For R32 money you can get a VX220 Turbo and that blows the lot of them away around a track. Ive driven one and it was quite comfortable, had enough pointless luxeries but not too many and it doesnt leak or break down. The ride is perfectly good for normal roads too.

For the life of me I will never know how all these 20 year olds I see driving around in new CTRs and 182s can afford it along with the insurance, petrol, rent/housekeeping money, the latest cell phone, holidays to spain, drink, drugs, fags, designer clothes...etc!!! Some of them have only...

I chose a 182 over the Type R as it was £2k cheaper, far higher spec and in some ways slightly quicker and other ways slightly slower. Also Type Rs tend to be driven by a different type of person to the 182 and frankly if I am going to be stereotyped by bystanders Id prefer to be associated with...

Grrr I am shifting back towards racing blue with no stripes. Whats this like for showing those fine swirls and how does it look after a few days out doors? Cant afford Zymol (ok I can but cant be bothered to spend that much time on it) so its only gonna get Meguiers gold class or Autoglym...

Thanks for posting those links, I hadnt seen those before. Looks pretty similar to my old Platinum Extreme!!! Not a bad thing as the vandals should just walk right past without noticing. With regards to colours being associated with certain models, I feel that the 182 has become synonymous...

There are only a couple I could find but they were blurry. The guy said he was coming up back the next day with some better pics but I dont think he has yet.

Yeah I think its probably best to go without stickers and then get them made up and fitted somewhere else for half that price. But anyway someone in this forum said that Renault arent fitting them yet at the factory and wont be able to do it til Sept? Dunno if I can wait that long although I am...

Am now ordering my 182 with the cup packs after failing to find a new 172 Cup. Been approved and everything but will have to decide on the colour by tomorrow. Have had two 1.2 16V Clios in the past and they were Platinum. Found this colour to be good as the fine swirls were invisible, they...

I bought a wireless CCTV camera, security light, cheap VCR and loads of 4 hour tapes (use on long play) after my motor was vandalised many times. Seems to have done the trick and have seen some very interesting incidents... Cost less than £150 for all that kit plus a bit of my time fitting it...

lol Yeah I know it sounds contradictory! I want the handling of the touring car - in that it just didnt feel like an FWD as it seemed to have little or no understeer when nailing the throttle at the apex of a turn. What I dont want though is a car so low and stiff that you actually end up...

Ive got leather, AC, Traction Control, ABS and all that stuff in my current car and its nice but I figure if I am going to sacrifice the comfort of my large car for the sake of track day car I might as well go all the way with no compromises! However I have just looked on Autobytel at the 182...

I have owned a Mk2 and Mk3 Clio 1.2 16v Clio Sport in the past. I currently drive a Vectra but now I can afford to buy the Clio I wanted to buy in the first place! Trouble is I had my heart set on the 172 Cup and then all of a sudden Renault come up with the 182. The 182 is fine but I prefer...
