On a normal tank load, ie 90mph on mway and some A-road booting it, I get 32-33mpg. On a good run, ie 70/80mph on mway and some gentle persuasion on A-roads, I get 35-37mpg. So, in answer to your question, it really depends how you drive it.

and the most important question.......... colour?

I had a cat replaced on my 182 after 2 months. I think there are a few 182s that have had them replaced, proportionally more than the 172 for some reason.

smt7 will do TBs wont it?

I think as youve said, youd be better off in the long run to stump up yerself.

Pro-Speed ;)

Harsh. What does it gain them huh? Nothing, it just costs you in bodyshop repairs.

lol, any differences! One has leather One has Climate Control (Some 172 Cups did, most didnt) One has Xenon One has Traction Control One has 182bhp One has.... etc

I took out a bank loan. That way, the car is finance free. Its costing me £250/month over 5years, but as the finance is not secured, I can move the loan, reduce it, change cars etc.

Optional extras for the green/yellow connectors. Radar Detector - been promised for ages (no sign as yet?) Laser Diffuser - LD100 iirc?

People arent going to sell a proper 182 to get a cut down 182 are they?

pm Clio172boy, he had one.

Id tell em where to stick it. Demand a new car

Ours run lumpy at tickover/cold. Again its down to the emissions, but Im not sure of any bad starting problems.

cheapest iirc is a fiat chinquecento. go check out the insurance groupings at www.parkers.co.uk and you can see all cars in each group etc.

Looks a minter, real shame.

V6 to a 225? no thanks, Id take a mk1 v6 over the 225. Unless I NEEDed the rear seats option etc.

I had a Cat replaced after 10,000 miles (3months). I took the standard exhaust off last month and fitted a Pro-Speed system, much better! :D

That really is superb. Top Show Andy.

Ive just had my 12k service on my 182.......... its not quite 4 months old yet!

I would be 10.25mm difference. 205/40 means the sidewall is 40% of 205mm 205/45 means the sidewall is 45% of 205mm

This sounds familar. Luckily my 172 didnt go quite that far. But it did cause the alternator to over heat, move position and cause the aux belt to split, take out the pulleys etc. Looks like it could have gone as far as yours :confused:

Try Admiral, Tesco etc. They normally have a good rep for being lower price.

Enjoy it mate. That 650 miles soon pass. but to be honest, the common thought on here is to warm it up fully, then drive it hard to bed in the pistons and rings.

the 4k rattle is where the heatshield on the zorst rattles at 4000rpm ;)

Can you get behind the carpet? Slide the MDF under the carpet and screw the amp to it. Id just 2 1inch battens tho, rather than a slab of mdf. So, have summat like:- Foam/Springs | MDF | Carpet | Amp

Yep, Factory fitted options should be included. Its not a modification. On my policy with Admiral, my mods are simply Induction Kit and Exhaust. No mention of cup packs

Not quite, but I would say that Racing blue is cheaper. Its a none metallic paint, hence why its £295 cheaper when the car is bought.

Mike172Sport was offering to do it cheaper. might be worth dropping him a PM?
