I think it will be a good car tbh. Looks have grown on me, still think the 197 looks a lot meaner though. 2 years time there will be plenty of converters and people who love em.
I think mine pulls better than my 182 did. Mine has no problem with power. Mine does have 31k on it tho so its well loosened up, its had the software update as well and i did notice it down in the low revs, def notice the difference.
I remember when i test drove the 182 i didnt think it was...
My brakes are on 31k and i haven't changed them once. Its never been tracked ill admit, bit it has been given some real stick, def did last summer. Tyes wear, but no worse than any other RS.
As for stone chips, just make sure your in front lol!;)
Well said mate, i felt the same when i got my R27! Drove a 182 again and it was ok, but was much happier when i got back in the R.
I still am really impressed at the performance of it a year and a half down the line, i never felt anywhere near the same in my 182.
Why do some people think that miles are a bad thing? Your vees that are on 20k have only just loosened up lol! :o
More miles the better i think. Had my R27 from new and put on 31k, feels feckin fast, much better than a newer/tighter engine. And still looks and feels like new.
I have always done...
^^^maybe yours is bust?:o
Think it says in the handbook you have to be 1 meter away anywhere from the rear or sided of the car. My misses has opened the car first even tho i have the key and im about a meter away.
It is funny wen you let your mates sit in it, then they get the really...
Yeah but its a different car? If you had that money to spend i dont see why downgrading would be an option? No warrenty etc. I no i wouldnt. If you want a 197 then thats the car you go for, just search for the best price and spec.
Dont really think the 182's are really part of the picture tbh.
Why did he take everything off a 172 and convert it into his 1.2? Why not buy a 172? Surly it will be cheaper and will look like a proper RS i.e no sunroof, 3 doors etc!? I hate the sunroofs in clio's, fuckin hated my one in my old 1.4 16v.
Fair play to him for bein different and it does look...
Id get the mini. Much nicer car. clio maybe better handling but tbh you will only really notice if your one of the many track 'experts' on here. Simple mods will see higher gains if you wanted to tune.
The mk2 clios are looking really dated now i think, especially the interior, no offence to...
