    172 not confidence inspiring in the snow

    Relatively wide wheels and light weight. It's never going to be brilliant. That said, I've never found it too bad - It's not like there's a big dollop of torque at low revs.

    Storm grey 172/182 nearly finished...

    When does the paint go on? /primer ;) Gonna be mint. Guessing the difference between the engines is effectively nowt? It was the exhaust/cat/mapping that supposedly gave the 182 the extra... 3 horses lol

    iPhone 4S...Facebook & YouTube

    Of all the apps I have on my phone, the Facebook app (which one would assume is one of the most popular apps in the world!) is the worst by far. Absolute dogs**t. Even the latest update hasn't sorted the picture related issues.

    De-cat truth

    That's a fair point, actually. My car sounded fantastic (imho) with the decat on. Loud to an anti-social level tbh. And when you start work some mornings at 05:30, it's not really fair on the neighbours!!

    iPhone vs all - Gadget Show

    Siri is pretty s**t. In fact, at the moment, it's nothing more than a (frustrating) gimmick.

    6 Years of 172 Ownership!

    Nice. Best colour, too. :approve: I'm about a month into my 9th year of 172 ownership. 54k. :o

    Is rs tuner good or remap better? Where can I get a rs tuner

    For the money, the RS Tuner takes some beating imho. It's also a great diagnostic tool as well don't forget.

    White iPhone 4S - fingerprint proof!?

    +1. And I'm 25% keyboard 75% dirty hands. The camera isn't all that great, despite being an improvement. As for Siri..... absolute gimmick. And not a very good one.

    Winter Tyres

    Spot on. Anyway... who wants grip in winter? Sliding about is far more entertaining.

    Winter Tyres

    Nah. Both got FWD cars, live near work or use main roads etc. No big hills to tackle etc. I'm not against the idea, but have no real need to change tyres myself. Unfortunately, where I live now, I can walk to work. No snow days for me!! :(

    F4R - F4R RS Upgrade

    Can't imagine it's too much - Only inlet/plenham to accomodate externally I guess?

    2 iPhones catch alight in 2 days!

    Oooh you'll get hounded by the fan boys. Apple products are perfect. It's the users that are faulty. Which reminds me, I still haven't recieved my old iPod replacement yet!

    172/182 reliability?

    Owned since Nov 2003. 54k. One break down (broken wire in loom found out by some exceptionally damp weather in Barmouth lol). Apart from that just the consumable stuff and the odd niggle. I'm not trying to make out they're the peak of reliabilty, because they're not, but they're certainly not...

    is it worth get a ph1 airbox for my..

    No. It was the Emperors new clothes on here at one point, then a few truths were aired about people doing back to back dyno runs and not gaining a bean, and it's populairty died down.

    De-cat truth

    You'll be lucky if you see 2 or 3 bhp. The car will 'rev up' quicker though and you'll definitely feel a difference.

    worth taking rear seats out?

    It does! I did it (albeit to convert my 172 into a van whilst doing some DIY, rather than a track day) and my exhaust was waaaaay louder inside the cabin which instantly gives 20-30 pbhp (perceived bhp).

    How long have you owned yours?

    Almost 8 years to the day. 53 plate 172 from new. How sad. Just ticked over 54k lol

    Forza 3

    FML. I think I've got roughly a minute to get rid off. I did a 8:09 in a 458 and thought I'd done quite well FML again LOL

    Forza 3

    Dusted the Xbox off and had a blast round the ring in a 458 last night. It's still a joy to play. Safe to say the game has definitely still got it... and I never had it. lol!

    Flamer... Now with spacers

    Very nice. Changing to Cup Turinis on my 172 had a similar effect. (10mm either side iirc - ET48.5 to ET38.5). Seems like nothing, but is noticeable.

    Hire car being provided by RUK

    I was given a mk2 1.2 8v when my 172 was still under warranty. It was so slow it was actually dangerous.

    Best Headphones for £100

    Sr80's. Sound is fantastic. Only down side is comfort imho. They're not a set of headphoines you want to wear for a long time imho.
