Lacey's 172 FF

[Lacey]

Thought I may as well introduce my car to you all...

Its had a few issues, mainly new tappets were needed after 1 day of ownership. Then there were small niggly things of no working courtesy lights, no working radio, curbed alloys mad: )

I had to buy this clio, due to what I did to my previous car... it was a dare that went quite wrong

So I paid for that mistake... but now I own this...........

Plans are to get the wheels refurbed (haz ), anthracite, cosmetic changes mainly, lower 40mm.

Oh and fix the annoying misfire.

 

[Hazza]

Love ur Mini's cosmetic work! lol....

Look forward to meeting you Lacey at the Ally Pally meet

 

[Rage]

It was a good idea at the time. I thought Early Learning Centre paint would be a good choice, but where it got hot on the bonnet, it decided to stay... meguiars paint restorer and 2 o clock in the morning seemed to do the job in the end.

[Tigger]

Paint came off, only ever so slightly stained by the pink paint. But not really noticeable. It got part exchanged for the clio in the end. It was knackered though, needed new gearbox, clutch and steering rack.

A lot... I took it down southend on a Saturday night, so there was an incredible amount of chavs, tbf, my car fit right in. I had my mate with e in the passenger seat, he was hiding the whole time we were there. Good times.
