Picking up new 182

[rabbiedee]

Hi all



Just got word that my new 182 is ready to pick up tomorrow.

Is there anything that i should be looking out for before i accept it form the dealer???

Any help would be most appreciated

Black/Gold 182

ensure you get the front splitter (if youve got the cup kit), the luggage net and 2 puncture inflation aerosoles

Enjoy your car mate there a whole lot of fun!

Check every panel, every wheel and every bit of trim for damage.

My splitter was fitted but split in a couple of places and one of the cans of tyre weld had been nicked.

They forgot my front-splitter! They fitted it in 10mins tho!

Check all the paintwork for scratches etc before you drive away and check the drivers window one-touch up/down works. They forgot to do that window thing on mine - not the end of the world but they can set-it up in 2mins if they havent already.

Enjoy ur new 182.... Theyre great!

Hope all goes well tommorrow.

Remember to make sure you get all the manuals, warrenty book, cat 1 alarm cert, and AA cover bits.

Most importantly enjoy.

Check that you get the carpet mat clips (that hold your mats down).





And most of all enjoy it!

My racing blue 182 with cup packs arrives tomorrow!!

 

[Galeb]

Im so happy

What are your break-in plans, guys? Do it like manual says or drive it like u stole it as some suggests? I think Ill try somewhat in between, warm it up well and raise rpms little higher and little earlier than in manual, but not full dragracing style though.

only advice...enjoy!
