Well, heres our routine.... Wash my black 182 - park it outside and the birds have a field day. Looks like a dalmation by the following day - more white, streaky sh*t than black... Wash the wifes arctic blue 182 - park it outside in the same spot and theres feck all. About one blob of bird...

I dont see them often - usually 172s and other 182s. The only one I used to see was Chris n Nics RUG-mobile, but even thats proving elusive these days?! ;) D.

It will probably mean that the residuals will keep up well - meaning more expense for people like me who want one for my next car! As SimonV6 says - its a shame they didnt bow-out with a final mad 10 production cars with serious performance upgrades. Having said that, circa £27k is daft for a...

Gotta envy the Swiss for their roads & Trophy combination. What a place that must be to drive, up in the mountains..... D.

About 8am this morning. Looked nice, clean and standard too. :D Didnt spot any CS stickers as it went past, but its worth a shot... D.

V6s are just superb. Ive never been in one, but Im aiming to get one once Ive done with 182 ownership! D.

I dont know if the warm weather is making it worse, but in the past few days Ive heard a really loud creaking noise when the steering is on full lock. I notice it most turning into our lane, which is a tight left-hand turn - definite 1st gear job. Time to do a forum search methinks...

That is called Mr. Sod and his Bloody Law, m8! D.

Spotted on the opposite side of the M61 - roughly around junc. 7 heading Bolton way. We were coming up the M61, back up towards the M65. Would have been around 4.45pm.... D.

..... one that went around corners better than lesser 182s..... ;) D.

Did he spot you though? :cool: D.

Another classic bites the dust..... :cry: D.

Some quality pictures there m8. Wish Id been there! D.

Whoa - one so close to home?! Whereabouts were you at the time, m8? D.

LOL m8! :D Yep, it was caked in sheeeit. Not so much down to my driving style, but the bloody lane that we live on. The moment we even have a slight bit of rain, any traffic simply mucks up the sides. Cleaned it last night, only to find that the car resembled a litter tray for the birds in...

Dr Kerbs is at which race track again? ;) D.

It was a 172 that I saw though, m8... :confused: D.

His cleaning is SO good, members of the general public want to take pictures of it.... :p D.

Approx 5pm. At the lights where you can turn into Mercedes & Rapid Fit. I was stuck in traffic on the other side in a 320 Beemer. Couldnt see any CS stickers when I was rubber-necking though (nearly went into the arse-end of the truck in front whilst looking! :oops:) D.

Black wheels look fantastic on most cars. They go well with the colour of your car as well, m8... D.

Whereabouts were you parked FM? I was way out in the sticks - near the petrol station at Asda..... D.

Not sure of model/spec. Had a high-mounted spoiler on the arse-end and sounded quite loud... D.

FM - see, thick as pig-sh*t me for directions?! ;) Chris, nope - didnt see you m8. Wheres the RUG???? Some woman in a 54 plate silver 182 came alongside Ensor this morning and I waved at her. Just looked at me completely blank...... Probably thought "theres another one of those Clio driving...

Wheres Grimshaw Park, m8? Im sh*t with directions around here! :oops: D.

Lee - good, positive responses there m8. And you must be bloody smug having that 007 number - jammy sod! ;) The rawness of the 182 Trophy definitely appeals. My ideal Evo would be a VI RS Sprint, which if Im lead to believe doesnt even come with a boot carpet as standard - so I do appreciate...

I personally dont see the point unless, you want exclusivity or youre a trackday person....... or both. Coming from another make and model of car to the 182 Trophy - fine, but to go from a 182 to a Trophy wouldnt be worth it in my book. I think it was Lee who said that it laps approx a second...

Is it? Learn something new everyday! Cheers, D.

Im lazy - I know and cant be bothered reading the manual, but...... Whats that little button thing for underneath the passenger-side wing mirror. I only noticed it this weekend while washing it. The drivers mirror hasnt got one? D.

Havent any of you guys heard of delivery vans? I wouldnt lower the status of a Vee by carting around odds & ends from Ikea or even new tyres! :D D.

What pisses me off is that they get nothing from it. Its not like knicking a stereo or alloys or something... Why, why, why???! They all need booting in the bollox, if you ask me. Jain had her MR2 keyed very badly and there were a few suspicious marks on her Cooper S after that. Total...
