[quote][i]Originally posted by Kyle T[/i] Few jobs this weekend: 1) Fitted some mates-rates standard cup springs supplied by Simon_16v. The lowering springs on the car looked very new, but they're unbranded and drove like crap. Will probably keep them and include them in the sale of the car when I shift it on.

Unlike the Subaru, there's no slotted holes or any obvious way to mess up the alignment when swapping springs over, so won't bother getting it done anywhere. 2) Fitted a new bonnet spring/catch. Was about £12 from eBay and has fixed my bonnet, it's now only a single person job to open it :o [url=https://flic.kr/p/BNMzv4][img]https://farm6.staticflickr.com/5819/23501938433_cef8615d70_b.jpg[/img][/url][url=https://flic.kr/p/BNMzv4]IMAG0269[/url] by [url=https://www.flickr.com/photos/83474468@N03/]Kyle Townend[/url], on Flickr 3) Cleaned it for the first time! Only chucked a bucket over it and a quick wipe down with AutoGlym Ultra Deep Shine and the pictures do it a bit too much justice tbh :| [url=https://flic.kr/p/CKgNzo][img]https://farm6.staticflickr.com/5639/24118536336_4d86fbbe16_b.jpg[/img][/url][url=https://flic.kr/p/CKgNzo]IMAG0274[/url] by [url=https://www.flickr.com/photos/83474468@N03/]Kyle Townend[/url], on Flickr [url=https://flic.kr/p/CksmwN][img]https://farm6.staticflickr.com/5679/23848999050_cbb170c439_b.jpg[/img][/url][url=https://flic.kr/p/CksmwN]IMAG0273[/url] by [url=https://www.flickr.com/photos/83474468@N03/]Kyle Townend[/url], on Flickr [url=https://flic.kr/p/BQ4Vhb][img]https://farm2.staticflickr.com/1509/23516443254_a74f84cd6c_b.jpg[/img][/url][url=https://flic.kr/p/BQ4Vhb]IMAG0272[/url] by [url=https://www.flickr.com/photos/83474468@N03/]Kyle Townend[/url], on Flickr I'm now really conflicted with regards to tyres. I'm only going to keep this car for maybe 3 months while I sort a lease car out, and in that time it needs to cost me as little as possible - so that all my spare cash can go into the Lotus fund. The linglongs all have fine tread, so aren't going to get me fined or anything but I think I'll kick myself if I own a 182 without actually being able to enjoy it properly for a few months. It would also be nice to get it on track once before shifting it on. I'm not talking a set of AD08's or anything, but maybe some midrange Rainsports or something. [/quote]
