My 182 - :)

[TinaHingas]

evening all.

picked up the 182 yesterday - £5995 69k miles full dealer service history.

cant fault the Suzuki garage that i bought it from - getting the CAM belt changed next week along with a service also got a new tyre and tracking done before collecting along with a "valet"....not very clean tho lol.

so....

set about cleaning the weapon today. here are some pics....

before :

annoying chip on alloy:

after:

interior

not sure if photobuket is working correctly so let me know if you cant see the pics.

list to do:
front fog light cracked - thinking scrappy for a new one or CAF
touch up alloy
mazda 6 ariel
engine cleaned and polished
panel filter
cup splitter

looking to keep the car nice n clean and not go over the top - suggestions please!

 

[ABOO]

No dis-respect mate, but I presume you've done your homework on cambelt change?? If not, need to start sharpish......

 

[lau2908]

pics dont work?

 

[StevenMc29]

Cant see the pictures but plans sound good. If you can get hold of a cup splitter a fabia splitter may be what you are after. Do a search and you'll see how similar it is to a cup splitter at a fraction of the price.

 

[TinaHingas]

yeah not sure about the pics - will sort now. cam belt booked in for next thurs made sure that it would be done will fix pics now

 

[Will.]

Who have you booked cambelt with?

 

[JCC]

You can see the pics if you right click then click open image in new tab.

Looks smart, did you get this from Phoenix by any chance?

 

[TinaHingas]

errr yes JCC is it yours!?

 

[JCC]

Nah it's not I had a 172, my mate works at Phoenix and told me they had one in, he knows I'm a Clio geek lol

[TinaHingas]

sounds good and drives well - very happy with it a bit better than 09 suzuki swift that i had

 

[TinaHingas]

yes i would think that all are being done - i said to the garage about both. i will ask tomorrow when i am in.

[TinaHingas]

[TinaHingas]

[Damo_Sport]

[lau2908]

Do u know who's doing the belts ?

the suzuki garage are sorting it out - bits are orders so i presume that they are doing it - they have a reno mechanic in the shop tho.

Are they screws in the top corners of the number plates?

Paul

yes and just realised that when i put on my cut down plate these will show
