The PH1 172 Appreciation Thread.

[Stu.]

Been rocking some ultraleggeras and rc6's for a week or 2. First wash yesterday 😅 these motors never fail to be great fun!

Coffee earlier with the family in the flamer

Love a flamer ph1

Me too, it's a new purchase to run alongside (hopefully, all being well) my titanium, always wanted a flamer Ph1

 

[Sukimimus31]

Mine, from Spain !!

 

[Stu.]

Fitted these seats to my mates Flamer Ph1. Recaro Trendlines retrimmed with OE material, 6 sets of seat covers to get enough usable material for them! They look ace. Could well be a worlds first?

Also fitted a dark blue flocked dash, Pics make it look bright! but its very dark in person And fits in well.

 

[Stefan.]

Was going ace until the flocked dash. Looks out of place/wrong colour used imo

The treadlines look amazing and very well done.

RIP X283 BDB
Sent it a little to hard this afternoon and a rod appears to have exited the block. Unsure on the cause but will get in about it at some point when its getting stripped 😅 It was fun whilst it lasted 💪

[Coops Mk1]

sorry missed this, about 120 quid including return postage iirc

 

[Nafoff]

This memory popped up on my facebook so thought it would be funny to share...

Finally back on the road after keeping it in storage over the winter, didn't want to risk driving it on the world's worst winter roads that we have in the Lakes. Feels amazing to be back out in it, especially seeing it alongside my most recent purchase.

Good to see a sibling of mine still on the road! Must’ve been the same batch.

We'll have to get a picture of them together at some point, don't think you're too far north of me. Funnily enough I was talking to one of the guys in EuroCarParts in Carlisle last year and said he'd chatted with you about your Clio, made me laugh when he showed me how close the plates were.

Yeah that would be great sometime. I’m on the Mull of Kintyre so a bit of a drive but quite often in Glasgow area as well. Was that Euan by any chance? I think he mentioned that to me actually. Small world

Oh wow that is a bit of a trek away, but it's still do-able. To be honest I can't remember his name but it most likely was, would be a weird coincidence otherwise haha

 

[arg_carra]

Not the best photo but the first time these two have seen the light of day in a while. Due to delays with a new daily one will be getting used quite a bit over summer, I just can’t decide which one!

Grabbed a few pics of the titanium after a long overdue wash

 

[172PH1]

Anyone else get a really bad draught from the little vent below the headlight adjuster switch?

 

[Robj]

This is mine passed on to me by my son. Still going strong,

 

[Kenich.]

 

[Stefan.]

Looks clean!

 

[Martin_172]

Few pics of the titanium from the last couple of weeks, might have to sell in the not to distant future, it's between this and the flamer or both, don't really want to let go of either if I can help it, will see what happens!

 

[Cookson]

Ten years ago I bought this one.

I'm sure I sold it on here, but last MOTd in 2015

 

[gez 172]

@mintno1 is that Land Rover Series behind anything to do with you?!

 

[Coops Mk1]

Been without MOT since 2015 @Cookson so probably dead

 

[mintno1]

Unfortunately not, not sure who’s it is but it isn’t far from where we live, it’s often there covered up, not sure if I have seen it move recently

 

[Martin_172]

A well deserved wash today!
