Hasn't it been on about 20 times? I'm sure I read somewhere it didn't affect the RS models - I can't see how that could be true though. Dan

Se7en172's car I beleive. In case he's reading and actually really wants to keep the 197, on Saturday we got a pram, 4 adults and a baby seat in my friends 1.2 Turbo Dynamique :) Dan

Small difference in how easy it is to drive a 182 quickly heh. Dan

Are you sure it's a turbo...? My mate has one, and in hers you can feel it surge when you hit 2krpm in the first 3 gears, quite pronounced. Dan

^^^ Yea they say cross country it is far better than it really has any right to be and keeps up with some far more exotic machinary. Let's face it though, pretty much everything is more exotic than a Vauxhall Vectra hehe :) Dan

I'd imagine in 90% of real world (I.e. not on a track) situations the Corsa would be quicker than the 197. Such as in the Evo mag review where when chasing a VXR up a windy mountain road, the 197 couldn't keep up... I love the 197, but I respect the VXR for what it is as well. Here's the...

Anyone know where I can get a Vee bed cover and duvet set...? Dan

Awesome to the max :D Dan

I love Dubai's apparent attitude to driving :) That bit on top gear where they just closed a road so May could do 190 in the Bentley Flying Spur heh! RS4s also make me a little bit pert - good work in hanging onto it! Dan

Any chance of a pic of the engine bay? Has it seen the rollers yet :D ? What is the engine? VAG 1.8 or something? Sorry if this has been answered before :) Dan

They look crackin on the road too - real presence. I'd have red or black - blue will be common hehe :) Bluefin and Remus - YKIMS ;) So about £12-£13k you musta paid then? Fookin bargain for a brand spanker that! It'll still be worth that in a years time I bet! The non-optional 17s are gash...

Heh, a mate of mine had a C2 GT and her's was exactly like that. Literally every journey was a game of "What's it gonna beep about this time..." She owned it 2 years nearly, and I genuinely don't think a month went by without it hitting the dealers with another problem. And LOL @ Saxo VTS...

To be honest, you're gonna struggle to get £12k for it privately looking at PistonHeads - not trying to piss on your bonfire mate sorry heh. Maybe consider the economics a bit more carefully though, might be worth it if you're willing to roll in a £6k 172 instead heh :) Dan

Pretty fair review - he didn't slate it, just said it needed to be a bit quicker. What's wrong with that? Dan

Dan

Haha awesome :D Dan

Is it useable with that much through the front wheels? Surely it spins up in top hehe :D Dan

Monaco Ph1 - AWESOME. Dan

480bhp! Nice. Is it still FWD...? Dan

5th and 6th gears are meant to be longer I beleive. The change is quite minimal though heh. And "80 is about 200 - 300 rpm under 5000rpm" - Jesus christ, people weren't kidding when they said they were high revving then.... Dan

^^^ Oops my bad heh :) I remember thinking at the time I wouldn't have thought Lux pack and Cup pack were possible together. Dan

Good lad, run it in the Italian way or you might end up with a slow one hehe ;) Dan

Loving the roofless Elise in the rain haha :D Dan

Nice location at the castle :) Car looks well! Dan

I assume you let it get warm, then beat the f**k out of it on the way home yea ;) ? Dan

It'll break down, daily, but when it works it'll re-arrange your organs with it's straight line speed... And by f**k they're an ugly, ugly car. Dan

No one in the world is gonna agree with me here, but, I preferred the 207 GTI (same engine and box...) - neither are fast cars (or at least, they don't feel it) but the 207 was loads comfier and much better value IMHO. I think a 182 would shake off a standard Cooper S turbo without much hassle...

Perfectly legal - paint it if you want. Dan

http://www.pistonheads.com/sales/379928.htm Is there a catch I'm missing here? Ok, 39k in 2 years, but it's still an 06 plate and 39k isn't exactly intergalactic... Dan
