Latest 182 Mod...:(

...not what it looks like thank goodness!

Release bearing on the clutch went the other evening in Bangor - so went this morning to Renault to be fixed. Unfortunately it is a common problem with the 172/182 as the gearbox and clutch are known weak points

all was well until we realised we would trail the front bumper off by putting it onto the trailor...

after discussing winding up coilovers etc my mum piped up in the background "why dont you just take the bumper off"

ten minutes later it was done and on trailor! just in case anyone saw it on route to boucher this morning and feared the worse!

a photo!

Is that a badger looking at your car?

Make sure you check the milage on the car when you drop it off.

I've heard horror stories about CH Reno, crashing customers clios previously.

Most of the Scottish lot drive accident repaired cars. It doesn't bother them.
