ive had a play with a black 106...private plate..
guy drove like a loony and overtook me on strathen road in front of the police coming the other way...
they chased him but he was well away...
is this the same one..?
no...if it was the coil it would be constant...
The coil might be "failing" tho, about to go...(i dunno if this can happen, this is a guess. Im sure someone will be able to help on here)
BTW warrenty JOB..!!
If you are thrashing it from cold, sometimes it wont let you go over a...
one of my coil packs went in the 182...
same kinda thing happened...coughing...went into limp mode...couldnt go over 35mph...
you would notice if it was a coil pack that went...
your car would practically shut down...mite be leads or something..?
i woke up one morning to find my cat asleep on the rear seats in the 182..
Got back late that nite so must have snuck in the car door when i was getting out the car...
THANK GOD it didnt shite or anything...looked quite happy...
lucky it wasnt a cup (would have been very uncomfortable)
ive seen those wheels on my mates old 1.2 Biarritz...looked better on the older style clios...dunno why they are on your car though...
they where stupidly small, 14inch or something...?
is that a pube in the footwell???
made you's look.....
Very nice....youd better get the polish out....btw...melted wheel?? very weird...was the last owner a smoker..?
Used to drive by it at the philipshill car centre place...
some nice cars in there...
Think it was sitting at £6999...i think..?
Wasnt there for long though...who bought it..???
my mates saxo done this...ahem..
the battery connections wer rusted...and the alternator couldnt re-charge the battery....

I think im sure i know the guy you are talking about...

Usually a girl driving it though...she has tried to race a couple of times...
but i dont race
Spotted in the car park at Arrochar at the bottom of the Cobbler..
I was on my way up it for a run and seen it parked up 54plate black 182...
Also seen a few clios on the way back...black 1.2 with nice looking grill...
Sombody must have seen me, ive been up that way everyday now...
Hypothetically of course...
On a 182...if somebody gave even a small rear end shunt to the centre of the rear of the car, coming into contact with the exhausts...
could this shunt the manifold, jiggering the engine..?
I had a wee look under the car and the exhaust looks pretty sturdy...
Nah bugger them...as soon as i bought the car from them...my relationship with them was over...
Straight over to arnold clark for everything else now...(apart from some saftey recall a yr ago)
had to take it to parks for that...and they gave me a complementary vehicle check...found i had...
