My PH1 172

[Little Richie]

After my AX decided that it want to short and almost catch fire a few weeks ago I decided that I couldn't warrant putting any more money in to it and that it was time to get a new car.

After um-ing and ah-ing for a while Matt (Bezza4) subtly planted seeds for a hot hatch after which I decided on a 172.

I've been driving it for 3 weeks now and have enjoyed every minute of it And, without driving one, I can say i'm happy with my decision to go for a PH1 over a PH2.

It went in to Yozzasport/JWA on Tuesday for a major service and both belt changes as there was no evidence of them being done previously and the only advisory I came away with was the rear brakes being low but useable until it's next service. (Must say thanks to them for a great and friendly service - cheers guys)

Any and all comments/suggestions welcome

Cheers,
Mike

Nice ride height. Not a fan of exhaust tho tbh....

Cheers for the comments.

Not sure what it's been lowered on, all I know is that they were 25% lowering springs.

With regards to the exhaust; I quite like it at the moment, but then my bank balance won't allow me to dislike it

Plus there a couple of things (Drivers side fog light, a few paint chips) that I want to get sorted before I replace working items.

No, it came from Bromsgrove. It is a very nice upgrade from the AX
