Hey Rob.
Thanks for taking the time to post this up. Always keep my cars standard, including head unit, but It's good to know. Dosen't take long to read at all. Glad your T is back to full health.
May i suggest we make it harder to become a member simply by making the joining process harder. I joined a forum yesterday where i had to answer a simple question & type in the slightly obscured letters that were printed on the screen. Makes it harder for the spambots to join.
Welcome to the World of Renault hot hatch ownership.
I'm a big fan of the 182s. The way they are so keen to change direction encourages you to press on. And for a modern 16valver the engine is a gem - with loads of mid-range grunt, so you can drive through a 30 or 40 mph speed limit in 4th and...
Hey Mark.
All the 182s are outstanding hot hatches whichever model you go for. As they were so good there are plenty about - so you can be picky and haggle hard. Cambelt kit & aux belt kit should've been done by now regardless of mileage. Check condition of brakes, tyres & steering wheel. Make...
Failures from new & 29k.
Coolant temp sensor.
CV boot.
Leaking front damper.
Vacuum pipe collapsed on brake servo. (self inflicted)
Boot only locks when it feels like it.
Badger post up your location and see if anyone with PE2's will swap wheels with you so you can check out the handling before you go throwing more money at tyres. I'll gladly do it. I'm in Wisbech. Any good to you?
I've never owned a white car but i've always been a fan. Check out this unmolested white MK2 Golf GTi it's fantastic!

A perfect spec 205 GTi with the lowest miles i've seen for roughly 20yrs. Had quite a few owners so very surprised to see the condition A1 with only 25000 mls. Generally as the number of owners builds up so does the mileage and hence the condition deteriorates. The most sought after white, non...
Around 15 yrs ago i gave a (then) colleague a lift back from the test center when he dropped off his car. Upon collection he found they had passed it on something that didn't work and failed it on something that did!
A new personal best for my T in five and a half years. From Dorchester to Wisbech, 227mls, and 41.1mpg. Wasn't trying to get it high... just turned out that way.
I suspect there will be the definitive 200 when the MK3 clio comes to the end of it's life. Hopefully be more in line with the T rather than the R262R, which didn't sell out. Partly because there was a recession and partly because it was too track orientated (no back seat & full harnesses, no...
PSN has been offline since Thursday. A friend emailed the link to this Sony video to me. It's very funny and would like to share.I own all three current generation consoles so don't think i'm some Nintendo or Microsoft fanboy. Made me laugh.
