Damn wish I saw this before and I spent nearly £2000 getting 20 BHP. I could of saved loads of money. Anybody wanna set up a group buy ? LOL.

I was in Paris last week too. Renault are really pushing it with billboards everywhere. On the way back we left from Dieppe and I saw 3 full lorry car transporters all with 197's on. There were loads of them. All heading our way probably !! But I did not see one Renaultsport the whole time I...

O year I hate the stearing wheel. My puma had a tiny stearing wheel. And I dont like the floppy gear change. The puma was sharp and quick.

Hate the rattle and squeeks but mine seem to get better after 10 min of driving? theres this one squeek I just cant get rid off though. Never had a problem the clutch. After driving over cars I find it quite stiff for the first 10 mins but its never a problem. I Actually like it. Auto...

I'm happy too, I just wish the recaros were an option when I brought mine.

I can see it on your car too. Your rear bumper is different shade. to the rest of the body work.

I'm not really that fussy but maybe its more noticable on mine. It's always parked under artificial light so maybe cos I notice it all the time it annoys me more. Definatly would have brought a different colour. There are 2 silver 172's in my works car park (I think I started a trend as there...

Mines the same. It looks worse under strret light lamps. I've had my car from new and I thought it had been crashed and the dealer had tried covering it up until i'd seem a few others with the same problem. To be honest it annoys the F**k out of me. I would have never of got the colour if I...

I've just got my pro-speed exhaust (brought from Gary G). Love the noise and I can't really hear it on the motorway unless I floor it. I much prefer it to my standard exhaust. I Cant really see myself getting fed up it as its not that intrusive at all really. (time will tell I supose !!) The...

I've got this same problem as well, Not got round to sorting it yet though !! I think it was Loony who told me its possibly the brake fluid too. But i've not checked it. Silly really as its pretty important to be able to stop !!

Look for second hand stuff off here thats what i'm doing. I got Gary G's prospeed full exhaust and D-cat. Its still got a lifetime garuantee, looks and sounds awsome. You will get more for your money, plus in my experience you can trust the seller and you are getting a quality product Unlike...

I cannot recommend them enough. They done my 12K service and some engine tuning. Andy is a top bloke along with everyone else there. If you want your car looked at by people that know their stuff and will be honest with you then look no further. Can get addictive though once you've been...

if it were me i'd not get either, a 182 is just going to be the same, Fiesta ST not as much go as you had so you may regret it. Astra GSI? or Type R? or a Golf GTI? or Audi A3? I would definatly look for a different driving experience but thats just me !!

Hello and welcome, I just got that same problem sorted on mine today. Apparently it was a temperature sensor. Not sure which one but its all ok now !! it did'nt take them long at all

Welcome to CS I noticed its your first post!! this has been done to death but just so you know 182 is 10,000 times faster then a 172, the williams is quicker then both of them put together and the 172 cup is the quickest car on the planet LOL ;)

the silver trim along the dash & on the gear stick is different (better on the 172 IMO)

killed my pe2's in 8000 miles, (fronts) second set heading the same way. maybe my driving. its been the same with every car i've owned tyres go nowhere.

15 % APR is very high. Its 0 % with Privledge. The savings you might make, you may end up paying in interest. I probably end up going with Greenlight because they are mod friendly !!. It probably works out about the same in the end. I think i'll probably end up getting a 0% credit card to put...

Do you know if you can pay monthly? do they charge interest if you can? Cheers Paul

Mine do not dim, with the normal batt and I dont have a cap. I've found in the past with my other cars that if the earth is a bit dodgy then my lights dim. With the clio I found Bolting the earth stratight to the metal work and file the paint down to get a good contact helped. I also made...

Thanks blaze. I'll get it booked in for them to have a look Cheers

Hi, Sometimes my heater will blow out full on boiling hot heat from the vents even though the temperature is on min. seems to happen whether the AC is on or off. Has anyone else had this problem and know what it might be? I don't want to go to Renault yet as they might spot my mods and tell...

Would fitting Apex springs on the standard dampers actually make the handling worse then the standard 182 ff cupped setup?. I'm after improved handleing and the lower looks but cant really afford the ledas !! I think the standard handling is good, just that the car looks a bit high, but then I...

I live near the L&D hospital so just down the road from dunstable. Silver 182. I dont see many 182's round here.

i've done about 14,000 miles. I've just had it recently serviced. I hav'nt checked the brake fluid level. But I will do tomorrow. Cheers Paul

Hello, i'm after a bit of help, Recently i've been having this problem with the stop light and hand brake light keep flickering on and off ( together in sync.). Not sure what it is, I hav'nt changed anything recently on the car. I first thought it was under hard acceleration it was happening...

I would'nt of thought it mattered too much in a standard 1.6, if it was me i'd stick with Tesco RON 95. But i'm no expert and i'm sure someone else would tell you different !!

mine slips out of 1st when flooring it. Would changing the engine mounts help this ?

21.3 MPG on a good day I reset mine on every refill (which is almost every day LOL)

No change for me for a good few years. Although I get tempted by other cars, once my loan is paid off in 16 months. Thats it !! no more car loans with a decent car i've had from new. May be tempted by a V6 or a different 2 seater in a couple of years but only if the girlfriend finally learns...
