My new RB 182!

[Mister_G]

Hey guys,

Picked this up last night, pretty chuffed! High mileage but very well looked after, few scratches and dents but I'm happy with it as it is.

 

[George@RTR_Parts]

Looks well that, enjoy it!

 

[Chip-mk1]

epic colour, think our next addition might be an RB

 

[Mister_G]

I'd really have liked a LY or a bean, but they're pretty damn rare! Besides, got this one off someone that I know so I know that it's been treated right. Masses of receipts over the last 12 months, so should see me right!

 

[Jack-D]

Very nice mate!
Same as me regarding ly or bean, when mine popped up for sale so local I couldn't say no.

 

[Mister_G]

Thanks Jack,

Could ideally do with front and rear bumper re-spray, and a dent taking our of passenger rear quarter. It's been tapped out before but still visible.

Main thing is it's had dephaser, cambelt kit and aux kit done in Jan by a reputable Renault master tech, had all new shocks and springs recently, ball joints, tie rods etc... etc... 4x new uniroyal rainsport.

Alloys are OK could do with a refurb but... I'll probably kerb them again lol!

Very nice buddy rb stands out so much

 

[Jordy1982]

Such a lovely colour.

 

[Mister_G]

So, any one local? I'm based around Nuneaton, Hinckley, and Leamington Spa.

 

[Richyy182]

The williams lads have a trophy and are from coventry.

Me and the mrs are from nottinghamshire so not too far away.

I'm in Lutterworth,literally just down the road... Missus works in Nuneaton!

 

[Mister_G]

Sweet! Lutterworth is about, what, 10 minutes if that!? I rarely go over that way, but seeing as you have a LY I'm sure I'd spot you easily enough if I ever did! lol

 

[Edges]

Yeah 10-15 I'd say! I see a few 172/182's around here but mines the only yellow one RB wont be hard to spot either!!

Sweet! I've probably seen you around to be fair. I'll keep my eyes peeled!

Picked it up from some red-neck in Leicestershire. He even sabotaged the boot lock so he could try and steal it back. Little did he know, that I rigged the engine to cut out if he flashed the full beams in close succession on the part-ex I gave him! Learn him!

For those of you now concerned... I picked up the car from classicsheepflavour... lol

 

[Leeshez]

Mighty fine example .

 

[Mister_G]

Thanks! Still trying to get used to being able to legitimately drive in the 'fast' lane... bit of a step up from my 1.2!! lol

 

[GW200]

Very nice mate. Just out of interest what did you pay for it?

Hi there another RB 182 here, I'm not very local but I do pop up to Hinckley every now and then as the marine fish shop I use is over there.

 

[Rob]

Very clean looking motor that.

 

[Mister_G]

Ah, on the A5?

 

[Coops Mk1]
