Keep seeing a 54` plate 182 parked around the corner from work (outside goodridge brake hoses building). Has a silver ktr decal on Lh side of boot.
Did follow me on way into work the other day.
Anybody on here?
Whilst out working on Monday I spotted a very clean 182 (trophy I think) parked on a driveway in Exminster, around the corner from the Morgan garage with a private plate and "cliosport" decal in rear window.
Nice example and you must have far too much spare time to clean it to that standard!
I have a similar problem with car feeling abit unstable under heavy braking although I think I have an issue with the left rear as there seems to be an area at the edge of my disc that stays rusted colour. Discs and pads are all new so can only think its piston related.
I've got a noise coming from the rear of my 172 and now thinking its got something to do with the ktr stealth that's fitted to the car.
I first thought it was a rear wheel bearing so got both changed as well as discs but still have a noise.
The rear Exhaust mount has also been replaced.
I have...
Tonite about 5.45 drove past a red and a blue 182 just parked up near seafront in dawlish.
Did give a toot but not sure if it was anybody from on here.
Yea that's what I thought. But it did seem to have some kind of splitter kit on it and did go quite well for a standard Adam but I can't see the point in Vauxhall making it tbh.
I think Machine Mart do a few different models & sizes, might be worth a look.
Think they were quite well priced if I remember correctly, tho not sure of they had the micro-fibre inner.
I personally wouldn't have one as I think they look abit pants but a few weeks back on the way home from work I spotted a red Vauxhall Adam with a VXR badge on the boot and had a bit of a play and I did end up shooting straight past him after only half throttling mu 172.
I've had a quick look...
Cupman29 - I had it mot'd at a Halfords Autocentre as it was the only place I could book it in at such short notice (mot is up today) and they won't fit aftermarket parts apparently. So will get it sorted at another local garage and take it back in for a 're-test' within 10 days they allow me...
I've just had an mot failure on a cracked front spring and advisory on corroded rears so I've decided to replace them with some eibachs or cooksports.
However... I'm going to be ordering them tonite but need them fitted a.s.a.p to get the car 're-tested' and so I can drive to work!
I've got a...
Just about to sort out my membership.... :)
Found rear brakes (mintex) with bearings already pressed for £67 with pads.
Gonna try and lube up throttle cable as I'm pretty sure it works the same as a mtb brake/gear cable with getting dry etc and running poorly. (Cycle Mechanic by trade)
Got a...
The PH1 is a X reg
Silver
Ktr Stealth cat back
Aluminium bonnet
Shift light model
All other standard spec as far as I'm aware.
The car has so many receipts with it and has been really well looked after mechanically, just needs a few bits doing on body work but nothing major.
Main bits to sort...
Just wondering if a newer boot button will fit my ph1?
Any extra bits ill need apart from the button and surround?
Or do I have to replace the whole boot?! (Seems too much effort for just the button & surround)
Cheers

Hi all,
Just purchased my first clio after owning various cars over the years.
I've joined the forum for advice and knowledge for bits that may crop up from time to time.
The Clio I've just purchased has a cliosport.net decal in rear window so I assume the cars previous owner/owners were...
