^^^ Knowsit . Been mentioned 100's of times , low brake fluid level / worn brake pads . Do a search and you'll find lots of posts about it , it's a common problem .
They look fcukin horrible mate . I'm pretty sure you'll get the same response from most other people as well . Keep yours standard rear lights . If you want to change anything , just change the orange indicator bulbs for silvervisons and leave it at that .
Knowsit ;) Exactly what i did . Sold on Autotrader for the same price as so called " UK " cars were advertised at , similar age , mileage etc ...... :quiet:
Happy as the proverbial in sh!t
Paint it . As long as long as you prep it right , plenty of colour coats and lacquer it should be ok . Its only an inch lower than the bumper . Is that chipped to fcuk ??
Both my imports had the VIN number displayed on the dash , on the passenger side .
The later 182's didn't have etched windows , i'm not sure if the earlier ones had or not .

That said i also paid £1500...
I always layer mine , i very rarely use the same wax twice when layering .
Try some collinite 845 , just as good as the 476 but hell of alot easier to apply / remove . Or Collinite # 925 boat wax .
Firstly , it sounds like a bit of a s**t warranty you have if it only covers the motor and not the regulator , as like you said . it's all one unit . When one goes it all needs replacing .
Was it replaced with a brand new motor and regulator ? If so , it will come with a 12 months guarantee ...
Have you just changed your oil ? When you dropped the oil some of it might have spilt onto the foam therefore it's dripping a couple of drops everyday .
Mine once got cover in oil when i dropped the oil out of mine ,i couldn't be assed to clean it off so i got a few spots of oil on the...
I have the Philips silvervisions in mine , been in about 2 years now and still working fine . Not the cheapest i know but sometimes its better to pay a little bit more for quality .
