The PH1 172 Appreciation Thread.

[theduck]

Just put mine up for sale, feel a little bit sad inside, definitely going to miss it more than the 197.

 

[ChrisR]

I had so much fun in that car, glad it's still going strong

 

[TinchoRS]

 

[Bobby.]

What a lovely flamer!

 

[Timmsy]

Second that motion! lovely flamer!

 

[Coops Mk1]

agreed, but the pictures hurt my brain lol!

 

[Bobby.]

Yeah I don't think all effects are needed.

 

[Mr R.]

Its only the affects that make that colour tbh. Ive seen a flamer in the fleash and in my eyes its nothing special.

Id rather have a sliver or black PH1.

 

[Harpham]

^ Flamers are amazing in the sun.

 

[Mr R.]

So is Titanium.

 

[Timmsy]

So is Titanium.

When they are clean

Mine looks terrible at the moment.... more effort required

 

[Mr R.]

Mines always clean, its all tucked up for winter.

 

[Bobby.]

Your just biased Scott. from an unbiased point of view I can confirm flame red is better

 

[Mr R.]

No.

No its not, sorry you are wrong. Its the colour car a girl would own just like a yellow car. (sorry everyone with a sunflower)

Give me a black PH1 over both of them colours anyday. :approve:

 

[theduck]

Best colours in order of bestest to worstest

1) Odyssey Blue - Flame Red - Sunflower Yellow
2) Pearl Black
3) Titanium silver - Iceburg Silver

 

[Coops Mk1]

its like naples in the mk1, a bit pants but can look okay with the right light, but loads of other colours i'd rather have, like pretty much all of them!lol!

 

[Coops Mk1]

even iceberg

 

[Norris1]

Would love an iceberg

 

[Willliams]

Titanium trumps all colours for a ph1 IMO, followed by:
Odyssey
Peal Black
Scarab Green, Flame Red and Sunflower
Iceberg

Flamers look good, but the blue interior looks hideous with the red paint. :S

Titanium wins all.

Although I'm partial to a sunflower.

 

[Harpham]

Although I'm partial to a sunflower.

That's because it's the best colour.

 

[Djw John]

Wow, its impressive that so many people can be wrong in such a short period of time

This man knows.​

I see what you did there

 

[theduck]

how anyone can list silver above any of the colours I will never know...

 

[Narf]

My thoughts exactly.

 

[TinchoRS]

In Argentina came only three colors


Flame Red - Sunflower Yellow - Pearl Black


Here the three together

 

[Narf]

Awesome! Now if they had oddyessy blue In there too they would be the best colours!!

 

[Bobby.]

All of them look stunning!

 

[Kelv]

I dare say its been covered before, but does anyone know how many of each colour were sold within the UK market?
namely black?

 

[Timmsy]

covered many times but here is the link anyway

http://www.renaultsport.co.uk/roadcars/heritage

 

[Stu.]

119 black ones iirc. Cant mind the link to the site that shows all the numbers

 

[Jekyll]

Surprised that iceberg was 3rd rarest colour on ph1s. Then it jumps to highest colour on ph2's.

 

[Bobby.]

117 in black.

I've never seen an iceberg ph1 in the flesh before the one I just bought, I had an iceberg mk1 RT years back, but that doesn't count!lol! I have however seen loads in phase 2 flavour

 

[Kelv]

117 in black.

good stuff, cheers Bobby.
