Looks a lovely example, good luck with the sale.

Yeah I’ve had a 182 and two 172’s and I was amazed with the mpg they returned. Love the look of yours. The rear with the tips does look complete and finished.

Looks lovely mate. Really like these, but I’m tight and the mpg scares me. Ha.

I drove a non-cup 200 a while ago. I really liked it but as has been echoed above on the 10 mile test drive I didn’t quite gel with it. The salesman was pushing me on and although it was quick the gearbox has a few niggles like slow to react. I was driving a merc slushbox auto so it was much...

Lol at the prices though, rrp £2085, our price £2295.41...... seems a bargain! Car looks lovely. A couple of houses near me have them and they look the business. Ones orange and looks amazing, but I like the stealthy look of the black.

I managed to do mine on a 172 without removing the hub. I smacked the top bit off with a chisel and hammer and then drilled it out. Worked a dream and the new one fitted straight in. Did the sandpaper trick on it as well.

Looks really nice there. Lovely back drop too. RAF Cosford? Looks a nice clean car, credit to you.

Really nice cars you photographed there. Thanks! Looks like a good day, with some beautiful cars on show.

I’ve had both the ph1 gearstick in my 182 and a richbrook round knob on my 172. Ph1 was brilliant feeling but the richbrook was equally nice. They pop up now and then (ph1) for around £20-25. Not fun fitting it though.

Sorry to read about your lows. Welcome back. Car looks lovely. Congrats and enjoy!

That looks really great. Well done. Just a shame we have to drive with front number plates!

Also the seats in a 182 were ever so a lightly different, with a dotted Alcantara insert in the seat. You can tell the difference. Also you could measure the suspension bolt holes to see if it’s cup packed, as it has a cup rear spoiler.

As said above it wouldn’t be the first time cars were registered incorrectly. My 1st 172 was a cup apparently, despite actually being a normal 172. I would bet it is a 182 as has also been said above, can’t see someone changing the rear boot floor just for an exhaust.

Iirc the boot floor of he 182 did look ‘messed with’ or an afterthought. As the body and bodywork was pretty much the same. Im sure 2004 saw both the last 172 and early 182 models, so chances are it is. What colour is it? Post a picture as that will give clues too.

Very nice, love the Recaros. Really like these. Almost bought one a while back, gutted I’ve not tried one.

Nice to see you in another ph1 mate. Looks like a really nice example.

Absolutely beautiful mate. Congrats! Bet the days are dragging!! I think it looks really nice on those wheels, different to the usual black multi spokes.

Ph1 172 gearstick or richbrook ball gearknob changes the feel. Nice exhaust and enjoy!

this is worrying for a future purchase. I thought this era Clio didn’t rust so I was under the impression they were treated. Scary to see rust down there. Reminds me of the old minis.

Iirc driving without insurance is 6 points and a fine, mot and tax will be dealt with via a fine by dvla I think. Maybe a ban as he failed to even do one of the three. Stupid though because of the risk to others. I can’t see how anyone can get away with it nowadays though.

What a transformation and a great start!!

it def looks too low for springs alone. As above, once the headlights are polished up it will look even better. I need another 182!! Miss mine! ?

Looks nice. Definitely get some more pictures up. (Looks like a Fabia splitter in the pics, not a bad thing, most people have fitted them!) also got the bonus of Turini’s!!

Looks really nice for the miles! Us indicators I believe. Bmw and vw people have them.

It has more weight to it and just feels better, more positive. Might have been in my mind but it felt good.

I’ve fitted both in the past. The ph1 gearstick should come complete as the whole unit so replaces your existing one and was the nicest but also the more difficult of the two having to lower the exhaust slightly to fit it. (Might be able to manoeuvre round it) but was the best for feel in my...

Awesome project and an epic other owned list! Love racing blue, and the pictures look amazing.

Beautiful mate! I quite like the grill stickers, not as offensive as some stickers you see.... +1 on the steep drive!

Really nice cup. I’m sure I saw you the other week at aldi. You made me regret not getting another renaultsport clio! Looked really nice though.

I had the same situation at the same point roughly putting the bolt back in when I changed my rear springs on my old 172. Renault didn’t stock it but I managed to get a bolt from a local little nut and bolt shop which apparently was stronger. Had to get someone to drill it out for me because I...
