The fact he even raced an Aston says it all....... ;) Having said that on past exp a 330ci doesnt 'woop' or get 'wooped' by a 182 even in a straight line. And i love all the 'some t**t tried it on with me on....' comments. If you bit the bait does that not make you a t**t too?

That is quite an interesting view...You say you think the 197 looks 'shat' and then go on to say you would much rather a Twingo!? Ummmmmmm... ;)

You'll be just as happy with the 106 as a first performance car as you would a 172 imo........Just find a good one!!!

Does seem odd to be fair mate........I dont claim to be a nancy driver at all times but there is a mahoosive difference between what your getting and what im getting. I take it you reset the clock on every fill up? If you dont it will average it out over multiple tanks (in other words over...

Adrian Flux are s**t mate.......Alot of my pals went with them when we first started playing with bigger engined cars around 19 and they were NEVER anywhere near as competative as Elephant or Admiral with Dad as a named driver on my policy (i take it your doing this as this brings the policy...

^^I generally see between 38 and 40 mpg. On topic theres plenty of place you can give it some beans around here on a saturday/sunday afternoon. The willy engine was always good for coming on power early. Went right the way from 2k upward.

Good vid that Nick....Does sound very nice even over all the f'ing and jeffin!!! ;)

Who are you with and how many points/no claims do you have? Im 23, dont live too far away from you and mines £610 FC with direct line. Both Elephant and Admiral were arounf £700 also. Granted cars parked in the garage but still.......

Well my last proper service was at 22.5k in May 2007 and i am now sitting on 27.3k so id say a measley 3k(ish) in the last year.

I was 21 when i got my 182 and paid around 1200 with Admiral with Dad as a 'named driver on my policy'!!! My first high powered car was a Clio 16v at 19 though and that didnt cost me much more again with Dad as a named driver.....Insurance musta rocketed like everything else since.

To be totally fair and honest i average between 38 and 40 mpg in my current when using Ultima or Optimax and thats mixing one extreme of driving with another i.e i will religiously drive at 30 in a 30, 40 in 40, built up areas etc but will go to the other of really hard driving (none of this...

Lol....Good game mate, good game!!! ;)

Trust biscuit to come up with a totally different idea.......Tube and train are pants and walking tires easily so il take the max thanks!!! ;)

Is this what we do on CS these days? Ask randoms for advise on what car we should use on a given day!? Lol Il remember to post next time i stumble upon this tough decision.....Clio 182 or Raleigh Max!? Ha

Haha, constructive......I take it you've driven 182's before then to come to that conclusion? Why are 197's so much better? Pro's and con's of both would be handy!!!

Blimey does it.......Surely that isnt a totally standard noise!?

To be honest chaps as said i dont know too much about them but i will research them more. The chap was saying about the mp3 player and recaro option (which im not too fussed about) but i know il be wanting the standard wheels as opposed to the ruibbish (imo) looking cup ones. I will want...

Il have a little gander at that tonight mr millerlight. m4tty100, i never thought id like them either hence why i havnt give one a second glance over the two years they've been on the market but i must say i was sort of taken back by how nice it looked and felt inside the weekend hence...

He basically said the 182's like a little go kart. Good handling and feels faster than it is due to it feeling much lighter......He also said that its easier to drive fast. He did say that he doubted i would find the 197 faster on the drive although he believed it was which is fair play. The...

Simply a weekend drive really as it will hardly ever get driven during the week. I just got the impression i was in a solid car where i dont when getting in the 182 and didnt in my old valver hybrid.......The dash and interiour felt like it had come on alot too but maybe on a proper drive il...

Whilst at Renault Saturday i had a little gander of a 197 they had in there showroom for the first time and as soon as i sat in it i thought 'i like this'......The seats (non recaros) were in a different league, the steering wheel and dash also looked and felt the part and not to mention the...

Blimey you must be either caining that everywhere or the fuel consumption is terrible!? On a full tank in mine, driving it normally most of the time i get another 100ish miles on yours. I remember my 2.0 hybrid being abit naughty on the fuel but not that bad!!! Lol

Looks wise yes......I loved the phase 2 cloth to look at and imo much more comfortable than the mk2 seats. They just feel like buckets. I agree the mk2 sport steering wheel is huge but to 'look' at id rather be seeing a mk2 steering wheel everyday. The only mk1 wheel that didnt look like they...

Ahhhhhhhh, these common colours eh!? ;) I like the Inferno colour in the darker pictures more so than the lighter ones...Rusty all the way!!! Ha Nice set of pictures.

PMSL!!! Japped out French mobil FTL im afraid.

Thread winner by far......Nothing can top this!!! What happened? Seems like a strange old place to end up!!! Criiiiiikey....What happend here? Thats a 'stay away from vx's' pic if ever there was one!!! Close but no cigar.....Where is this unfortunate sole these days!? Fortunatly i...

31st of July Chris!!! Craig i will do mate but i just wonder where i'll stand if they say its too late now or try fining me with some sort of charge for the delay!? Da...I was thinking about doing that mate but i thought honesty was the best way forward but again thats what i said surely...

...they are going to do here? Right i have been flitting between Elephant and Admiral for the past 4 years getting better deals with one one year and then the other the next (even though there the same company i know) but this year found Direct Line to be a fair bit cheaper so i went with...

Lol....Really!? I know a few PE Teachers who are not doing too bad for themselves and considering they have almost half the year off in holiday for doing what im made to believe to be a fairly non stressful job anyway id say they have it more made than the likes of me tbh!!! Most are paid...

21 and CSL?? Show me how!!! Lol Nice car that i want very muchly.
