Ph1 172 and friends

[DanielJames]

Finally got a new car on tuesday, went out for a good drive in it last night with some mates, here are a few pictures and a video is on the way!

I'll be making a project thread for the clio shortly!

Got a few plans for the car which I'll put in the project thread after I have a good look at it on the weekend (& get underneath it!)

Tints aren't that bad in life bud, iPhone camera doesn't do the car any justice at all!

What's up with the exhausts?

Not a fan of 172s pretending to be 182's, makes it look like a 1.2 rep gone wrong.

They might be for sale soon... not a fan myself but yeah it's a great colour

I had this thought last night actually. I thought people might mistake my car for a 1.2 but then theres no mistaking the noise it makes!

Looks nice but not keen on the exhaust.

Nice engine bay, is that an ITG Maxogen in there?

 

[domjolly]

looks nice mate, although looks like the headlights could do with a real clean down as the plastic looks all discoloured and orange. nice car though

I don't know what it is mate, it looks like a big BMC CDA. Don't know much about ITG filters

Yeah I'm going to buff some Plast-X into them at the weekend and see what's what.

Going to fit my springs too, is it a simple job? Done it before on over cars I presume the Clios aren't too different? hopefully not as bad as the saxo was..

Love the wheels, not so keen on the 182 rear end but it looks well done.

Are the wheels 15's? If so, what are you looking for to replace and PM me when you're selling

All in all, a very tidy car.

 

[Knuckles]

Buy it off here? I'm a big fan of oddesy, looks awesome with a just a wash I kinda like the exhaust

 

[RSteve]

Saw this on saxp mate, as I said, tidy but just needs a bit of lowerage!

Nah it was on Pistonheads. The guy I bought it off had just bought a low mileage RB182 and it had Cliosport stickers so maybe he is a member

 

[ch!ppen]

Saw this on SaxP i think... Looks smart pal. I'm with you on the wheels, i know people rave on about OZ's but i just struggle to like most of them.

 

[andywa]

Looks smart mate. Love the colour. Where did you take the pics?

 

[Kane.]

That is actually the nicest looking ph1 I have seen :approve:
