    182 Vs Mini works

    Ill be interested in the results - for sure. For those who have never driven just a basic Cooper S (not a Works) the power delivery is a welcome change - the complete opposite of turbo cars. Jains Mini feels heavier and is heavier than my 182. Its low-down surge would be more than caught up by...

    2 black beasts (56k warning)

    I defy any person who dislikes Jap cars to look at those pictures and think "Well, maybe...." They are great. Again, Ive a preference for the Evo, but the Scooby would be a very close 2nd! :cool: D.

    Flashed

    Mmmm. Probably not me then m8. Closest I gets to the Hollins area is the Asda at Pilsworth every now and then. Im on the top road between Bury and Rochdale or the M66 roundabout, Jnc 2 on a daily basis though. D.

    own up

    Ive seen a lot worse. If the exterior didnt have quite so many slats and vents in the bodykit, I think it would look alright! D.

    Blue 182, Blackburn Tescos....

    How often Leeshez? I usually go to Asda, more often than not... If I go today - youll spot mine a mile off. Immaculately clean Saturday morning, Monday morning caked in bird sh*t. b******s. D.

    Gardening - with a Supra (56k ok)

    Looks good FM. Is his UK spec? Ive always liked the Supras, though I thought they would look better with twin pipes at the back. Wish I could afford the petrol for one! D.

    reno 5 mmmm

    Must admit - the white GTts were my favourite colour. I think I have even more respect for them now as the ones that are left are either driven well, looked after well or a combination of both. The kevs and idiots have killed the rest off. I would have had a personal for Chriss car - the...

    Gardening - with a Supra (56k ok)

    The cars going fine so far, Carl - suffering the same engine creaks and stuff that most 182 drivers have on here, but thats about it. Its worlds apart from the previous SnotMobile, in terms of handling and dare I say, build quality over the Fiat. N/A driving takes some getting used to after a...

    Naples Valver In Preston Town Centre

    How long did you have the batteries out of the key fob before you put the new ones in? I know on the Puntos is what something really daft, like 15 seconds or so was your limit or else the key and the car could fail to communicate with each other afterwards. D.

    Are These Tacky

    sh*te - real sh*te. :sick: Whats wrong with the straight-forward silver runners? D.

    Yey! Hi m8! :cool: I was going to mention the new alloys, but I didnt have a pic of them! Nice to see its still looking good and youve had no more prangs - I hope?! D.

    Willy 3 Just washed :-) (No 56k)

    Looking good m8! I noticed the mucky side bits too - bloody horses!!! That road off Grane to Edgworth is designed for cars like the Willy! Like Lee said, its nice to see an original one. It must be hard not to succumb to modifying it. And the Strawberry Duck is a cracking pub - the fish &...

    LOL blink! :D Maybe the chaotic inertia of her bra-less assets would be too much for the MR2s suspension to cope with?? D.

    Gardening - with a Supra (56k ok)

    Chris/FM - it is indeed Shadsworth lads! Just a bloody good job that there was nobody on the pavement.... Ive never been a fan of turbos and auto boxes. The two never seem to know what the other bit of kit is doing. At least it would brighten up the TV ratings for garden programs. Going...

    Hes still got it m8! Cost a fair bit in panel damage - as you can imagine. Looks great now though... D.

    Gardening - with a Supra (56k ok)

    Just tidying out the crap from my PCs and came across these pics from about a year ago. A m8 of mine pressed the right-pedal a bit too much and the stupid auto box went into kick-down....... on a bend. Ouch..... :cry: http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v601/Unzen74/PICT0125800x600.jpg...

    Awesome Ring video (no 56k)

    If its on a Mac, ask it nicely, press a case mounted glowing neon button (which cost £80 alone) and it maybe (just maybe) save it to the hard drive.... Youve just gotta love Macs - or laugh at them...... :D ;) D.

    Still got that saved on my HDD from the last time! :D Just shows you what you can do with the right machinery and a hefty amount of talent.... D.

    Nurburgring Pics - Roamer Imaging

    Whos is that Y-plate black Clio at the start of the albums? Thats one of the best looking Clios Ive seen - the wheels especially. Wish I had a sun-roof on mine...... :( D.

    H053 *** ,172 Cup, Grane Road - daily...

    See it almost everyday now. Let onto them before, but no response. Probably another none-forum user! D.

    my cup with 2020’s and prospeed!

    Looks great, though I prefer Trios photoshopped pic - looks even better lowered! Nice to see someone buck the trend and go for smaller wheels.... D.

    Swap Black Gold for Inferno!

    BTW - has that inferno pictured on the previous page got a front splitter on it? Looks like its missing - or is that just my eyes?! D.

    182 this morning - Blackburn

    Ive seen a silver 182 at that same place - twice now. Usually at the junction where the Mercedes garage is.... D.

    Swap Black Gold for Inferno!

    Is the inferno colour the same one that you can get the Meg 225 in? If so, I saw one of those at the Renault dealership near us. Apparently, it was relatively cheap because no-one liked the colour........ according to the saleman?! D.

    window popped for

    Ouch. :cry: Bad news m8. I had the same done to the lock on my GTt. It was around £70 for a replacement lock and barrel and then £220 for the mangled bodywork to be put back right and resprayed. It wasnt cheap, but looked ok afterwards. Reno should have made the 182s keyless entry..... D.
