I got all excited thinking you were going to day you'd bought the one from the auto express article. And then it's a pink one😒😂. There was a red one at a meet the other year and they look much better in the metal. I didn't realise they were that rare!

I think the GR bumper looks worse than the standard corolla one.

It's not boring mate, my most common search is rust treatment now😂.

Yeah I think it's getting to the point where buyers need to be checking for rust on mk2's unfortunately. And where the advice was budget for a suspension refresh maybe now it should be budget for rust treatment.

True, and I bet there's plenty of (RB taxed😆) ones that have more hidden woes than this has and sell for good money. Maybe it time buyers start to inspect the hidden areas more closely.

Wtf happened to the climate panel? And honestly, carbon dipped parts on a £6k car just don't cut it imo.

Shiny on the outside but maybe not so good below. Nobody is perfect though and I don't think anyone can be blamed for the exhaust falling apart.

Could be.

Lucky that back box didn't take the bumper off while making its escape! There's something about the cup spoiler that doesn't look right to me 🤔. Can't put my finger on what it is though, it just seem to stand out as not right🤷‍♂️. F1's will be a great improvement and its surprising how many...

I'd advertise it on here first. Good condition ones are asking £3k+ these days and I think if they are good they will sell for good money.

I'm not sure if Vcheck will give a build date but they are a trader on here and definatly trustworthy with your info. @Arnie maybe able to advise if he's still around.

Shame there's no paperwork with it but still better to save it from the scrappy than let it be stripped.

Paid in personal services then😉😂. Is there any history of the belts being changed in its life before the failure? If that was the original belt it had done well!

C'mon, tell what you paid for it. If she was going to scrap it itv was definitely very very good for your wallet!

@Nik care to share May with us?

I'm pretty sure you'll be OK for clearence with them for most 4 pots that usually make it onto a clio.

@T9 0LLE if I recall correctly your Monaco was a bloody good price at the time. I also recall saying you were mad to sell it🤣. Are you after a certain colour or would any good condition one fill the void?

Tried and tested seems like a good route to follow. What wheels you go for could affect your choice though.

Yep thread title needs fixing. Meg looks nice, clio looked better 😂.

No way an 08 182 would pass emissions. Euro regs changed in 2006 so it wouldn't have survived past its first mot. Was it a converted campus by any chance?

Original water pump will have done well to last this long. Can't hurt to change it though.

An 06 pb has to be as rare as 182's get. I wonder how that one came to be as I doubt the colour was available to order late in 05 when production of the regular 182 was winding down.

Is it silver by any chance? All the 06 plate ones will have been made in 05 and just sat unsold. Most of the ones I've seen are silver which was seen as the least desirable colour (god knows why as they look smart imo) and the 197 was available on a 06 plate.

Spotted this on the old socials. Autotrader are giving away an electric car a month starting with a Tesla model 3in May. Just sign up with your secondary email to avoid all the spam and good luck 👍...

Uh oh, parts cannon alert! 😂

Nah, £2k min. You'd have to be buying a right shitter to be paying around a grand for a 172 these days. It looks tidy enough and with fresh belts on it already that's a big plus point. The wheels are s**t though 😂.

The old girl is looking great Mark👍. Just shows you can never stop looking after them now they are getting on a bit.

Nice car Phteve👍. Wasn't it a white ph2 200t edc non 220 trophy that bounced off the nurburgring armco and was then for sale at some car supermarket? I'm sure you ran it through vcheck though before bruying it.
