Same here I might do a drive through see if there is anything nice.

quite possible, but with that many people going there is bound to be some decent cars?

Is anyone planning on going to the M.C.M meet in Taunton at Currys? 153 people are listed as going already with another 300 interested!

resprayed the front two alloys, and while cleaning up the front struts, etc discovered my car has Goodridge braided brake lines!

Which signal splitter do I need to utilize my factory aerial for DAB (this one?http://www.dabonwheels.co.uk/FM-AM_to_FM-AM-DAB_aerial_converter.html ) ? I have a this DAB radio in my car http://www.kenwood-electronics.co.uk/car/rec/dab/KDC-BT73DAB/

Replaced the broken seat recline lever, cleaned the throttle body, did a final polish on the headlamps, gave it a wash and ordered stuff to do an oil change and a new MAP sensor (does not fit very tight in the manifold)

Getting around 33 on B roads on the way to work, lots of varying speeds due to slow lorries and otherwise slow, inconsistent drivers in front of me. 10 miles each way.

Do I get the signal splitter for amplified or non-amplified factory aerial?

wet sanded and polished headlamps and cleaned up engine bay some, pulled the fuel rail cover off and cleaned that good/started to polish it.

After driving it for a few days it DOES idle around 1100 when fully warmed up (temp gauge dead in the middle) Is there any other way to verify if it has cams? The car feels completely different (much faster, throatier and responsive) than my stock 182 did.

I will bring out the new 182 to the first one of the year! The Genesis is in storage for the winter. The GT86 guys are normally the most talkative for some reason.

What clay bar and polish are you going to order? The meguiar's clay and quick detailer you can get at Halfords is pretty good.

Clayed, polished and waxed the new 182 today. And replaced the LED side markers with factory 501's.

Thanks, I forgot about that one, and all I really need is the elbow!

mmmm tasty retrimmed wheel! Runs nice, drives good, sounds mean. Will post up some more pics after I get it clay barred and waxed

Hey, thanks everyone for the encouraging words and advice. I now have a BG 182 again. Spent the afternoon cleaning! Two new rainsport 3's on the front. Cambelt/dephaser/aux belt/tensioner was done in May (second time), but unfortuantely between late 2012 and 2015 there is a lack of records...

Looks like it is happening, after work on Friday he is taking it to the tyre place to have a new rainsport 3 put on then bringing it to my house! Cannot wait to start cleaning and polishing haha.

Yeah I see him literally every day at work, so I would not sell him a dodgy car and I would hope for the same in return.

yeah I think I want to do it, I just have to get the car before the guy decides to thrash it to a mm of its life lol.

yeah it runs nice, and has all the necessary things done. Things I would have to sort with are not really a big deal -DAB windscreen antennae needs remounted (new windscreen) it has a Kenwood DAB/Bluetooth headunit, original CD player included along with CD changer -a couple paint damage areas...

Great, thanks.

Think that car is work £2k or so? Just want to make sure the values of the cars are similar.

update, he said he has two keys lol

no pops and bangs, and I drove it pretty hard the other day, and I listened to him drive off down the road, no pops when shifting or anything.

he basically does not fit in the Clio lol

Took a better look at it tonight, 60mm bolt spacing on the front hubs, newish looking sportline springs, poly dogbone (purple or blue bush by the looks of it) Brakes, etc look good. Only question I have is the idle seems to be just at/right below 1k when warm (temp gauge stays dead in the...

I like the 182, and really miss my old one, but the things that Im iffy about are the higher number of owners, it only has one key and lets face it, the interior and overall build quality is not Honda lol.

The problem is there are so many dodgy EP3's being sold for dirt cheap that nobody looks at the nice ones like mine, or they tell me its overpriced, plus the mileage is a HUGE turnoff for most people I have talked to. I am starting to think this might be a no-brainer especially since the clio...

I know this might be biased here but this is what Im looking at: I have a high mileage Civic Type R EP3, my friend just picked up a 04 Clio 182, but he is a rather large guy, so we have been talking about a swap since he fits in my civic well. Frankly the civic is a bit boring to drive, but...

Mate has this one I am thinking about 04 plate BG 182 FF -104k miles, Cam belt, aux belt/tensioner and dephaser pulley done in May with invoice -MOT until June next year, no advisories -Port matched intake, ITG intake (samco hoses and intake hose) supposedly has 197 cams, but I'm not sure as we...
