got the polish out due to the sun shining and me having a day off work:





treated it to a new set of toyo t1-r's today aswell, as people who have seen the car may admit the old tyres were a little worn.........

anyway, this is all!

how is this car broster? what's it like in acceleration compared to say 2.0 xe / CTR ... whats everyday handling like, taken it on track yet?

I'm considering selling my 106 gti and getting a 172 cup - but think it won't be much / any quicker than mine now.

this is standard engine wise, excluding a pipercross panal filter.

i like it, seems faster than a c20xe corsa, handles really well, not had it on track yet tho.

great car to drive every day, comfyish aswell, im on eibach springs.

as for a 106, off the line there isnt much in it, but once moving it starts to pull away.

id have one over a 106gti.....

monster, yeah this is slower than the corsa used ot be, but it has a full interior and climate control

robin, trying not to tune this....... already worked out how much it will cost for throttle bodies...... and its not expencive

Nice.

Is that a 172 or 182? Can't tell the difference apart from the exhaust!
