Money is no object...

Car  172 Ph2
Hi all,

New owner of a Monaco Blue 172, I didn't like money anyway.

Fully standard car, just the usual niggles it seems of exhaust mount which I've ordered a Primaracing one. Put it through for a service recently seems in good nick, the CV gaitor O/S needs refitting. After looking at the receipts for the cars history it appears the CV on the O/S has been refitted a number of times in a short space of time, was 3 times in 2 years, so this will be the forth in 3, normal?

It also seems to be a twitchy on the rear when you accelerate/overtake hard, normal driving you don't notice anything, a trait of the car or possible rear suspension issues?

New brakes and discs all round getting fitted at weekend, but all in all seems to run well, for now. :)

I'd go with rear shocks too. Does it skip about when cornering on a bumpy road? Like you're about to "get your drift on" ?
