That only shows MOT's, not service history!

Not a fan of that! The back looks suspiciously 458 and from the front it looks too mid league Lotus-esque. Pass!

They are absolutely awesome.

Putting budget tyres on a car renowned for its handling is like f**king a supermodel with your clothes on. You'll never realise how good it is until you go all out. Don't skimp on tyres and brakes.

Have you checked the earth straps? It could be an earthing issue. Try taking them off and cleaning the terminals up, I had similar issues on my old 172 - the temperature guage shot all over the place and it occasionally wouldn't start... The nearside earth strap under the arch liner needed...

This is an awesome thread!

Fit any springs you like and if something fails, re fit the old ones. Theres really no need to complicate it?

If its my week off, i'll be there - actively want to spread the Scotland this year <3 x

Ah yes, on my old Exclusive... I think I mentioned in the thread it sorted about three issues at once!

For what it takes to check it its worth pulling the airbox out and giving the metal tip a clean/light sand down! Think its x2 13/14mm bolts to undo it!

Had four; Iceberg phase 1 Exclusive phase 1 Arctic 182 Mondial 172 Cup Covered 200k between all four so far. Got my first at 22 now 28 and still love them.

Today at 15:30!

Could someone on standard springs and dampers please take measurements of the top of the arch to the ground please, checking my suspension is OEM and not something else, cheers.

HT leads it seems, MPG drops through the floor with a faulty lambda sensor!

Bang on that post!

FLOL!

And 20kg's lighter than a 'normal' 182.

LOL. Missed this first time round. f**k a nun that must go like the hammers of hell.

Did you leave it with the handbrake on??

Aye I'd just seen some of the boys mentioning issues with their 135i's - that's not so bad then! Fairly decent figures as standard as well! Like most modern diesels, that'll map well aye? probably 250bhp or so?

Its the green plugged one facing you infront of the engine in case you were wondering where it is lad.

Not to split hairs but, as per threads on here - are these more reliable than the M135i? They seem to have had the odd issue it seems? Very nice btw!

This is possible, the phase 1 f4r shares the same box as the Cup from memory.

I love that!

@peedee how have you found consumables on it mate? Any reliability issues? I gather they're pretty good on petrol?

Interesting, Tom. I said it at launch and i'll say it again - too many people don't want to like it rather than adapting to the innevitable change. Theres an LY for sale up here at 15k:hearteyes:

Whose all driven the 200 edc?

I gather it was a c**t to get off? That rear wiper nut is an arse of a thing lol

I'd get that back on standard springs/cooksports! Really not keen on dropped on its hoop suspension on anything!

As already said, good Dc2's are commanding 'scene' tax and people are clocking that and pricing them as such. The reality is, driven at 10/10th's neither would be noticeably quicker, you'll just pay less for a Trophy.
