so my other mate has just bought my old 172 from another mate of mine. lol the 172 gets about!! was his 1st day on the road today (his 1st car lol)
so me and my close pals alll got together for a few quick snaps tonight. and oddly we all own CS's! anyhoo, my 2nd go at night shots. hope there...
So the 200 is officially the hottest hot hatch out there at the moment fopr the money, and has been for a while now. but how much does it differ from the disapointing 197? ..yess it looks different, has had a remap and steering slightly improved. but is that it?
here is a spec list below of...
so here she is, the silver is a much better silver than the old 16" oz f1's i had on before. the silver is alot brighter which now matches the standard renault bullets and suits the standard chrome badges etc. oh and the renault centre caps really finish the car off
really happe with the new...
just want something cleared up if anyone can help.
Without a decat do they actually give any performance gains or are they all just noise?
example : if a decat was fitted to a standard 182 system, would that give better gains over fitting just a miltek system (no decat)?
and lastly...
West Drayton - 11.15ish..
Reguler looking Silver Clio (eg 1.5dci), but had xenons, French pressed plates and brand new looking steelies on. Looked at tad lower etc aswell Just looked abit suspect... Maby 172 but with non-sport bumpers etc!?!?
Anyone know of a 1*2 sleeper around west Drayton!?
My insurance is due for the 182 in Jan.
What insurance are you lot getting and who with? im struggling to get below £1.4k?? seems abit steep!
3 points are for minor offence (CD10), i also live in a safe village out in country so all should be good!? (CA6)
Thanks, Piers.
Recently got the car lowered. Still got the dull silver 16" Oz F1's. Due to be refurbed once winter has passed though, to either satin black or a nice polished bright silver, still haven't decided on that yet.
Here's a couple iPhone pics..
Cheers.
Next year il be in pos eq with the 182.
Options on the list will be to either..
1. Buy a brand new 200
or
2. Buy a car like an e46 M3 / Ph2 V6 / Mk2 R32 and have a £200 shed to run about in..
Have currently done 15k in the 182 in 9month!! What will be the best option to not lose to...
Are they any good?
Want a tyre that's brilliant on road but better on the track than PE2's and Conti sport 2's etc.
Are the AD08's what I'm looking for?
Thanks.
So I relise my 182 obv has the cup suspension option.. Therefor I know it has a different fitment for coilovers to the reguler 1*2's..
What needs to be done for H&Rs from a 172 to fit my FF182 !?!?
How much of a job is it? Ball ache material?
PSJ.

the picture is of my old 172 located from my project thread below...
So got invited to a PH meet and it was absolutly brilliant! awesome cars (63 turned up) and epic roads! some very good exciting driving to go with it aswell. was great to compare the car with other performance cars on the roads ..The clio did very well, i must say ;)
100% going to attend...
I can get a cheap set of H&R coilovers but would need sent back to re-build as they've had planty of hard use.
How much does this usually cost to do?
I'm just trying to figure out if it's worth doing.. Or just splashing out on some new V-maxx coilovers instead.
Thanks, PSJ.
so heres todays pics. weather was great, roads were even better! shame the others who failed to come misssed out tbh.
anyway, here are the pics. injoy!
Anyone else with pics from todays meet, please post in here :D
Roll on...
just matter of interest tbh..
when i had 2nd hand H&R coilovers on my old 172 they seemed to be ok.. but ruined the CV joined (split it under pressure) and there was play in the steering and had an pest of a knocking noise..
was this down to the coilovers not being in good condition? worn...
Ok after the last Recent 2 fantastic meets And new local members I'm going to organise another meet and run out up to Hawick from Carlisle.. Planing to do it on either 5th or 12th of september (Sunday) which ever is best for everyone.
Usual crack really. Meet up around 10ish (Carlisle), lunch...
at traffic lights were roadworks at yiewsley (I think it's spelt lol) Actually looks alot better in the flesh with the blue on black ;)
very nice indeed!! Want!!

wasnt exactly an official meet hence why nothing was put up on the local meets section but mainly due to word of mouth and was an actually good turn out lol and weather was brill.
