On this occasion I was too quick for the camera. :(
Superb pics as always though mate. With all those of Toms he really should have cleaned it. Mine was spotless.;)
The instructors werent showing people how to drive a good quick line they were showing people how much you could throw a 182 Cup around. I asked him to show me what it can do and he did. lol
He braked a little but most the time just threw it sideways to scrub off speed. He did outbrake...

LPG doesnt make the car any less powerful at all. My dads mate had it installed in his Land Rover 110. He siad it makes the acceleration smoother along with saving you shed loads of money.The only problem you have with the 172 is the weight...
This months Practical Performance Car has an article on the Williams being the definitive hot hatch?
They use a Williams 3, and I know you purists will moan that the wheels are the wrong colour and dont have the polished lip. lol
But more importantly, they also have an article on a...

petrol Blue available for the 182 cup? Does it cost a lot more?
Petrol blue isnt available on the 182 Cup, just the full fat 182 which of course you can add the Cup packs to.

Nice video Mark. The nervous Mr Hughes alongside you at one point. lol
That Exige was a bit of a weapon. The Clios were pretty much a match or better than most cars on road tyres through the turns, but the two Exige on semi slicks were flying.
You may want to have a look at this letter Renault sent out. http://www.leemather.plus.com/stuff/rw.jpgLetter
My 172 was an import which I purchased from Motorpoint. I didnt have any problems with getting work done on it. When I traded it in I got about a grand less than I would have done...

Why did you like the f1s Lee? i was planning on getting some for the 15s after hearing some rave reviews...
I loved the F1s mate. I also love the Exaltos so I dont see any reason to replace all 4 as I did with the Contis on the 172.
LMFAO.
Just called Renault Birmingham. They can only supply Contintal and dont sell Michelin tyres. I even pointed out that the tyre was designed for the car and I purchased the car from them.
I swapped all 4 for F1s on the 172 but I have no intention of doing that on this one. I like...
Jesus, anyone would think they were made out of gold.
I popped into my local dealer this morning to add a few more jobs to the list of things I want doing, while there I asked about tyres. They called up the supplier who quoted £78 per tyre. By the time the VAT and fitting had been added it...
I dont believe that. I called various dealers for prices just a couple of weeks ago for the 12k on mine. None of them commented it had been changed to 18k.
