Just had a call from the garage. Its just being cleaned then I can pick it up.

Fantastic Matt. People were too reserved to allow it to succeed. I occasionally see the same one on my way home and always think how interesting it looks for an MPV.

Those are very different cars. You need to work out what you want from the car. The Octavia is a cracking car, but is pure overkill for me. I dont need a bigger car.

20%. Ill just pop out of work as soon as its ready. Ill take my camera and get some pics up. Im just lucky Roy. Pity its taken two weeks to get to me though. Could have had it two weeks ago.

Its not long been at the dealers so I can have it tomorrow morning. Hes doing it first thing so he can get shot of me. lol 007, here I come.

I intended to but they didnt send me a reminder and without that you cant use it. My boss used it and it worked perfectly.

I reckon Top Gear should take a look at this thread and address is on the Top Gear track with the Stig driving each car. lol

If it arrives early enough hes letting me have it tonight. In his words "Im not being rude, but I want it out of my hair". lol Good man, I was going to say if he gets it ready today Ill leave him in peace.

Dont know what the others paid, but I got mine on Friends and Family so it wasnt too bad. The discount on the Trophy isnt anywhere near as good as on a 182 or 182 Cup though, but still very good.

One of those f**kers is mine. I think Ill go down the dealership tomorrow with a whip and make sure they get it read for my first thing Friday morning. Sod work.

Nice colour. Odd, its got the little lip in the centre of the windscreen at the top. 172/182s dont have that.

Even though mine has now been in the country a whole 2 weeks I dont get it until Friday due to various cockups in getting it from the distribution centre to the dealer. I drove 006 last weekend at Oulton Park. Very impressed and looking forward to getting rid of my rather knackered 182!

Ive just wet myself and then watched the second one and proceeded to spit beer all over my monitor. Classic.....

Welcome to Cliosport. By the sounds of your requirements the 182 would fit the bill nicely. You can find some really low mileage 04 cars for peanuts. The depreciation hit in the first year is massive!! Most of these cars will have had the niggles sorted. Ive never regretted replacing...

Im interested to hear what they offered also. Ive got £9,200 trade in against a Trophy on Friends and Family. Mine is Arctic Blue, both Cup packs and 18500 miles.

Oh yeah, should have read it. Tom is T18 TWO.

Must have killed it at the Ring. Maybe hes ordered a Trophy after all. ;)

Me

Could be the dealers name? Brindley Honda around here stick badges on cars like that. Id take the dam thing off!

If you are buying the car new and spec them onto it they are a good buy. Standard in the 182 Trophy, around £800 in a 182 Cup and around £500 in a 182. Those prices are close, but not bang on from memory. You can buy them from Recaro but they will cost you a lot more...

Neither my 172 nor 182 have ever spent any time off the road,except when they were on track of course. lol The 172 covered 23k in 15 months the 182 18500k in just under 12. The 182 has done a load of track days and been thrashed. Ive had the usual faults, Ive just killed the second...

Didnt feel like an engine that had only done 1300k, thats for sure. Id have been even happier if Id gotten to try out the looseness of the dark haired scouse waitress though. lol

On the subject of the Bini Cooper S, we took my car to Oulton Park at the weekend. 4 up and it was still flying. y0z2as mate Dave had previously had a MCS and hadnt been impressed. He was so impressed with the handling and performance of the Clio, even with us lot in it, that hes looking at...

Last night, joined from the A38 Aston Distress way and followed me a couple junctions North.

Welcome to Cliosport. Glad to see you are happy with the Cup. Definitely get it on track. :D
