    Tax Band Calculator.

    Doesn't matter - goes off manufacturer data when built. Annoyingly all 182's are based on the full fat, and the Trophy and poss cup might be sufficiently lighter to drop a band if tested appropriately. Of course, in the real world, it just means you can thrash them and go a bit quicker.

    172/182 road tax

    Thing is, is 182 worth the xtra couple of quid in tax? I think we all know the answer... ;)

    Vanity Plates. Would you buy one ??

    Nope, £100, they can (and often do) revoke the plate and if they suspect that you are trying to avoid having your vehicle identified for a nefarious purpose, they will find something else to stick you with too. Illegal window tints, substandard brakes etc. Bloke at the place we used to work got...

    Caught Speeding! But could of been worse...

    Phew, just under possible ban numbers. Fair play putting your hand up though. And yes, the 182 does have the cc/pit lane limiter as standard - saved me a good few times I suspect.

    Vanity Plates. Would you buy one ??

    Naughty to misprepresent - asking for trouble with the plod, points you don't need really.

    hi im new considering going renaultsport

    Seriously, I'd look to the 182 cup or Trophy. Just that bit lighter and firmer, but still with enough kit for comfort (air con, cruise control, ABS and traction control for the winter) Trophy and a handful of cups also have the Recaro delight. Seriously, if you're used to a Polo GTI (I tested...

    Blue 172 cup (or lookalike) crash on the Snake Pass

    It was nastily wet. Trouble with the snake is that some bits are immaculately resurfaced, and other bits are like the surface of the f**king moon.

    Blue 172 cup (or lookalike) crash on the Snake Pass

    Did anyone on here crash their cup or other Clio with what appeared to be Turinis on the Snake pass (a57 going Manchester to Sheffield) at about 5:00 this after?

    clio Trophy are they that good!!!!!

    Trophy never did the top gear test track. Clarkson waxed lyrical about the Trophy in every publication he writes for and was a big fan. The Trophy is a bit lighter than cup in unmodded state (esp' unsprung) and a bit better set up. The worse the road, the smaller the Trophy will make the cup in...

    Renaultsport Clio 197 F1 Team Edition

    F*ck me, those stickers are poor. So basically a previously unavailable colout for mk III, Recaros and iffy graphics? No weight saving, no suspension tweaks. LOL

    Can you child lock your radio?

    Standard Radio/CD player on Trophy appears not to want to turn on. Is there some random series of things you can do to "childlock" it, dnd if so, how do you reverse it? Battery hasn't been disconnected or anything, and alarm hasn't been triggered. Just wondering if it's some Renault random...

    light on dash?

    Strictly, it's the light that says: "Can't you hear that? You've passed peak power, will already be on the speed cam setting when you change up, and will be bouncing off the limiter very soon. Change up now you fool!!!" But that takes a long time to say, so it puts a green gear stick light on...

    182 problem....

    Sometimes referred to as the "supersoaker". Get the oil warmed up, then take advantage of the cold morning air and give it the beans. All in a safe fashion obv ;)

    auto lights help...........

    Pain in the arse, wouldn't bother. Tidyclio has given you the right destructions though.

    182 trophy.. alloys

    Noes, don't but over phat alloys on a 1.2 - It'll take you a fortnight to get through the gears. Just search for Speedline Turini's in anthracite and you're good to go if you must :)

    197 - Autocar Performance Figures - wtf?

    I thought the 197 didn't feel too quick when I tested it. Engine might be a bit tight still, but that sounds about right to me.

    172 Cup or 182FF

    It's more than 20kg, but let's not go there. No ABS/traccy control can be a factor this time of year, just be aware of it. For my money score a Trophy or 182 cup w' Recaros.

    172 Cup or 182FF

    Trophy was tight as a nuns chuff when tested, please feel free to consider it a 182 cup or a dab quicker. The weight on the ff makes a bit of a difference through the perennial twisties. Less unsprung weigh = good
