New Here! Matt's Silver 182.

[MattWalker]

Hi everyone, new here and new to the Clio scene altogether!

Purchased myself a 182 last week, feel like I got a good deal. Majority of the car seems to be in very good condition, drives really well, done 84k, FSH, cambelt and dephaser done 12k ago. Paid £1500 for it.

This is upgrading from a (dare I say it) Ford KA, so as you can imagine the change for me is massive!
Not too sure what my plans are for it as of yet but I'm more than open to suggestions. And I'll attach some pictures on it now.

I know it needs a good clean, which will come in the next few days, as well as headlight restoration and cleaning up the seatbelts.
I have no idea, why previously it has been lowered further at the front than the rear.

So anyway just wanted to shout hello to everyone!

Looking good.

If you're handy with a DA you can get those headlights looking like new, or you can get hold of a 3M kit for them. Makes a world of difference to the appearance of the front end. It already looks to be lowered a tad so possibly been done on springs. Look low enough to have been cooksports tbh.

Nice buy.

First mod has to be a Skoda Fabia splitter. Less than £15 delivered and finishes the front bumper off nicely!

Welcome to the club mate! Nice deal you got there. Who were the belts done by?

Just noticed, you'll want to get some proper washer jet blanks too!

Gonna be doing the lights in the next few days. Cleaned the seatbelts yesterday and they've come up really nice! Also replaced the dull interior lights with LED's and will look to do the rear plate light too.

Can't remember off the top of my head, but I know that the garage isn't one that's frequently listen on here, however they were done 4 years ago now, so will be looking to get them done again within the next 6 months anyway so not a problem!
