But it was time to say good bye and try something new :)

so i picked myself up a RB 182 and i love it so nice to drive and the handling is much better then my saxo! and really nice to drive.

i have a few plans in mind for it Eg brake upgrades, and engine and handling, but coming up soon going to give it a service and getting it like its new!

Thanks for looking!

Photos now working!

That sunday drive pic is a blinder mate!
Got any plans for non performance mods??

thanks mate yea i love that photo! yea im thinking to go down the same lines as the saxo!

nice mate, its all about the french cars!!

Looks good, rare to see one with the standard exhaust

New grill would look insane on it I think! Keep the badge though, not a fan of debadged grills! Keeping it the same colour?

Really nice mate! I want to get one of these as my next car, need a few more years no claims first though I think! haha :p

yea the exhaust is not in good shape so will need replacing soon!

This looks tidyyyyyyyy!
Few carbon fibre touches - and you're on to one classy vehicle!
Keep it clean, keep it fresh!

what are you going to fit when you change it?

Very nice car, can vouch on how it drives compared a saxo/106 as it drove alot nicer than my old 106 GTI


Love those pics too.... ;)

yea thats the plan!

not sure yet i have been looking around i would like something a bit like my saxo zorst but theres nothing around like that, so might just get a new OE back box with decat.

Wouldnt bother with OEM as its extremely expensive (700 quid or something last time I investigated) and its mild steel. You really need to drop the rear beam down to remove the standard exhaust anyway, its only a few bolts and the shock bolts, as the standard exhaust doesnt have a joint between the rear boxes and the back of the cat. You could just the cut OEM exhaust is what I did and the remove. Most aftermarket systems have a join there so its easy to fit, plus they are usually stainless and unless you go for something ultra top end like an orbisound exhaust you can get a decent brand system for 350 to 500 quid or so. Yozzas are popular as are the scorpion systems, plus others like Ktec etc etc

thanks for the info! yea i was looking at scorpion systems as there well priced! im just keeping my eye out for a good used one to come up as i dont want to pay top price haha i think my mini might need welding as well haha

RS192 can be a pain to fit, I've got the single box SRN019 I think it is with imola tips. Dead easy to fit that as its single box. Was about £350~, be cheaper second hand its just finding them

Tidy 182 mate, if your thinking about an exhaust id go for a yozza sound pretty sweet!

Did you go to Swindon tunnel by any chance that Sunday? The one with the strange named pub at the end of the road? lol

what one man?? i dont think i have done any tunnel runs in it yet as the zorst is blowing!!

Ohh off the second motorway junction go out Liddington way?

Shame about the exhaust mate, just have to get a nice noisy one to replace it haha ;)
