Mine are very unique..... not!

I test drove one around a month ago and found that the handling was amazing and how quick and safe it stoped!(I thought my 172 had good brakes before the test drive). But the real disapointmnet was the engine. No 5000 rev kick put progressive power which felt boring and a lot slower than my car...

Had my 172 for a year and 5 days and love the car to bits.only just turned 20 so fairly lucky to own such a car. But before i owned this a had a mark2 ph1 1.2 rn which i owned for exactly two years.Now i think it was modded tastefully except for gray 182 replica stripes.Well anyway even though i...

Been trying to find the specs that used to be on here but i think they have been removed? have they? Anyhow what is the 0-100 mph of a full fat 172? cheers Herdie

Welcome to the club mate!!! like the colour of your car, tis well nice!!:approve:

I have a 04 plate 172 :S

Thanks for the comments! Will give them a ring!

Can u give me a rough estimate of how much this would be mate?

Sorry if this has been asked before, but I have a mk 172 and sometimes put my turinins on. Should I tell my insurance this even though they are renault alloys. I bought them through a renault stealership. But i no there not the standard spec for this car. Cheers Herdie172

hi mate. I do know that even very late mk 2 172's have spare wheels because i have one in mine, but i doubt the boot will be any bigger in the 182. Surely just the same without the spare wheel space.I might be totally wrong. Can anyone confirm what am saying is true?
