Saw just down the bumble hole in Dudley, loud exhaust!

Saw this guy again today think he gave me a pap on the horn but can't be sure

What's the next benchmark for 1*2s going to be, I beat a 2015 type r? They are old cars now it's not going to keep up with these new turbo charged hatches where massive power increases are just a map away. As nice as the ST is I'd rather 8/10ths of the performance for 2/10ths the cost

makes all the difference ;)

how are they significantly faster?

the new fiesta trounces a 182. The one old isnt too far off, but like most cars in this range you need to ragging them to notice any difference

Parked up outside a house on the merridale road

Really simple just needs coolant bleeding

I dont recall it having those, looked standard

cant you just make a threaded metal sleeve for it and cable tie it up out of the way? Its what ive always done at least on other cars

Forgot this one, saw an arctic blue 182 with cup packs on goldthorn hill last night. Bald (lol) dude driving

I have had bad and good but mostly bads. First one pulled me (this is when ANPR was first released) to tell me my car was stolen. I'd only had the car 2 weeks so off we go to sit in the back of their car and they went through the motions of asking questions about it and me. I then noticed that...

one thing to check is the thermostat housing seal. I put a non genuine one on my 182 and it used to lose coolant when warm and after a drive, dripping onto the plastic gearbox cover and boiling off so look for staining there.

for such an easy and cheap job its worth doing it early. I do my 182 and saxo every 4k if not less than that and the oil stays very clean for a long amount of time, compared to my missus tigra that when I changed the oil on its straight away darkbrown/black again in 200 miles but I intend to...

ive always read on here 6k is the absolute maximum you should be leaving the oil in. I'd do that on pretty much any car too, its generally black as feck by then

unbolted and cleaned the throttle body out last night and no problem this morning (touch wood)

Oil changes should be 6k or less.

Just had a read of that think I recall the car. They are amazing fun even with just the 1.4 16v in, my old gtis used to feel hilariously quick for what they were. I take it you have moved to a 182 now?

What's your username on there mate? I had sets on various metros seems the choice of tyres on the rims for them is limited. Managed to do an under steer 40ft slide at 20mph in the damp on a set. Awful things made of recycled plastic but they did last forever

By the morrisons about 5:45 pm

could have been a lot worst that, lucky you got off quite lightly. Have a go driving a 160 bhp metro on 15 year old camac aurigas. Driving on those has taught me to drive respectfully in the rain no matter what the car or tyre setup

He went into walsall and turned right by the manor hospital? Often see the car in wolverhampton. Think the number ends BTB

When the cars been sitting and has gone stone cold over night, I come to start it in the morning and it starts up but will idle so low it will cut out unless I give it a a touch of throttle. Once the throttle has been pressed it raises the idle to the normal speed and all is well. Car doesnt...

Going up the black country route. 55 plate. Very clean indeed

Yeah dark grey 182 standard wheels but it didn't have a cup spoiler. Blonde woman driving it

One arctic 182 on 2118s heading towards the m6 The other - titanium non cup going towards bilston

It did look very nice indeed. Another one to add to the list of clips round here but not on the forum

Another one being ragged and trashed then by the sounds of it

Was just googling rb 182s and this popped up. Pretty sure it was this very car, minus the stripes http://www.cliosport.net/forum/showthread.php?547884-RB182-2118-s-and-a-what-s-it-worth/page2

Parked outside the roadrunner motor spares shop just now. On a set of grey 2118s. Looked really smart, not a usual colour to spot round these parts
