http://www.geocities.com/toypops/Warning.jpghttp://www.geocities.com/toypops/Warning.jpg A mate of mine has just had the following warning light come on in his 1.2 16v. Any idea what it is, he is out and doesnt have his handbook on him and needs to know what to do!

Hard to predict your delivery date based on mine. Ordered mid June but by the time the paper work was all signed you can say 1st of July. Now I had that aggro with the stripes that resulted in my changing the colour. This was sorted mid July but I dont know if that pushed me to the back of the...

Ok ordered mid-June, just had a letter today saying its arrived at the dealers...

The news article on the main website says the VX220 is a better car. Its the same price, has the same number of seats and is a lot faster so a no brainer really!

What car and when was it ordered?

I thought the Cup was great but then I went in the Clio Cup touring car at Bedford. It just made me think what a waste of time the original Cup was. For a hard core track day car they just didnt go far enough. It still had too many creature comforts and the ride height and general suspension...

Its still a 182 with Cup packs even if the interior has been cheapened. By definition that makes it better than the original Cup.

Who is "we" and how well does the b2 work with heat reflective screen? Ive read many people here saying that RA2 works fine and has no trouble picking up the sats.

My initial thoughts are yeah sell it. But you have to ask how much will the premium be next year? If it comes down by a lot it might be worth keeping the car. Also if he flogs it and gets an old banger how much will the insurance on that be?

Yeah mate I am sure when it gets down to a few weeks to go there will be plenty of people who given the choice of waiting 3 to 4 months or having yours would be happy to give you £400. £13.5 is a good price. If they wont give back the deposit tell them you will stand outside their showroom...

Er back to the Cup being in demand.... Its been said before in this thread but I too have noticed that many people are selling them after 6 months or so. A guy at work did that. Cant say I have noticed standard 172s being sold so quickly. I guess most owners soon realise that unless they are...

Dont suppose its a titanium with Cup packs is it? If the dealer wont give you your deposit back I bet there are plenty of people on here who would give you the money and take over your order! This will be especially true nearer the delivery date although it depends what price you negotiated...

Inchcape and they are the largest independent car seller in the world.

Pushed it forward eh, they probably gave you mine! Right that does it I am going to be doing some pestering on Monday. Ive already said that they have until mid-Oct and then I will be forced to buy another old banger to keep me going. In that event I will cancel my order and get a CTR...

Had harnesses in my Mini. What I noticed the most was that I was no longer using my legs and arms to stop myself from sliding across the seat although you wont notice that you are doing it until you fit harnesses. I removed them in the end because it was a pain in the backside in petrol...

I dont think it is our brokers Phunkey as they just place an order via a Renault dealer. These people must be getting cars from cancelled orders or failing that pre-registered. Look at Doigys motor, he ordered it beginning of August when the factory was shut! Its only been open a few weeks...

With a week to go I assume they have given you the number plate etc so you can arrange insurance and all that?

Yeah seen it! Looks good, wishing I had gone for racing blue now but I changed to Titanium when they said they couldnt do the stripes. On reflection that might have been a bad move. Had any trouble with the car yet?

Yeah they just gave him the standard "6 weeks" figure. As you say they might have one sitting in a compound but if not that is bang out of order telling him that cos like me he may make plans based around something that is pure fantasy. Still he got a good price so worth waiting.

From 11th September: I ordered mine on 5th July in Racing Blue at Renault Oldham. Ive got the registration (MK54 ***) and ill be picking it up this thursday/friday depending on how busy i am at work! This is confirmed! Kev. So Kev did ya get it?

I dont think Renaults 7 day refund guarantee guarantees anything! If you cancel your order they wont mind as they have a queue 3 months long of people who would fight to the death to pay £14.7k for an unregistered 182 sitting on a forecourt! Even if you do cancel what would you do then? Its...

Ordered mid June Due last week. Hmm either craigr is going to be very disappointed or phunkey is going to get some good news! Me thinks the former is most likely!

Nothing unusual Alymac, just a titanium with cup packs. No other extras. Because I sold my Vectra I am using an old banger at the moment on which the MOT runs out mid Oct and it will never pass without $$$ spent on it. If I dont have the 182 by mid Oct I will have to buy myself another banger...

Yeah man, ordered mid June and was told 15th August. In early July they rang and said sorry mate 13th September. Its now the 18th and I still havent heard anything. That stuff about safety tests is complete and utter bullsh1t by the way. They always lie about delivery dates and come out...

Mate one important question, when did you order it?

Well like I said, the broker sure as hell aint gonna pay to keep it in some compound and neither are Renault so its either on a boat or in boxes!!! The wait will kill me more, I sold my old car in mid July after they gave me the "confirmed" date of Aug 15th. The person I sold it to let me...

Inchcape. I was given a "confirmed date" (15th Aug) but this slipped - Renaults fault for not building the car on time. I think the broker learned their lesson after that one as they then told me "13th September" during the "sorry sir but..." phone call but when they sent a letter the next...

I can believe it, ordered mine mid-June and it aint even been built yet or rather I havent been given the number plate or any guaranteed delivery date. Me thinks you will be lucky to get it before Xmas/2005. I was told "mid-August" when I first ordered mine!

Do people seriously clean behind the spokes?

Hot Rims. Yeah thats it, couldnt remember the name and its out in the garage. Take a look on the back of the bottle and read the instructions and warnings! Now if washing up liquid damages your car and yet you can wash your face in it, just imagine how much damage Hot Rims does!!!! Cant see it...
