my monaco blue 172...

[DanS]

I've owned it almost 4 months now and finally managed to give it a decent clean yesterday and get some pics...

Since i've owned it it's had a full major service and full cambelt and aux belt kit inc pulleys, fitted a standard renault cd head unit as it had a tape player before! and i've sorted a few annoying rattles!

Plans for the not too distant future are - 4 new contisports all round, wheels need a re furb, possibly clear side repeaters, get rid of a few small dings, then get a pc and get the exterior looking nice!

thats it, its staying totally standard otherwise!

let us know what you think!

 

[Bluebeard]

Thats some new tarmac you got there brother!!

Good on you keeping it standard, looking very tidy already!

 

[Schweppy]

Looks good mate. Defo needs clear side indicators and although you will be following the crowd, some silvervisions will do the trick too.

Looks in good condition.... nice

nice car...but you need to go at it with a clay-bar...to bring out the paints true colour...

 

[DebV6]

Looks really nice, lovely colour

 

[B16DOE]

[Rich]

[Christopher]

[DanS]

cheers guys, going to look into claying it, dont really know much about how to do it yet!

 

[172blue]

The best colour defo, clear side repeaters will finish that off beautifully.

 

[Reyes]

Nice looking example there

 

[Marky_]

Nice car and as fastDan said; lovely tarmac!

 

[JR]

very nice, how many miles has it done fella ?

 

[Matt.J]

I didn't like monaco blue at first but the more of it I see the more it grows on me. There's something very subtle about the colour i think, sort of executive looking ? Perhaps I'm just talking crap but yours looks very very nice. As said... clear side repeaters and job done

 

[Tigger]

Gogeous colour

Best of luck with it - treat it well

 

[YorkshireDaz]

Nice car mate you should get yourself to the next Yorkshire meet!

Would you like to be put on the PM lists for the meets?

 

[DanS]

cheers all.
I'm well pleased with it, bit better than my old 1.6 astra I had before!
dont mean to sound dumb but what are silvervisions?
justin-172, it had 43,000 on it when I picked it up so still fairly low for the year!
Daz81 yeah stick me on the list, cheers!

Really nice motor, if it was mine I would just drop it some. Done

 

[Rhino172]

very nice...welcome to club monaco lol

as said, clay it a get some good layers of polish/wax on there to bring out the true monaco deep blue shine...

silvervisions are clear indicator bulbs, looses the orangeness from the front and rear lights...cf splitter would look good too...hang on...i'm just describing my own car lol!

something like this...(can't miss a pic posting oppertunity )
