The dealerships are annoying, I don't live anywhere near one so I have to take time off work to go and take my car. Most of the time they don't fix it until the 2nd visit!
The rattles! There is a really annoying one coming from the area by the clocks and another that is coming from around the glovebox area.
Also the handbrake is crap and when I get out the car it squeaks really badly!
There are loads of 182's in Didcot, so many that I don't post them in here! lol
There is one with 'VIV' on the numberplate (I think) which is arctic blue and driven by a pretty lady! I flashed my lights and she waved at me the other day *faints*
I have a fotki account, they are great but only worth the money if you use (I don't use it that much anymore so found it a waste of money).
Instead now I host photos on my website, takes a bit of setting up but its not bad.
I need some front tyres badly for my 182 Cup. Found these on Mytyres, are they the right ones?

Was a great day overall, nice to see some familiar faces there too :)
The only thing that Cliosport should take into consideration was certain people *ragging* it down the middle between the stands. Every club had cars guilty of doing this but most of the time when I saw it, it happened to be...
There are lots of people on here who have declared their Cup Packs. Afterall its optional extra so the company will try and make you pay for them.
I had to declare my stripes on my Cup!
I bought my 182 when I was 20 and paid about £1650~ with Elephant. Good post code area and 2NCB.
I would say try Elephant because it should be cheaper with them.
No it won't. Because I have the Cup mine has a crap steering wheel but I managed to fit one on mine. Cut the two clips off and it slots into the front cover on the wheel. If you pull it hard enough it will fall out though.
Seems expensive but you get what you pay for. At the end of the day its still going to be a 'Clio'.
I for one won't be buying another clio and will stick with mine for a little while longer until I see something else which takes my fancy.
Elephant are great, never had a problem with them policy wise. The lady I spoke to last night was very helpful and as someone has already mentioned, they insure Mods!
Just renewed my insurance tonight with Elephant
2005 Clio 182 Cup with Stripes - £1010.10
Myself as named driver
Mum as second driver

Bargain :)
Elephant charged me for my stripes (£150!!!!) but are still the cheapest about for young drivers.
Btw - If you don't cancel you're policy with them when you change insurance companies they still charge you're card!
