Do 13mm rears not rub?

Looks great.

I have 16mm with no rub mate but mines not overly low

 

[KitsonRis]

I think I have 15mm sat in my spares box that I need to fit to my rears, I hope they don't rub!!!

Also +1 on the multiple Ph1's for different purposes, although I would be happy with two:
Daily drive / standard
Stripped out track machine to go hunting R26's and the like.

Mine is neither of these lol.

 

[Snails]

Enjoying being back in a phase 1. It needs 4 wheels refurbished and the bonnet/bumper could do with being repainted, but I am pleased with it overall.

 

[Stu.]

Told a porkie its actually 16 on the rear, and nah not yet lol.

Same as me, 20mm up front

 

[DannyR]

My rear axle is bent to f**k! I have 15mm and drivers side sticks out further than the other by a good 5mm!

 

[JD_RS172]

I've seen that before and the guy had a normal disc and a cup disc on, he also had different length wheel bolts and an abs fault and still didn't twig

Nice to see another iceberg ph1. Seeing this makes me miss mine! Lol

 

[Bluebeard]

I'm after an exclusive if any ph1 lovers know of one for sale??

£1500-ish to spend.

At a push I'll have another silver one.

Saw a nice one in the bay the other day but can't remember the price. I'll try find it

 

[Jekyll]

There was one on ebay recently Dan, although im not sure if its still there.

My doner car to swap engines with was an exclusive that then got broke for parts so thats 171 left at most!

Edit: Me and JD might be thinking of the same one.

 

[JD_RS172]

Yeah I think we could be mate! Was it a pretty tidy one?

 

[Jekyll]

This "might" be the one although i dont remember it being broken?

http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/clio-172-...817?pt=LH_DefaultDomain_3&hash=item1c50955b59

Might be worth dropping him a message?

This looks clean enough for the price. A few niggles but nothing major:

Too much money for me mate. I'm loathed to spend £1500 as it is. I'll only use it for commuting.

 

[Mr R.]

Is that painted, powder coated or polished?

Hate seeing clean Ph1's, I wish I could have two, well three, actually four.

Mint
Track slag/stripped
Supercharged
Turbo'd

I hate mint ph1s too. [emoji23]

 

[Jekyll]

Me too Scott.... Well ones that say "mint" when in fact they mean "needs a bit of work to get it mint!"

I should have!

Mint in my eyes and mint in others are normally miles apart.. [emoji23]

 

[JD_RS172]

Mint in my eyes and mint in others are normally miles apart.. [emoji23]

With physical evidence to support the claim [emoji23]
