Looks good in black B**ch to keep clean though!

If it feels quicker and more driveable I'd be happy:D

Don't ruin it..leave it looking pretty std:D

Don't let it drop...these little kunts need to learn now. A car theft for £2 but what next...stabbing other kids for a mobile or something? Good luck getting it sorted out

A very light tint professionally done would look good. Go too dark and all round and it'll end up looking gash

Modulation is the word for this control. I'm running OE pads and discs and find them okay for pedal feel.

Always used SU 97RON petrol in the 172 and found it to be fine Best MPG I've got with it is 36

F**k me....that is steep

Different market isn't it....I'd say the Focus was more in competition with the Megane than the Clio. The Fiesta doesn't coem anywhere hear the 182 in a lor of car tests.

Agree I know someone who had a Golf TDI (only a year old) and it was in and out of the garage having parts replaced etc. more than any Renault I've owned.

Both awful

Probably getting too close to RS Megane sector of the market and I'd probably buy one of those instead of the new Clio anyway.

Weclome to CS. Nice car..I also have an iceberg silver 172 and am very happy with it so far. I would never pay £1600 on insurance though...the performance is good but not that good.

Not much...only use my 172 once, twice a week.

Mustang...oh yes....check out my avatar...there's a classic Mustang image, rears smoked up too:D

Gone for performance....wouldn't spend any money changing wheels or doing body modifications as I think the 172/182 is a nice looking car as it is....mush prefer to see a nice, well looked after std looking car.

Green cotton in mine and TBH I haven't noticed much difference....quality filter though and should last a long time. Better option that running some open cone just for a bit of noise.

Agree...just make sure it's warmed up properly and you should be okay.

I got quoted around £300 for an OE Renault exhaust for my 172 Went and bought a k-tec Stealth instead.

182 all the way Not only has it got a better engine the Fiesta ST looks absolute gash.

I've never had any warranty on any car I've owned. My 52 plate 172 seems to be running okay (touch wood) but if anything goes wrong thats just the downside to motoring....I'll probably fix it myself or go to a non Renault garage anyway for cheaper prices.

TBH if I was really hungry for more power I'd sell up and buy another car with a turbocharged engine....seems like quite a job & money to convert the OE lump.

Welcome to CS Nice cars silver 172s...I've got one as well:D

Nice cars but I'd be reluctant myself to pay £900 in insurance for a 172/182..they are quick but not that quick. Up to you though, if you really want one that badly, get the money down and realise the dream:D

Wouldn't drive on boost with a defective chargecooler. What is wrong with it..leaking or completely fooked?

Probably a few shandies down the pub...kunts. I don't remember doing anything like that myself...being car enthusiast I've always had respect for other peoples motors regardless of type/price etc.

Det is definately the problem as it is in most turbo engines when upping the boost. Should be okay though by using good fuel and getting it mapped by someone who knows what they are doing.

Seeing that makes me so, so angry:mad: Hope you get it sorted soon

Bit of WD40 on nuts the day before your going to do the job always helps if rust is an issue

Could try Demon Tweeks..they stock a s** load of filters...think the K&N panel is around £25
