Spotted coming off the m6 at junction 11 Saturday. @Coops Mk1? Car looked absolutely awesome!!

Sounds good that, very rally car!

That actually is a good rep, apart from the exhaust. I was only saying the other day that making race reps was the thing years ago, but you don’t see it now. And with wrapping and cheaper produced body kits it would easy and probably look awesome!

Some really nice updates there mate. Seats look amazing!! love the effort on the steering wheel, if only bits were easy to get over there, could’ve got a cheap seat and used the Alcantara and leather off that for it, but amazing result anyway.

Is that a Citroen dispatch van? Nice!!

Absolutely amazing and it looked lovely before. That paint finish is something else!

I purchased some paint off the same seller recently on eBay, it took a while to be sent but arrived eventually. On a side note didn’t m.a.d used to be on here? I’m sure they used to be a member or trader.

The gearknob can be removed but it requires cutting off with a hacksaw usually (on the two I’ve done!) Replacing the gearstick can also been done but requires removing the old unit from below and replacing with the new one. I managed to do it on my 182 as I removed the decat which gave room...

£99 from Apple so not as cheap as iPhone battery replacement but from my experience worth it, iPad batteries aren’t as easy as iPhone batteries to replace.

Saw a rover tomcat turbo in red earlier this morning and then a escort rs turbo series 1 just. No pictures as was driving at the time. Rover went well!

Thankfully it’s not for me, I hate them with a passion. I’m trying to steer towards other cars but not sure it’s working yet!

Thank you. I’ll have a look when I view tomorrow but at least it’s something I should be able to manage.

Thanks for replying guys, I’m sorry, I just noticed I didn’t put what car. Nissan Juke. @bashracing would that be outer tie rod, as in track rod?

Looking at a car (not a Clio) which has the following advisory two years in a row and I’m trying to work out what it would be. Can anyone help please? offside front inner suspension rod ball joint has slight play (5.3.4 (a) (!) ) Any ideas what that would be please (in layman’s terms)? Is it...

I drove from bugibba to sliema on my wedding day in a hired Suzuki alto and that was scary enough the prospect of losing €150! Although it helps if you drive like everyone else, see a gap and go!

Welcome. Nice to see someone from Malta on here. Car certainly looks battered by the roads, not surprising really. Your certainly in the right place for help and inspiration.

I’ve had two cheap 172’s. Both required little bits. First one was better than the second one but still great. As said above if belts have been done and there’s not loads of rust etc then go for it. It’s a Clio at the end of the day so apart from belts most bits are cheap and easy to do even for...

Wow, this is awesome @RustyMojo . Love your commitment to getting a prefect 182. Shame seeing how much work you did on the other one. Good luck with this one, does look immaculate and with your level of work any flaws will be perfected well. Out of interest what does the other one need now to...
