Saw it yesterday in Autocar, apparently better than the standard, got good ratings and harris was driving it so say no more.
The wheels look really nice to:D
Ill say it again, NO CAMBELT CHANGE! Only auxilary (sp) belt change. My 36k service was about 280-300 but would have to dig out the old invoice to be sure.
I think the aux belt is the alternator belt. It;s only supposed to be checked and not a part of the actual service but worth changing as...
NO CAMBELT CHANGE AT 36K, look in the manual?!?!
Its the aux belt and doesnt cost over 200 notes, just over 100 IIRC when mine was done at 36k. The garage might want to change your spark plugs to so make sure you check that one aswell, thats done on the 72k I think?

Right then, firstly thanks bad for doing this and secondly, what do peeps think of the anthracite wheels? Although cupcakes looks the dogs danglies Ive always wanted dark wheels. Just as nice imo but wondered what you lot all think?
My policy runs out on the 30th of december so might see what i can sort out as soon as.
ive just sorted all my breakdown cover (£26.90 with the AA) and european cover, the euro cover being free which isnt bad.
Im with directline who have bee very good up until my last renewal when my premium went up.
Greenlight, thats who Ive heard about before, any contact details?
Finally got round to declaring my H&Rs and pro speed exhaust...£244 extra on my policy!
The guy even said changing the colour of my wheels would affect it to. Is there an insurer that you guys use specific for Renault or hot hatches?

Few folk have gone for de cats but it makes your dash light up like a christmas tree with all the warning lights.
i know its not a 182 but my 172 cup has a pro speed with decat. ive had 2 different back boxes made up (me being picky)...
I went onto the opposite side of the road the other night ging round a blind 2nd gear slow corner the other night. I know the road well to so know not to welly it there but it was very greasy and thank f**k no one was coming.
Hate this grimey weather. Dry today though.
Thats it mike and yeah get a settlement figure from the finance company. You can pay over longer and probably with a lower APR.
AA are good as are directline. Theres loads of loans out there.
Might get them to send it all in writing to me, thatll prove how genuine it is.
Im only curious 1. because they phoned my work number and 2, cos the 172 cup isnt a current model anymore.
