looks sweet. Munckins??

love the alloys.

 

[Middo]

^ think so! looks very very nice

get rid of those cheap quality prima alloys

 

[DH_GTI]

looks very nice, not to keen on the wheels, ph2 ff172 wheels look mint imo
well done

 

[TheJesus]

'was' munchkins, bought it yesterday, laura's well pleased with it! still not given it death yet, but it drives very nice and is unbelievably clean!

think the alloys are getting changed and a decat will be on there in a few days, it needs flames lol.

and a BIG 'no' to 172 ph2 FF wheels... it wants to look less girly, not more lol. some nice multi spokes should look the business... 15's ideally

 

[Pep]

looks really nice, loving the wheels, really suit it!

 

[Laura]

wheels i think will be replaced with some cup wheels soon
either that or 15s?? undecided yet

 

[Ad]

i like the alloys better than the cup ones... but each to there own.

 

[Dubai182]

Looks really nice Taylor,i'll be after one myself when i'm back in Cheshire in January...you'll have to take me for a spin and you too Jon!

 

[TheJesus]

well Laura can take you out in hers so you can see what a clean minter is like... and I can basically just scare you in mine lol.

does seem to pull really well Laura's does, think an inlet match, headwork and cams would be eventual mods if it were up to me... but it's not thankfully, as i tend to make bad car related decisions lol

 

[Laura]

im toying with the idea of lime green multispokes but not too sure yet got a few things to sell before i can start making too many changes,
de cat is coming soon

 

[TheJesus]

lime green!!! doo eeeet! would look mental, but I think it would look pretty good!

 

[Fred@BTM]

(haven't fitted the braided lines to the rear yet)

they're on!

 

[Clart]

[Lou]

[Ali]

I don't get it...You couldn't get insured on a shagged 205 GTi but get you bought a mod'd 172??? :S

 

[cat171]

I thought it was Munchkins car - I clocked the plate.

It's nice - apart from the wheels, to me they date it loads.

 

[Laura]

no ali couldnt afford to insure a 205 and my clio at the same time, well not so much coulnt afford but refused to pay that much,as you can only use no claims on one car.

but can afford this as its my only car.

hey a 172 and still a teenager... cant be bad lol

cheers for the comments guys n girls, been planning whats going on next today

 

[Christopher]

[TheJesus]

lol @ Joe, yeah we took it to Lyme park to get some pics, unfortunately the roads were covered in s**t, but don't worry, Laura is a cleaning freak when it comes to her cars lol

 

[Laura]
