Haha! Does anyone 'buy' parkers? I just flicked through it in the newsagents like everyone else! I reckon your numbers are about where I was thinking - how do Parkers get away with being so random?!?!?!?
Cambelt done as have all service items. That sounds pretty realistic to me - I was thinking put her up at a shade under £5000 and take first offer I'm happy with.

Hi all, first post on here.... been a member on pistonheads.com and a few of those guys recommended this place now that I am a 172 owner, looks like a decent forum.
Anyway, just picked up an ex-company 172, 53 plate (Oct 2003), black, FSH, new exhaust, tyres (Contis), pads & discs all round...
