Newbie wanting to say hi!!



  182 FF & 197 F1 #164
Hey all!

I'm a new forum user - today I went to look at a 182, and have left a deposit for it.
Hopefully picking it up on Friday *fingers crossed*!! :D Just in time for the World Series on Saturday!!!!

I'm from the West Midlands and already know Addicted (from Uni) and dazzler bear 182 lives just down the road from me!!

Currently driving a normal run of the mill 1.2 X reg Clio which I've had since I passed my test and am now (to be) the proud owner of a 2004 Black 182!! :D

Sadly, only a couple of pictures that the current owner has sent to me.
I thought about taking some myself today but I just got carried away falling in love with it instead!!! ;)
Friday can't come quick enough!

Thanks for all the welcomes!!
Just become a member as well!

Not got any plans for the Clio at the moment... I'm open to suggestions from anyone though!

Can't wait to get my hands on it and give it a good clean! Are there any products that you can recommend?
And, I'm ashamed to say I don't know much about the exhaust system apart from it's a Scorpion - does this help at all??
All of the information I was being given - some of it I just didn't take in/remember!

Also, while I'm here. Three of the alloys need a little TLC as they have obviously been kerbed. Can anyone recommend anywhere near the West Midlands that will be able to do them? Being anthracite will it limit where I can take them?
Managed to knock a couple of hundred off the selling price so that I can put it towards the alloy repairs.

Welcome along Tash,
I'll give some poetry a bash.
You've not been her long
no time to prepare a song
Your new car looks superb,
Good luck with the wheel refurb.

Re wheel refurb, I had a couple of spare Trophy Turinis done in the correct anthracite by Paul Smart at the following:

Was very pleased with price, turnaround etc. They can do them while you leave the car with them if you need to.

Thank you again for all the welcomes!! And the poem from Mace!! Blue Mez.... why bother waiting until the 2nd thread - might as well start as you mean to go on!! ;)

And thank you is1 for your recommendation. I obviously don't just want the alloys to just be repaired, I want to be happy with the results and for them to be the correct colour. I spoke to one company in Tewkesbury who told me 182 alloy colour is 'notoriously difficult to match' and that they would basically do their best - needless to say I won't be taking my alloys there!!! I was hoping that someone would recommend somewhere they had been with their own anthracite alloys, so thank you! :D

Anyway, welcome tash. Nothing to fear here :D if you don't mind banter ofcourse.
