    Stripes on or off???

    I'd take them off, don't really suit Arctic Blue to be honest. Having said that, I have owned my 182 nearly 3 and half years now and whilst cleaning the car yesterday I thought about removing mine.

    280bhp scooby vs track set-up 172

    The scooby will hand you your arse... My sister has a 53 plate WRX which is about 260bhp (I think) and it leaves my 182 for dust every time!

    **My New RB182 Cup (HDR content, no 56k)**

    Looks amazing, great pics! I have an 05 Cup - great cars! Another cheap and easy mod is to paint the washer jet blanks the same colour as the car, they look out of place in black (IMO). Lovely car and pics though! :)

    Dilemma!!!

    Get it serviced and then try and sell it? I wouldn't buy a car that should have had its 36k service done. If there are things wrong with the car people will put in low-ball offers sadly :(

    Anybody still using really old hardware and software at work?

    My old workplace had that policy! Not used to all this old stuff :( The screen does kill my eyes, I might have a word with them but I complained before and they weren't interested. I work for a very small company that only has about 8 office based staff.

    Anybody still using really old hardware and software at work?

    The difference is that your 19in CRT is probably a high end monitor.... mine is a £50 piece of Dell sh*t lol. They are stuck in the dark ages here... :(

    Anybody still using really old hardware and software at work?

    I started a new job a couple of months ago and the pc I have been given is so old! I am a web/graphic designer and I am using an archaic 17in CRT which is just shocking for graphics work. Brought my laptop in from home to work on (I have a widescreen Vaio with the X-black screen so perfect) and...

    Laptop Vs Computer (Poll)

    Although I have both I only ever use my laptop. My laptop is 18 months old now and still runs like a dream. I don't play games anymore (have a Xbox 360 for that) so a laptop is ideal. Can't even remember the last time I switched my desktop on! I wish work would give me a laptop though, got an...

    Envriophone

    I always use them and then with Quidco as well you can get an extra £1.50 You won't get as much as you would by selling on ebay but it's a LOT less hassle!

    Traction Control - Yay or Nay?

    When not on the limit it doesn't make a huge amount of difference on a dry track (IMO).

    to buy a v6 or not

    If you can afford it, why not. If you don't have the money to buy it.. don't bother.

    Running a cable from engine bay to inside of the car?

    Cool cheers mate. I might make use of that then. I don't want to go hacking the car about but that should do the trick.

    Running a cable from engine bay to inside of the car?

    Hi, I have a 2005 182 Cup and would like to run a cable from the engine bay into the car so I can operate a switch. Are there any pre-drilled holes or will I have to take the dash off? :( Thanks in advance!

    Servicing in Reading - any suggestions?

    Lol, some good roads nearby! I haven't seen you for a while. Do you know the person who owns the white Evo 5 who parks in your space in Wallingford? Whoops, sorry for hijacking the thread!

    Servicing in Reading - any suggestions?

    Hi julzh! You will have to come along to the next meet by the way! The place is Grange Auto Services in Ewelme. He did the brakes on my Clio a couple of years ago and also used to do all the work on my Saxo. Very small garage and I don't think he has a diagnostic machine but he can do all the...

    Servicing in Reading - any suggestions?

    Why not mate? I thought they were ok! Had two services there. Ok, my 36k service was very expensive (about £705) but they seemed to make a good job. For us Shire people Portsmouth is quite a trek to get your car serviced, now mine is just out of warranty I think I will take it to my local...

    just crashed my clio about 10 mins ago

    Sorry to hear that :( Also, your brakes don't work as well in reverse. Personally, if I was in the situation I would take it to a good bodyshop and get them to take a look and then decide what to do. You never know, it might be fixable and might not cost that much. Good luck and try not to...

    Leaving car for a long time

    Correct! My motorbike hadn't been started in 4 years and I kicked it over the other day and it started and run fine with old fuel in it.

    A sad sad sad day for the Clio 182..

    The stripes aren't actually a standard feature though, they are an 'optional extra'. It's like the Cup packs on the 'Full Fat' 182, some people think they should be declared and others don't. I think AliasOmega has done the right thing personally as insurance companies will do anything not to...

    A sad sad sad day for the Clio 182..

    Correct, I had to declare the stripes with Elephant and they said this. Now I am with another insurer and although they know about the stripes they said its ok.
