I reckon the 182 has set a new lap record. It was that fast I didnt even see it.

Derby? Northern? You need to get out a bit more ya big southern poof.;)

Same as (blink172) ^^ was going to buy an import from Motorpoint, until RichD showed me the light, saved me a grand AND got me a UK car. Result!! [Edited by lagerlout1 on 15 November 2004 at 7:40pm becuase Clart loves the Anus]

Welcome to the Club dude Lager (Just down the road in Burton)

24, 2yrs no claims, 1 accident, £700. Elephant. Bargain.

No offence dude, it s a decent motor and looks tidy. But it was a lot of build up (especially on a Clio forum!) for a Megane!!

I could do with knowing this. Mine are fooked.

Is that it? Five pages for that? Sheesh.

If you traded in an import, youd get roughly a grand less.

Thats the spirit!! Any kind of creasing to floor plan/roof means the shell is crumpled - write off. Same thing happened to my 306 Dturbo. :cry:

Hmm, think you might be onto a loser here Dave mate. There are a LOT of Mk2s 172s on the road. I would hazard a guess that the Mk1 172 could be the rarest of the 172 incarnations. Incidently, the model of Clio which has sold the fewest numbers of the recent range is the 1.6 16v. Which makes...

plasterboard fixings? Never done it in the clio. Used woodscrews in my 306:oops:

If were talking modded (which is pointless!!) What about Roamers Clio 212?? think it might come out tops somehow..... Standard vs Standard (as in out of the box, not standard "apart from decat, zorst and filter" as most seem to quote) the 172 is quicker in a straight line than the Williams.

The 182 Cup is only 20kg lighter than the 182, and not as light as the Cup. If anything, I would say 0.2 seconds is a bit too much of a difference!!

lol... woman near me in her fifties who drives a Cup. She must have just liked the colour.

WAHOO!!!! Gives me more time to sort out a deal then. Any news on the Recaros Jeremy?

Me too. Didnt realise how much body roll there was on my mk2 172 until Id driven 182 with Cup pack!! Everything feels so much sharper in the 182.

The Williams is a fantastic handling car. But would it beat a 4wd car through the twisties? Not sure. Depends how twisty the twisty bits are I suppose and how big the drivers balls are.

Not too bad, considering the 0% finance. Renault offered me £9500 for my 172 against a 182 (with Spoilers, paint and suspension) for £14,500 with the £5000 on 0%. I politely told him where to stick it.

Lol... back to green I think. More green than blue in those picks!!!

Id like to have a drive in a 182 with a few more miles on the clock to see if there really is a difference (Im sure there will be, its lighter and has more power!!). As I said earlier, the 182 I drove felt quite a bit slower than my 172, but I guess it was still a bit tight. Handling stakes -...

The 182 I drove was slower than my 172:o. (had less miles on it though - 10000 vs 2000) Was a dealer demo car. For me, coming from a mk2 172, the biggest difference was in the handling....... 182 with Cup pack is far superior to 172 imho. [Edited by lagerlout1 on 31 October 2004 at 6:40pm]

IT A f**kING FORUM!!! ITS NOT REAL LIFE!! If reading some of the posts on here (and there are dickheads that post on here, dont get me wrong) has made you "not want anything to do with" clios, you are indeed a shallow and sad person. Get a f**king life ffs!!

Who in gods name is going to pay £11k for that f**king shed?? A 1.2 16v?? On an 03 plate?? Hahahahahahaha!!!

No wonder you brought it from them then!!:o Nice choice dude, you wont be dissapointed!

You wont go far wrong with a Williams mate, provided you can find a good one. Ive been looking at one for a second car and there are some real dogs out there.... You may have to wait a while for good one to come along a a decent price as they still demand a premium (and rightly so). PS - 172...

In totall (1,2 and 3) there were more Williams made than 16vs....

So if its not a Clio then.....??? What is it? Laguna?

I waited 3 months for a claim for £12,000 when I crashed my Dturbo. That was Privilege Insurance. They really are as bad as each other.
