172 owner

[Gttnutter]

Hi all i've just bought my 1st 172

I'm pleased with it and it'll be used as a track toy along with some road use

Currunt state is stripped on the inside with 2 sparco's and a cage

On the outside its white, with very good paintwork

weitec coilovers
fully polybushed
182 manifold with de-cat
a few other bits and pieces

I'll get some pics up if the weather is good in the next day or so

Got a few little problems and a few spares i need so hope people can help out with some good advice and parts

Also knock 600 off the price it went for on ebay, i didnt win it, i went up there about 2 hours before, so i got a right touch, I let him keep the leather stuff though and just took the car

 

[Chrisjk]

Result that. Wish it tried to get in on it now. The only thing that bugged me, that roof paint job:dead: . Where about you from anyways?

 

[Gttnutter]

Yeah i know what you mean about the roof, most people have liked it to be honest as it is different, but it shall be going when the weather is better to mask it up and go a plain colour,

I'm in Hertfordshire jct 18 M25 near heathrow etc

 

[Gttnutter]

some dirty pictures, YES it needs a clean

And a cheeky Raider one in for good measure!

 

[Gttnutter]

I'll have to start a projects thread when i start messing about with it so keep your eyes peeled for some changes

 

[Chrisjk]

It's had a good paint job as it was bright orange previously. Loving the raider.

 

[James5_GTT]

Rich, looks good matey leave the roof as it is gives it some individualism loving the green also. Looks like I may be getting a few passenger rides in your car also LOL

I am even thinking about taking the 5 on traffic if I take it this year otherwise it will the zafira GSI on track LOL be good on the straights but not so good at the corners as a 5

[Gttnutter]
