Yeah, me too. My 200 is covered now, had a double take this morning at the salt wearing, mud splattered, seagull-turd adorned filthy little slut as I got to work.

I wouldn’t say they’re a lot of money really. Yes AG or LY with recaros and low miles are but a sub 100k mile 200 in white is what, £4K or so? They look great in white IMO as it shows off the curves and wide wings. That’s where my sweet spot would be for value for money. I always wanted a...

Seems reasonable money for Pearl white & recaros, mileage I guess. Reckon one of the traders will snap that up and £8995 it before the week’s out.

Anyone else watching this chap’s vids? Seems to be buying up as much cool stuff as he can get his hands on. Have a look at his other vids, must have spent millions recently (2x RS200’s, group B Audi, ken block’s car, WRC stuff, cosworths and modern Lambo specials etc)

I think about the megane thing but they don’t Rev much. I like the whole high rpm thing on track, makes it feel more fun. Can’t dispute the megs are fast though. Can be on the edge in my 172 and a Meg comes past all composed and quiet. But are they having more fun, look more chilled to me on...

Watching the prices on FB groups I reckon colours of AG or LY (and currently PW) add more like £3k to the ‘asking’ price of a 200. I’d love to know why the 200 feels like it does. I can’t see it’s just weight as it’s more the way the engine feels in the mid range plus shouldn’t the gearing...

I really like my 200 but they are pretty different in the power delivery to a 172/182 aren’t they. Handling feels better to me and I prefer the looks, I daily the 200 but I drive my 172 once a week and it feels so grunty compared to the 200. My 200 made 201bhp (custom map and few mods) so...

Doesn’t the 182 pump just have one plastic outlet on top? If you have a second pipe with a bolt blanking it, maybe you have the wrong pump?

Get genuine magnetti injectors, the cheap ones will not work & will cause you to keep chasing the fault (as you think you’ve ‘fixed’ the injectors)

The old 200 looking a bit grim

I have the snap on set and the extra 3ft long one too. They are a must have in the trade or serious diy. I did prefer the older handle style though but ended up warrantying the lot for the newer handle like those. Prob a bit safer for your hands

Yeah, it’s weird. I did google it after the post and it does seem to be a ‘thing’ You know if you put it on a tight bolt and pull the trigger it just locks up (as it would if the fastener was too tight) well now it just slips. Appears to be a little pin that turns in a circular motion that...

Well the old Milwaukee ratchet didn’t last long. Last job of the year she shat herself, the manual side is still strong but pull the trigger and it just slips. My work mate said his did it and he was going to send it back and it magically self healed. Said it still does it now and then. Bit...

What’s thought to be up with the car for it to be breaking up at high revs? Just intrigued as really it should be something sortable? Assuming the mechanics are sound… plugs (are they gapped down low enough) coil packs, trigger for coil packs (looking at wiring to them and the ecu triggers)...

christ, just how sexy is she?!

Poxy auto correct… Nut!

Did it work well? Or we talking fresh but demo

Anyone got one of the cheap (£180-£200) hand held induction heaters? Wondering if they’re any good considering the huge price of the remote wand ones.

Bet it won’t be far off a grand when the U.K. finally get them.

torque test channel. Did see the latest 1/2” snap on was king of power again but my dealer won’t be stocking them until he’s managed to shift all the current shitters. No idea how he sells any snap on as everyone is going Milwaukee due to the price we can get them for in the centre isle at...

Should be at my advanced age (and prev having left the trade after being mobile for years on fleet & lorries). Somehow now find myself running someone else’s show whilst still being flat out in the workshop at the same time. This time 3 years ago I was leaving the trade!

Come aaaawn… I’m into Milwaukee for the poke vs price but they don’t hold a candle to any snap on tools as far as feel, finish and longevity goes! We’ve got a lot of Milwaukee & snap on between us at work and the Milwaukee looks absolutely battered despite being much younger. It’s DIY stuff...

Guess it depends how much you use them. My mate’s one isn’t half that age and it flops around like an old onion bag. I’ve seen mechanics on YT using M18 with little cradles for the batteries with straps on to keep them tight.

Imagine that, go to shoot someone and the clip falls out!

I’ve had a ribbing for liking snap on on this thread but the M12 drill goes way harder than the compact 14.4v snap on drill if that counts for anything. Same as my m12 3/8 impact, despite the 12v vs 14.4v snap on 3/8 it has a lot more poke. An m12 drill with a 4.0a or 6.0a battery is just a...

If I were you I’d go for the m12 range mate. Being a snap on and dewalt man you’d probably hate the 18v battery on a drill. I’m looking at getting a couple of 18v (high torque 1/2” & mid torque) but I know I’m going to be hating the battery (as I use my work mates 18v impact and the battery...

Did you also use an OE injector?

Wheres either for sale for that price?

You’ll need a 6ah battery if you want a chance of taking wheels off. Mine’s night n day different on 6ah to 2h Don’t rely on it doing so though unless the nuts are clean and recently torqued properly. Mine rarely touches a customer’s nuts. Yes they’ll undo xyz torque but a corroded wheel...
