    White 197 w/ White Speedlines - Doncaster

    Sure the one I saw had speedlines on it too, no idea about the plate. He clocked me/my car as he drove past too.

    Cheers, I'll look into that and see how much he wants for half litre and a litre of paint.

    Paint in Doncaster area.

    I just want somewhere to buy the paint from really. However if there was somewhere reasonable that didn't cost the earth, then maybe I'd look into that. However after a few bad jobs I currently trust myself more than most garages.

    Is that buying paint or them actually spraying it, as I'm gonna do it myself.

Seen somewhere in Pontefract on the net and one place in Bentley, but can anyone reccomend me somewhere to get some paint matched and...

    Worrying squeal/screech from engine bay.

    It must have been the water. Had another look under there and took it around the block. Think I'll get it checked soon anyway as it's made me paranoid.

    Worrying squeal/screech from engine bay.

    I was thinking that after reading another thread. I had just done the bonnet and chucked water over it, hmm.

    Worrying squeal/screech from engine bay.

    Just been washing my car, moved it over from the other side of the road and everything was fine. Then I started washing it and had to move it back slightly as someone was changing a tyre in front of my car and as I did I got a kind of screech or squeal lasting a few seconds and I turned the car...

    clio 172 brake problems!! please help asap.

    No idea tbf, but you'd be better off posting it in here: http://www.cliosport.net/forum/forumdisplay.php?77-Suspension-Brakes-Wheels-amp-Tyres and doing a search to see if anyone else has posted similar. People might also be a bit slow to reply today as it's the French Car Show and many will be...

    I love my 182!!!!!

    I often have to drive one of a few Pug vans at work (Boxer, Bipper, Expert) and used to drive an older VW Caddy on occasions and jumping back into the 182 after driving those really makes you appreciate it more. I wasn't even impressed by a 09 plate TDCI Focus Titanium my manager has when I...

    What have you done to your car today ???

    Painted the spare wheel in rover stone grey, after the idiots at the place I had the rear quarter repaired ages ago managed to paint it something looking more like a blue than grey (long long story).

    immaculate looking RB Pontefract asda.

    9am this morning in Asda car park in Pontefract. 05 plate, looked really clean and unspoilt.

    Well that went well...

    This. Then it's up to you really. If you want to remain in a 172/182 then you've already got one that needs an engine(providing your car is ok apart from the engine). Whether you spend more money on the car rather than another 172/182 matters not, because that money is gone. What matters is that...

    First time painter, advice needed.

    Am I correct in assuming that both the anthracite and BG colours are 2k paints only? :S

    First time painter, advice needed.

    Cheers. My compressor is quite small, almost unused. From what I've read it'll do panels no problem but would struggle with a full car, which is fine by me. However I'm wondering about some kind of filter for water in the air as I don't think its currently got one or would that not really be an...

    First time painter, advice needed.

    Hello. I'm eventually going to paint my bumper but for now I'd starting on an alloy. I've done bits of painting on old cars before with aerosols (basically bits of bodging), but never with a spray gun and compressor (which I now have). So basically to get started I realise I need to sand/strip...

    clio 182 22mpg??

    Where do you drive it, for how long etc? Mine is pretty terrible in short runs in town of around 1.5miles to 2miles as it never properly gets warmed up. Just changed my Lambda and it's improved slightly but not a lot, mid 20's at the moment (was lower 20's at best, only done a week or so of it...

    Alloy refurb

    The new paint needs more than scotching off though, its quite hideous. I'd imagine it'll need a bit of a sand at least.

    Alloy refurb

    Rather than start my own thread: I have an alloy that had a terrible paint job by a company who repaired the rear quarter on my car. They offered to paint it so I could use it as a spare as I was provided with a new wheel as part of the repair (long long story). They painted it what I can only...

    Front Splitter

    TBH whilst I slightly preferred a Cup splitter (one I paid £110 for) I didn't like how brittle it was, as one brush with a curb and it was in three pieces. Skoda one is much more flexible and much much cheaper, I'd not buy another Cup one even if it was half the price.

    Whats wrong with your car right now??

    *it went through an MOT Needs some front discs and pads on. Advisory on the failure sheet for the discs, but I haven't done them yet. The tester who has just and eventually passed it got quite arsey that I hadn't done them yet (he didn't take the first MOT) saying how if I'd took it to a garage...

    182 cup rear wheel bearing

    Dont even try it, it's just not worth it. I had bush puller, sockets etc on the case and a bit heat and the centre bit of the bearing would not even budge. Apparently many of the cheaper bearings are made of chocolate anyway. *also and I'm not sure how true this is: *you can get genuine...

    Whats wrong with your car right now??

    It's got gear oil all over it after doing the nearside bottom ball joint for MOT and the driveshaft coming out and it needs another litre or so in. Need to do driverside CV boot clip (jubilee clip, just done the nearside). Exhaust needs lining up a bit better after I bodged the hangers. I just...
