I didnt buy it because it had been advertised as mapped and cammed by the way! This wasn't actually in the original listing it's a few owners back who I had managed to get in touch with who told me this information.

Yeah, I don't really trust it to be honest! Especially when he told me it ran 216 on dyno.... He had said the throttle body was larger but it's stock unless he has bored it out? Suppose I could take it off and have a look. It's easier to just believe it hasn't been modified and if it has, well...

Does anyone in the area have an RSTuner I could borrow to plug in just to check if my car is mapped like the PO says? Thanks,

Awesome, cheers Dave! Anyone near huddersfield got an RSTuner then? ... ;)

Yeah it does just that. Also idles really lumpy, had been told it was cammed but don't know if that's true either as there's no paperwork to prove it. Is there another way to check if mapped? I'd get an RSTuner but no point if its already been done!

I was told by the PO that the car had been mapped at some point in its life. Is there a way for me to tell? I'd read that it would sit at 1.1k revs, and also have no limiter on it but the cars not actually on the road at the moment so I cant test the no limiter part. It doesn't sit at 1.1k once...

Doesn't the fan only kick in once to temperature? How long did you let it sit for?

A video the PO sent me: A video under the bonnet just to hear if anything sounds out of ordinary?: Slight revving after warming up a bit, but still a bit cold:

Yeah it has fairly lumpy idle, but I don't know if this is just normal for a 182! I have a video ill attach give me a minute.

I've spoken to a previous owner and he told me that when he bought the car it had just had the belts done (a few months ago) and that he did have the paperwork to prove it although it's not in my paperwork now! Not recently anyway... Although there was paperwork for a tensioner and alternator...

Well I received my car last night and I am over the moon with it! On first glance it has a custom catback exhaust, decat, ktec engine mounts, KTR Induction kit, Polybushed dogbone, hydrodipped(?) interior trim pieces,steering wheel trim and gear knob trim and tons of paperwork. Still need to...

?£££?

Doesn't look too bad! What's the specs and how much did you pay? Removing that Luke towstrap would improve it by 100000000000000000%

how much for a matte black one lee?

Yeah, I'll most likely just continue to use my phone anyway! Does it speak to you then? I would ideally want to change the headunit to something a bit better but have also read that the satnav is connected to the OEM radio and thus cannot be remove without rendering it useless... Don't know how...

What's the best way for a novice to get a decent shine on the BG? Am I right in thinking getting it washed well, detarred, ironx, clay, wash, DA, cutting compound? Polish and then a wax? I tried with a rotary before and polishing/cutting compound but didn't seem to do much more than usual...

I'll see how well it actually functions first :wink: Going to search for a disk to use with it Looks amazing!!!

Just done a HPI check, and it's told me its had a plate change from L12NUD if anyone knows it?

Could be tempted to do a tablet install, would be pretty nice. I dont know what sort of space there is though.

Will be outdated... Any methods of updating?

I'll start a thread when it comes to it, should've had one with my 1.2 really too!

I'm thinking i'll take it to my brothers work to get it all machine polished. Excited to start making modifications that actually change the feeling of the car! Any ideas on the exhaust that's fitted? Doesn't look standard.

I'm also going to keep the renaultsport on the windscreen and just put a smaller sunstrip underneath it

Not quite an RB but more in my budget ;)

Hopefully! And decals definitely going.

I just purchased a BG 182 for the pricely sum of £1200. Comes with FSH aswell as a factory fitted sat nav and was just wondering whether anyone actually knew the car? I dont feel I've done too bad with the purchase however it is on 120k miles and due belts. It's going to be an ongoing project...

Looked good mate! Was much cleaner than mine ahaha. I was in a 172 rep just in the car park getting some lunch before heading to ogden walk. Really want an rb...

Edifier extreme. They have awesome bass and last forever! Cheap too.

Spotted a nice 197 LY come past me today on the way to halifax, aswell as seeing an RB in morrisons jet wash in halifax near ogden. Anyone on here?

Whats with his gormless expression and turtle impression all the f**king time?
