Hi guys I'm after some advice here. My 182 went into the body shop to have some very light damage to the front end repaired. They called today to say it is all fixed and ready for collection but when they took it on a test drive it would not rev above 3000rpm and it has gone into limp mode...

Whats the max load a 182 boot can take? Im due to pick up a new 2.0 16v engine this weekend and wondering if I can just put it in the boot with the back seats down and scaffold boards across the floor and seats to spread the weight and protect the trim.

I can recommend a place in Devon that have just done a great job of one of my wheels that was very slightly kerbed. They also matched the Anthracite perfectly. Around £50 a wheel depending on how much work they need.

Does anybody know the paint code for the 182 alloys? It seems that Renault dont actually have a code for them. Just getting mine refurbed at the moment so would be good to know...

Yuck, why ruin a perfectly good looking car. The quality doesn't look that great either and the price probably reflects that...

TBH the back seats have never been sat in and it took me a while to notice they were any different...

LOL Yep, yours hasn't got Recaros...

Cool, will check the meet forum...

Yep, she is sexy!

Great idea Marky, didn't think about the local scrappy!!! Now all I need is somewhere to plug a hairdryer in!!

Yes, the seats are what makes it special. Only 40 Black golds with Recaros came out of the factory. You guys are right, probably jealous.

Someone did this to me in a car park, made a 15cm scrape just below the fuel cap. Nobody ever said anything and no note left, I wasn't very happy. This was on my Cav, not the Clio...

Fair enough, I think everyones has their own opinion on the right or wrong thing to have done. I personally feel that if someone calls me an idiot I want to know why they think I am an idiot, just because I clean my cars once a week doesn't make me an idiot. I am sure my neighbour is sat in...

No, I don't go down the pub and acuse people of staring at me. It was a comment her father made and I wanted to know why he thought I was an idiot.

Okay, so I hear what people are saying in that his daughter has just picked up on something he said but if I said to my daughter "look at that idiot cleaning his car" I wouldn't class that as being jokey. Fair enough if he just said "oh look, our neighbours cleaning his car again", I can live...
