    Front and rear bumper

    Hi Kelvin., Second hand parts from a 182 being broken is your best bet. Side skirts normally go for £30 a side and bumpers are £100 or less. Mike

    hello experts

    Just to add. No idea if brake servos are LHD and RHD specific. Autodoc is suggesting this is a LHD part. Alternatives are buying one off a 182 being broken or getting one rebuilt by a specialist restorer.

    I'm struggling with the golf and how it can be worth £34k more than a similar golf that hasn't had a bare shell restoration.

    Trophy in Enfield, London

    I didn't think it would take twenty years and buying one for me to spot my first Trophy. My son was more excited and then a bit upset that we went out in the VW.

    Trophy in Enfield, London

    Spotted a trophy leaving Enfield, London @ 3pm today via the Ridgeway. From doing a search I couldn't work out who this was on the forums. Terrible photo of AO55HNJ from my dashcam.

    Wanted - Front/rear spring

    I'd suggest cleaning and putting rust inhibitor on the shell before the rust takes hold while replacing the springs. Where is the car being exported too?

    Spotted for sale on eBay...

    In that case, I'm glad I went with a pure motorsport exhaust. Was told it wasn't an asbo exhaust.

    Spotted for sale on eBay...

    Shame this didn't come up before I bought a new exhaust for #256. Meant to be one of the better aftermarket exhausts for the 182. £440 collected Yozza exhaust

    Little wonders

    A blown engine makes it an ideal candidate for 595 Arbarth engine swap.

    Looking to buy Speedline Turinis

    Wrong offset for trophy wheels. Sets of 182 cup turini's come up fairly often on the Facebook clio sale groups. May need a respray but the easiest way to get them in Et45 offset

    Brembo Brakes

    They will work and quite competitively priced. Quite a few people fit the Brembo high carbon discs to their car. Link below so you can compare sizes to the ebay ones. https://www.kamracing.co.uk/brembo-brake-discs-renault-clio-mk2-rs-172-rs-182.html

    I was close to buying one back in 2009 and ended up buying a cheap Avensis as I bought my first flat instead. https://www.iconicauctioneers.com/2003-ford-focus-rs-rec14677-1-nec-0325?pn=2&el=32129&pp=100

    Continental Premium Contact 6

    Quick write up as I have my hands full tonight. Not had a chance yet to try a car on PS3 tyres so won't be able to give a comparison. Grip - no difference between wet and dry grip. On B roads I've not found the tyres limiting the cars capabilities and I've yet to find the limits of grip. Since...

    Trophy Sales on Collecting Cars

    Could this be exlenanded to track Trophy sales through any car auctions.? I believe three or more sold via other auctions last year. Although I buy quite a few parts from Facebook marketplace it's still not my preference as the common scams and issues persist.
