Excellent, this is coming along nicely. Last time was immense. This time I will get onto the mulsanne. I've already blagged some night vision goggles for the 'great escape' style route.
There's a few yt vids of the prototype knocking about, looks curvier than the current car. Twin turbo v12 made specifically for the car, by amg I'm guessing.
Being a bit BMW-gay with the gradual launch process, but they'll be updating the site with video as january progresses.

At the end of the 1st vid, weird looking key? Edit: Actually looks like a die cast of the new car.
Drive them all. Cup feels more eager, but doesn't handle any better than a 182 IMO. In all honesty, a ph2 172 with some decent coilovers will be more fun than either.
If you'll be modifying, get a 172 (ph1 if possible). More suspension options than a 182cup, cheaper, cable throttle. I've had all the different models (bar the 172cup), and the ph1 was the most fun, vastly better throttle response.
My old one
Steering feel is not fine. It's bloody hopeless. There is none. It's overly light, in terms of feel and weight, terrible.
It is accurate though.
Owners unwilling to admit genuine and well known faults are the reason forums get laughed at!
Hugely limiting the market by selling effectively 2 broken clio's. A Clio enthusiast will be the only person likely to appreciate the work and parts that are in the conversion. To everyone else, it's 2 broken old hot hatches.
