Nothing wrong with the saxo, its clean and unmolested so you cant fault that. Shame its on a VTR though and not the VTS but the 8v TU is dead easy to work on
Re: CLIO 182 SPORT NEWBIE
Looks a tidy one for that amount of miles. I think silver 182 wheels really work with some colours better than the anthracites, but I think you should fit a cup spoiler just to finish it off ;)
Fill the mounts with silicone like i did. Also is it properly aligned to the part from that comes from the cat? It might need a little turn and the clamp doing back up (if you exhaust does indeed split in two, not sure about milltek)
Right all done, and did an interior clean too. Does anyone else find that their exhaust moves about when it gets hot? I've found mine will shift towards the offside slightly so its not in line with the bumper holes any more. Going to see tomorrow morning what its like after a drive.
No offence to 200 owners but no matter how good the 200 is, it wont be able to ascertain the level of "cult" status the 205 has, purely due to nostalgia and how people remember the car for what it represented and how it drove all those years ago.
If you plumb the air conditioning into the intake manifold it gives the same effect as fitting a turbo charger. Thats what the recirculation button is for on the climate control.
they fall away from the mount but that my be my cable ties being too small. Ive filled my old mounts (as the new ones are on the car) with silicone now. Gonna try them tomorrow
Just looked my exhaust mounts as my pipes are sitting wonky again. Seems the rubber has stretched and deformed in about 1500 miles? Are there knock off mounts kicking about on the internet?
182 - Followed you through bilston and over goldthorn hill into penn.
197 - older guy driving came past you at WOT but you didnt seem to wanna have a play. You also have a headlight out!
Definately worth a punt if its not buggered. How many trophies did the UK get? Seems there are always one or two for sale on the net, yet you cant find LY 182s or petrol for love nor money!
only 28 of those about so thats gotta make it one of the rarest production cars about? Did it have pistonheads sticker in the rear left quarter of the screen?
Petrol blue? I saw one near where I live once and in bright sunshine it looks like a sea blue with lot of a green in it? People say inferno is crap on photos, but petrol blue is even worse. In real life its well a smart colour. 05 plate tallys up to the run of 182s too
