Welcome to Cliosport mate . Glad your happy with your car , enjoy it :) I'll let others tell you how it stands up against other " hot hatches " . In some peoples eyes it's unbeatable ;)

How olds the battery ? 12 volts is indicating your batteries fcuked maybe not holding a charge. It should be around 12.6 - 12.7 volts if it's in good condition . If it's older than 3 years i'd say its on it's way out , time for a new battery .

You can have a 182 cup , a 182FF without the optional cup packs and a 182FF with the optional cup packs . You've got 2 cup packs . One is the front splitter under the bumper and the rear spoiler . Then you have the suspension cup pack which has slightly lower and stiffer suspension and the...

Its a 182FF with cup packs that your after mate .

Just go to a scrapyard and get a 165 /55 /16 steel wheel with an old tyre on , you won't save much space though over a 205/45/16 though. Afaik you can't buy a spacesaver specific to the 182 . Ask yourself how many times you've actually had to change a wheel at the side of the road ? Is it...

I assume you mean EU working time directive ? Thats been in place since 1998 in the UK and it's only optional . If it was enforced lots of places would simply go out of business .

I don't use 3rd gear much , straight from 2nd to 4th , lol . Sounds like you need some driving lessons tbh ;)

Who's cleo ? :quiet:

The Ph1's do seem to hold their price pretty well compared to the Ph2's . Maybe cos they sold alot less of them and some people prefer the looks of the Ph1 over the Ph2 .

For 5K he should be able to pick up a FF 172 2001-02 plate with around 50k on the clock no problem imo . Have a look on autotrader . There are loads going for 4k -5k but he will most likely have to travel a few miles . If you can get one off here better still as most will probably be better...

Not sure if it's worth the extra dosh yet .Looks wise i can't fault it .A tiny amount goes a long way .I used it on the scuttle panel , front splitter , fog surrounds , wing mirror surrounds and the back bumper insert and the bottle still looks unused . I'm guessing a bottle will last a long...

Welcome to CS mate .

^^^ I have to agree . The guys basically driving around with no insurance . Lol , at the drive REALLY carefull comment . Just hope he doesn't have an accident or hit somebody else :eek:

I've just used mine for the first time today . What can i say , it looks black , lol .I doubt the car will be getting another wash for a couple of weeks so i'll see how long it lasts . Tbh the finish doesn't look any different to the CG trim gel or WD40 which i think is the best stuff i've used...

Welcome to CS . Age is just a number ;)

My mate has it in his astra , was done at Vauxhall though not aftermarket . He runs 99% of the time on lpg , it switches over from petrol automatically after about 2 mins .

You could try nitromors . But tbh the paint comes off very easily with wet and dry . You won't need to remove all the paint , just the loose paint . Leave the good paint and just rough it up a little with some 800 grit wet and dry to give it a good key . Just make sure the wheels are clean ...

You'll obvisously have to remove any loose paint first . Use some 320 grit wet and dry . Heres how i did mine . But mine was badly scratched so needed some filler as well . If you do a search there are a few other people who have done theirs so you'll get a few ideas .

Yep , thats alot better ;) But then again i am comparing the original contis on my old 172 , which aren't a bad tyre imo to the exaltos on my 182 which are a better tyre , again imo :) Everybody has their own opnions on tyre size and make , what suits them the best . If stevieg has 182 alloys...

Haven't you got a printer , lol . Don't get brake fluid on your laptop it might melt it ;) or on any of your paintwork either .
