my 182 is fcuked after a stupid muppet in a ash cart didnt look and pulled in to the side of the 182. my misses ended up in hospital and the 182 is realy smashed up g/f is ok now about like me is really sore.
:@
i get about 30-33 mpg out of mine but its getting better and better every week now ive gone past 20k so there is light at the end of the tunnel honest.
yep should have bought a derv really but drove the 182 and i had to have it.
i drive about 70 miles to work and back 6 days a week plus going out in the nights if im bored. the girls in the local petrol garage call me by my first name not a good sign really
Just got back from work at my ickle clio has gone past twenty thousand miles now with no faults at all so well pleased but ive only had it since april
people are always asking about build quality with the 182 but i find it very good well for a twelve grand car anyway.
and it never fails to...
Check if it will go on your credit car mate sometimes its cheaper to put it on one. or if you dont have one get one with zero percent for the first six months and py it off thats what i do.
got mine pre reg and shows first owner had car for a day then me no probs at all yet dont think it will lose me much if any money if i come to sell mine
its always chaeper to insure a new car rather than a old one with admiral as you are more likely to look after it ( and i should now i work for them):D
id still rather a normal 182 with cup bits and have the best of both worlds the handling and the comfort cos i doubt that there will be an only slight diff with the diff interior and no abs cos thats all the difference i can see
but i could be wrong cos as we all now cups are the fastest cars...
i thought that to mate but on the sheet is says what i stated ,ok for 172 to use magnatec but 182 they are to use rs i doesnt make sense to me but if thet tell me to put it in im going to. its not cheap eiether 57 plus vat for the oil??
looks like just another way to screw us??
fair play to...
as i said guys the garage had a NEW SERVICE SHEET THAT DAY and apparantly castrol magnatec is FINE for the 172 but NOT for the 182 u and i quote
" only put castrol rs in mate if you put magnatec in Renaut coud not validate warranty they can be really funny" (what renault dealer said and that...
toypop u really dont like the V6 do you?? lol
got to say though id would pick a v6 over an evo because of all the running costs and parts if something goes wrong.
and u could always put a new interior in for say one and half grand prob solved.

The 182 had its first 12000 mile service yesterday cost £180 quid though dont know if that was good or bad.

Castrol Rs 5w 40w oil fully synth...
the same thing happened to my best mate but they broke into his house and killed his dog???. they then nicked his tv dvd player and car keys and all his personal documents. a week later some stupid idiot walks into our local 800 yards from his house and tries to flog some of his stuff. so we...

as i work for an insurance companynwe get to buy the stolen and recovered cars and a golf r32 has come up at a lot less than retail so if i sell the 182 it wont cost much difference but im not sure anybody even owned driven one?? and are they any good handling and speed wise :devilish:
its sad though that the only way you can stop them f##king about with your stuff is through fear. got to say though that i live in quite a rough area and have 3 cars outside the house and havent had one scratch or little muppet touch the cars.
im guessing that my step brother being the biggest...
