I quite like it , keeping it the same colour as the car . It's definitely different from other diamonds that have been sprayed up in various colours . It's always good to see somebody trying something original :)

You won't get a good deal if you part ex yours . Dealers never offer good money for second hand cars . It's just not worth their while making a couple of hundred quid selling it on , they need to make alot bigger profit . Plus at the moment car sales have really slumped so they'll probably offer...

My service book for the 182 states that the accessories belt and pulleys should be changed at 36k or 5 years .

Mine did this a couple of times just after i bought it . Just wiggle the wire for the temp sensor it might just be a loose connection . Mines been alright ever since ( touch wood ) for the past cpuple of years :)

So you where charged £500 for the 36k service that didn't include the aux belt , now they say they do it at a reduced rate ? :S The price of £500 should have " included " the aux belt being changed . You need to get back onto the dealer and tell them you've already paid the amount to include...

Agreed . All this waffle about being for losers and not needing it . I never had it on my 172 , have it on my 182 and it makes sod all difference to my driving experience . I'm sure some people on here haven't got a clue what they're on about sometimes :quiet:

My CC works fine . Keeps the cabin at a constant temp as it's suppose to do . Auto wipers are a good thing imo and work fine in my 182 as they did in my 172 , it rains , they come on , it rains harder , they wipe faster . :) I'd rather have the toys than not have them ;)

It might be . But the guy who got the badges dipped was called FusionRS . Looks like he never ventures onto CS anymore so we'll probably never get to the bottom of how the badges are done and cost . Only places i've seen on google are all in the USA ...

I'm not sure mate . I never make backups of games , only films ;)

Yeah , but i'm actually answering the OP question not meandering away from it ;) :quiet:

Toad 850T , Cat 1 , lifetime warranty and uses the original keyfob .

I wouldn't bother with dual layer discs and a dual layer burner . Just download " Clonedvd " it rips , shrinks down to fit onto a 4.7gb disc and burns all in one . I always use dvd's using Ritek G05 dye .

Right !!! Found the post about the white 172 with the Carbon Dipped badges .Apparently it's called Hydrographic dipping . I'm surprised it didn't take off tbh , it actually does look like carbon fibre from the pics . http://www.cliosport.net/forum/showthread.php?t=238083&highlight=white+172

Go for one with both cup packs . Roughly 80% of 182's were sold with the cup pack options , so it would be probably harder to find one without than with .

Welcome to CS . Enjoy the site :)

I just remember whoever it was saying his mate did the badge and bullets and they were " carbon dipped " .

Yeah thats the one . It had a leopard print engine cover as well . I wasn't imagining things then eh lol :)

There was somebody on here , can't remember who now , who had their front diamond and bullets carbon dipped . Thats what he called it . Don't know the ins and outs of it , but it was some kind of paint and the effect when done was carbon . I remember alot of people commenting on it , saying...

That'll be 2 white ones knocking about then in the Blackburn area . White's becoming so common these days ;) It's been said before and i'll say it again . White should have been an option from the factory .

Mine . RS blue and anthracite .

Should have got a decent printer like an Epson . I'm sure somebody did recommend them :quiet:

This man speaketh the truth . All the trim products just mask any white marks , same with any oils . WD40 if your gonna go for a masking product gets my vote everytime . Removing with the rubber first then using WD40 is the best way i've found .

Collinite 885 and 925 owns the lot imo for durability and ease of use :approve:

Welcome to CS mate :)

Mine snapped on my 172 , not just popped off .

A quick way to tell if a car has xenons is that it'll have the headlamp washer jets . They have to be fitted by law to any car that has xenons .

That was the first thing i did when i bought my 182 , drove it home , up on the ramps and cable tied the cv boot clips . It seems to be quite a common problem that they snap .

Welcome to CS :) I see all the sharks are out with the one liners lol . I wonder why ;)

Finally , spotted you at last . The Nimbus was lookin' good :cheers:

If it's only a small chip you could try filling the chip with paint using a c0cktail stick , sanding and polishing . Have a read of this : http://www.guidetodetailing.com/articles.php?articleId=27
