New member 182FF Scotland

[Lokkdogg]

Hello! I've just bought a 2005 FF 182. In the past I've had a 172 cup which is one of the reasons I decided to buy this (the other was a trackday at Bedford autodrome SEN circuit)
It's a one previous owner car with 65000 miles. I spent a few hours on it today and got it looking a bit better. Timing belt kit/ water pump/ dephaser pulley/ aux belt kit and service kit are in the boot getting fitted on Friday.
Plans are to make it as mint as possible, replace as much as possible and I would love a set of speedline turinis!

Welcome to the club mate. Looks really tidy. Who is doing the belts for you?

 

[Lokkdogg]

My friend is an ex Renault tech. He can do it with his eyes closed lol.

Hi, just an update. So far, the belts water pump and dephaser have been changed its also been serviced and the coolant changed!! Using Renault parts only obviously

Got the headlights buffed!

Also fitted the skoda splitter!
I've just ordered the fatty induction kit! Thanks Fatty
Got the dent man coming tomorrow to remove the 3 dents I have. More pics to follow once I've got it cleaned up! Done a few miles in it already. Very agile little car. To say I'm pleased is an understatement

Those headlights make soooo much difference

 

[Lokkdogg]

Yes I thought that aswell. Its still in granny spec at the monent in terms of tyres ect so once ive saved (hidden from the wife) a bit of money ill get some decent tyres on it and refresh the suspention it should be much better! So many things to buy for it ive made a list lol.

Ha ha. First Clio?

 

[Lokkdogg]

No I've had a 172 cup in the past, with speedline turbines!

It was good but I sold it and bought an Impreza.
I've had nearly 40 cars in total ha mostly Japanese to be fair.
