totally agree MikeGG, before i bought my 182 from the FRIENDLY barkers in preson, my experience with 2 renault dealers was not good, fair enough they have to make money but when i asked them to actually SELL me the car, they knock about £500 off and one dealer (preston) werent even helpful...
after learning about and experiencing buying and owning an import, there is no chance i would buy a UK car again, unless of course they knocked off some serious pound notes!
mines not cupped, coz its and import and cupped import were few and far between at the time of purchase. but it only cost me 11k so i aint complaining.
of course theyre imports, im suprised than anybody was under impression they werent.
but who cares if they are, thats a hell of a lot of car for the money!
anyone know where i can get a nice big pic of the megane 225 trophy?
im thinking if i have it on my desktop long enough, i wont go out and waste my money on one. :D

i had a bash on spyhunter on my old c64 the other day...
and dya know what, i was quite as good as i remembered, in fact it was pretty damn sh*t, lol...
sorry if this is dumbass question.
but ive realised my 182 was 12 month old on the 1st march.
so im guessing it needs its 1st service, even though theres only 5000 miles on the clock.
is there an service indicater on the dash or do i need to book it in asap?
cheers
