Ive got the exact same problem. Been to dealer today who says that they had the same prob with one a couple of weeks back and after keeping the guys car in for a week they couldnt get the fault to reoccur and so couldnt do anything about it.
To be honest I was really nervous at first :oops: (arnt we all). Got paranoid that people were driving too close to me .
Temp gauge also says -4c so dont fancy sliding into a lampost just yet.
I hope not only got the car 7 hours ago!!!!!!
Dosnt look like its been ripped off at all just dont think its been put on in the first place.
And I was so happy I had the boot net...
Well its been an epic saga, the car that was estimated to arrive mid to late October arrived today after several delays and a lot of chasing New car discount.com . First impressions were fantastic of a tight, well built and solid motor.
Then came the first niggle, driving down dual...
Thing is the fuzz are especially kean on spot emissions testing round here, girlfriend got pulled over last week and failed which should have been a £60 fine but she fluttered her eyelashes at them and got off provided she get it sorted

lagerlout1,
Got email yesterday(Wed), and usually reply to emails same or next day.
It looks as if I am not alone in my wait I just thought it was a long time seen as ordered it 26 of August!!!
Would have got an older one but wanted the new cruise control gadget, ah well good things come...
OK fed up of waiting for car, so thinking what I can do to it when I actually get it.
One of the reasons I opted for a 172 was its good mpg. I know mods usually increase fuel consumption but I was wondering what difference peeps with exhaust, induction (enclosed/open), and ECU chips/remaps had...
Just had this email from Newcardiscount.com
"Your original estimated date of delivery was October. I can now confirm that
delivery has been delayed until end of November possibly beginning
December.I realise that this is a much longer waiting period than you and
ourselves were expecting...
Cheers guys.
Used to have a mini cooper so looking forward to go-kart handling again:devilish:
Seen plenty of silvers about and I love JillyBs:cool: black.
Again thanks for the comments
Hiya peeps, been reading the forum and have decided to save for a 172.
What is the handling like co,pared to the Focus as mine sticks to the road standard.
Also what colour do you recommend thinking black or silver.
Any thoughts appreciated
Cheers!!!!
