K, I am currently doing 200/day, hence my 2800miles since I collected the car 2 weeks ago!! It does fine, mpg is pretty good, anywhere between 30 and 35mpg per tank full depending on speeds etc. It just laps the motorway up, whack on the cruise control and off ya go :D

mikey, fraid hes right ya know. terrible system round here, ya cant fight it.

I get a 370/month car allowance. I took the cash payments. Im paying 250/month for a 12k loan over 5yrs, plus insurance works out at 80/month. Plus the company pays my fuel.

July 17th regd. Currently on 2734miles

Ouch thats harsh!! Although.... let us know when it goes up for auction!!

lmao at "God mode"

this is the "shaking yo ass" advert? whatever next?

wot ya on about lad?

lmao, theres always one.... and its normally loony!!

Not good!! Normally the only way is to freeze it so it goes hard, then pick it off in bits. but on a seat.... I cant see how youd freeze it unless you had some liquid nitrogen handy.

Yeah even a hint of a price would be enough for most to start saving, or give up the idea! hehe.

When I put mine on, the wind caught it and stuck part of it down, then when I tried to peel it off, some of the letters remained in place.

my June built 182 has a glovebox light, bloody bright too!!

Yeah, I messed up my 1st one. gotta order a 2nd one to try.

Also, Ive noticed a few threads with people that went without cup suspension, yet are now trying to add stiffer springs, so that surely says that they made a mistake when ordering the car?

Quote: Originally posted by Lee M on 01 August 2004 Quote: Originally posted by Gav_T on 31 July 2004Virgin cars are selling the 182 ( i think without cups bits though) for less than 10k brand new!!!  Surely they cant be that cheap?  Mine was £10,300 with 30% off from a main dealer.  £10,800...

tbh, I think sooner the better. reason why...... becuase 182s will start hitting the 2nd hand market properly in the next 6months, and if they sell at the same price as 172s today, then 172s will have to be lower. hope that makes sense.

Imho, I would, if buying a 2nd hand 182, wonder why the owner did not take the cup suspension if it is only 200quid. ie if you stooped on 200quid, what else did you stoop on during the life of the car, ie servicing, fuel, oil etc. I mean whats 200quid when youre spending anywhere between...

EU cars have a 3yr warranty. However, quite a few imports came from Cyprus/similar and they were not part of the EU until May 1st 2004. Therefore you car may have only had a 2yr warranty etc.

Yeah it was HippyChicks. Not sure waht it got, I think it was slipping on the rollers, same as the 300zx.

hmmm, thats what he used for everyone I think? Like I said in the other thread, we dont have graphs yet, so cant confirm that. although some readings were spot on, like TomsCup getting 167bhp atf and dave182 gettings 184bhp atf etc.

I think Andy reckoned the loss was 32%?
