The one in Manchester wanted £274. I've had some powdercoated before on the type R for £100 and i wasnt impressed with the quality. £172 all in wasnt too bad i thought :S

172 cup turinis. I got them done for £172inc VAT & tyres swapped over with new valves. Very helpfull chap, ask for Brian.

Before: During: After: Got them powder coated at the Leeds Wheel Specialist. Chuffed to bits with the quality of finish! :D

Whats your tank range on a ITB'd 172? I get about 330 from the standard 182.

The pack leader shoots off into the sunset, jumping amber lights, overtaking on blind corners. Us sensible drivers get left behind Mick... and then lost :D

If this is anything like the previous Cat and Fiddle run, your best putting some fake plates on ;)

You finally got it then! Looks very nice mate :)

Try a small backstreet tyre dealer. I have found the likes of Kwik fit, national tyres & exhaust wont fit anything not supplied by them.

Sorry to hear that Jamie I'll take the turini's & recaro's cheers :)

My bad i thought he changed the alloys not the steering wheel - taxi for me

I've had this problem everytime i've changed alloys. The tracking isn't altered when you change the wheel, the new wheels your putting on may not be balanced right. Always sorted out my problem of the car pulling to one side when the steering wheel is straight.

Your wheels need balancing

Problem solved. The slam panel slots down onto the subframe, then two bolts are nipped up to secure it. I had the panel sat too low, just pulled it up slightly and tightened the bolts :D

The nuts were on mate throughout the week, i have taken them off today to do some messing about. Got a piece of pipe in there now to stop it rubbing :P

During the week i stripped down the front bumper and top slam panel in order to fit a new air con rad. The problem i have now; the Air con pipe shown on the picture rub's on the slam panel. It's very tight! Have i fitted the panel correctly? The bloke came today to re-gas the system and noticed...

Is this thread for real? My thoughts exactly!

Looking at his profile, his car is a 1.2 16v, chances being having the 15" dynamique wheels which have a center cap held in by one bolt. The bolt head has 3 notches, which is removed using the three stud key supplied with the car. Or by purchasing another one on ebay..

Look in your spare wheel toolkit for the 3 pin key, that will remove the centre cap giving access to the wheel bolts. When fitting the 182 wheels, buy 4 alloy locking nuts, job done. If your missing the key, ask a neighbour. Every street has a clio on it :)

Has anyone had problems with their shift light not illuminating once nearing the rev limit? I don't recall mine illuminating to acknowledge a gear change. My 172 used to come on around 6k revs. The 182 however, when you start the car up, it illuminates with the other ignition lights, but not...

She was called Jayne... I remember asking for her number :P http://www.cliosport.net/forum/showthread.php?t=255360

Shhhh... I've been driving Steve mad with my blowing exhaust, he said it's never been right on this car. LOL I been to birchdown twice with it :P

A £300 re-map to most TDI's makes them very hard to catch on a straight, i doubt the cars at fault. Will have them in the twistys :P

The DC5's looking good Gaz! Did you ever have the 182 on a rolling road by any chance? I keep getting beaten badly by diesels, want to make sure it's putting out the correct power :)

Sorry Ben...

I feel sorry for the driver when HSE visit the housing development site!

sex! Does the 182 miltek produce such a sound? :) The v6 helps i guess!
