Mine was a Friends/Family deal, so in order to get the 30% off, it had to be a new order etc, not a stock car. So for 10,800 on the road, with cup spoilers and cup suspension I couldnt argue really with delivery dates! :D

Quick, get ya mum to buy it for you :D

Surely the Big Grin factor when driving it helps overcome the downsides?

I think mine may actually be on the production line at the moment, at least Im hoping it is.

Yup, only 172 were made afaik.

Thats what you get for living in a dodgy area ;) 650 on a 182 for me, 25yrs old, 1yr NCB, 4 previous claims etc.

I think not Kev, seems like a normal "bitter owner", someone that hasnt driven and compared the 182 against a Cup. Yes the cup may still be Slightly quicker (if at all), but the extras on the 182 more than make up for any differences. AND ffs, Id hardly call the 182 a "warmish hatch", hell...

Says XTR, the "wannabee clio boy" OZ wheels - from a clio owner Gear Knob - From a Cup Interior door handles - From a Clio 172 mwahahaha :D

Long term plan is a 182 for weekday use and possibly a westfield style car for weekend/trackday.

Nope, Down South :D Reading to be precise.

Hey :) You must be XTR/Craigs mate? He sent me the link to your cardomain page the other day.

What about getting a 14" skinny wheel, you know just enough to get you home. Actually, I think you can even get some 16" steel skinnies, I had one in the Ford Focus C-Max as a spare wheel.

As for reducing the price, perhaps try kicking off with Reno Customer Service and see if they will discount it more because of hassles, but play on the fact that "you are willing to try reno again and hope it was a one off bad car". It does sound like youve had more than you fair share of...

Yeah, like Lee says, according to number of 182s on here, Arctic seems the top colour. Yet according to Jeremy T, and dealers Ive spoken to, Black gold is the top colour.

WackoJacko had his 172 go back for a number of failed mounts, might be worth PMing him and checking.

See my reply in the other 182 thread you posted in Kev :), but for me, even the warranty extension was worth trading for. I swapped from a 172 that had 20months warranty left, to a brand new 182 (on order) with the full three year warranty. Seeing as the last warranty repair my 172 had was...

Quote: Originally posted by Lee M on 26 June 2004 Heres why I changed. I had an 03 172 for from new which Id covered 22300 miles in. It was an import.  I got offered a good trade in, and got the 30% F & F on the 182.  I now have a brand new UK car with no miles on the clock and 3 year AA cover...

I think it has reverted back to 22% for the clio, there was a higher discount on the 182 in May.

Quote: Originally posted by Kev. on 25 June 2004 Itll cost you a lot more than £3k i should think.Kev. Not if he goes import route, or reno f&f deal.

Mine is still set for 12th July, I just spoke to the dealer.

My thoughts too Lee, the starter kits at 100ish are plenty enough for me. Like you say well be starting with a good surface, not a 10yr old worn surface that needs to be bought up to scratch.

gah, I hope not. Mine is due for 12th July delivery, and I really hope its on time. Too late for me to call the dealers, so will have to wait and see, maybe call them over the weekend.

Its not so much a problem for you as they can see the 1 day change etc, but it can be a problem for the next person I guess.

aye, I think a lesser willed person would have let them get away with it tho, so ir was a gamble that didnt work for them this time, but mebbe next time.

Also, by pre-reg-ing it, the dealer KNOWS he will hit target and the bonus for doing so may well be higher than the hit he will be taking on the 182 sale. Just beware tho, its effectively buying a second hand car (in the eyes of the law), as Big Iain found out when he had hassles with his 172.

11988 isnt F+F is it?? That sounds like an import price.

Nope. They are 5 stud :)
