Nobody makes a O.E sounding 182 system, shame imo as they would sell loads imo, not everybody wants to sound like some barry. Renault systems new are stupid money.
Janspeed are supposed to be one of the quietest stainless systems
best o.e price i've seen...
You'd be very lucky to find a low mileage Reacro'd 197 for 5-6k. Most around that price are early base models and a bit leggy tbh
Expect around 25-30mpg on an earlier pre 2008 model. Cambelts due on cars 5years and older, so 2006-7 are due now. Thats around £500.
Major niggle is probably the...
Why you'd want to get rid of that for some MK2 heap is beyond me! (;))
Seriously, the rattles will annoy the f**k out of you, as too will the gear change and the general gruffnes.They did with me when I went back!
Try one, for me they are fine. Remember you can get a cupped 197 from 2008 on, they have all the spec of standard car, but with the cupped suspension. Bet there isn't many non cupped white 197's about ;)
I dunno. Imo the 182's (cupped) do tend to sit better as stock. Its only on here that they look high as most are slammed to the weeds. In RL they look fine when out on the road.
Pro lines do help further though
I can see me getting another MK2 in a year or so when I actually buy a house. It will probably be another Cup tbh, maybe try a Silver one with Climate ;)
Or you could be sat on some cheap cloth, with ambient air being puffed at you knowing you bought the best looking most focused Mk2 Clio made.
Lets be fair sitting on cheap 'pleather' and crap scattered Xenons does not make the standard 172 some kind of luxury car.
