My personal opinion, is throw it in the bin and buy a new one. If its caused you aggro from day one and now its spontaniously combusted, its trying to tell you something. You'll have insurance so just claim on it and start again.

What sort of stickers? Panini from World cup italia 90?

Sorry, I just assumed you bled them. My mistake.

Thats the difference see, my mum does a maximum of an hours driveing per week. She's done less than 6000 miles in three years.

172/182's are a pig to bleed. You're going to need to do it again unfortunately.

Seriously?? I've done about 10 of these and just cut/connect/solder without even worrying! Cheers Mick, I'll be worrying a lot more in future. :S

Just use another workshop ffs.

I'd rather have too much, at least then you can take it back if you don't use it. I'd buy 3 cans primer, 3 cans of colour and 3 cans of lacquer.

I loved my 200. If I was a single guy that needed a commuting car/fun weekend/occasional track toy then thats what i'd have. Absolutely brilliant cars. BUT! I'm not single and I have two small children so we grew out of the 200 pretty quickly. And the suspension is WAY too hard for two small...

I buy mine off a supplier at around £2 a can so i'd imagine in halfords etc they'll be about £5/6.

Any paint will do mate. Just pop to halfords. Just remember, its all in the prep. So make sure they're rubbed down, dust free, silicone free and completely clean. Put plenty of laquer on and you'll be fine.

Whats your Civic worth Steve? I've no idea as I know nothing about them. My 182 is in the for sale section.

Glorified car valeter tbh.

I wouldn't mind swapping my mint 182 for a CTR. Never had one of those...

Pics of your mk1?

I'm the same Steve. I've been through M3, 3 imprezas, Evo, MR2... I always come back to a clio. I just think they're the best all round package. (unless i suddenly become minted and get a caterham)

I wouldn't have thought so no. But then i'm not a car mechanic. Or a Carpenter.

They'll fail really quickly. The F4R only likes OE NGK plugs.

I know nothing about photography but picture 3 is amazing!

Guys, can we calm down please, he does boxing remember?

We had a peugeot gti once and bought a secondhand pugsport for it and took it to kwikfit. The snotty bellend of a manager there told us it was company policy not to fit parts that weren't supplied by them.

He's building it from scratch. Proper talented guy. When we've got some time off over xmas/new year you'll have to pop down to the unit where we keep the track cars! ;)

I think I have sussed this. Tie a rope through the holes on the wheels (3 0 clock and 9 o clock) and tie it to the back of a car. Drive off flat out. Go into the field over the road and find your wheel.

He's just pm'd me offering a fight...

I can't believe you've been a member on here since April and you haven't grasped the concept of taking the piss.

I've no idea, I just went in and asked for 4 tyres fitted for under £100 because I was paying as she's skint! lol. They're ok though, I was a bit dubious at first as lets be honest, they don't shout quality! lol.

Exhaust is perfect. What seats do those ones belong in? They look almost 200-ish.

So you're threatening to beat me up because I pointed out you're lazy when typing on a computer? How long have you been on the 'roids?

What suspension/mods are on it? Why have you not got a progress thread?
