You hear the 1*2's often mentioned as one of the best hot hatches ever, never hear that with the S3's. They have the same problem with all older Audi's, lots of grip but no finesse. At the end of the day, if you want a cruiser go for the Audi, if you want a cracking drive, go Clio. You couldn't...

A good 172 will prob be more powerful than a bad 182! They're not the most consistent engines. 182 has a better manifold. But, having been head to head with a few cars, there's f**k all in it speed wise. Interior is 99% identical, given the price difference I'd go 172, couple of mods (splitter...

No, not at all. I was lucky, had a 172 then a 182, only had one rattle between them! That was 45000 miles each, 4 track days in the 182. But interior plastics etc aren't very nice compared to the Audi. The one rattle I had was fixed in ten minutes by fiddling with the dash. If I had the choice...

My opinion, S3's are very decent cars, great build quality, great interior, great image. 182's, worse build quality, worse interior, average image, but better to drive, better brakes, better throttle response and far better chassis balance.

Seen this guy around before, usually on the M40. Wasn't hanging about either.

Put a pair of sunglasses up on ebay 4 hours ago, it shows up in my account but can't find it searching on ebay? Tried looking under a different account, but still can't find it, any ideas?? Cheers

172 should have it, my Rallye pulls away from a standard Jordan

No button=no TC:)

Haven't got the car now, but the do settle after about 4 weeks. Better handling without screwing the ride. Apex go lower, but not a progressive spring, so ride is rock hard. Parked mine next to a standard, does look a lot more purposeful.

Looks fantastic on a bright sunny day, looks w**k on a cold dark day, very flaT.

Saw an Enzo, a Phantom, a Ferrari 456 and a Hartge x5 coming out of Farnham, all with a sequential private plate on. Loads of money down there.

Check what it says on the V5, does it list as a 182 or 182 cup??

They cost a fair bit to get decent gains. My opinion is, you'd enjoy your car more, end up being quicker, and spend less dough by doing some driver training. http://www.cadence.co.uk/index.php?option=com_frontpage&Itemid=1 I went a couple of years ago, made me a faster, smoother, safer driver.

Before is the top one. They did tighten the handling up a treat, and the difference is subtle, but I liked it.

Very little, the 35-40mm is quoted for a normal clio, not the sports. Have a search, I put some pics up ages ago of my 182 before and after eibachs.

Doubt you'd get new Turini's and tyres for £600, think the wheels alone come in at that.

Cheers, just noticed that.

Need headlamp washers as well

Never understood point of raising rev limit, doesn't power and torque drop off after 7000rpm in these cars? Don't the cup racers have a lower rev limit?

Had mine done under warranty, 1 hour job, wouldn't of thought too much.

Aren't mk1's supposed to be evil handling little buggers?? Decided against DC5 then?

Doesn't left foot braking on the focus rs lock the diff?? Ie share the torque out better?? Remember seeing Chris Harris chatting about it on a video, works because it's NOT a lsd.

Integra Type R DC2 and some spare cash for track days.

In malvern today about 3pm. Was this the original demo car?

What's gravity defying handling??? Can it drive upside down:coffee:

Think the reason it works so well on the Teg is it's got bugger all torque!
