Owned this 3 weeks now and abolutely love it!
Cheap to run, comfy to drive and easy to drive
Bit of a marmite car but tbh i'm doing too many miles and felt bad running them up on the Fiesta as it is too good a car to run silly miles up on. Ran up 3.5k in 6 weeks. Done 2k in 3 weeks in the Fab...
Spotted in Glenrothes
No idea the road name as was following a sat nav when you passed me, was outside a pub on the road that goes up past the St Andrews First aid base
Grew bored of the Blue ST and went on the hunt for a Mondeo ST220
After looking for a few i found one. Then was busy for a few days. By the time came i could phone about it it had sold and the guy had traded this in for it. Seen it on Pistonheads fell in love with it and had to have it
It's...
As per title seriously swaying back towards another 182
I loved that car in the short time i had it and got it looking how i wanted just by dropping it 40mm. I've found an 04 plate with 18k for a good price. If i can get the garage to do the belts and throw in a 2 year warranty for the price...
Spotted a Racing BLue 182 at the Beach in Aberdeen tonight. I'd came up a random drive with my mate. Drove past u a couple times in my Fiesta ST had FiestaClubScotland.co.uk on the back windows
Looked nice and clean mate. I miss my 182 :(
Slow progress of my 2008 57 Performance Blue ST
Had it 3 weeks now got some basic plans for it. Will be subtle tho as i love the ST how it looks now and just wanna add to it's looks
Planned Mods over time
Tint the front windows light smoke to tie in with the rear
Red pinstriping on grilles...
Passed u today in High Blantyre just passed the old folks home down from the Bla-an-tir inn can't mind the name of the road. By the time i'd realised it was u it was too late
Anyone ever seen it?
WP04 UNH
I know it went to First Choice in Govan then it disappeared from their and went to Anniesland Trade and Save and sported new silver bullets to replace my orange ones and i'd assume the interior trim got changed bak to silver also from orange.
Sold it with a...
Tonight going onto the M74 going towards the park then again going back towards Hamilton, sit right on my bumper again and u will wear it. I'm sure u nudged me so u better not have caused damage.
If u read this i had a 182 i know a standard Fiesta ST has no chance against them
Well took some pics straight after i picked up the car from the garage. Done over 200 miles yesterday lol
De tangoing it next weekend, removing the stan palmer.co.uk sticker tomorrow at work along with the ST badge on the grille altho it has kinda grew on me it's infront of the cold air feed...
As the title says after 3 months i've had enough of the Mondeo and traded it in. It was working out dearer to run than the 182. £10 achieving as little as 60 miles when the 182 would get 80+ to £10 and 50 hammering it around town.
Sadly i never got another 182 as the Mrs isn't a fan and...
Wonder if he's fixed bank 1 lambda and the gearbox lol
Miss this car :(

Well after 4 months of my Clio 5th gear went so i traded it in last month for this.
I was gonna have to sell the Clio this year anyways so in a way the gearbox saved me splashing more cash on it lol
Had it a month now and loving every minute of it, altho i do miss the Clio. Definately gonna...
Spotted in Glasgow today. Blue 197 was down at the IRS building part and J16 CKD was parked on the big hill at the NCP at a uni building lol.
Sorry i don't know Glasgow that well
J16 CKD am sure i know u haha
Well after only having my 182 for 4 months it decided to kill 5th gear. So it now needs a new gearbox.
Can't be bothered with the hassles of getting a new gearbox so i've traded it in. It goes on Monday for an 06 plate Mondeo ST TDCi in Black
I've loved every minute of my 182 and had the...
My 5th gear went in my gearbox last night so i'm now having to drive with 1st to 4th only.
Do our gearboxes have the speedo drive inside or outside the boxes?
I have found a gearbox on ebay but it says in the ad
"Clio 172/182 gearbox, JC5 for the later models that do not have a speedo drive...
55 Plate on Glasgow Road today just after 4pm.
Never seen it around the area before. Was freaky as me and my mate were talking about how a nice a colour it was just before we seen it lol
Some wee updated pics of my 182 since i got it 3 months ago
It's now lowered 40mm on Ultimate springs which i got off ebay. They were advertised as Apex with a yellow picture then when they arrived they were red and clearly not Apex's. But tbh the ride quality is good and the height is nice but...
Story is my work fixed 2 punctures one in each wheel at the bak of my 182. Informed me i need new pads. Bought new pads and went to fit them today to find they have threaded my locking wheel nut bolt and the hub! And the other 3 bolts are that tight i cannot move them.
I told them under no...
