Want a lellow one? Thinking of selling it... brought it as a 'fun' car but stupidly drove a VX220 so want to change again!!! lol

Re: ***How much is my car worth?*** Thinking of selling the LY 182 with both cup packs - tried out a VX220 and am hooked!!! Anyway, what do people think is a reasonable market price? It has under 56k covering less than 1000 miles in the last 4 months. Has both cup packs and is generall in...

Cheers Rob, I'll get under it this weekend and have a proper look. It sounds like a rumble/vibration almost like the engine spluttering, although the power delivery is nice and consistent from the engine, just starts to make a noise - does that sound like what yours did? Only really in 1st as...

Just interested Rob, did you change the driveshafts and did that resolve the rumble? Noticed similar symptoms in the 182. It only does (or it is much more noticeable) in first gear, as you say like a rumble/shaking when you floor it. Drive normally seems fine, put some beans down and it...

Why you only looking for standard? G172 on here does Brembo's for a good price and the rears come with the bearings pressed in ready, and they were cheaper than the main dealer prices. Send him a PM.

Not sure about the minimum width for the discs... What is a "serated disc"??? Just go for standard discs or upgrade to Brembos if you are a road user (G172 on here is the best price I found). I've just changed my brakes to Brembo vented (not drilled or grooved - just solid) High Carbons on...

I changed the fluid on mine on Sunday also using the ezebleed kit. I found (on this forum) that the order was Passenger front, drivers front, passenger rear, drivers rear - so did it in that order. The kit works well for me by myself, but then did the manual way, got the wife to pump the...

Cheers Meek - just heard from the powder coaters, they've now got some Anthracite metallic (non RAL) I think - and it looks ok (only seen this photo). Hopefully it will look ok, but may pop up when I am on a conference at the end of may to have a butchers and decide. Anything will be better...

just hammerite, thought it would look better than what was there... brushed it on and it actually smoothed out nicely, no brush marks etc.

Lol I'll let you know if I sell it...!! After a VX220 or Elise perhaps...

would be interested to know people's mileage on their LY clio's... Mine is currently on 55k. I wanted a lower mileage one, but there was literally two about when I was looking, and the other one with 25k on the clock was sold minutes after putting it up for sale on the net! Had sat nav as well...

Got loads of Pics of the R26 here: http://www.flickr.com/photos/59037264@N05/sets/72157625969464064/ Really miss the R26 - was a great car, but can't justify the costs at the moment. Chopped that and my Vectra in for a new Insignia (diesel!!) for day to day use, and just keeping the clio as a...

Bet you won't be doing that again in a hurry!!:o

Well, took a few pictures a few weeks ago before I decided to get rid of the R26. Here is big bro and little bro together, for the last time...
