Newbie from Ayr



  Ph1 172 + 106 GTI
Hello, i'm Stuart from Ayr and i swapped my Saxo VTR for a Phase 1 172 last night. She is on a 2000 with 82200 now on the clock. I have always had a soft spot the Phase 1's, it's the front end. Just looks so good!! Well she is standard apart from a scorpion backbox. She is in good condition but needs a proper clean. Here are some photos...

I like subtle but clean and i do have an slight ocd about cleaning cars. I am going to go to Cambuslang and get a machine polisher to get better results. She will be looking better when i next post up some photos. Hope everyone is well and comments and criticism welcome :)

Welcome along Stuart, looks like a nice example! Titanium really suits the Phase 1's!

loads of Scottish members now!

Thanks lads :) She looks ok but will look better once i have had some time on her. I think she will come up quite well. I do like them in titanium! The saxo was silver as well, hard to get a good shine from but it hides scratches too lol. Will need to fire along to a meet if you have them regularly. From what i have been reading so far, you are a good bunch on here so i think i will enjoy it :) I have signed up to be a member already as i think the guides and that will be quite useful!!

Thanks, i know Liam it's terrible but i know they are famous for it! Going to get it retrimmed, anyone know where does a good job? I was looking at them it will be a good drive up so i might come along and i do love my food. You wouldn't think it though, built like a racing snake lol

Very nice. I love the PH1 Clios as you don't see many of them around these days. One was parked up near the office at work the other day and I had a good look around it. Like you say, give it a good detail and she'll be tip top :)

Adam - I'm from Forehill mate, not far from Morrison's.

C8UER - You don't no, i think they are the best looking as well! A guy i worked with had one but but he ended up binning it :( It was really nice as well.

Liam - Yes haha! She will be good after i valet the inside, badly needs a hoover. Considering taking the seats out because i am that picky but yes after i get it retrimmed she will look 10x better. I have heard it is around £45 to get done.

Ben - Thanks, i will have a search mate
