Loving the attention to detail!

Start of the decade, the trusty, reliable, super fun 172 replaced that with this: Was the most capable, fun, dynamically incredible car. To me it was my dream car but...unfortunately being made redundant forced a change which brings me up to date: My brother was going to trade this in for...

Does that mean you have to trailer it to the MOT station?

I think this thread needs updating... @mattf4r

As a driver it was absolutely fine. As a passenger it was not. I was quite rural when I had it and whilst it was an exceptional B Road machine, it was only ok when not “pressing on”. I will add though, I didn’t find it crashy, just very firm.

I think an exclusive would be a great place to put your money...if it had a phase 2 interior and phase 2 rear lights and different wheels :giggle:

My understand of the law (and someone please correct me if I’m wrong), It’s not the size of the plate that determines if it’s legal or not. It’s the size and spacing of the letters and numbers. You can therefore have a “cut down” plate and still be legal.

Lip sync was still an issue but changed some of the settings (turned off the sound modes) and it is perfect now. Sky Q is perfectly aligned now. The blacks are seriously black! Costco is the best price if you’re a member.

Just purchased the 55 inch LG C9, very happy with it so guess that’s a +2.

I did manage to get basic sky plus with only the minimal package for £13 pm when speaking with them. Due to the F&F deal, didn’t bother and ordered as much as possible!

Know someone who works for sky! 50% off no quibble.

What’s the minimum spend? Edit: see it’s mentioned above since I last refreshed.

If the weather holds i’ll be there.

Oh dear. They are in a lot of trouble!

They seem pretty adept at reacting to the slides, they can certainly pedal! With taking those risks, I can’t help but think it will end up pretty badly in the end with a major off.

Was good to catch up / meet you all...and not 1 clio in sight!

Did hear someone mention JCW mini?! ;) If the weather is ok I might make the trip (with little ones in tow) if rainy, may be a bit much for them. ?

Looks awesome as always. How do you keep the wheels so clean?!

Sounds good to me. An excuse to clean the outside!

Ah, I see. Got to be done though i guess if you’re using as a daily, especially if they’re so easy to remove.

Mark, out of interest you mentioned the modifying has begun (on instagram), couldn’t quite work out exactly what you had done! Out of interest, what did you do?

Late 172 so comes with cruise controll. Dodgy exhaust but looks honest: https://rover.ebay.com/rover/0/0/0?mpre=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.ebay.co.uk%2Fulk%2Fitm%2F202568766398 Certainly makes a few of the other low mileage cars for sale at the moment look expensive. Got nothing to do with the sale but...

Think @moktabe should buy it for the plate ?

Looks like a great opportunity that.

You need to show off your “new” car, not hoover the carpets!

1) I think I did this...but had 2 keys!! Can’t you get an automotive locksmith, worth a try as they’d get you in.

?

I appreciate i sound like a fan boy but I ordered some stuff a few weeks ago and it arrived within a few days. I guess they must like me?!

Awesome pics once again. Love the little details you keep updating. The gift that keeps on giving!
