Got to replace the driver's side wing mirror - the whole unit including wiring - anyone had any experience with these replacement units...

Saw the 182 this afternoon and the Trophy was last thursday heading towards M25.

Got up this morning to find that someone has ripped the entire driver's side wing mirror off, despite this being on the pavement side and both wing mirrors being folded back. Looks like they actually cut the wires too as the break is extremely clean. :banghead: Anyone know how much this is...

I've had DS2500s on the front of my 182 for a while now. Did my second track day with them the other day and came away from the track with some rumbling from the brakes under heavy application. So, took the pads out the other day and the inner pad(s) on the piston side(s) have edges that seem to...

Heading towards London early this morning...

Saw it there about lunchtime.

Parked up in a square behind the shopping centre. Presume a local as residents parking. Covered in seagull graffiti and an Evo sticker in the back.

Went to Brands today for a trackday on the Indy circuit. Got some second hand 15in Pro Race 1.2s with 888s to try out and was keen to see how they performed. The track was damp and slippy to begin with, but by mid-morning a dry line had been worn in apart from Druids and McLaren, which remained...

Saw three this morning (Monday). Silver ph1 172 on the A23 Northbound. Was lowered. Blue 172 FF southbound on the A23. Then a silver 182 parked in whatisjustis' usual spot by the Texaco. New car?

Little video from one of the Renaultsport sessions back in May this year. The liquid yellow 182 is a Trophy in all but colour - it's a French car fitted with the Sachs dampers, Turinis and Recaros. It had a fancy exhaust as well so probably some other tweaks. Euro trackdays are great because...

Coming along the A23 between the golf course in Earlswood at about 8.30.

An icberg between South Croydon and Purley and a blue one in Hooley both southbound around 6-7pm.

I drove down through Sussex to Beachy Head today to stretch the legs. Some great roads down there, although busy with sightseers sadly. The Beachy Head road is primo, although I saw some skid marks heading into the verge on the corkscrew section. Luckily they were heading in the opposite...

Was heading out of Redhill this afternoon. Looked in my mirrors and what was following me? Only another ruddy inferno 182. What are the chances?

About 9am this morning approaching the roundabout to the north of Redhill on the A23.

I'm sure there are people who find the pedal spacing in the 182 perfect for heal-and-toe work, but I'm not one of them (size 9UK feet). Basically, the accelerator is too low in comparison to the brake pedal. So, I'd been thinking about how to improve things, and after a quick butcher's at the...

While fishing around on ebay a few weeks ago, i came across a pair of Recaro trendline seats with no reserve and a few bids. I kept an eye on it and eventually won the auction. They ended up costing me £145 and £20 for delivery. Bargain i thought, although I has no idea whether they were in good...

Today around lunch time. The one with the M&S on the A23.

Saw it parked up today. Had a quick nosey - looks like a well-sorted example. Plenty of room for the bike without an interior!

Here's a couple of laps from before lunch. Was shadowed by Dan from MSN cars in his 197 Cup, then <ahem> let him through (!!) for a few laps. Oulton was great, but not easy. I particularly found Old Hall (1st corner) and Druids (long right hander) very tricky and somewhat intimidating. Some...

Heading towards Merstham this evening.

Hi, first post for me. Picked up a 182 with cup packs in April and it got its first track outing last Friday at Bedford. It was a great evening and I'd heartily recommend the Renault days to anyone; good value, well marshalled, good manners on track, similarly paced cars and the chance to try...
