Hi, new 182 owner in Leicester



  Clio 182
Hi,
Last Saturday i picked up my 182 with both cup packs.

I've had 3 clio's before including two 1.2's and a 1.5 90.

My last car was an x type 2.2d sport so switching over to petrol after 5 years is a bit weird

Heres the car:

Already done a few things, the exhaust was hanging as someone butchered the support and welded the exhaust to the remaining fragment. It snapped and was making an awful noise so ive had that welded back with a rubber hanger for the time being.

Hopefully i get the new supports and mounts soon and fix the mess.

Took out the basic parrot and put in my alpine head unit.
The interior silver dash strips looked a bit sorry for themselves so wrapped them with 3m carbon till i get some new ones or get a chance to spray them.

Had to re-fit the rear numberplate because it was hanging. Strangely it had some sort of superglue like adhesive holding it on.

Need to sort the brakes soon and give it a good going over with the rotary, especially the headlights.

Found lots of interesting things on here already so thanks and hopefully I'll get to meet a few people from Leicester.

Thanks for reading

Welcome along mate, only had mine 4 weeks and so far fitted a replacement exhaust and sorted out a loose gear linkage but feels good to tidy a car up after you have bought it.

Any major plans in the future?

Cheers! Not really got anything massive planned. Want to get rid of all the annoying bits and give it a good detailing.

After that i guess my finances will dictate whats next.
