I have the squeeking on full right lock from the drivers side, its due to get fixed next week. I suspect its something to do with the top of the suspension.

Engine clunk is a common problem, ive had it and had new engine mounts fitted under warranty. Clunk fixed.

I was looking at £8000-£9000 for a trade in on my cupped 182 (6 months old, about 6500 miles on the clock).

spend £2k more and get this maybe? http://brdwd.co.uk/cgi-bin/details.pl?v_vin=SN04HZG

Posted this in the exterior/mechanical forum by mistake. Spent a day washing and waxing my silver 182, here are the results: http://www.aoth56.dsl.pipex.com/washed/clio1.jpgPic1 http://www.aoth56.dsl.pipex.com/washed/clio2.jpgPic2 http://www.aoth56.dsl.pipex.com/washed/clio3.jpgPic3...

Holy christ, very impressed with that GTiR vid !!! Thats one capable clio. Martin, whats the spec of your car again? Williams engine with cams in a stripped valver? Whats the power output? What 0-60 is it capable of?

Yeah, thats exactly why i bought a brand new one. I wanted the warranty, i wanted no MOTs for a couple of years, i wanted the new smell, i wanted for the first time ever to own a brand new car at 23 without anyone else having driven it/smoked in it/ragged the tits off it.

13cm

£12500 last November with metallic paint, both cup packs.

Aiee, i dont blame you for getting rid of it then!! I did have a few faults (first gear knocking, coolant temp sensor, passenger door not locking/unlocking), but my local Reg Vardy Renault were very quick/polite people when it comes to getting warranty work done - it was free and done in an...

Ive seen one heading from Edinburgh towards Livingston before, fitting this description.

Here in Scotland, i thought at first "who needs aircon", but it was sweltering last night and the night before; even at midnight. The 182 climate control is superb.

mine doesnt rattle, mine tends to "jiggle" when going over bumps and rough bits of road. If its billiard table smooth, then fantastic!! If only the roads were that smooth in the uk.

Its a great little car, good speed, handles great. It doesnt have Audi build quality although the leather/alcantara is nice as is the soft touch dash; ive had a few niggling faults with mine (fixed promptly under warranty). To be honest, the novelty of the pace tends to wear off and I...

Of those two, the Trophy. But in honesty, for that money, neither. I went and had a look at a V plate Audi TT 225 quattro yesterday for £12495. The saving of £1000 could be used for a) insurance b) Revo remap to 270 bhp c) Spend £500 on the major service it was due in 6 months and the rest on...

Not where I live, if someone follows you its usually to give you a lamping. Id find it a little bit aggresive if someone followed me for apparently no reasons. Once i knew it was to chat about a car, then id be fine.

Spotted an iceberg silver lowered MK2 172 in Edinburgh with the above reg, looked really mint - anyone on here?

Try Reg Vardy Renault in Livingston.

Purely sound quality reasons. The new Alpine headunit made a huge difference to the sound, then i upgraded to an amp/new speakers which made an even bigger difference. Combined with a sub in the boot, removal of rears and components in the front - the sound is truly amazing.

yes, thats truly fugly

What about this then: http://brdwd.co.uk/cgi-bin/details.pl?v_vin=V420ESG Just think jabba 270 bhp remap.

I believe some amps accept high level inputs. You can also buy "high level to RCA" convertors from Halfrauds which will give you a line level output from left/right pairs of wires. I was thinking of doing what you did, but I was strongly advised not to. I bit the bullet and upgraded the...

Heres a challenge for you, whip the back seats out and dump the engine in the back and make it rear wheel drive. Shouldnt cost too much * * :p

ok ill give that a try

Anyone had a blast of curry smell from the air con in the 182? Probably my fault for not having it well used during the winter and there may be germs in the system somewhere. Its not all the time, only had it twice since the warmer weather came in. Do you think i should swing by the...
