99k Ph1 172, Cup Springs and a clean

[nathanH]

Car failed its MOT the other month on 2 broken springs, so I picked up some cup springs from Icarus for £25, tar very much. Back seems a little lower and the ride does feel ever so slightly stiffer... but thats probably a placebo.

I also got round to fitting my new passanger seat I bought back in Jan after I had seat airbag go off about 7 months ago! Also gave her a clean and its just clocked over 99k.

Awful pics as it was getting dark.

Looks smart mate, but seem to be sitting awfully high..? I suppose it'll settle a bit, too.

Does look nice. New steering wheel?

 

[davesport172]

looks great for the miles mate, steering wheel looks fooked!!

 

[nathanH]

yeah shes not bad, few scuffs on the body work. Steering wheel was like it when I purchased it 3 years ago.

I wouldn't have thought used springs would need time to settle?

Height looks about right for standard

Tidy but that steering wheel is shocking!

 

[Willliams]

Very tidy Nathan! The steering wheel does let the very good looking interior down though doesn't it.
Wouldn't mind a re-trim for mine, or possibly a different wheel and keep mine to one side as its stilol in pretty good condition.

Looks fantastic, Steering wheel needs a change though imo. Lets the interior down loads.
