My Dad had a mk2, full roll cage, amazing machine! I expected some respect just for loving cool cars lol! Turns out my opinion on cool+old cars is wrong!

I am a fuckwit who cant handle a proper car...i would choose a mint Mk2 Mexico over a brand spanking Focus RS. Regardless of speed (i have no experience of either) old wins everytime!

Thats sweet! My Cousin/Uncles business did all of the pattern work for the Ginetta Cup racers - random fact! Good pics, can't wait to get on track!

I've got a yozza decat on my std system i think, sounds slightly meatier but nowhere near loud. You wouldn't notice the difference if you didnt know about it though.

Michelin Pilot Exalto 2 205/45/16 82V are the tyres we want mate. Normally £100-£110 I think.

^ Snap.

lol, i'm hoping this is a joke from the other thread?!

I think it is worth the money, awesome colour, stupidly low miles and the advert wording 'shows' the car is well looked after. Lol at Cat, i want to say the same thing, when I hit 21 with 4ncb my drive will be filled with one of these, 100%

Think you're autotrader price is wrong, I'll give you £4.10 ;)

If i was in a position to insure a V6 i would have that without doubt! God damn being 19!

Check your tyre pressures, air contracts when cold, so in effect lowers the PSI in the tyres. Mine have got noticably 'squashy' in the cold, so put a few more PSI's in; could have an effect.

Saved up and everything paid for outright. Loans suck ass.

Where you from in Derby mate? What colour/reg is your 172, i might have seen you out and about.

I think it is around 19-20kgs when i weighed mine.

Would you do some custom work mate? I think one would make a good present for my dad, not of my car though ;) Looks awesome.

Yeah you're right Welsh, i did the same thing, bought an extra wheel as a spare.

I don't bother turning it off unless I know I'm gonna push the car, not that it makes any difference anyways. Everytime i forget to turn it off and it cuts in I get angrier about not buying a 172 cup!

Re: What will she make??? 172 voters on this poll too......lol

Nice one mate. I was right about my guess of 170bhp+ too :D

Off for me, I find on the limit when I go too far, I've already corrected it myself, then the TC kicks in and sends me the opposite way. Seems very delayed. It's good for someone like my mum, but for anyone who knows a few things about car control I think it's a bit rubbish really. Makes a...

The 36k on my 182 at Renault, including Aux belt was £350ish about 4/5 months ago if thats any help? Seems very high!

Hmm, that is very tempting....I'll keep an eye on this thread ;)

I paid £1800 on my 1.2 at 17, then £1100 on it modified at 18, then £1300 on my Lupo Gti at 19, but bumped up to £1800 when I bought the 182. Wish I kept my 1.2 to be honest, renewal way £490 at 19 with 2NCB!

Is this the one that the RS Tuning guy has had done? What rough prices have been thrown about with it, if any?

I can fit them, but not able to do camber/tracking etc.

Cheers dude, got it back now :D

Can't seem to find it, but I am pretty basic on computers....it's on Vista. 18tooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo i went to empty it but clicked on delete by accident, then entered as i was reading it saying delete and not empty, oops!

How can I get it back?!

Hence why they have a 6 speed gearbox with lower ratios, helps haul the higher wieght along at a very similar speed. They wouldnt make the 197 slower than the previous model 182, but also no faster as thats where the Megane comes in.

I always start the car and leave it for about a minute, sort my phone out etc, before getting going, helps a lot but can still feel it for a few minutes. Mate was having a similar thing with his 197, got the dealer to do the cold start fix thing on it and says its miles better, not available...
