Anyone know if these are ok for a 182? They seem ok but is 27mm ok for a standard Turini - no spacers http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/TPI-Polarised-Locking-Wheel-Bolt-12x1-50-27L-Taper-Mercedes-fitment-/370747671717?pt=UK_CarsParts_Vehicles_CarParts_SM&hash=item56524884a5
Its a standard 172 and I've always thought they sit a little high. Whats the best way to drop them a tad? Id rather not stiffen the ride too much though I do accept this may be a consequence.
I know knack all about suspensions so please speak slowly.
Hang on...the lad is hardly destroying a Veyron here. He's bought himself a good car for a young lad and is making the best of it. At least hes not just slamming a big exhaust on the back like so many do. Resale value is almost irrelevent when compared to the insurance he is saving on a proper...
I have the KTec stealth on my 172 that is maybe a tiny fraction louder than standard. They do a version for the 182 don't they? Just don't get the SuperSport.
This thread really is a baffling. Just put up a price that you want to recieve. If it doesn't sell then you've priced it too high for the current market. Lower your price and see if you get a bite. Repeat until you have reached your lower limit. Congratulations, you are now a leading expert in...
I know this should be easy. I popped out the glass and unscrewed the metal plate. Then undid the screw that holds the mirror to the car itself. The two plastic halves of the mirror would still not prise apart. Is there something I'm missing here or is more force needed?
You're right Martin. Yet you do see good cars underpriced and some dogs that are up for £4k.
If you know what you're looking for then there are bargains to be had.
Plus if you actively WANT a Titanium then you are in a great position. Always loads about in that colour and always cheaper than...
I drive from Leeds to Liverpool and back most Saturdays. That's about 150 miles and it does about half a talk. The missis has a new Golf TDI and the same journey barely even registers on her fuel gauge. That keeps me awake at night! I get about 34 combined. I guess its not that bad really. The...
I'm looking at selling my 172 for £1900. Mines a black 02 172. Belts done last year, clutch done last year, new sump, new radiator (yesterday), 12 months Mot, 79000miles. Outside is great bar a few kerbs. Inside is perfect bar a couple of marks on the alacantra. 10 previous owners. 3 of those...
I've had a look at them but the better ones do seem quite dear. When you compare it to a top notch 182 at maybe £1500 less(?) I think I'd just go with the cheaper option. £4.5k was maybe my budget for a more reliable, more economic car. For a 182 I'd be looking around £3.5k. I'll keep my eyes...
