Hi from Hertfordshire

[Rik95]

Hi everyone
Recently bought my car around 2 months ago after owning a 1.2L clio, after seeing a racing blue 182 come the opposite direction in my local area fell in love with the colour and had to get one!
Its had a little service and a good look under by Mark Fish which came back with a few very minor issues but luckily nothing major hidden underneath!
Done a trackday at Llandow a few weeks ago with some friends and the car performed great apart from some brake fade that limited my track time.
Future plans are putting on a Skoda front splitter which i have already bought, lowering springs and a set of speedline 2118's :grinning:

Welcome aboard mate.

Car looks great!,

RB is the best colour for the 182 on my opinion.

Where abouts in Hertfordshire are you from?

Welcome btw

 

[MarkMchugh]

welcome mate , I'm new myself there's a lot of nice members to help you out on here mate its great

 

[Jekyll]

You'll find that members stay for years, and most don't even own a Clio anymore!

Here is a great place to be. It's a laugh but it's also very helpful if you have an issue/query

Welcome mate, looking tidy that!

Any ideas on spring choice yet?

Mark Fish says Eibach but not too sure on what springs to have. I ran the 2118's on my trackday and being a 15inch rim there was a big gap between the wheels and the arch, so on that basis if i were to put on a full set of speedlines wheels id rather go for a more lowering spring.

Looked in to H&R's mate? 40 / 30 drop.

No i have not, when it comes closer to the time of doing this i will look into it more but as always when you get a new car theres a lot of things you'd like to do!

Looks lovely. Still would love to own an RB one some time.

Which part of Herts are you in?

If you go Eibach you can import them for £110 from Germany

Keep an eye out in the South East meet section mate. We quite often pop over to North Weald airfield for breakfast.

I'll have to as well. Always been meaning to get involved with a meet but never seen one I've been available for.

Yeah the North Weald breakfast meets are pretty good. Always a pretty good turnout and in the summer more often than not there's something going on over there

Yes will definitely attend some as its only 10mins away from my house. Usually some sprints happening there which will be nice to see
