    CD Changer - too cheap?

    Yeah its cheap if it works . The cables are around 70 odd quid iirc from Renault and i saw someone mention the other day the brackets are about 8 quid . The cables very rarely come up for sale though . Just got to keep an eye out on here and ebay for one .

    Best place to get PE2's from?

    http://www.mytyres.co.uk/ is usually the cheapest and fast delivery £79.80 delivered . Then you need to get them fitted . I got mine fitted locally at 5 quid a corner :)

    197 K&N

    You'd be better of just gettin a universal cone filter , 90 degree bend and cold air feed . It'll probably work out hell of alot cheaper .

    197 K&N

    I wouldn't bother with the apollo tbh mate . They are just a universal filter . I had one on my 182 and it lost power so i sold it on ebay for more than i paid for it ;) The surface area of the filter is smaller than the surface area of the original panel filter , the engine lost the 5k kick .

    182 import?

    Ask about the service hsitory , any receipts for any work that might have been carried out . Check the new tyres on the front aren't billy budget ones , you don't want to be finding yourself in a ditch :eek: . Also check the rear tyres , if there's not much tread left you'll be looking at around...

    182 import?

    Good luck Dean . The key is don't seem too over enthusiastic when you go and view it . Always try and find some kind of fault , if it has no alarm , the small dent etc .... If he's desparate to sell he might knock a couple of hundred more off ;)
