Well id like to know how you got Tescos that low!
My G/F is currently insured with them and spoke to them yesterday and the Tesco woman said they wiil NOT give insurance on a hot hatch car to anyone who hasnt been driving for a year!
So im a bit puzzled with that mate.

True...
I dont think it is true but i could be wrong!
Reason i say that...
Lol jon:D SAS are needed around these parts!
Did say 10k miles, but didnt say Garage, said driveway.
Ive added my dad and G/F and it helps but still getting loke quotes:devilish:
I am strongly considering letting her be the main policy holder but with that she has to be the registered...

Who buys a high performance hot hatch without thinking about the group 16 insurance????:o. I cannot believe what Im reading.
Erm not being funny mate but ive already said id looked into the insurance BEFORE buying and was well...
Some witty replies there!
Raised a smile from me anyway:)
Right, where to start? tried confused.com and i think the cheapest was around £3,000 believe or not.
E-mailed Adrain Flux for a quote, no reply as yet.
BRUN, i did expect to pay a quite high price but these quotes just take...
May have to get rid and ive only had it 2 days!
Before anyone says anything i know, i know:cry:
Heres whats up. Got my new 182 on Wed, and now i cant insure the fckin thing:@
Reason being is because ive only been driving for under a year but im 28 ( how i wish id started driving when...
Madness!! cant believe your thinking of selling up.
*edit* btw i completly understand though, but after picking mine up yesterday i cant imagine getting rid so soon.
Oh i think you should get a good price for it 12k maybe?
Cheers guys, sorting the insurance out now so ill be enjoying it later:D
blackcat, that sounds about right that, same circumstances as me.
Pete_172, done:D
Yeah, i thought that aswell CocoPops but she was really being helpful and even took it upon herself to cross of the things on my checklist!
Apparantly they are not supposed to sell them but i can say whatever i like once 6 months have elapsed she said, strange.
Apoligies as youre all probably bored with yet another, ive picked my new 182 up thread!
Anyways, finally after waiting a long time for it i got my hands on the beast.
1st impressions, the photos ive seen on here do not do it justice, it looks stunning in real life better than id thought...

Im just trying to gauge how much longer mine will be.
Nope ordered mine thru a broker and could have had it in July!
I was on...

The rear spoiler is also easy as the normal spoiler has a clear brake lens whereas the cup spoiler has a red brake lens.
Cheers Dave i know exactly what to look for now.
Funkyjahooner, youre not wrong mate, im wishing the hours...
Hope theres no cracked headlights on mine or ill kick off big time:@
In those pics, simons car is quite hard to make out if he has a spoiler:confused: looks the same as Lees car!...or is my eyesight that bad!
Thanks Louise, i was thinking less than 10 would be ok so
you saying 7 is good enough for me.
Anyone want to try and answer my other questions:oops:
Muchos Gracias:)
It will be like Christmas all over again:D
Got a couple of questions though. Ive printed off the 182 checklist (cheers guys) so i know whats what but the spoiler/splitter bit is worring me a little.
Read about some of you guys not getting one or the other or both!
How do i know im...
Picking my 182 up on Wednesday but they are shut till Tuesday:(
Tried ringing them, no one there. I need to know who i make the Bankers Draft payable to?
An ideas because i need to sort it out today with my bank.
Ta in advance.
Yep dave is correct re: saying £12694 will be pre-registered as thats what ill be paying out next Wed for mine :D
Doesnt bother me that its pre-registered as im getting a decent saving on list price.

and I cant imagine many people who are loaded enough to have the sort of money in cash would even look twice at a Clio...
Oops i had 14k in cash and i went for a Clio, im daft i know :D
I could have had mine at the end of July!
I decided to wait because im not impatient and i had a car to run around in while i wait.
If i were you, id defo wait now.

Alright guys,
I need some advice regards getting a new HeadUnit. Ive done a bit of a search and could only find 1 pic with a new HU installed (Tomclio182) which i thought looked very good.
The thing is that Alpine 9833 is a little too expensive for me:(
So can anyone suggest ( posting...
I was going to say thats expensive but then clocked your age.
Try Liv Vic and Admiral who are by all accounts amongst the cheapest.
Ill be looking for myself soon so keep us posted who you end up with mate.
182storm, just seen your post.
I guess it isnt then, but that guy i used to work with had his very similer and he never had a prob as far as i know.
I may chance it, ill hardly get locked up for it... on second thoughts!
Does anyone think id get away with this as a plate?

To me it doesnt look too illegal! and a guy at my previous work had a Man City <---- :@ one, very similer to this.
What you reckon? and what would happen if i got pulled (...
