 sport. I now get a letter saying my renewal will be 6000 lol!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I went on there site, and yes it comes through at 6k, yet a 172 of the same age comes through at 1600.Logic??

Im looking for someone whos 18/19 and owning a 172. Whats the insurance like? Im on my old mans insurance atm, and will have a years no claims come June. And wanting to go onto my own....

I figured i'd show you fellas and ladys how things are coming along. Slowly. Very slowly. I havent posted pictures since purchasing, nearly a year ago now. So here's how she started; 17s. Colour coded. Clear side repeaters. Usual standard mods i suppose. I then has a spell of unluckyness...

Bad habit. Every rs i see.

Took me until i lowered mine to cure it. Gone now. Never found out what it was. Rattle from sunroof/handle/roof lining. Annoying though huh? Pretty pointless post i know.

Hunt them down.

No lol. Mine werent like that at all. Ebay job?

No no, it was a stretchy boot. Universal. I used the lube provided and some other that i had lying about from work. As there seemed to be bugger all provided. They have offered me a replacement.
