picking up my LY 182 tomorrow :D

[yellow_chris]

i have to share this with someone as i havent even told any of my mates
going for a wee 300mile road trip to pick up my liquid yellow 182 and im pretty excited to be back in a clio!

 

[Beef-Mc]

Have fun in Glenrothes! Roads up and down are ideal for it.

 

[Dan@M.A.D]

Got a link to the advert mate?

Hopefully it's not the dodgy one that was posted on here a week or 2 back, The engine was out of a ph1 and the pedals had been adapted for a disabled person!

 

[RDH]

I hope it isn't the one with the ph1 engine.

Congrats mate, you will love it.

everything seems fine with the car apart from a broken front splitter.. hes serviced (oil etc) and replaced the front 2 tyres, 6 months tax and 1 years mot

 

[yellow_chris]

no its not that one... i seen the add for that one yous are talking about. did some guy on here not end up buying it?

 

[Dan@M.A.D]

Yep your ok with that one ,

Lovely colour, I would have a LY over a trophy any day

Cracking choice !

 

[.Stevo.C.]

That looks really nice buddy

 

[yellow_chris]

thanks allot ... really cant wait to get it home and give it a good clean! got a heap of gtechniq and dodo juice products sitting waiting for it . i will get some photos of it sometime over the weekend

 

[ch!ppen]

Looks lovely. Enjoy it!

 

[.Stevo.C.]

Yeah get some fired up. Liquid yellow looks excellent when it's been detailed.

 

[yellow_chris]

will do mate .
What bhp realistically do 182's start of with?

 

[tanker]

Best colour!

 

[.Stevo.C.]

Low to mid 170's mate they never make book figure unless you have a freak engine which is rare.

 

[Duffman_172]

Lovely looking car mate, love the colour!!

 

[yellow_chris]

i know your not saying that in a biased way tanker lol

 

[yellow_chris]

Low to mid 170's mate they never make book figure unless you have a freak engine which is rare.

im not to clued up on clios yet so i wasnt sure. ive not been around them to much since ive had about 4 106's 2xrallyes 1xquicksilver and 1 gti, 200bhp ibiza cupra,ph2 172(but only for a few weeks) and a polo gti .

 

[Jordi17]

Great colour, how many dollars did it set you back? the asking price?

 

[yellow_chris]

no i got it a wee bit less than the asking price couldnt get much more since he had serviced,tax and changed a tyre on it.

 

[Carbon-Rain]

That makes my 182 Cup a bargin, lower millage, full service history and all receipts for all work done, every mot and tax disc to boot.
54,000 on the clock on a 05 plate, i am not going to say how much.

The important thing is your happy with what you bought and no its time to think about the mods.

 

[yellow_chris]

Im not to bothered about mods at the moment since i have no money left after buying and insuring the car lol..im wanting to just do a few subtle changes..
lower it
carbon fiber goodies( i have a cf fetish)
different steering wheel
flock the top half of the dash
maybe a different set of wheels...maybe

thats about all the plans i have for the car..im not planning any engine mods wanting to keep that side of it untouched

 

[tanker]

i know your not saying that in a biased way tanker lol

No no, not at all! Looks like its got an aftermarket exhaust system on it?

 

[yellow_chris]

i THINK...so dont quote me on this yet but..rs192 exhaust?

 

[yellow_chris]

and if it is an rs192 how will i be able to tell?

 

[Stig182]

i cant believe how overpriced it is, you can buy 2 182's in RB or any other colour for that (best colour) and still have change left over. An absolute minter sold here the other day 56k, RB, 54 plate, £2300!

 

[200 Alex]

Im very jealous of LY.

I have a RB and wish I went down the route you did now.

Enjoy it mate, they are cracking cars!

I remember my first day, 25 degrees with no aircon and a 650 mile round trip :O
