My LY 182 FF

[JamboM3]

Hi


Not really posted up any pictures, I dont have a great camera so apologise for the pics.
I purchased the car from Steve aka Rsport cars in December and have been over the moon with it. Downsizing from my "dream" car (E46 M3 Cab) i wanted something that made me smile everytime i drove it and had some toys still.

Here are some poop pics, plans so far include Treadlines if i ever find a set i can afford
And possibly painting the interior plastics in Piano black as mine are a bit sratched

2004 LY FF 182
Janspeed Exhaust + sports cat
Alpine x305
Osram diadems

Anyway here are the old hack (Miss so much )

And heres the bean tin:

Anyway suggestions and comments are all welcome

clio looks lovely

would love an M3

I wouldn't go for Trendlines mate. Pole Positions are far superior!

Car is lovely, how does it compare to the M3?

 

[Mr Pants]

Lovely!

 

[Will.]

I love LY. They look awsome no matter which angle you look at it. I want.

 

[JamboM3]

Gaz, I like the Treadlines as they are OEM

M3 is obviously in a completely different league to the bean tin. But the Bean tin is just as much fun

Miss the power though!

Lovely choice of colour, LY is stunning

Mmmm, nom nom nom. The beemer looks awesome mate. And the LY looks superb, best colour by far, and yours looks like a prime example!

 

[DB.]

Awesome. Love LY

top colour, black dash inserts with LY decals would look good and maybe a ali foot rest.

great car mate the best colour IMO too

Think of the fuel you will save after the M3 !!

 

[JamboM3]

Thanks for all the comments i have been meaning to get an ally footrest as it seems odd to have 3 metal pedals bujt no footrest to match'

fuel savings alone make this worth it, yet im still skint. Dont understand how that happens in life!

 

[.GAZ.]

Get some DTH ITB's

 

[ScarySquirrel]

Looks great, although I'm not keen on your indicator bulbs.

Welcome to the LY Club

PSJ.

 

[Leeshez]

What a nice driveway.

 

[Reyes]

Lovely M3
I Love BMW's

 

[Christopher]

Both look great.

 

[jamier27]

Mad just sold my black m3 cab and going to view a clio v6 in berkshire tomorrow... im jambo too

PS sweet LY

 

[Chili Red]

You can never have too much LY :approve:

 

[JamboM3]

Jamie thats very strange lol

I fancied a Megane but couldnt justify fuel costs etc, very nice liquidyellow

 

[Andy-182]

Looks really nice mate!

 

[R-Sport.]

Looking good fella........

Nice to see your looking after the car--

I thought I recognised the drive!!!!!!!!

Steve

 

[freemo77]

ive never seen any other car that can pull off the yellow that some people have their 182 in. really makes it stand out. that m3 is delish though! am guessing the reason your getting rid is the running costs or similar because that is one beautiful car

 

[JamboM3]

Thanks Steve.

Yeah M3 had to go as i want to buy a house and i was spunking huge volumes of cash to put petrol in, service, tires etc. Plus it was an 02 car, getting near 80k so sold it while it still worked and still commanded decent money. Missing the BM bad, but the Clio is so much fun im not that bothered tbh! If ever i get the bmw blues i just tap the trip stalk back to mpg and breath a sigh of relief lol

 

[DebV6]

Very nice, lovely colour

 

[VeinAST]

Nice M3. Perfect colour combo. Shame you've had to get rid.

 

[Gally]

Lols at you checking the trip computer! MPg must be nice!

Not a bad replacement right enough, nowhere near comfort wise but a lot more chuckable!

 

[JamboM3]

M3 is just as chuckable
Just cant go mad in small car park like spaces with it


Thanks for all the comments

 

[JamboM3]

Small update


WIll be fitted when my OEM style Renault stickers come for the logo's etc...

Et voila:

Also go this handmade metal footplate, looks great Here's a before and an after:

AFTER:

Comments/opinions welcome

 

[Cunney]

Looks nice mate, i'm after going for OEM look dash inserts myself, thinking piano black with red stickers, make sure to update the thread when you've got them in!

 

[Andy-182]

Looks nice, liking those mods mate

 

[SteveS Cup]

Looks good!

Your M3 is identical to my mates old one! I do love them but the costs / issues with them scare me TBH... Purchase cost is one thing... but going into BMW for anything with an M3 you're coming out of there with a 4 figure invoice in your hand!!!

I fancy a facelift 330ci convertible soon me thinks.

Atleast you're enjoying the Clio... I downgraded from a 225 TT 2003 (slightly modified and I was getting around 20mpg) and I'm loving being back in a small hot hatch. They are so bloody cheap to run!

 

[JamboM3]

Agreed Steve, i don't miss the bills or worrying that it will break

 

[Ash87]

good choice on the interior bits

 

[JamboM3]

quick update, some of my carbon dash bits thankls to Gregv6 they look great!

Anyway couple of quick snaps:
Before shot:

Recieved:

Then fitted:

 

[Davis]

carbon bits look very smart! nice car overall tbf!

 

[Mr Pants]

Really nice mate.

 

[ScarySquirrel]

I think I must be one of the only people who likes the OEM silver dash inserts. Carbon looks alright though.

 

[JamboM3]

Thanks for the comments

Scarysquirel, I didn't dislike them, they just seem a tad plasticy.
