The PH1 172 Appreciation Thread.

@Pekes25 Excellent pics and great looking ph1

@Chi What is the pink one all about :S

 

[Chi]

Lol I always fancied a flamer and pink was all I could find

 

[Jekyll]

But you've already got a trophy

 

[Chi]

It was the wheels I really wanted

 

[Cookson]

Sold to Rob? (Mitch1503 or something?)

Yeah there was 90 something Iceberg ph1's. Mines iceberg and its nice to know that there's not many in that colour in ph1 form.

Seriously? When I was looking at Ph1's I wanted titanium and could only find bergs, it's like no one wanted that colour

@numbers_ is this taken at Cornwall Park in Auckland?
I lived in New Zealand for 3 years and I am coming down in January again good to see there are some that have made it down to there!!!

Now it seems it's the titaniums which seem to be the silver ones that come up for sale.

Iceberg ph1's: 99

Yes it was, good spotting! It's weird down here. I've only seen one other 172 and one 182, yet 3 V6's

Thought so!!! So what your saying is V6's are cheaper because there are more of them!! I have seen a few Japanese imported 172's but with 15in wheels which look rubbish!

Just having a quick cuppa on break and my car is parked outside the tea room window so I took a quick pic.

Cup spoiler defo finishes off the lines on these. Standard ones look poo and the trophy ones look too angular IMO.

Hi, just done a write up on Babette, my Burd's 172 Exclusive.

Its been off the road since April this year due to clutch issues, and just came back yesterday.

I was sceptical when we got her, but they really are cracking little cars

 

[plees]

Needs splitter so bad though Mark! Such a nice car, chalk & cheese et all that!

This has just reminded me I need to go and see VW about a cupra splitter for mine!

All these pics make me want to clean up my ph1 and just not track it

Maybe in the new year but I can't be doing no scuffs like my old 182, which has put me off buying one.

Would be good to have a pic shoot in New year soon with chanlk 'n' cheese.

Clean track car? Its possible!

 

[sburrell93]

It'll be getting used as my practice car for using a machine polisher anyway so we'll see. I'll get back to you after my first track day though [emoji23]

 

[StuOwen86]

I'm really beginning to like the PH1, even though my track 172 is my first proper little hot hatch (had a mk4 R32 when I was 20 but it wasn't exactly little lol) now I'm 28 and bought my 127 cup for track I think damn I missed out lol

 

[Chi]

Love the bloody things...

 

[dmallett]

I have a love for them too @Chi !

 

[Chi]

Just picked my flamer up, missed it first time round and love it with the Willy wheels

 

[Daz_RT_04]

[Chi]
