Selling my Ducati Monster 696 as bought another bike.
If anybody on here is interested, feel free to make me an offer on eBay or on here.
Cheers,
Ash

Getting a few electrical issues/gremlins with the 172.
Initially noticed it occasionally doesn't want to start, you'll just get a few clicks but no attempt to start. Then if you hold the key to start, it sounds dead but sometimes there is just enough that it kicks over.
Noticed today that it...
Properly cool these.
Anybody else got some love for them?
I’d love to have it.

Not mine, just came across it.
Surely dreaming at that price?

Getting the following on my Ph1:
Alarm beeps once after unlocking car
Alarm beeps twice after locking the car
Does the above every time. More annoying than anything.
Also noticed today after unlocking the car and only opening the boot, I heard the car lock itself after 30 seconds or so (as...
If/when I do a suspension/bush refresh on the Ph1, am thinking about getting a spare front subframe and getting that shotblasted and powdercoated to swap over at the same time.
Will I need to source a Ph1 front subframe? Do they differ to Ph2 172/182 subframes? Have tried to search but...
Well, not even 4 months have passed since I sold the Trophy, and I’m back in a Clio!
This is my 7th 1*2 - it seems I just can’t t stay away, and this side of £10k I just don’t think there is anything better for the money.
In that 4 month gap, I had an A3 S-Line TDI which I sold (tried to...
Hi all,
This is not my car, just putting it up there on behalf of my neighbour's son.
Wondered if anybody would be interested in this Clio 200 Cup he has for sale?
Details I have at the moment to hand:
200 Cup in White
Just under/over 50k miles
Recaro's
MOT expired about a week ago
He...
My A3 is for sale on eBay.
Superb and very reliable car for somebody, in great condition.
Let me know if you are interested before auction end (there is a reserve set on it).

Not my advert.
Any V6 owners interested? 😅

Not my car, just came across it on eBay.
Doesn't look to be cup packed (silver wheels), but looks tidy cosmetically.
No doubt opening a can of worms for people to discuss the price/value of it!

Looking to purchase a drill, just for basic car work/bit of DIY, nothing crazy.
Have taken a bit of time to read various reviews and research, and have pretty much drilled (sorry!) it down to two at the moment...
Just came across this kit that Whiteline are doing for 172/182 - rear anti roll bar and set of lowering springs.
Pretty good at £219 inc VAT, but their current 15% discount code “Frenzy” works on this, bringing it to £187 inc VAT!
Seems a good deal to me...
I know this must get asked a lot (I've done a fair amount of research!), but just a query on driveshafts.
Am aware that there are several different driveshafts for Ph1 172, 172 Cup, 172/182 Non-Cup and then 182 Cup.
I am looking for a new right hand/drivers side/offside 182 "Cup" spec...

Photos are terrible quality.
Particularly like the fact he mentions it could be made pristine for less than £500 :ROFLMAO: don’t know what planet he is on. Does he know it costs over £300 to replace that splitter, and the N/S rear panel needs paint!
Removed the rear bumper from my 182.
On the inside of the bumper, the polystyrene parts are held on with some small metal fasteners.
Mine turned to dust as soon as I touched them, so would like to replace.
Pic below - what are they called?
Thanks!
Looking into possibility of running 197/200 Brembo's on the 182.
I would be using 280mm discs, and running 15" 2118's, so understand I need 5mm machining off mounting face. I will also be running some spacers.
Re pads, I assume just use 197/200 pads in brand/compound of choice.
As for brake...
So, today I made a start on the job of swapping over my inlets (have a painted set to go on).
Upper inlet easy to remove.
Started tackling the lower inlet. Got most of the bolts off now, but still can’t get the inlet off.
I also have a engine mount bracket which has been painted; wasn’t able...
Quick question guys.
My MOT expires in just over a month.
Going to try and book it in within next week while I can and MOT’s still taking place.
I’ve had warning lights come on last few weeks (ABS, Serv, Traction). They go out when turn car off but will come on again.
Likely an ABS ring...
Looking into buying a pair of new driveshafts for the Trophy.
Always prefer to buy genuine stuff.
K-Tec have both sides on their site, but phoned them today, one is about 3-4 days from Renault, the other has no timescale from Renault. Need them within the next couple of weeks (ish) to go with...
So when I bought the car, noticed the right centre air vent appears to be broken in some way.
None of the slats are snapped, but they don’t appear to be connected to the slider part as can evidently be seen.
Is there a way of replacing these? Is it a dash top off job?
I don’t mind taking top...
Just want to double check that these are the correct replacement ball joints for a 182 (with Cup/Trophy suspension)?
Pretty sure this is the case as they are the 12mm ones. If I remember correctly, you can get 10mm ones too which are incorrect.
Thanks for any help.
