How was the fitment of the 182 manifold?? Tempted to do mine at the same time as I do the gearbox but it looks super tight.

I mean this in the nicest possible way, but if you don’t know what you’re doing, leave it to the professionals. I’ve done 3 ceramic coatings in my time and being blunt, I wouldn’t do another one unless I was charging £1200 as a minimum. It’s a LOT of work. very briefly, and by no means a...

Serious talk time… have you considered changing careers? I tried leaving the motor trade and it lasted a weekend. I can’t not be around cars.

Have you played around with the rear damper settings and tyre pressures? I had a friend with me on my last day and he was constantly messing with my pressures and the difference it made was amazing.

You need approval to fit different wheels??

I’ve used Focal before and was well impressed with them. No idea if they make them in your size but they seem very well built and sounded ace.

Can I get the link…..

“I’m looking at spending £800 on a drawer to keep bits and pieces in” “I’m not made of money” FFS which is it??

Calm down Gary.

I hate Audi’s with a passion. I think they’re s**t. however, my wife had a very similar car to the one you’ve purchased and I have to say it was a brilliant thing. Big enough in the back for 3 kids seats, did 50+mpg all day every day, really comfy and £20 a year tax. Went ok too really for what...

Being a knob here, but when you say “fully fitted” what other options did they offer you?? partly fitted? Half fitted?

I have the same issue with PS fluid in my van on track. so before the track day, I suck out some fluid and run it on minimum. This gives enough space for it to expand and not piss out everywhere.

I’ve got a 2.8 V6 4motion coming in part exchange on Monday!

I hate to say it, but I had EXACTLY the same issue on a 182 years ago. eventually we traced it to a damaged loom. The bit where it goes through the bulkhead. Every now and again a chafed wire would either earth out on the bulkhead or spike on one of the other damaged wires. It had been to BTM...

Just our local tyre place.

Not really.

I pay £28 each fitted for 195/50/15 Uniroyal Rainsport 5’s. 185/55/15 is a w**k size, change it if you can.

Looks like a scene from a computer game! 😂

Injectors fitted were the ones that were in my van. I acquired a set of brand new ones so fitted them to my van last year and the ones that were already on it went in my mates toolbox for spares. They then went in your Cup when the original ones started playing silly buggers. Now whilst they...

Treat them with an interior protection product before fitting them. Should make them stay a bit cleaner and easier to clean if they do get dirty.

Bright yellow on a LY 197. any other choice made by you means you identify as non-binary.

How many times have you done CSF Freebone?? *drops mic

It’s a car showroom mate so ideally not. Knowing my luck we’ll set it all up and then some chump will turn up wanting to test drive the car at the back. 😂 that said, a Sunday afternoon could work?

If you’re in Lydney I’d love you to do mine! (my car is at my work, in Chepstow) let me know when you’re up and running and I’ll book in!

I’ll be retired in Spain before you finish that bloody thing!

Managed Castle Combe on Monday just gone. Was a great day! Went out and did a few ‘tepid’ laps to clean up the brakes and tyres, came in and adjusted the pressures, then proceeded to what felt like a million laps, it was empty there! Car was faultless again, nobody believes it’s a standard...

£3k-ish for a decent job. A full colour change is a LOT of work. waste of money imo. You’ll probably devalue the car also.

When I’ve finished this years track days. I plan on giving it a bit of a refresh with a few bits, the gearbox is the main one.

I can’t wait for him to do mine!

You need to try harder....
