Just saying Hi!

Bought the car in March. 54K miles, 2 lady owners no mods, fully serviced, FSH, years MOT, new rear discs & pads.

Activities so far -

  • Timing Belt, Aux Belt, Water pump, Dephaser pulley (Ouch!)
  • ITG Air Filter Element
  • New wheel nuts and locking nuts (old ones rusted)
  • New number plates
  • New Bosch Aero Blade wipers
  • New Black Fitted Mats
  • Polish and Wax

Upcoming activities -

  • New Brembo Discs and Pads Front (Wednesday)
  • Alloy refurb (as soon as i can)

Well pleased with the car. Had a modded 172 but it was getting old and got this at a good price. Our other car is a 2013 Nissan 370Z GT

Also a couple of pics of the modded 172 before it (coilovers, strut braces, ventilated / grooved discs, S/S exhaust, induction kit)

It was as mad as a bath full of otters

Mine are black....and ive had "all" the dark colours on various cars. TBH though i think the back / gunmetal / anthracite thing has been done to death.

I think the silver looks fantastic on yours..............

Yes, i like the silver. It has had two lady owners, so as you can imagine - and not at all stereotypical - the wheels have had more hits than the Beatles.

I've a local guy powdercoats so once my current account recovers from the timing belt / dephase pulley spend, it'll be in for that.
