    Got a pic? I’ve had great success with a heat gun. Lots of vids on YouTube.

    I’m not exporting it mate. Far too many things can go wrong. And if he buys it and hates it when it arrives, then what?? 😂

    How much %age increase!

    We sold a VW sharan to a guy yesterday that had exactly this. Bin lorry went down the side of his 2018 Sharan and damaged 2 doors. No other damage. Our Bodyshop place would have charged £800/1000 to fix it no bother. But because it’s insurance and they need brand new parts the doors had to...

    How much %age increase!

    This. I always buy the cheapest nastiest shittest policy I can find, just to stay legal and nothing more. They are absolute bandits and will gladly take our money but when we need them they just bend us over and go in dry. f**k ‘em. My insurance is up for renewal end of next month. Broker...

    Restoring Little Bluey - my 182 FF ClioSport in Racing Blue

    I find unplugging and plugging in the uch numerous times (10+) usually gives a temporary fix - this will then confirm if it’s the UCH at fault. Only if it twice admittedly but both times that ‘fixed’ it so I knew it had to be sent off for repair.

    Disconnecting battery for storage

    I just disconnect the negative lead and leave the car as is. Then a few days before you want to fire it up again, stick a charger on it to make sure it’s topped up. A good battery shouldn’t go flat flat if it’s not connected to anything.

    Advice - Looking to buy a RB 182

    I think you’re underselling that tbh. I’d be asking for £5995 for that all day long. In fact I’d probably start it at £6495.

    Something very satisfying about new premium rubber on freshly powder coated rims… And fitting them was a nause. I only fit big ballon tyres and they’re easy. These stupid little cotton reels were hard work. 😂

    Which is why I just send them away to be done now. I don’t have the time or the patience for it. Unless someone is paying me. 😂

    Mate I don’t think I’ll be doing any more sadly. I’ve got the RB to do next and I think I’m done with Renaults after that sadly. Just far too expensive now to get them anywhere near a decent standard. And that’s if you can even get the parts. (Apart from the Mk1, that’s going nowhere)

    ***How much is it worth?***

    I paid considerably more than the asking price. Seller was 100% honest in the description and I was 100% fair with my price. I’ve never ripped anyone off in the 20 years I’ve been doing this and I don’t intend to start now. (I couldn’t resist taking it round the block despite it being nowhere...

    Does it sound normal when it’s cranking over? Or does it crank over really fast and sound a bit s**t?
