^^^Not nessarilly mate, i was with Elephant since 19 when i got my 16v.........Transfered the 182 insurance over when i turned 21 for the last 2 months of my policy but when i come up for renewal they were much dearer than Admiral and would not match it at all where as it was the otherway round...
^^^Exactly........Even if theres point of a point of a point of point second in it, if were talking real world (which some on this site obviously dont) theres gonna be sod all in it, fact!!!
That go's for cups, ph-quicks :rolls:, mk2 172's, 182's.......Iv never beaten during any test runs nor...
Lol, so have i mate and theres no difference.......But then for you it may be different as yours isnt exactly in standard form is it now!?!
If i had my 182 stripped to the bone i pretty sure id have no problems either.
Cliosport myth most deffinatly!!!
I would'nt bother, i think these cars are good enough as they are really and you would be furthering the possibility of it breaking all the time!!!
Not to mention the time/effort/hassle/money in doing it!!!
As said if i wanted a real fast car, id just buy a real fast car.
Is'nt the interior much nicer on the mk2's aswell??
Keep hearing people say the dash is utter shite on here for a start in the mk1's...........I can only rememeber the seats from when i had a ganders at one ages ago, ummmm the blues not really for me!!!
......As they are virtually the same engine.
Iv been looking for 182 one but they are rarely available so just wondering if i can widen my prospects of being able to find one.
Cheers

I had the 1.8 16v and then coverted it to the 2.0 16v engine and tbh i didnt fill either up anymore than i do my 182 now really and probably drove them engines harder.
I could tell what mpg i was getting on them but to give you an idea im averaging 34.6 in the 182.
My puppies getting 34.6 at the moment.
Maybe something due to me only filling with shell optimax/v-power now though.
Always filled with super of some kind whether it be Tesco's own 99 or Ultima but i used to get around 32 whilst using these fuels.
Lmao you obviously havnt seen a liquid in the flesh then!?
Racings my second fav but inferno :sick: really gone off that, plus who really wants the smae colour as every other tom and dick any way!!! ;)
Well just buy it over the net then?? :S
Iv never had a problem with them apart from when i tried to get the smae quoite without giving the reference, thats the only time they tried charging me extra due to net discounts!!!
Is that quote on a mk1 or 2 mate??? Think i was being quoted...
I had the force 10's on my old hybrid mate.......I went on what they looke like in a catologue and in the wheel shop (17" version). In all honesty i fuckin despised em, not worth a look if smaller than 17's imo!!!
I like 17's but would never put them on another car of mine due to the performance it throws away!!!
Been there done that but depends what you want out of your car!!!
I had a mk6 fiesta as a courtesy car a few years back when they'd just come out......Still tried my best not to be seen it though!!!
By the way, aint you a former Coventry/Southampton star?? ;)
