Probably not everyone's cup of tea but i thought i'd chuck up a few pics of my MR2.
I originally bought this as a run around while i waited to go travelling with the intention of using it until the tax and MOT ran out then selling it spares/repairs.
I didn't end up travelling and have really...
My MR2 is going to the body shop for a few weeks and while its gone my mum has said I can use her old merc.
She has the merc insured but her insurance company wont cover me as I’m under 25.
My insurance company have said they can add it as a temporary car to my policy for £48 a month but in...
Possibily the most boring (although very reliable) car in the world

Wonder how well its been built?
Hi
My 182 seems to have developed a droning noise (I'm saying droning as its too low pitched to be a whine) and I'm a bit worried that it could be the gearbox on its way out. :(
Its most noticeable in 5th after 3K RPM but does die off as the revs rise. Its also noticeable in 4th around 4K RPM...
Might be of use for someone on here

Had my RB about 3 months or so now and im not sure whether or not I like the stripes on it. I cant help thinking it would look a lot cleaner without the white stripes on it but I don’t want to take them off and then regret it as I've heard it’s a ballache to put them on.
The other issue is the...
Had my car in at Birchdown yesterday and they've advised that the centre section of my Scorpian RS192 has got two cracks in it (quite common from what I gather)
They seemed to think I should be able to get it welded but I wondered whether its worth trying to claim under the lifetime guarantee...
Would 14" wheels fit a 182 or would they not clear the brakes? Only asking as ill need a spare set so i can my turinis refurbed and could get a set of 14" steelies for next to nothing.
Can anyone recommend somewhere in / near Shropshire i can get my turini's refurbed / powdercoated.
Want somewhere decent really that will take the tyres off and refurb the whole alloy.
Cheers

Had the 182 a few weeks now. Its had a good polish and i've treated it to some new shoes so thought I would throw up a few pics. Excuse the quality they are from my Iphone
and with the new wheels
My engine management light came on Saturday (the emissions light I believe on the right hand side). I understand its usually a coil pack / 02 sensor of some sort but the car is running perfectly, starts well hot or cold and returned 44mpg on a steady motorway drive back from Lancaster, part way...

Would the middle bit fit into my 182 gear knob as mines worn out :(

As title really. I'm getting some turinis from a 172 cup for my 182, will I need different bolts (have standard 182 alloys atm) or are they the same?
Cheers
