[J o n]

clean as hell, how much you pay?

[Martin]

Looks good mate.....apart from the steering wheel lol

[16v_russ]

just over 2k mate

[J o n]

absolute bargain! bar the dodgy handling I really am loving the 172, not as fun or direct as the Williams, but it's better in different ways... namely reliability for me!

[16v_russ]

lol true matey! although i like the handling,its nice having a car i can change diection by the throttle again :)

[Taylor]

wow thats cheap!!!! i payed 4.6k for mine!

[16v_russ]

whats ur's like matey?

[Taylor]

same as jons but better lol

[16v_russ]

ooh fisty cuffs :wink:

[Taylor]

tbf its absolubtly imaculate, its low milage, full service history etc etc etc

its pretty much show room condition, how come yours was so chaep

[16v_russ]

not sure really mate,it was just out of tax,so had to taax it,and the n/s window didnt work (£50 quid = new reg and moyor all fine now :) )
its got a few lil dings and scratches on it but nothing too bad,front has a few stone chips,it used to be a company car so i think its spent most its life on the motorway

fingers crossed tho and iv done 1k in it so far and she been brill

Always had a soft spot for mk1's - Test drove one many moons ago and liked it a lot.

I'd have an exclusive though if I was getting one... that green and those wheels 8)
