I had my tyres changed last week, for some eagles, and can't help to notice how sharp the handling is, and it can actually be quite unnerving - I have just come up the duely from work, and I lifted off the noise pedal just after overtaking somebody, also going around a bend, felt the back want...
...yeah £40, sounds cheap enough to me, i met a guy in newton abbot whos just started his own booth for cars, wheels etc - with 25 years body repair experience.

To put BEHIND (not replace) the top and lower grilles I've seen full grille replacements and they all look siht, and am after a subtle look by hiding it behind the grille.
I can get hold of mesh at work, lots of different sizes from about 60 - 500 microns, spray it yellow.

On the way back from work today my car hit the 60k mark, so I detoured to a renault dealership for a couple bits, got some excellium 5w40, sump plug washer and an oil filter. Yesterday I read someones guide on here about what bits I'd need (thank god, I didnt know about the plug washer :D).

Been like it since I had it, for the first minute or 2 I get a whining noise coming from around the top. (almost sounds like a supercharger) but obviosly not!
Could this possibly be the camshaft bearings?

Bought her 3 weeks ago, and have never loved driving a car so much!
I know you have all seen the 172 cup, but I fancied upping some pics!
Dealer wanted 4k, gave him 3.5k and a 106 :) 57k on the clock. A good deal by many accounts!
I'm proud of the rear window sticker even though I don't know...
Drove past my house while I was giving my car a well deserved polish
I don't think you spotted me or my car on a downhill driveway off the road
Girl driver :cool:
Hi all, it's been bugging me for a while now, and I can't find em anywhere. The genuine 172 Cup embellishment for my door pillars, the '172' is missing off of my drivers door and just says 'cup' :/
Any ideas where I can get the set from?!
Cheers John
Hi all, I have recently bought a beautiful 2002 model 172 cup and am very pleased with it, my previous 'quickish' cars before this were a bmw e36 325is , and an st24 mundane'o, and I have to say that I'm very impressed with the cup, nails those 2 cars for handling, and acceleration.
I'll cut...
