    New to renault, but won over by ph1 172 flamer, progress pics.

    It was a toss up between these & turini reps: If all else fails though, I'll just go back to f1's.

    I have considered it, but have found some turini reps instead. They should look good once on.:D

    Nobody seems to be listening to me, The f1's 'WILL' be going back onto the car eventually. The original f1's will need 3 new tyre's and n/s/f alloy had been buckled by previous owner. These alloys are only TEMPORARY for mot and a stop gap while I sort out the f1's. I only sprayed the ph2 ones...

    Still quite a way to go yet, but had time for a few bits over the last few days. Full brake overhaul & new n/s/f bearing before being cleaned up, previous fluid was literally black. I have no idea when it was last changed :S The leather on the steering wheel was way beyond salvaging so...

    sorry to DP, but could of had gone the turini route.. but I don't like them. Horses for course's I suppose.

    I have the original f1's, but three tyres need replacing on them & mot is looming, which gives me time to anthracite the f1's. Though I really do like these on it.

    Thought I'd update an old post to let you guy's know a ph1 flamer is still alive . :p There's no sub anymore & after sitting for another four months nothing new bar a fabia splitter & 172 alloys. First time I drove it again I remembered why I loved it so much ;)

    Several 1*2's around the Lincoln area;

    That would be me. I would have gave a thumbs up buddy but I was late for work & engaged in my early morning o/s/r tyre inflating rigmarole. I wasn't expecting to see so many sports in one place at such an early hour.

    Cheers all, it's getting there. It's been a pain in the a*** getting lifts everywhere for parts and what not while it's been off road, so should speed things up a bit now, time & money permitting. I was aware the ports were smaller but I'm not looking for quick or anything, just a tidy ph1...

    Came across this

    This'll be the rare 'council white' clio. You can tell this is the genuine article as they had a common problem with the back box melting the rear bumper and colour coded with tipex. They also stuck the sport badge on the wrong side just to prove a point. Those crazy frogs.

    It's horse's for courses as with anything, but I'm going to give them a whirl.

    Been busy preparing for mot, s**ting bricks on the day.. never smoked so much. But went through fine with only one advisory - a knackered o/s in door handle (waiting on new ones). so all is well and now back on ze road. Had a chance to colour code the strips, a royal pain in the a**e to do as...

    The belt was from the old engine after changing the water pump. The ph1 grew on me & the engine was cheaper to replace than salvage.

    Been fairly busy preparing for mot, had a few problems with abs light with new discs & new abs rings sorted that out. Decided to keep the ph1 rear lights and had my old man do his stuff on them. O/s turned out to be cracked so will be replaced. They look great though. Finally got round to...

    I'd ordered some straight after posting & you've just put my mind to rest. cheers buddy.

    Got to do a little bit of work on it today and first on the list was to find out what had caused the management light to stay on. Turned out to be the 02 sensor so a quick reset and jobs a good un. Fitted the front bumper & CAF (running underneath n/s headlight). Also found a dimmer bulb...

    Re: Ph1 172 Awesome car fella, I'll be pinching some ideas.;) What back box is that?

    After showing a few comparison pics to mates at work of the rear lights, the jury is still out.. some say keep, some say go back to ph1. Though, one good thing did come out of it. I was intending to strip the interior out and just have two recaro seats & strut braces, but I've decided to keep it...

    Sorry to DP folks, but nipped to upload some pics. When I first got the car I did a small service myself, plugs, oil filter, oil etc.. but there was a whine coming from the water pump so while changing the water pump this was state of the old belt: And you thought gillette was a close shave...

    Yes mate it's fine. I wasn't expecting much for 6-7 quid off fleabay, but as it turns out it works perfect. It's more of a powdery matt spray that sticks well with only two coats and looks normal. Give it a go buddy, it does the job nicely. Having no service history and nothing changed on the...

    Thanks for the welcome. I haven't fully decided yet, that's why I hadn't wired them up. I'll see how it goes.

    As with title, I was on the market for something cheapish that had a bit of poke that's not ten a penny and came across a standard, untouched flame red ph1. I've never owned a renault before and as a driver by trade (new cars) after a quick test drive out in the ph1.. I loved it. A very...
