Well after being on CS for 3 and abit years I've finally got hold of a 172 albeit its not actually mine and legally belongs to my GF its more likely to be my little project that she uses on the weekends etc
The car is question is 2002 Flamer, formally owned by chris (aka eightyeightyMPH on here) has been very well treated during his ownership and looked after properly which made a change from most of the cars i looked at or enquired about during my search for the right car.
It came with a folder full of receipts and most important a Cambelt receipt from Mr BTM so i felt much more confident in purchasing this car compared to others id enquired about. Car is currently on 57,000 and feels awesome to drive I've kinda forgot what its like to have a nice 2.0 n/a to rev the b****cks off as I've been spoilt by turbos and chargers somewhat in my last few cars!
Car currently sits on eibach sportlines and seems to swallow up the bumps pretty well i was worried they would be crashy but them seem okay for the moment it also has a K-tec super stealth exhaust and chris fitted some 3/4 plates which look much better then the standard size!
Anyway heres the pics
first night in the snow
Representing
and the main thing that needs sorting is the drivers side which has a fist size dent in the rear quarter and a dent in the door.
I've been already been and booked it into the body shop for tomorrow so its having to have the whole drivers side sorted along with the front bumper resprayed to fix a few marks on that.
Future plans are just a skoda splitter, cup spoiler and if i can convince the other half some silver Turinis or 2118's
All in were both very happy with the purchase and can now see what all the fuss is about!
