Can you separate again, so you and your dad can go alone and keep your own bonus?

Better be ready for sunday! Surely on a 11/12 year old car the depahser would of been a given?

Re: Sir_Dave's Trophy. The 182 on (nearly) 182k ... I got them that price new from Demon Tweeks. Just rang them up.

Re: Sir_Dave's Trophy. The 182 on (nearly) 182k ... Same as I went for, these should go more than stiff enough, couldn't warrant the double price pretty much for MF ones. Got them on last night but its not really the weather to be testing them out!

Please could we keep this on topic :)

You should of come and seen your old friend Mike about the wheels ;)

Yeh everyone ;)

Like said, everyone is welcome. Even polish Paul is allowed in his faded yellow!

That good to know, I was thinking or organising one in May but I'd much rather you did :rasp:

Very jealous! Trophys dont have electric. They aren't from a Trophy as they are all cloth, and different pattern. Wonder what they are from, or if they are just bought by a previous owner.

Electric?

Cheers for that, around £100 for the right one, have to enquire for the alternative caliper so have sent one it. Really hope it is that price! If not there is a new genuine one on ebay for £90

I, erm, fit the pads ;) The same calipers hand brake mechanism doesn't work though (foot brake works fine), so think its new caliper time, where's best to get them?

I'm off to see my car in about half an hour or so, any ideas? I'm thinking I might just take a bit off the pads and then next time I'll get new calipers, that's if it doesn't wind in tonight.

+1 I think it's October since I've seen most of the Yorkshire lot

Yep, I've done them before on my last 182 no problem. And the other side went fine. Thanks for all the replies so far

Just rang my uncle, as the cars at his. He says its moving lovely, just wont go in the last few mm. The pads are sat in the groove too, and are perfectly straight. Not sure what to do at all now, I'm not wanting to buy new calipers, could sand down the pads :o

Have undone the cap. It goes in fine so far, then wont go in that last bit. The generic tool my uncle has doesn't fit so had to resort to the screwdriver method.

As title, rear piston still needs another few mm to go in to get the pads sitting right. Drivers side went fine but passenger side has done this. Any advice on how we could get it in? It only needs one more full turn but its stopping as if its got to its end.

Well, I'm pretty sure you would be entitled to a refund. If he is going to pay towards fixing it then he should pay it all.

I'm confused between finance and debt, so its more that £3.5k you owe? I'm with Daniel if you plan to keep a 1*2, or if you really need the money then sell everything and run something really cheap (or nothing if you have the van) until you can afford to buy again.

I think you'd be better pushing for a refund and losing the £300. For the sake of £300 its really not worth the hassle/expense you'll have.

Try selling it as a car first, breaking it should be a last resort imo.

Closes Tuesday night too, comment too to keep the thread up :)

Good to see Chris getting more folk to TOPO :approve: Nice car mate, I'm only in Halifax, when the weathers better we should meet up for a little photoshoot, chris you too :)

My 182 was fine last year. My mothers Aygo is the car of choice in our household though!

Glad you got it sorted mate :) Would the recovery guys not settle on the splitter?

Is the twisty bit on the end of the stalk or about 1/3 of the way in. If it's the one thats not on the end its to make the auto wipers more/less sensitive.

Any 10w40 semi syth should be fine.

Take a piece of wire and touch it across the pins
