Looks tidy in the snow mate, sets off the colour nicely - white turinis would look awesome on it ;)
Would lol at Liam - but took me a while to work out what people were on about when I first joined!
Evening all
My 182 is due a service and I was intent on taking it to Birchdown, unfortunately they can't open on a Saturday so it means i'd have to take a day off to head down there (from Manchester)
The service due is a 12,000 mile service, and is the first one since the belts were done...
I had 44mpg (honestly!) on the most boring journey ever a couple of months back*-*M6 was packed, but traffic all moving around 55, then that combined with the average speed traps at 50 too –*gradually came down to around 39 by the end of the 150 mile trip, but for about 2/3 of that it was well...
£80 for what looks like the grille from a disposable bbq?! I'll pass ta…
Get yours sprayed if you're not liking the fading, mine were done in matt black prior to me buying, they look ace
Been a member of the forum for a little while now, so it's about time I said hello. Had to wait a while to get it, but here's my Arctic 182 after a quick wash in the winter sunshine
Used to belong to Curley on here so keeping it in the family so to speak ;)
Based up in...
Any idea how much notice I should take of the warning 'rinse neat product if it comes in to contact with paintwork'?
I've just topped up my washer bottle with a whole bottle of screenwash so it should be a little diluted
Anyone else find that the stuff from Halfords has a tendency to dry...
Gutted for you mate - certainly was a looker! Drove well too, apologies if I'm lumped in with the 'timewaster' crowd - ha, Curley eventually came good and I went with my original deal I made with him :)
Who bought yours in the end?
Anyone got a good link to some decent white LED sidelights that won't go blue? Need to get rid of the normal ones, they look ridiculous next to the xenons!
I'm in the same boat –*had planned to get a coat of 476 on last week, but I dare not put it on for fear of it being a b1tch to get off again in this freezing weather!

Not sure whether it is the cold weather or something is up with the 182. Basically I have noticed that when steering at slow speed, eg parking, there is a crunching noise coming from the front end of the car. It sounds a bit like walking on fresh snow.
Noticed this before the...
Got what looks like a trolley ding in my driver's side rear wheel arch and am hoping to get it taken out at some point in the near future.
The paint hasn't cracked, but it's very noticeable in certain lights…
Can anyone recommend me somewhere in the North West, preferably near Manchester...
Looks good mate - Dave's right about the stripes, they would look better coming down to the bottom of the headlights.
Haha, and I thought you sold that boot net? ;)
Just had a load of stuff through from cleanyourcar.co.uk so will get some pics up of the 182 in it's new home asap
Yeah free replacement. I think the warranty does only apply to the first owner... however in this case it was a part of the notorious dodgy batch so they were happy to replace, didn't even have to ask, just enquired as to how much a new one was and explained what had happened
