The gutting part is next week im on a course all week so i wont be in a position to do anything, if the paperwork is processed, and the car is ready for collection.
It will be tourture knowing the car is sitting waiting for me, and im stuck in a lecture hall!
And stupid me for not noticing.
I wont be able to pick up my 182 this weekend as planed, as there is an error on my Registration Document.
The DVLA have made a typo on my surname, instead of the letters in my surname being "ra" they have it as "ar"
So they wont process the paperwork to...

Yeah, the £50 can be paid at any time.
Its £50 if you do if from day 1, and £50 if you do it on day 1094.
My 172 does this. Its somrthing to do with the alarm getting out of sync with the doors, when theyre opened or closed quickly before the alarm is fully activated/deactivated.
Well, according to my dealer anyway . . .
Sorry, i was being lazy when i typed. It should have been if you lock your keys in your car and have to call out the AA.
BTW, Did anyone SuperGuard their car?
I thought so too. The book which i have which states standard equipment "Single CD with 6 speakers and remote control".
I was surprised to see cruise control as standard tho.
Sound Pack info from the Renault blurb:
* 4 x 40W Single CD RDS radio with 6 speakers and fingertip remote control.
* Under seat mounted 6 CD multi-changer.
* Upgraded speakers.
£350.
Its weird, in so much, that there does not seem to be a consistant message from the insurance companies.
Some, like Direct line, tell me its not a problem. While i have read other people say that their insurance company charge extra.
I really did stress the point that i have heard that cup packs increase the premium over a standard 182 without these optional extras.
He told me they dont alter the policy. When i asked whould i be covered in the event of a claim he told me i would as the Cup packs are reflected in the cost...
I prefer Silver, but:
The Silver 2.0 16v badge dosent stand out against the Silver of he paint, like it does with the other colours.
All the fcuking dead flies are so obvious on the bonnet this time of year.
So, in summary, Get Silver!
Just bought me a Black Gold 182 :D
Its an ex-demostrator with 2k miles on the clock and was three months old this month. Its the same car i test drove last Friday.
Its got the Sound Pack, Cup Spoiler Pack and Cup Suspension Pack.
If all goes to plan, and the DVLA process the paperwork to...
...Being stuck with your companys craptastic pool car for a week, then parking it up, and get into your own car to driving home :D
Ive been in Burton upon Trent on a training course, and i had to drive a crappy M reg Mondeo diesel for the week.
Its such a crap car, steering is heavy, the...
Mine creaks all the time too.
When i get out the car after driving, i hear like "tink, tink, tink"
Is this the same as you guys get?
I just assumed it was the car warming having up after its been driven from a cold start.
After driving a 182 yesterday, the main difference i felt in my limited test drive, was the gear box felt different.
Kind of hard to explain, but it felt tighter without so much travel between the gears.
Where there any changes between the clutch/gears of the 172 and 182?
Or is this just...
Ive had both.
The Mk1 brakes felt more responsive than my mk2
The MK1 has nicer logos on the seat
The Mk1 has nice white dials
The Mk1 has better stereo controls on the steering wheel
The Mk1 has nicer trim touches, such as the silver trim on the dash and the doors
The Mk2 is much more...
My 172 is about 35 on average with regular petrol. Optimax tends to give better, according to the trip computer but there are no shell garages close by so it dosent oftern have that luxury.
Just checking a mobile phone site where ive brought Sim Free mobiles from in the past, and theyre selling Origin B2s for £339.
Its on the special offers page of <A target=_blank href= "http://www.extele.com/http://www.extele.com/
This is the cheapest ive seen them recently, if anyone was...
My 172 is the first car ive had which has Air Conditioning.
As today was really warm, i had the Air Con on for the first time. :D
How much will the Air Con affect my MPG?
Will the loss be noticable through the trip computer?
