172 - most refined, comfortable car ever!

[rt172]

And Im not joking. Ive just bought a 500cc Suzuki motorbike for commuting and keeping the miles off the 172 (its on 30,000 now and Id like to keep it there for a while). Ive just spent a couple of days neglecting the car so i could play with my new motorbike.

Anyway, I got in the car the other night, and something amazing had happened!

The seat was low and very comfortable, there were NO rattles, the steering was light and very responsive, it has about 10 times more grip when cornering and was quiet as a mouse, even with the K&N and de-cat on.

So, if youre fed up with the rattles and noise, get a motorbike and youll then appreciate that your car is actually a French Rolls-Royce

Well I drive about 25k a year in a wallowy, noisy escort van so I REALLY appreciate those seats. You can do 200 miles straight in the 172 and get out without any aches and pains. It really is a top motor.
