Took it for thrash down the backroads...was mint before as my mate i co own the car with is OCD about keeping it clean...I'm not lol

Bought our (share it with a mate) 172 for £400 off an agency driver at work, 78k belts were a year off due, exhaust was falling off, so replaced it gave it a suspension refresh and it was good to go. We've gone further on track mods since, but looks like we lucked out...

Apologies for any vagueness...just put a new gearbox in my 182 and theres a pipe that runs from the box across the bulkhead past the battery and into the innerwing, but I can't see where it goes, any ideas?

Theres a company on ebay selling new boxes for a 197/200 for £354 delivered, found it when I was looking for my 182, shame the box doesn't fit that!

Will make an ad up at the weekend £700 without the 2118's £950 with, ain't got time to break, will chuck a set of phase 1 OZ's in just need tyres.. £500 for a box on top and you've got a solid car...still drives very well.

He's from Stoke, he's had hundreds (really) of Fords, Escorts mk1 & 2, RS's, cossies etc over the years loves the car but fancies a change

It's even better now, and its got the correct Michelin pilots rather than paradas as in the pics

Yeah as it should, he is super-anal about his cars!

I bet those wheels are egg-shaped, just like mine! :(

Thanks for the responses guys...some good points raised there. I don't really see the need for them but it's mainly for the wife we've got three kids and last year she got stuck about 200 yards away from home and believe me pushing a buggy in deep snow and trying to stop a toddler from slipping...

Had a good search on here about all season tyres, can't find a great deal so I am asking the question: Has anyone run an all season tyre? Most of the reviews say they aren't as good as a dedicated snow tyre but these Uniroyals get a good review, looking to buy them so we can get off our estate...

Running H&R coilovers on the front with std shocks and springs on the back, drives well but looks STUPID. No money to fix cos of kids birthdays/DIY/impending Xmas bills :(

I have a high miler (130k) and its a great car but I'm not too bothered about the body work (not the best) I only paid £1700. For that cash I would buy a trophy with 70k ish on it, least the residuals would be a bit better.
