welcome mate. looks a really nice example. im sorely tempted by arctic blue next, its a really nice colour.

Wow that was posh! I had 2 lessons in a corsa 1.2 so swore I’d never own one. My first new(ish) car was a Clio 1.2 16v such was the hate for the corsa. Lol

Awesome car this is. Did I read right, your going to teach people to drive in this?? Why didn’t we have anything like this back when I was learning? I learnt to drive in a 1.25 fiesta.

I think that suits it well. Another boat missed by Renault with the Renaultsport colours.

Yeah, common. I managed to fix one at work on the car park in a lunch break so not hard at all, did get some looks though being upside down in the drivers seat though. Ha. For a free fix it would be worth a look anyway. Are you replacing the sensor due to a buzzing noise? If so they all do it I...

It could be the cog on the motor has broken. This has happened on two of the three Clio 172/182’s I’ve owned and this fix has solved it. It’s a pain to get to but generally easy to fix. If you scroll down this link you’ll see the pictures of how to sort it with a small cable tie or similar and...

No pictures but my first car was a mini 998cc city on a C reg. Purchased in the dark and wasn’t perfect but god I loved it. Went to mini in the park in oxford and back and never had so much fun! Straight away fitted minilites, new plates and a speedo/rev counter from a cooper. Amazingly the...

Awesome car!! I’m definitely in the wrong job!

WOW!! I never got to see it before but that looks minty fresh! Brilliant read this has been, and so warming to see that Cs still has members who will look after each other. Enjoy it dave!!

Hello, welcome and congrats on your purchase. I still remember the day I got my 182, loved every second of that car!! As said get some pictures up!!

I have the urge to buy one now as I didn't have one when I was younger. only problem now is that most are quickly rotting away!

Just go to a local exhaust place and ask them. They will be able to knock one up and fit it for a lot less than you think. Definitely worth a try.

Great work and super nice gesture @HMS Derv Destroyer. Really does go to show how amazing this place is really, much more than just a car forum, it’s occupied by real, caring, helpful people.

I’ve driven one and absolutely loved it! The gearbox is definitely great to use, the car felt tight and handled really well I thought. If only I was in the market for a new car I’d snap one up without a doubt.

I like tiff, as above felt the Plato/Needell team was good. Just despised the fact that every car he drove had to slide around a corner, even a diesel hatch!

Hello and welcome. Car looks nice.

I removed the centre silencer on mine, sounded a little louder. Might be a safer trial idea?

@cs_dave has killed so many that figure from 2017 is already out! ;p

Welcome from an ex PB owner. I regret selling mine to this day and would have it back in a heart beat. Such an amazing colour and love how it divides opinion. Look forward to your thread and photos.

Needs more pics but the beading on the one you’ve posted is impressive. Well done.

Ah yes indeed you do. :(

I thought the hook on the Petrol filler was to hang the actual cap, not keys??

I only have iPhones, but this has been speculation for years but now they’ve come out and admitted it with a feasible reason for it, people are going mad! I get it’s not great, but I’d be surprised if the android software didn’t do similar to keep phones going.

Definitely do not sell it, you WILL regret it. I regret my 182 and my first 172 sales!! Maybe look at suspension changes and some better seats?

Cheaper to buy a brand new carbon sport in a better colour!

Love that but not in that colour!! Such a beast of a car.

Headlight restoration kit too. ;)

Looks beautiful mate. Love the Turinis on it and if I’d kept mine I’d have put some on. The black bits also make it.

THats awesome! How much abarth stuff is on it? The engine isn’t far off the same apart from the turbo etc. Love the seats. Miss mine a lot as it was great fun to drive and didn’t look like anything special. Also lol at the bookface group saddo’s throwing you off. It looks better than some...
