Couple of new motors...

[Ant1]

Have a couple of new motors on the way to keep me going for a bit.

Owned many 172s back in the day and was offered this, 34k 1 owner. Paid deposit and collect in a few weeks.

I loved the R26R but it was too much money for what it was so just put a deposit down on this. All the right mods, covered 31k and pretty mint throughout. Has slight coolant leak which I have requested to be sorted before I take away. Only one pic lol, loveeee the colour.

Still have a 3rd car to sort but thats not due until may.

Awesome

Lol you will soon have more cars than a car garage. Look like great buys. I'm sure they will look even better when you start working them.

Really excited over the Megan. Can't remember what a 172 feels like to drive but it will look mint lowered on a set of Turinis.

That exclusive will be worth more to someone standard surely.
Both very nice clean looking cars.

Tidy. Did wonder why you asked about coilovers the other day.

What’s the Megane spec

I will keep the standard parts but I will make my mind up when it's on the drive.

What’s the Megane spec

Usual.

Forge intercooler with pipework
Open induction kit
Full turbo back defatted exhaust
Remap
Lowering springs
Rear spacers
DS2500 pads all round

Feels as quick at the R. Exhaust fitted after remap so will get the map checked to make sure it maximises the flow and that it's running leaner.

Nice. Ballpark what did you pay? Only ask as I’ve been offered a red one with 64k that needs belts and pretty standard.

Holding out for a mapped one with a few mods tbh.

More than the average matey. 7.5k which reflects mileage and condition.

Okie dokie cheers. Did think it would be the top end due to the condition/Miles.

 

[Mr Plums]

What happened to the white evo 400 that you were looking at?

:smile:

The good ones do pop up from time to time, I might have paid over the odds, dunno tbh as there is nothing to compare against currently. I was taken back by the condition, the yellow in the sun is out f**king standing.

2 cars > 1 car

 

[imprezaworks]

It’s only money

Not ready until May. Still on it

 

[yeecup]

[JamesBryan]

Is that the Scarab Green Ph1 i saw being detailed on Facebook?

 

[Ant1]

Yes the one on Facebook via R-Sports.

 

[yeecup]

steve certainly seems to fnd them! bought my iceberg silver ph1 off him a few years back, was a great car.

Would love a Cup in the same condition as I owned three of them originally. Given up trying to find one.

Excellent!!

Gone and no regrets.

Fair play fella! After all the time, effort & money you'd put into it, I'd have thought you'd have wanted to hang on to it.

Even though it will be all good, I lost faith in it. The whole job getting it back on the road was a c**t from the start and I don't want to go through it again.

 

[Ant1]

Two more pics of the Meg.

[CrippsCorner]

Best colour for sure. Is it just me or does it seem to have quite a large wheel gap? I walk past one every day but maybe that one's lowered.

 

[Ant1]

Pics taken before it was lowered

 

[182_steve]

Two great buys there, the Megane looks fantastic but I really like that phase 1, I too saw the detailing photos on facebook and thought it looks great then! Re the Turini's and lowering, absolutely! Love an exclusive but not the wheels and nothing that can't easily be put back
