As above a few pics, as she stands..

Engine bay is in need of some TLC

C&C welcome. Hopefully have some new wheels, front end respray, engine mods, and some buckets in the next 6 months

 

[danjf]

[TimR26]

Looking good mate :approve:

 

[Jordi17]

[oliver.james]

Engine bay is in need of some ITB's

Fixed that for you dude

Looks great as always

Fixed buckets in your list of plans? Not getting on with the trendlines, or have other plans?

 

[clairemae]

[Paul.]

[maynard]

[st3ve]

[saltyhair81]

top man, barely run in tbh You obviously take good care of it

 

[Beef-Mc]

Doin well for that mileage.

 

[RichCup]

You sure it'll still be going then?

Looks sweet mate, a true testamony to Renault build quality!

 

[MK3]

looks spot on for the milage mate.

 

[pritchard182]

[Daz.]

I like, but then I would

 

[Ali]

Silve speedline grafix and centre caps needed! But looking well.

 

[Gaz_]

Whaaattt...... Speedline centre caps...?

:nono:

Losing your way son!

 

[Christopher.]

[jenic]

[Goodj]

sweet motor, but I'd suggest using something else to tow a trailer THAT size!

lol It may well have some ITB's fitted.

TBH I never planned on keeping the trendlines fitted for long, as soon as it's no longer a daily driver a set of Bimarco futuras, or Recaro SPG's are going in to go along with my 4 point harnesses, and Sabelt wheel. However ATM the trendlines are great and they work well with the amount of miles I/we still do

Looks mint but does it still pull well?

Yes mate, anyone that has followed me will back that statement. I should have put it on the rollers at the SSR day

top man, barely run in tbh You obviously take good care of it

Knowsit it spends most of it's time on the M3-M4 hence the high mileage.

Silve speedline grafix and centre caps needed! But looking well.

Get out mate


Thanks everyone else for the positive comments :approve:

 

[Edd]

Looks stunning, would never think it had nearly done 120k. How many miles have you put on it?

Cheers mate.

Bought just under 4.5 years on 45,000, so I've done 74,000 miles now.

 

[Ali]

lol! Assume you don't like them then! ha!

Nah I don't mind them fella, I just prefer the Renault centre caps.

 

[Greeny.]

mint as ever mate

[VeinAST]

Lovely Fletch! 20k more than my 20year old

 

[ForceIndia]

What engine work are you planning?


Tbh no1 on that list should be
1-Man-up and get it on track.

Really

Probably just some light mods first (matched inlets remap, maybe new zorst) try and release some more ponies, as it's completey standard bar the maxogen and cat back stealth.

It will be on the track soon mate TBH if It was not doing my extension this year I'd have already let the old girl loose on the track by now.

I'd save the money tbh. Either go all out (itb's etc) or don't bother imo.

Or spend the £300 on road tuition. You'll be far quicker than a 172 with 1-2 extra bhp!!

 

[VeinAST]

Really

Mine drives like a 20 year old car though so small mileage is worth sod all tbh :rasp:

Let you have a look around tomorrow

Fair point fella. TBH she does pull very well still now, I must get it on a RR after it's next service.

Yes mate, that sounds good

 

[ForceIndia]

They fly with age. Go full track ho', ditch the power steering and AC, make more power from that than any remap etc. And it'll be lighter too!

 

[R20 CWH]

tidy barge

 

[Nick172Cup]

Looks in fine condition still Fletch! Mines on just over 101,150 now Cant wait for you to go bonkers on this when the times right, go for a set of Bimarcos as well! Ordered myself a set the other day.

That's the plan eventually. ATM it's my GF daily driver, hence the high mileage, and why I haven't tracked it yet!

But december (by the latest) she will have her own bus, and then I can go full circle with the 172 :evil:

 

[ForceIndia]

Think Fred's made 190bhp. Ditched power steering, AC (cup engine).
