I can be mechanically inept most of the time but that actually makes me feel quite good about myself! Good work that man.

Congrats on the news Dave!!

On the flipside, most people break itb'd clio's after 3-6 months of building them anyway, so its nothing to be surprised about really ;)

Re: "Mechanically Inept" Dave.'s TDF'd ITB & Cammed 182

It will not be broken, certainly not by me anyway, i love it too much!

£6000, we all know its worth more in bits, but would break my heart if i did it. I certainly wouldn't be selling, but we have been trying to start a family for ages and that has to be my priority. Woo hoo my tackle works!

Going to look at a Mazda 6 MPS later :evil:

Should buy a second car, Fabia VRS or something as a "present" for the mum to be, leaving you with the 182 :) Everyone wins!

Congratulations mate, if you're looking at a fast good looking 4 door for the family look at the new shape Leon cupra.

My mrs bought one and I love driving it. Lovely noise from the engine too and returns about 26mpg around town.
