I think the Red Edition looks bloody brilliant personally. The standard colour palette was all monochrome apart from Nitrous. Red should have been a standard colour option. You could never expect too many interior changes. They've added the choice options, what else were they going to do? The...

I was never that into the black badges. With the chrome in the lights, I think chrome badges look fine. I'd definitely try some different wheels. The ones you have are probably the best of the OEM ones (apart from the Trophy-R Speedlines), but the right aftermarket wheels transform these cars in...

Looks great that, love lovely spec too. Just sold my 265 and really missing it already.

Nice collection!

Brilliant. It will certainly turn heads! I saw a mountune Fiesta ST driving school car the other day. I learned in a bloody 1.0 Corsa C!

Bloody love this colour

Just had a read through this, lovely car. I look at these more and more as time goes on, would really like to add a 197 or 200 to the fleet. The re-trim is just spot-on.

Looks lovely that

I assume they'd fit any Cup-packed 182, as I think the rest of the suspension is the same. I might be wrong, but don't think you can get them anymore.

That MK1 RS is lovely, but I think I'd rather have one I could use and enjoy.

But now you need to buy another spoiler 😂

I could not in a million bring myself to spend £5k+ on a 1*2. I love them to bits, but that's mental money considering they're not that old or that collectible yet.

Shame about the problems. Sounds like you were going well up to that point!

Cheers guys, good to meet those of you I haven't met before! Fun little blast along the coast road too! Few pictures from the sea front: Look forward to the next one! Can't remember who suggested it, but doing something at Snetterton could be cool. Nice run up the coast when we get...

I totally get that and, in terms of driving enjoyment, I would be 100% with you, handling over power any day. However, most real world driving isn't about threading a car anywhere. In the real world, good mid range grunt and comfort is much easier to live with for most people. Different strokes...

Cheers for making it happen @T9 OLLE

It's a lovely car that, very rare as a right hooker too. Just let him go and be happy that you aren't paying the bills to maintain the thing 😂

Is that Pete Walton?

@T9 0LLE or @182_steve could one of you PM me your mobile number? Will hopefully be about but might be a bit late, so if you could keep me posted about where you are, that would be spot on

Megane over Civic, all day long. If it isn't fast enough, add intercooler and map, job done.

Looks great that. Hope you have a good one!

Love this thread, nice to read about the car in detail. A shame about the issues, hopefully be sorted soon.

That is such a lovely looking car.

Yeah the Meg is pretty luxury compared to the Clio! If only the dent had been caused by me and not my mate who I let have a go 😂

There is a lot of sense in this. I do really like the 197/200, they are great cars and, if I wasn't doing many miles, I would certainly consider one. However, the above is true, modern turbocharged cars do make so much sense in the real world. Had many a debate with vtec fanboys I know who claim...

My friend paid about £6k for his 130i M-Sport, has 60-odd thousand on the clock. Nice car for the money really. Bit different to the usual suspects.

Only a small list then 😂

We can try and hide our cars behind each other then 😂

It has a pretty nice armco-shaped dent in it from Snetterton a few years ago 😂

I'm actually using it to go to work and back this week :smile: Took a deposit on the Megane, so Clio is on temporary daily duties. It's not a nice experience to be honest 😂
