Pic request - Flame Red V silver

[DRFC]

Well ive been looking for a 172 now for a couple of months. I really want a flame red one - because in my opinion it is by far the best colour. BUT it seems like they are like rocking horse s**t.

Which has tempted me onto silver . (i dont want blue - cos ive had a car that colour already - and black needs constant washing)

So, should i hold out for a Flamer - or just go and buy one of the millions of silver ones?

Show me your pics people - and let the debate RAGE!

flame all day long mate. bide your time or youll regret it imo. one will turn up

 

[brisa4984]

silver is as common as you can get

 

[Beef-Mc]

I'm sure Ali will be along with photo's of his old pink bus, was a good looking car.

 

[brisa4984]

yeah that was a cracker

 

[brisa4984]

flame red in the sun is lush. The only colour that looks better is racing blue imo.

 

[Sarah]

Little video as well as it looks a lot better than in the pics.

I always wanted flame red but like you are finding not the easy to find, nothing wrong with silver tho had mine for 3 and a half years doesnt take much looking after and always looks good and clean, apart from after a cs meet down some back roads lol

P.S Nice pics sarah, least you dont have to travel for to get good scenery

Sorry, but a fan of purple cars, don't look too bad tho, and just cuz silver is so popular, it wouldn' make me buy a colour I didn't like. Mondial Blue would have been one I would choose along side Iceberg Silver.....

flame red FTW baby!

 

[DebV6]

Flame Red is the best 172 colour by far! I'd hold out for one to come along. But Iceberg is a nice silver, it has a blueish tint to it.

Gareths was a real minter but i like Ali's pink bus and DJW John's

If a flamer is what you want hold out you WILL regret it otherwise

 

[DRFC]

im still feeling flame red! - but im getting impatient. Im liking Gareths tho.

oh and just for Gaz i feel the urge to post this -

Some pics of my time with the red 172, wish I still had it at times!

Standard bar a splitter:

Some 182 rims and a trophy spoiler added:

Then some H&R's added:

Which resulted in:

Then a stealth exhaust:

Then tried a wee track day:

On the way it had its problems too!!!!

All in all it has been the best car I have had to date in terms of learning things and how fun it was!

A few great photos imo at its best!!

And one last photo the day it went:

 

[matty J]
