just bought a 172 mk2 woohoo

[Craig]

went for a drive to see this clio yesterday afternoon and ended up buying there and then and im going to pick it up this weekend and i cant wait. its in mint condition 53 reg with 6501 miles on the clock in monaco blue if thats what its called. just one thing before he started it i looked like he but something just above the cd player and turned it. could it be a imobilser. but apart from that it looks great. will post pics up at the weekend.

cheers

All there is above the CD player is a couple of vents and a button for the hazards and to unlock all the doors. Nothing interesting. Hope you enjoy your new car

 

[Craig]

i must of just been tired then .

cheers

Monaco Blue is a lovely colour - especially in the sun. Sounds like youre going to have a mint car there. Enjoy it!

Do you live in the middle of Bahgdad?!? You must be able to get it down less than that? I found Admiral/Elephant to be by far the best for me (also 21 with a 172).

 

[Craig]

ive tried alot of places and they were roughly the same quote. oh and i live in manchester

 

[steamywindows]

im paying 1400quid with 2yrs no claims on a 182 so it seems about right try greenlight insurance its good

 

[Craig]

right people here are some pictures of my new baby that i got a weekend and what a beast it is. its a hell of a lot qucker than my 1.6 and a hell of alot smoother

Looks lovely, er... just like mine, but a bit higher.

Dont mod the exterior!

 

[Chris1.4RT]

Lovely 172, but you want shot for that exhaust on the 1.6.

Dont do that to the 172. (and leave them lexus lights on the 1.6 too)
