Back in the game... With an Exclusive!

[ryan ellis]

After 6 months of being car-less, I'm back in the game with my 4th 172. Wanted something a little different and ended up convincing myself that I prefer the ph1, so yesterday I ventured down to Reading from Edinburgh and bought Exclusive no. 144. It's sitting a little low for my liking but it's on coilovers so that's easily changed... Also, it's got the KTEC super sport, which is just a bit loud for my taste so that might be coming off.

Ideally I'd like to find a set of BBS exclusive alloys, but not in a great rush.

Here's a quick pic after I parked up at work this morning.

It's good to be back!

And as you can see in the attached thumbnail, it can even be driven upside down *shakes head at windows PC at work*

Just get those wheels refurbed in gold, job done!

FLOL, I knew there had to be something brilliant I was missing about the 172 Exclusive (besides the OAP colour interior and not-to-my-taste-wheels )

Nice mate, very nice.

Gold on green always.

Yeah, it doesn't look right.

looks good on those wheels i reckon, although a little low. has coilovers though so easily fixed

 

[Wrighty.]

that is a bit low bet that's a nightmare to drive at the moment! Would look awesome on some gold Williams wheels as above. Get some more pictures up it looks like it could be a tidy one ( from that one side lol )

This car used to belong to my best mate in Edinburgh!! Glad to see it's still alive and kicking (can I buy your exclusive alloys if you still have them??)

re: wheels... gonna wait til I've curbed them a few times and then make my mind up!

Will get some more pics when (IF) we have a nice sunny day, this is Scotland after all!
Wrighty. It's actually not as bad as you might think- speed bumps have to be treated a little differently, but the ride is pretty forgiving

Nice mate, very nice.
