@Waitey Quality garage/man-cave going on there!

Ahh sounds great fun but I've just moved back down to Brum. @RenaultVirgin unfortunately I'll need removing from your Yorkshire hit-list but I'll keep an eye on what's happening in case I can make something next time I'm up North!

Amazing! If you leak where it's gonna make its track debut I think you'll have quite a crowd! Sent from my GT-I9505 using Tapatalk

Last thing this evening I excitedly took the old girl for a drive to get fuel and supplies for tomorrow with the GoPro suction-cupped to strategic locations - see attached for some lovely Miltek roar! [EDIT - it seems instagram has completely bollocksed the sound on that video - you get the idea...

The last week or so has seen me go a little mad with power (having some spare money due to tax rebate and a bit of time on my hands) and getting a few big jobs out the way. With a debut track outing for me and the car hastily booked for Blyton Park on 24th May, the race was on to get the car...

First overdue update since Winter, amongst a house move and all the crap weather, not much work on the car until April. Since then, she's had fresh discs and pads all round (HC with redstuff on front, OE on rear) Due partly to the rusted over calipers and partly to my lack of mechanical...

I'm not around that weekend unfortunately! I'll pose the question in a track discussion thread though, thanks!

Hi guys, anyone on here looking at doing Blyton Park on the 24th May? I can see a few clios on the roster already. I'm eyeing it up as my first track day experience having pickup up my 182 late last year. Having tinkered and repaired all (well most of) the worn-out and rusty bits, I'm looking...

Yeah not managed to get to a meet yet, that'll defo be on the agenda for this year. Spend some quality time with other 'sad car men' as my girlfriend would put it Sent from my HTC Desire 820 using Tapatalk

It was quite clogged up with crap yes, but having thought about it further, I think the cause was this: I loosened off the slam panel to get the fuel rail cover off easier when doing an oil filter change. When reattching the slam panel, it was screwed in slightly to one side (there's a tiny...

Had an issue recently with the bonnet catch, it was sitting higher than usual and wouldn't shut properly without me leaving something heavy on the release catch: Having read a thread on here with someone having similar issues, I removed all the catch mechanism from the bonnet, along with...

Hi all, Been lurking on this forum for a couple of months now, decided to finally start a thread for my Arctic Blue FF 182. Picked up the car from a private seller over in Pontefract back in November, paid a fair price given its mileage (~70k) and the crucial belts and timing done in Aug 15 on...

Cheers for the heads up on that! I've managed to source a second hand cat from a user on here, so hopefully fitting up week after next. It's just gotta get through MOT in dec then might go down the decat route. State of current cat just for everyone's entertainment: Only bought the car in...

If it ever had, it's long worn away so defo getting stripped down and starting again! Sent from my HTC Desire 820 using Tapatalk

Won't end up looking like this then! Whoever installed this one last time around forgot the springs and the joints suffered! Sent from my HTC Desire 820 using Tapatalk
