Has anybody owned or driven both , how does the handling compare ? Is the Trophys suspension really that much better than the 182 cup suspension ?
MrBillyUK !
24 Meg eh ! I suspect that the you wouldn't ever see anything close to 24 meg ! You would have to be literally living on the doorstep of the exchange . The further away from the exchange you are the lower the connection speed due to voltage drop . Would be nice tho . Wouldn't mind 100 meg like...
I can't believe all the problems people are having with their brakes on 182's . My mk2 172 is still on its original fluid , second set of pads and discs at 48,000 miles . I've never been keen on abs anyway , its got me into more trouble than its got me out of . Only problem i had was 2 months...
Trimlines the company to call 0870 1620625 . They are franchised based company and really only do trade stuff ,all the dealerships use em to repair interiors . Cost me £40 to fix a cigarette burn and recolour the leather on the bolster .
MrBillyUK !
Good point !
I just assumed that she had bought it from a garage . If it was a private sale you don't really have a leg to stand on , sold as seen . If it was from a garage i would be right back there to get them to sort out the problem . When i pay good money for something i expect the goods...

I'm guessin that your pc being 1 1/2 - 2 yrs old will have ddr memory , probably pc2700 or pc3200 . You dont have to fit memory in pairs , you could have just one slot filled . Depending on your budget , i'd just get another stick of 512mb and leave one slot free . Havin 1gb of memory you'll...
I always use Maxtor diamond Max hard drives . You can download a utilty from www.maxtor.com that formats and partitions your hard drive from a floppy disk in a couples of minutes , much better than doing it in dos .
Now don't quote me on this ( i may be wrong ) but you need to be running...
I agree with Mr Angry . Get it back to the garage asap . Tell them it was like that when you bought it .If they don't wanna know tell em its illegal to sell a car thats not road worthy when its stated as road worthy ! I bought a second hand Pug 306 , when i checked the spare wheel a couple of...

Never thought of that . I'll check out the full fat 182's also .But definetely must have cup suspension .And i've fallen in love with the inferno orange colour ,lol ;)
Thanks for the advice , much appreciated :)
MrBillyUK !
Cheers edde !
I'm just lookin for a newer car .Plus from what i read the cups suspension is alot better than the full fat 172, i've never really been that impressed with the handling round corners of the 172 compared to my old Pug 306 S16 .I would miss the xenons i think , not too bothered...
I'm looking at buying 182 cup . Can somebody tell me what are optional extras ?
Do they have the xenon self adjusting lights ?
Do they all come with the cup suspension as standard or was that an optional extra ?
Do they air con / climate control ?
Do they all have traction control ?
I've...
They're a bit of a b*astard to get off and if you do you'll probably snap it . Best way is just to undo the 4 torx screws and take off the engine cover . 2 mins of a job .
MrBillyUK !
Just seen this on the renaultsport website . Don't know if anybody else has seen it yet ?

MrBillyUK !
Don't know where you got yout info from on import tax ?? . I regularly get something from the US and i never pay import tax and the cost isalways over £100 and in a large box !
MrBillyUK !
Anything imported from the US or any other country is liable to import tax if it isn't labelled as a gift. $180 = £102 + p+p + import tax = ??? Why ??
Yozzasport £80 delivered ;)
MrBillyUK !
First time the guy from renault took me out in the 172 he told me you should drive it from new like your always gonna drive it , if you drive it like an oap its gonna always be tight and drive like that . Once its warmed up give it hell !
