How did she look?

Very similar to mine: - Rattles - Listening for new noises and over analysing them - 3 or 4 slight chips on the windscreen - Weird unexplainable noise when I put my foot down, sounds like a hole in the exhaust or something! - Right RS thumb grip thing on the wheel is peeling away slightly

I was only asking myself this question today!! I'm glad I finally know :)

Mine goes to ---- when it hits 35 miles. I usually just switch to the trip meter so I can keep an eye on it. I aim to refuel within 20 miles just in case.

There's some great roads up around Beachy Head, amazing views, and a good pub up there too with (I've heard) good food.

Yes, you get the whole thing.

I would suggesting seeking proper legal advice rather than asking on a forum of car enthusiasts. Seriously, get a lawyer. I think it is unlikely you will be able to return the car and get all of your money back.

I got one recently for £7 from Renault. Piece of piss to fit.

I really hope I don't find something horrible out about my car from this thread.

Numberplate?

Re: Possible new splitter found!! I accidentally screwed mine up a bit by slowly going into a grass verge whilst parking the other day. It took the splitter off two of the screws at the front. It was easy enough to unscrew them and secure the splitter back in place.

Very nice! This is in Tunbridge Wells though by the way :)

Good point, hadn't thought of it like that. Thanks all.

What exactly are the window etchings of? Because I have some etchings on my window, but no alarm.

Admiral.

Ok fair enough, I'll go for new Michelin's all round.

Hi all, My 182 currently has 3 x Michelin Pilot Exalto PE2's which are close to legal tread limit, and a practically brand new budget tyre (Infinity or something). My question is; shall I replace the 3 Michelin's with new Michelin's, and keep the budget (which is on the rear), or shall I...

My 182 doesn't have an alarm, which apparently means it is an import. Although if I am not mistaken it's not a true import, as it was built to be sold in the UK, rather than built and sold abroad and then later imported. I'm a bit confused by it all to be honest.

Please excuse my naivety here, but when you say 'crashy', what do you mean?

But it looks crap. Are you supposed to keep it on all the time?

No, what does it do?

HAHAHA! That is brilliant! I really didn't expect it to roll like that! :D

If you are facing down the hill, putting it in reverse will hold it still. On my old Corsa the handbrake broke so I had to do this all the time until I got it fixed :p

What's that black thing on your bonnet?

Oh, I didn't know that. Oh well, too late now.

No I didn't, the AUX was done fairly recently anyway. I live in a place called Punnetts Town, near Heathfield. But I work in Tunbridge Wells in Kent.

£405 :( It was the cheapest quote within a reasonable distance from my home though. If you were able to do it cheaper, please don't tell me by how much or I might cry ;)

Oh right, thanks for confirming. I'm not really fussed about that as I like pressing the off button on the wheel to turn it off :)

I noticed that when I cleaned my floor mats the other day that the accelerator goes a little further, and almost clicks down an extra notch. Is this what you're calling the kick-down switch? If so, what does it do? Because when my mats are in the car they block the pedal going this far.

I'm kind of talking to myself here now but just on the off chance this helps anyone; replacing the PAS pump has fixed my problem. Thanks
