just got a 172 ph2

[stinka]

.... and im impressed

me and the mrs bought it from matt16v on here an its a total credit to him, immaculate

been out in it yesterday and for a couple of hours this evening and im starting to get the measure of it now

awsome handeling and god it loves to rev, only negative is the crap/notchy gearbox but the more i drive it the more i get used to it

never had a renault before and im just loving this

just had to share this with someone :approve:

i think a remap/inlet/panel filter/exhaust is on the way in the new year, any recommendations for a package ?

thanks

Looks a nice standard example.

cheers mate

ive looked at half a dozen and this looked like its had just rolled off the production line

it did have a viper and a stainless on it but it now standard.... for a bit

i cant belive it had all belts and a major service done 2 weeks ago !!!

and the lad let me have it for £5200, well i bit his hand off as you can imagine especialy when theres a few 52 platers with similar mileage on autotrader for £6500+ as we speak

Looks lovely mate!

 

[stinka]

cheers lads

im totaly loving it

raped the arse off it all day in the wet had some awsome twitchy moments but the handleing is awesome, you have to throw it in insainely to get it to slide, it will understeer on power but its hard to force lift off over steer on roundabouts, even in the wet the rear only came out with big entry speeds and a quick lift and hard flick

my only gripes are the gearbox is a tad notchy and the lack of torque at lower to early midrange, but i feel mods i have planned will overcome this

thanks for the advice and im glad i found this forum as i wouldnt have been pesuaded to take the renault route otherwise

nice one
