    Searching for buying guide and owner experience of the 172 and 182 FF

    You have to be a member to read those pages. 6k /6month oil changes are a worthwhile idea on the cars not necessary for warently in the Uk etc but is ideal.

    Clio 172 cup v Clio williams?

    Both the Williams and Cup (stock ones) with stock tyres will do 8.45 minute laps with the same confident track knowedged driver behind the wheel. Eddd on here lives near the ring and owned both and said they were just as quick. Personally the ring is a superb ideal to give you an idea...

    Unhappy with 182... but what to do!!!

    MX5? MR2? MGF? (Ok maybe not the last one but to be fair its a good car) Forget fitting bits its not worth it. Stock or chnage IMO you've taken a big change a good WIlliams to a 182 and most drivers would be disappointed.

    Honest Insurance Valuation

    £3k I'd say would be a good payout. I'd expect they'd offer £2.5k and you can settle about £2.6~2.7

    How much you rekon my cars' worth ?

    IMO get the milage on the clock fixed and don't tell the next owner. Would put people off otherwise.

    Unhappy with 182... but what to do!!!

    Somehting RWD maybe for a charge. The Williams is the more fun car IMO going to a 182 whilst maybe quicker ins't as fune the Mk1 172 is the cloest to the Williams for fun and enjoyment.

    The possible plans for my car? Please give some views.

    Well new springs and dampers yep but you could hopefully get away with using stock dampers and maybe just uprated springs which are cheap to have made and some weight reduction. The 2.0 Alloys block TDI would be one option as its way lighter but not sure its head will match to the 1.9 block it...

    The Cup shell is the same as the none RS shell and the 172/182 shell its just not type approved to tow but since the cars are the same you can fit a toe bar just like a standard none RS could have. Most polaces don't know and dealers have been known to fit tow bars before now. Its not just a...

    The possible plans for my car? Please give some views.

    I own a diesel at the moment though so whiulst lpg does work on a diesel by helping and buring so you can make more power the high injector pressures would be a pain plus I'm still left with the risk of an expensive set of injectors which can fail and no lower rpm on the motorway. The 172/182...
