alternators have a limited life, they all die one day, think mine is going after only 3 years lol

yeah thats true

some people have too much money :( love that black 1

no sorry that was on my car lol

its because 182s are like gold dust in some places where they dont sell them, they can sell them and make a bomb!

then the full fat boys will rip into you about not having xenons or climate control ;) there just gelous LOL

on the insurance front i got a quote lastnight for £360 a year which cant be right for a 17year old, was direct line, i double checked all the details and it was all spot on

what happens if you crash and f**k one of your shocks, how do you fix it if even reno cant get a replacement?

my 1.2 16v idles at about 600rpm and drops to 500rpm if i put the heated rear window on lol not stalled yet

suits they wheels, i would get a dynamique spoiler for it then get it colour coded along with the door handles then decide if you want the bump strips done too, personal preference them sometimes it looks too much when they are colour coded.

i would probably go for the Cupra R, love the styling and its ment to be a cracking engine, especially when its revo'd. i would have to go for the 225 model because of they cracking wheel!

what a fuckin tosser, hope your mrs is ok tell her if it happens in future stick it in first and dump the clutch lol nice of the guy behind to at least try and help too

i cant even remember the reg think it was an 03 though! i just heard someone beep then reving and turned round to get blinded with xenons! probably someone 1 went to school with or somthing lol

worst part is if my dad hadnt been in the car i would have probably lowered to his level and started bouncing off the limiter lol

nope had no music on because i was ordering, got no sport badge and no aftermarket exhaust its a standard dynamique from the back, not even lowered yet

lol the guy looked younger than me and his engine sounded quite tappety so probably drives it like hes nicked it from cold. sitting giving my order in the drive thru and ive got some guy beep then start revving at me!

this one had a full zorst system with decat, K&N and remaped, guy claimed 198bhp (not sure if that was bullshit or not) so it was quite fast but yeah still not that fast. need to get myself a run in a 172/182 to see how it compaired

Some tosser revving the c**t off his red 172 behind me with big ugly cheap looking 17s. dont think ive seen it on here but any of the falkirk lads know who im talking about?

i would go for 15s if you want to keep the nippy feeling, i know 17s totaly kills the acceleration, not sure about 16s

ive only been in an ST170 not an RS but even the grip that had amazed me, the RS is ment to be even better.

i love the looks of the RS, if i wanted a car to thrash down backroads then id take the Focus RS but if i wanted somthing to cruise up and down the motorway and turn heads going through town then it would have to be the VEE i mean ive never drove a V6 so im just going on what ive read but do...

ive heard some oils can make the 172/182 engines noise, not had an oil change recently have you?

your a good driver! look at the difference of the fuel guage on the video where you spin and they 2 you posted in your first post of this thread :D

bit of a bummer not getting it back for xmas :( going this long without a car must be crap when your used to having it there to get you about, you not fancy getting yourself a little cheap diesel run arround to get you about untill its done?

im so gelous of you, i will own one as a weekend car one day! :D i hope/wish lol

my 1.2 16v has done 117,000 (not a typo actually ment 117,000) miles in 3 years and is still running as well as the day it left the factory :) the 1.2 16v engine was built to a budget too, so i would say the 2.0 16v F4R lump will be more reliable but having all that power asks for people to...

my mum had ordered her 1.2 16v extreme 4 from local renault dealer but had to wait about a month and a half because it was a new special edition blue colour or some crap like that, so they phoned us to tell us it was coming in that week, we went to pick it up and there was a nice new silver...

how much more mean looking is the 172 over the dynamique when you see them parked beside each other, im not a fan of putting 172 bumpers and wings on a 1.2 but that picture does actually make me consider it for my car!

that front bumper that the big yin posted is one of only 2 front bumpers ive seen that i would consider puting on my car if someone was going to supply and fit them for free. the other is one with extreme on the front grill, it looked ok too. theres a dark blue clio going about here with that...

i would seriously consider it but at 17 im never going to be able to insure it or even handle it to be honest lol plus mum would moan at me for puting another car on the drive lol
