Some Snow Pics!

[Martin_172]

Since it was snowing me and a mate thought we would go out for some pics in the snow, pics arnt the best as ive not got a decent camera, hopefully a DSLR soon tho!

First up was a quick wash before we headed up to the snowy hills! (was pretty pointless as the cars were covered in crap by the time we got there!)

Then a short 10 minute run up into the hills and it was like a different world!!...

its a weird one, the 172 is much more of an adreniline (spelling!) rush as its much quicker and still handles awesome but the 1.2 has something fun about it, think its the feeling that your keeping up with something faster in something so slow, it was absolutely planted but the steering feel etc is nothing compaired to the 172, overall the 172 is a much better car! but i miss the 1.2 and am looking at another ex driving school one for a runaround and to make use of my coilovers!

 

[JR]

Looks spot on, any other pics of it ?

The clio looks lunar grey against the snow!

 

[dandycaptain]

Looks like plenty of grip there... the kind of weather that sends the traction control light into spasms the minute you go over 2000rpm lol.

 

[Martin_172]

yeah corsa has PIAA Platinum sidelights (same as my clio) and an HID Kit (just fitted it for him the day before!) and funny enough the HID kit took 10 minutes to fit, sidelights were 45 minutes lol sidelights are a bumper, wing and headlight off job on the ones with facelift headlights!!!

 

[_Kenny_]

guid pics chief.

turinis are too common

knowsit son!

Good pics Martin

 

[Martin_172]

Turinis sound nice but been there done that before so not sure, possibly a change just not a fan of aftermarket so possibly just a refurb!

id give u a hand no problem pal, how is it for room behind the lights on the 197, was simple on his corsa, he got a kit designed for the car so was simple...

Remove old bulb,
replace with new bulb,
then the connector that plugs into the back of the bulb gets plugged into the xenon "box thing" and it has a connector going to the new bulb

 

[Alan]

Space is the factor mate, bumper off job by the looks of it..

 

[Martin_172]
