    Disconnecting battery for storage

    I just disconnect the negative lead and leave the car as is. Then a few days before you want to fire it up again, stick a charger on it to make sure it’s topped up. A good battery shouldn’t go flat flat if it’s not connected to anything.

    Advice - Looking to buy a RB 182

    I think you’re underselling that tbh. I’d be asking for £5995 for that all day long. In fact I’d probably start it at £6495.

    Something very satisfying about new premium rubber on freshly powder coated rims… And fitting them was a nause. I only fit big ballon tyres and they’re easy. These stupid little cotton reels were hard work. 😂

    Which is why I just send them away to be done now. I don’t have the time or the patience for it. Unless someone is paying me. 😂

    Mate I don’t think I’ll be doing any more sadly. I’ve got the RB to do next and I think I’m done with Renaults after that sadly. Just far too expensive now to get them anywhere near a decent standard. And that’s if you can even get the parts. (Apart from the Mk1, that’s going nowhere)

    ***How much is it worth?***

    I paid considerably more than the asking price. Seller was 100% honest in the description and I was 100% fair with my price. I’ve never ripped anyone off in the 20 years I’ve been doing this and I don’t intend to start now. (I couldn’t resist taking it round the block despite it being nowhere...

    Recommendations for dry fast road tyres?

    If you only use it only on dry sunny days, you can’t really go wrong with Nankang NS2R’s. Not much cop on track as they do get hot quickly, but you’ll never get that hot on the road.

    Potential new owner advice sought

    As a car itself I would prefer a Mk2 but as a daily I think I’d probably choose a Mk3. Mk2’s are rusty now, parts are getting harder and harder to get and if you’re anything like me you’ll just drove it like a dickhead everywhere. 😂 The Mk3 is a bit more civilised, more comfy and I think I’m...
