My lovely, sexy Inferno 182

[VIICarCare]

Thought I'd get a little thread running for this car. Yes, I've had a few Really love this one though, cannot stop looking at her, even when the bf sometimes drops me off at work I'm waiting for her to go by, superb colour which really suits the full fat alloys.

I had a ff 182 with Recaro's before this, in the 3 months I had her I'd spent best part of £1500, even getting the entire front end resprayed, but I couldn't really click with it, it was nice but she had been smoked in & I just couldn't get rid of the smell!

Anyway, the inferno when I bought her.

I then gave her a good clean up, amazing what a good claying can do

I then had 2 front tyres changed for Proxies. Made a huge difference to the handling, was a little wild before!

Rear number plate lense always a let down.

Next up was the service & aux belt. Decided to upgrade the air filter, discount with my garage

Little interior clean, she's factory fresh

List still to do -

Fit fabia splitter
Replace cracked fog
fit 200 RS badge (not bought yet, awaiting group buy on here)
Snappy re trim (I'm on the list!)

Wish list -

Cooksport springs
Trophy spoiler

Oh, and I need to fit this little lovely :approve: But, first be rude not to polish it some more! Yes, its new but every little helps

Ktr/Janspeed straight threw cat back.

That's all for now!

Love infernos

 

[Stefan.]

Lovely!

like inferno a lot!

 

[VIICarCare]

I think once she's lower a little she will look spot on.

 

[Dan...]

Nice cat! ....oh, the inferno isn't a bad either

 

[VIICarCare]

Ha, little Tigger is lovely! I prefer her over the inferno too

 

[Jack!]

Should've kept the Recaro's from the one you sold, unless they smelt too? Guess you didn't expect to get another RS so soon too...

Looks great though, brilliant paintwork and excellent interior; wish my glovebox aligned that well, the gap on the right side is about twice the gap on the left side.

 

[VIICarCare]

Cheers, no I didn't expectto get another so soon! Got my exhaust fitted today

Sounded awesome on initial start up, then died off a little after a few miles. Induction kit next!?

Need my RS badge & cooksport springs now

 

[George@RTR_Parts]

Nice and clean, as usual with your cars :approve:

[AlD2407]

That's a low mileage car you've got. Mine similar age and smidgen more miles, more commonplace colour (Black Gold)

 

[Ash']

Gee's how many now ?

Looks lovely.

 

[VIICarCare]

[dannydaud]

That looks stunning!

How come all girlfriends or wives arnt into cars like you Dawn,,,,,,,,, life would be so much better

Cheers mate! I'm still sure my hobby is cheaper than any normal woman, shoes, handbags etc

 

[VIICarCare]

Got a few little jobs done. Still need to give her a good machine, like compounding as she is so swirly!

Splitter fitted. Decided to cut it in the middle so the ends are neat

Then removed the RS badge ready for the new style which will replace the Clio badge.

Met up with Ed200 & his lovely arctic.

I also gave the engine bay a little attention, so much I want to do to her!

Coolant bottle now replenished

Aux belt is proving to be a b**ch to replace, so now I am getting the lot done inc cambelt & dephaser within the next month! Cooksports soon too, yay!

Oh & custom wax for her!

 

[Stefan.]

Awesome work!!

Engine bay looks so much better! :approve:

Do miss having a clio Maybe a T some day..

 

[Alastair.]

Looks great Dawn, original battery i spy. Coolant needs topping girl!

 

[VIICarCare]

Cheers peeps! I hate not having a Clio to fettle with, they are good fun

Coolant was topped up after Al

I may tackle the v6's bay over the Easter weekend.

 

[Ed.200]

A few pics from me from when we met up.
Due to my fantastic camera skills in some it looks more red than orange

 

[Snake182]

Looks lovely, Inferno is the colour to have . I had the k-tec exhaust fitted to mine aswell, sounded awesome for 1 mile and then went quite. I assume the baffles have some sort of wax/resin that needs to heat up and bed in. I ordered a de-cat a week after so it sounds nice again. I like my cars loud and raspy.

 

[VIICarCare]

Super piccies Edd!

Yes, mine sounded sexy after fitting, them went quite quiet! Still burbles coming off the accelerator but I'd love an induction kit too. Couldn't deal with the hassel of de cat though.

 

[stuart_s182]

nice car you got there

 

[VIICarCare]

Thanks!

Found my very first RS last night! Had her in 2007, px'd her with only 12k on her. So tempting to buy her back
