Theres a fair few people like them and loads of people have had issues with them, Speak to Maz she had no end of trouble with them.

Yeah if they're on the 4th try, they are either completely useless or the balancing machine they are using is way out of calibration.

Try another garage that does tyres.

Matty if you open the door, its the J/L shaped plastic trim on the door, make sure all the clips are on properly, make sure none are broke.

PMSL^^ Was thinking he looks like hes just soiled himself or hes really going for it.

On a side note, Jesus are you serious? 300 Miles for an MOT?

Bloody hell, thats quick alright. Hasn't even got the ST bodykit or anything, imagine seeing that take off at a set of traffic lights lol.

You bought a 182 for MPG.... Are YOU joking ?

MOT centres don't check them because they can't check, could possibly be a failure if they where excessively tinted. But what about the back street garages that don't know about manufacturers privacy tints etc.

Taken from DVLA/VOSA website... Tinted Windows Tinted windows are not included in the MOT test, but the Vehicle and Operator Services Agency (VOSA) have started roadside checks to make sure tinted windows follow the Road Vehicle (Construction & Use) Regulations. These specify the minimum levels...

Racing Blue 182 with stripes & tintred rear windows M1 - about junction 32, going North. Also 172 FF M1 near Leicester about 4.30am - looked silver

Go through where the bonnet cable goes through, just tweak the grommit if you have to.

Go in and ask if its got traction control

Re: URGENT HELP!!! Clutch is f**ked! In a nutshell, it goes from your clutch pedal, through the bulkhead, round the engine and joins your release arm at the bell housing on the gearbox. Get a mate to work the pedal, whilst you look under the bonnet, see if the arm moves in and out. Ie, if the...

Right are you on about the 2 bolts holding the strut in the hub? As in these... If you've removed one the hub sort of puts all its weight on the other bolt if you like. Push the strut away from you and wiggle/pull the bolt at the same time, should come out. If its seized in, lube it, then...

Whereabouts in Warwickshire are you? Are you sure your not tightening it instead of undoing it? Sorry.

Re: URGENT HELP!!! Clutch is f**ked! Clutch cable snapped more than likely, common on valvers. Could even be your pedal mechanism at fault but less likely. Get a genuine clutch cable though whatever you do.

I might be wrong, but I'm sure I've seen an external filter on a Mk2 1.2 8v with the external filter, could be wrong though.

Thats what the rim protectors for, not an MOT failure if its damaged that bit - its just serving its purpose.

Yeah was gonna say the same. Good turnout aswell, these racings blues common as folk now. On a side note, I was under the impression Fred Dibnah was dead?

Can you not masking tape around it and just spray it? Sorry thought you said back one*

Yes, as Gordon said, cheap tyres are noticeably noisier than a decent set. They can also become noisey if the tyres out of shape, too flat, or if the treads start to lift on one edge.

I wouldn't try to fit a 1.2 filter to a 1.4/1.5/1.6/2.0 - one types a cartridge, the others so small you could eat one.

Unless your competent and got a lot of patience I wouldn't try it to be honest - on axle stands in the garage, or on the drive that is. You'll need a few mates when your ready to lift it out aswell. They're tight alright, but its possible. Box out the top. Can't really set it up wrong as such...

Try another dealership mate or get a local garage to give you a 2nd opinion.

I'd use it as a backup tyre as you say, aslong as there is no cord showing, or has damaged more than the alloy protector area. The size you need will be on the tyre itself.

If the cars clearly a lot quicker, who gives a fcuk about figures on a graph?

That'll be an exterior tank one for that price Daz.

How many Racing Blues where there in the end, and whos who with them? 2 a penny nowadays, rarararar Edit- Car looked good Russ aswell
