Luckily I bought mine off a lad I knew of. Still in regular contact and he still helps me out with car and even fitted my wheels for me last night. I think he enjoys working on it more than me lol. Genuine top bloke.
Cheers dude. I love Turinis aswell, anthracite Turinis on AB look epic. I just had to scratch the 2118 itch lol.
Thanks Brett!
Cheers, we need another little picture meet :)
It is on k-tec coilovers mate, which after taking the wheels off need a serious cleaning. They do get slated but for me they do fine. I don't particularly drive it hard anywhere and they aren't too uncomfortable, just abit bouncy. I also can't believe how much comfier the 50 profile tires have...
You wouldn't believe how many people/friends/family say they prefer the old wheels. I think it looks abit more purposeful on the 2118s. Although I am keeping the standard wheels for winter use if they don't sell.
Well, after searching for a long time I finally picked up a set of 2118s off Chris205 on here. Got round to fitting them last night with Dale (d4h182) and to say I'm happy is an understatement. Not the most unique individual wheels but imo no wheels suit the 1*2 better. I got abit picture happy...
That and telling someone who had a 7 year old 182 on 50,000 that had never had its cambelt done that, 'he shouldn't really worry about it because it's only done 50,000 so the belt should be alright for another 20,000.' Muppet.
If it reignites your hope, I paid just over £1000 on my 182 with mods declared when I'd just turned 21, 3 years no claims. Should have been 4 but I cancelled the Mini insurance so I've lost a year!
That was off a comparison website aswell. Quote on a standard car was circa £850.
