New 182 owner in Lincolnshire

[182Harry]

Hey up guys, newbie here. Here's the car.....

Bought it in November, had 7,400 miles on the clock, good times, and is standard for now.
Plans for FCS are KTR coilovers, new wheels and a yozza exhaust but will be making a progress thread once it all begins.

Well up for meets in the area and getting involved.
Ciao

Hello , looking good that's v low miles thought mine was ok at 43 k lol
where abouts in lincoln are you ?

 

[182Harry]

I'm about 15 miles away but regularly head out there. I was shocked at the mileage too.
Where abouts in Lincoln are you then? Cool to see another newbie from Lincoln.

 

[walker182]

North hykeham just down the road.

 

[Whiteley]

Hi and welcome. From Lincoln too.

MEGA low mileage that, enjoy it

 

[leeds_182]

Nice low miler!

 

[Melissa]

Hey Hey, another Lincoln member here too, been a few join up this past week

Enjoy dude! x

 

[182Harry]

Thanks everyone, I'm loving it already :approve: was used by a 60 year old man at weekends and it is mint, feels as though it's never been over 3k rpm, nice. Are local meets regular then or......?

 

[Whiteley]

Not been any meets in Lincoln for a while, we'll get something sorted once it warms up a bit i think.

Few of us going to a meet on the 28th if you fancy a drive out, see here: http://www.cliosport.net/forum/showthread.php?t=484117

Don't let the mileage get in the way of your servicing. It'll need a cambelt and aux belt later on this year (72k or 5 years, whichever first), though I'm sure you know that already .

Yeah, get in to the meet on the 28th dude. Me and Whiteley will be leaving from Lincoln itself if you fancied it
Was the old guy you bought it from, from Lincoln btw? Seen an old guy and his wifey jetting about in one before now

 

[182Harry]

Don't worry Whiteley whenever I get a new car I always get them to change them before I buy it so it's done and logged!
I'll see what I can do about that meet then, more people joining in the area is good, hopefully get a meet on our doorspteps sorted soon!
I bought it from a Renault garage but I'm sure the log book says Grantham so he could have been about a couple of times, had a private plate.

 

[Mark R27]

Welcome. Nice choice of car and mileage is a bonus too

 

[182Harry]

Cheers Mark. I've just read all 37 pages of the raceland coilovers thread (yawn) and can safely say I'll still be getting the KTR coilovers. THink there is going to be enough people about Lincoln for a local meet surely???
Does anyone in Lincoln have either KTR coilovers or a yozza exhaust?

 

[Whiteley]

Used to have a Yozzasport exhaust on my old 182, see here:

Walker^^^^ will vouch for how it sounds!

 

[walker182]

I want a yozza but im afraid ive got the 72k service overdue.

 

[jim cook]

Welcome to Cs . great mileage on that enjoy it

 

[182Harry]

You got anymore pics of your old 182 Whiteley? Quite fancy those wheels. Are they the prima racing ones? Any details?

 

[Whiteley]

Have a search through my old threads, hundreds of pics of it floating about on the forum. The black wheels are Williams wheels briefly borrowed from my mk1 track car.

 

[danjf]

hi and welcome im in lincs too

 

[182Harry]

They look awesome Whiteley, if ever you fancy selling them.......lol.
Nice to see everyone's friendly here and great to see so many locals, not used to it compared to my old car's forums.

Bizarrely I've just realised I spotted you ages ago last year back when you still had the 182, I remember the K-Tec and Yozza stickers. No idea why I didn't make a thread about it...

Loads of Lincoln members now, must be a pretty good ratio considering how small this place is.

Welcome new guys.

JB is a legend fact

 

[182Harry]

Indeed Washington. Gotta be a meet there sometime soon.

 

[JamieG]

I have a Yozza on my 172.

We will get a Lincoln meet sorted for sometime nearer spring i think, when weather fairs up a bit

 

[182Harry]

Sounds good to me, really want to hear a yozza in the flesh

 

[JamieG]

Where you based?

 

[182Harry]

Woodhall spa but head into Lincoln alot. Heading in tomorrow I reckon

Im sure i saw u not last weekend but the one before. was at tattershall karting. saw a black 182 in woodhall spa on the way.

 

[182Harry]

It could have been me indeed, good times, lol. It's great to hear of so many local people, as I've said I'm not used to it!

 

[clio_luke]

welcome

 

[Whiteley]

I'm in Woodhall every now and then with work, we've got a site there. Will keep them peeled!

 

[182Harry]

Where abouts are you sited? Sadly enough I work in Budgens there for now so may see it there too

 

[Whiteley]

Erm, roughton moor i think it is, horncastle road. I'm mainly based in leadenham though.

 

[walker182]

I go to budgens everytime we work in woodhall nice sandwiches mmm.

 

[Nayparkin]

Welcome welcome mate. I work at Coningsby so i know where your about. Live in Lincoln though.

Is that karting place at Tattershall any good? Go karting meet for the lincoln lot sounds like a beltin idea if i do say so myself.
However if were gonna go for a drive lets do it before and not after haha

 

[182Harry]

Freshly made baps? They are pretty damn good. Bacon and sausage rolls at the deli are very tasty too, yum

 

[182Harry]

Sounds good about the karting and completely agree about driving first, lol. Definitely signs for a big meet

 

[Nayparkin]

You can bring the baps!!!!
