BG182

[Jon.L]

So some of you guys may remember either me or my old ph1 172

Spent a lot of time, effort and money getting it to where I wanted it to be then I sold it for this.

Which I sold for this

Then i sold that to buy this

I decided to take a step back from spending a fair amount on cars until I get the house furnished as I want it to be. So I came back to a Clio.

I purchased this BG 182 with cup packs, so far I've fitted a splitter sorted the exhaust mounts out given it a full service including new plugs. Given the paint a much needed polish and wax although I will be machine polishing it to get it to a stage I'm happy with.

Thought I had more pics of it but obviously not! The engine bay is being worked on as it's never really been cleaned to well by looks of it, the cover im spraying at the moment. Lots to do but it would be boring if I had nothing to do!

Like all the motors. The PH1 looked amazing

The 182 looks good

Ha, very similar to myself. I sold my 182 & bought a 120d. Sold that for a 130i before swapping that for a Z4. However, house ownership beckoned so bought a BG182.

Car & house look very nice.

Ph1 was awesome!

Yea kind of been round in a circle I guess! Yea miss the ph1 was so clean it was unreal. Can't wait to get back into a powerful car though as fun as the Clio is? Thinking of a TTS as I've never had a convertible and they reach 300 fairly easy with a remap, plus look the dogs on a set of s5 19s

Got round to finishing the engine cover today, looks good for a spray can job. Also painted the engine hoist points as they looked tarnished and oxidised. Next is to paint the inlet and fuel rail guard.

Looks mint for a rattle can effort.

Yea the place is mint, bit of time and effort wet sanding a polishing brings out a nice flat finish.
