Sold my 182... Then bought it back!

[.J.a.m.e.s.]

A few of you may remember my Titanium 182. I bought it when it was on only 8'000 miles. To cut a long story short, I sold it and after a year and a half and 9'000 miles I bought it back from the guy I sold it too. The mileage is 39'000 now and runs like a dream.

So far I have done the following Mods

Fitted front number plate
Silver Visions front and back
Small aerial
Cup Spoiler
Restoration to front headlights
Fresh Spray of RS Grill, Rear bumper Insert, Wing mirrors, Front diamond, Wipers and plastic trim below windscreen, (Matt black)
New rear bumper light
Alloy footrest
Re-Trimmed Alcantara Hand break and A pillars Pictures don't do them justice CONTACT AUSTIN-128 if you want some (highly recommend)
Front Splitter
New Style Renault Sport badge
Its also got the yozza sport exhaust and has been dropped 40mm which i did before I last sold it.

Next Mods to come

Cup Racer Tow eye (in the post)
Cup brake light (in the post)
New mint silver gear nob insert *if anyone has any please get in touch*
Two mint 182 silver alloys *if anyone has any please get in touch*
New windscreen - am i best claiming on my insurance?
New bonnet due to dint/possible guy i know says he can remove it for £30 (anyone done this before)
Paint calipers silver

I have a lot of time for this car, I'm thinking pop and bang RS tuner, maybe a show cage... i'm open to opinions and ideas!
If you dont like something please say!
More to come!

Would only put a cage in for track, show cages waste of time. IMO

Wouldn't have the pop n bang but again that's me. Other than that the car looks nice, very low mileage too.

Thanks, how come you wouldnt have the pop and bang?

 

[George182]

Because it's rubbish

 

[.J.a.m.e.s.]

Because it's rubbish

Whats rubbish about it, performance, sound or both?

 

[George182]

If you have the catalytic converter in - it will be ruined by it. As will the silencers.

And it's just chavvy IMO

 

[imprezaworks]

I think you would get tired of the noise quite quickly, car looks good though mate

 

[plymcl172]

[George182]
