Me too, need to stretch its legs instead of just doing short journeys to work and back etc.

@Namod182 Looks good. Where'd you get the totally blank plate from?

Wish I had the money spare, lovely car.

What's the sort of price difference between ITB'ing a Clio and Turbo'ing?

Used Prima Amigo by hand on my old A3. Looked brilliant with a couple of layers of Vics wax over it but I couldn't feel my arm afterwards!

You said they needed doing again anyway ;)

Although probably not helpful now, when a garage does any work on mine, I always ask them to keep the old parts just for peace of mind that they aren't taking the piss.

Nice one, sound good. Did you use wet and dry rather than the 'discs' that are in the kit?

As said, the one you've done looks loads better, need to do this on my Bean as one is about 100 times worse than the other. What kit did you use?

Nice that....

I do like an MK5, would have one tomorrow if they were a bit cheaper. R32 rear? Look so much better than the rear of a standard GTI. Also if you're looking to get it mapped, get in touch with Mick at Unicorn Motor Developments, what he doesn't know about custom mapping VAG's isn't worth knowing.

Although I just pulled it in a mile away from the kerb, I was actually well within the lay by I'll have you know haha. Your car has way too many nipples LOL. Nice to meet you too mate and thanks again for taking me out! Soon as I can properly measure the struts with the wheel off, I think I'm...

Drop it slightly and that'll be perfect!

Doesn't look as bad as I thought actually. Wouldn't have them on mine personally mind you.

Imagine 18's on a Clio haha.

As @Addicted has said, check the online MOT's to see if there's been anything dodgy going on with the mileage.

I likey.

If you're going to turn up in the BM then no, it'll only make me jealous!

Was just going to go to the gym so nope. Drop me a PM and we'll sort something if that's ok?

Still trying to make my mind up between AP's and the Billys. Need a ride in yours @dann2707!

£995?! Faacckkinnggg eelllll.

As above. Pass it everyday on my way to work. Monaco 172 with Turinis. Anyone on here?

Finally got a 182, needs a few bits doing but look forward to some meets. Wouldn't mind a rolling road meet to see what sort of power it's on atm.

So much horsepower they wash the car behinds windscreen instead? Haha. Looking for some blanks for mine and there's some genuine ones on eBay for £35 which I don't know if I can justify paying for a couple of bits of plastic! Think mine's blowing as well at the moment, it sounds a lot 'raspier'...

Titanium 182's always look so 'fresh' when they're clean and new badge finishes the rear off nicely. Will be keeping an eye on this thread :)

Forgive me if I've missed it in this thread or if it's a stupid question, but when you fit the washer blanks, do you block the pipes/have them facing the ground/don't spray the windscreen with your lights on?

Hi All, Got my Bean a few week back now and it is due the belts doing. Was wanting to take it down to Mick at Diamond but it may be a bit too far, wondering if there's any decent and trustworthy places near to home (Leeds) that I can take it? Thanks

Could be a load of different things. Instead of clutching at straws and replacing parts which could be in good working order, get it scanned. Mine was flashing, lumpy idle, really low on power and sounded like a tractor. Got it scanned, turned out it was one of the injectors, replaced it and...

600mm or 750mm best?

I won't be keeping it in the car so it doesn't matter whether it folds or not so a good breaker bar could be a better option. Any suggestions?
