    172 or 182? Help, I can't decide!

    Fuel economy varies . I saw an average of 28mpg on my 172 , see the same on my 182 but i've also seen extraordinary claims of 50mpg :eek: . It's basically the same car , same engine . The extra 10bhp on the 182 is a bit of a marketing ploy , more to do with keeping up with the competition i.e...

    172 or 182? Help, I can't decide!

    +1 If the 182 was any other colour i'd have gone for that . Silvers a boring colour , seems like 70% of cars on the road are silver .

    insurance

    And if you don't lose or break it it's money down the drain . So stick it in your pocket at the next gig after using it so you know it's safe .

    insurance

    Why waste your money on insurance ? Keep your phone safe and out of sight in your pocket and take care of it . Unless your an habbitual loser of phones i wouldn't waste my money . I've never lost or had a phone nicked ever . Maybe i'm just careful eh ;)

    What is this?

    Depends how old your car is . You get a 3 year warranty so if it was registered before November 2005 you'll be just out of your warranty .

    Fair?

    Sorry mate , but i had to laugh when i read your post . Why oh why did you feel the need to ring your insurance company when it was only the element you replaced ? Like Peperami said . The person you spoke to probably didn't realise what you had actually done . As soon as you mentioned K+N...

    Bearshare gone for a s**t in the woods?

    Limewire throws up alot more than 5 Frankie Goes To Hollywood for me . I'd check your settings , go into options and check your allowing certain files . Not that i'd use Limewire or the likes for music . Lots of other better options out there ;)

    Standard alarm and immobiliser

    It came with a factory fitted immobiliser . As you say the alarm was fitted at the import centre at the docks . It has one immobiliser , the alarm fitted is exactly what it says it is an " alarm " .

    Standard alarm and immobiliser

    Wrong . The immobiliser and alarm are separate on the Clio . It very much doubtful the immobiliser will have been removed . If it's anything like my Toad alarm it will have been intergrated with the immobiliser and use the original Renault keyfob for both . 2 immobilisers ??? :eek: The...

    172 for trophy or 182

    High mileage ? So what ?? Is it actually costing you alot to run , expensive repair bills etc .... ? If not i'd keep it if your happy with it . Sounds to me like you've go so used to it your itching for a change . Maybe look at different marque altogether .

    Which is the best drive, 182 or 172

    You know that , and i know that , but DrRollo doesn't seem to know that lol !

    Which is the best drive, 182 or 172

    Haha , the full fat police are out :quiet: My 172 was definitely fully loaded ;)

    Which is the best drive, 182 or 172

    A fully loaded 172 as you like to call it is the same as the full fat 182 ( waits for the full fat police , lol ) . They have the leather interior , aircon , climate control , xenons , upgraded speakers , in the 182 it's a newer update list cd player in the dash rather than the tuner list in...

    Which is the best drive, 182 or 172

    Yeah , 182 with cup packs . Speedwise there was no difference in my 182 with cup packs compared to my (full fat ;) )172 , but handling wise there was definitely a difference with the 182 over the 172 , some of that could be partly down to the exaltos , the slightly lower stiffer suspension and...

    Which is the best drive, 182 or 172

    I've owned both also and couldn't agree more :) The 172 cup interior looks cheap imo plus i couldn't do without the creature comforts and xenons of my 182 .

    engine flush - yes or no?

    I was told by Guy from opieoils never to flush the engine . Just change the oil and filter , job done .

    Engine Gone, what to do???

    ^^^ I'd see a solicitor then .

    Engine Gone, what to do???

    I'd get back in touch with the dealership that did the work . The engine shouldn't have packed up , sounds like bad workmanship , they should replace it . Try ringing the insurance company also and explain the situation as they are the ones who had to foot the bill in the first place .

    Stressed!

    They dent very easily , they are made out of tin foil ;) Keep searching , your bound to come across a good one eventually . The guy i sold my 172 to said the same as you . He'd viewed 6 172's before mine and all had been abused apparently .

    Telling insurance it's an import

    No , you don't need to tell them . Your confusing parallel imports with grey imports , grey imports usually being from countries like Japan where they have different specs , like no rear fog light , underseal ......
