Inferno Clio 182 - Bilstein coilovers fitted
Picked up my new car on sat 11th. An inferno 182! So so, sooo happy with it, a vast improvement on the saxo vts I had before it.
Its in very good condition, just needs the bonnet and front bumper painted due to a deep scratch and stonechips. Just coming up to 60k, and it has a nice bit service history with it. Belts were done 4k ago. I am loving the fuel consumption too, done about 200miles and its still on half a tank. the vts would only get me 280 to nearly a full tank (about the same size) taking it easy!
As a bad point is that it doesn't have the cup dampers.
Not a lot of changes have been done just:
Miltek cat back just now (got the decat pipe to fit)
2118's in anthracite.
Apex springs
Plans, Not much really, this is my new daily car and I still have my 106 Rallye project im working on, but here goes:
get the bad points sorted out, front end respray, front brakes need doing soon.
Fit the decat pipe
Possibly change the springs out for eibach sportlines.
Right pics to follow.
