I know that theres loads of places (usually brokers) where u can 182s for around £12k but are there any renault dealers who will match these prices and also give a good p/x deal?

Thanks Jeremy

I know this option has been available since Feb but has anyone physically sat on these seats yet installed on the Clio?? How do they compare to the std. seats?? Do they feel any lower and are they more supportive and comfortable?? Do you lose any more leg room in the back?? Ive seen some...

Just read the other Recaro threads. If this option only comes with the cup rear bench which I assume will be black, does this mean that there are only 2 rear seatbelts instead of 3?

So, has the dealer just made a big mistake to say that Recaros are available not at this time or is it not available ever???

Got quoted £12300 with cup pack, spoilers and metallic last week for Jan delivery but cant remember which place. Its on my home e-mail I also got a quote from newregcars for £12515

I read in Autocar recently that the new 182 Clio cup will have options to have Recaro seats, engine re-map, roll cage etc.... as Renaultsport options. Has anyone heard anything on this???

I have heard that they are excellent!

Zymol cleaner wax sold in Halfords is not the same wax as the more expensive waxes. The cleaner wax is made by Turtle Wax under licence. I use Zymol Vintage wax and must say its the best depth of shine that I have seen. I also have the Destiny wax which is also very good!! Although some...

This dealer is not Reg Vardy Rover dealer in the NE would it???

Are Renault doing 0% deals on the 182???? over what period???

Anyone with older 172s - how are they baring up?? Any longer term problems?? over 3 yrs old and higher milage.

A few have said crap std. stereo?? I know the 172 Cup had a lower spec stereo but, thought that the 172 / 182 had a Hi-Fi upgrade to std clios?? A few have said too much roll on the 172, has thois been sorted on the 172 cup and 182 with cup chassis?? PS I know all you guys love your cars...

I am close to signing on the dotted line but would like to hear from all of you re. things you dont like re. your 172 / 182!! e.g. driving position, too small, too stiff ride, high running costs etc.... Please be honest

Autocar recorded 172 60-100 in 10.6s 172 cup 60-100 in 10.4s

Not sure about the 182 but 0-60 and 0-62 times can be significant if there is an extra gear change required!! I remember when the saxo VTS came out where they purposely changed the gearing to the near identical Pug 106 GTi to get a quicker 0-60 time by 0.5s but unfortunately 0-60 seems to be...

The other way on the A1 weatherby area and its the 1st one Ive seen in the flesh!! It looked great and it had the twin stripes too and I have to say it looks better in the flesh than any picture I have seen!! Racing blue it is then, maybe with stripe even if I dare to be bold enough!! If I...

Someone mentioned 172 cups 53 pre-reg for £10500 at Arnold Clark IIRC?? Are these still available?

But then they are not covered under Renault warranty!! LOL!

There has been an article on Optimax maybe a year back where they tested optimax on 3 different cars and showed before and after affects of the cleaning agent and it did work!! But it was a lengthy trial (a few weeks IIRC)! They also did a in gear performance test on all 3 cars and they all...

If u have the spare cash u can always get a tracker device! This can give you discount on insurance too if its Thatcham approved!

and a good place to advertise is in EVO magazine after the glowing review of the Williams classic!!

Buying a Ferrari 348 or 355 is one thing - running them is another!!!!! You may be able to pick these up for modest sums but its not the type of car you would have serviced at your back street garage as full Ferrari service history is a must!!! I would check this out before you part with your...

Autocar do tend to be able to do better 0-60 times than any other mag!!! I wonder if thier timing gear needs calibrating!! LOL

PS I purchased the sample kit that contained these 3 estate glazes so didnt pay those prices on the web site! Like I said its normally for those with the paper stuff to burn!!!!!!! and they probably already own a fleet of Rolls, Bugattis, Ferraris, Lambos and clios - so a runabout maybe doesnt...

The likes of Motorpoint and Trade-sales do get UK cars that cant be shifted when over supply!! With th 182 out I think there maybe a few 172s that Renault UK couldnt shift easily! I know that they were selling UK X-Type Jags when there was an over supply problem!

I use Zymol and its the best wax I have used for depth of shine!!! Worth the money???? No IMHO!!! but I had to try the best!! I think value for money doesnt apply here! Remember that most people that spend £5K on wax are usually loaded and use them on cars which are worth millions!!! and to...

http://www.track-challenge.comwww.track-challenge.com Most performance cars are in with times for the ring and hockenheim - No clio though!

Theres one called Castrol TWS 10W60 which is thiew top range oil! Its the only oil that BMW recommend for thier M Powered cars - otherwise the engine might blow up!!

I heard somewhere that Motorpoint cars are from Cyprus and not EU cars so PAN European warranty doesnt apply and they use a third party warranty company! Not sure if this is true with clios?????
