Brokers are crap. I went through endsleigh once, when I had an X reg 206 1.4 lx, and wanted to get a 52 reg 1.6 civic, and it would have cost me an extra £2200 for the remainder of my policy which was about 7 months. When I asked why, they said as it's such a big jump in engine size. Course it...

Cheers Gareth? How much do they go for from Renault?

One last question, where can I get a cup spoiler? Take it I would have to get it sprayed flame red as they only come in silver and artic blue!

Cheers :D Pure laziness on my part!!!:rasp:

Just wondering if anyone has pics or links to threads of Big Iains 172 with the 182 anthracite wheels. I remember seeing it a bit ago and wanna convince the missus that they look quality on flame red!! Cheers!

Do Renault still sell the 182 wheels in anthracite? Or have they stopped making/selling them now? Really wanting some. I know Munchkin has some for sale but they are provisionally sold at the mo!

Got 47 mpg on the motorway in mine and 50 cruising at circa 45mph on A and B roads. If you drive like a monkey it will prob drop to about 24mpg

Looks good. Is it goin to be the same engine as the new Twingo? It would be cool if they brought out a turbo version of the mk3 clio sport.

This morning at around 7.15am. Going past the jnc for M55. I was in my flame red 172 Looking very nice, I actually didn't like these to start with but they are definitely growing on me!

I recently bought a 172 and I'm 19. Defo worth it! not sure about chosing between 182 and 172. Doubt you would notice the 10bhp to be honest, you would just need to shop round to see whether it's worth the extra money for the twin exhausts.

Yeah it did seem to be pretty crap. It sounded ok, but that was it. He couldn't keep up. Saw an mk4 R32 the other day, they are well nice. Didn't bother having a race though, he was expecting one as he ragged it off at the traffic lights.

Had a tussle with an MG TF last night. the guy driving looked like a right nonce, clearly loved himself. I was pulling away from it pretty nicely, just wondering what spec they are?

I agree with Neil, they look chav. Big exhausts hanging underneath the bumper never looks right on a small hatch back. It's not a jap saloon.

This is mine in dull weather, I think it looks good :rasp: http://s158.photobucket.com/albums/t106/ste_172/?action=view&current=clio019.jpg

Anyone got a pic of this grill on flame red?

That looks quality. Prob looks better on black than on my flame red anyway. nice though!!

DAMN YOU MIDDO!! Just found the ms design website, and it's 166quid inc. VAT. Postage will prob be about a tenner as well.

Jesus, thats steep for a grill. I don't particularly like the standard sport one I have now. That MS one looks the nuts, not really worth 180 though!!

Does anyone know where I could get hold of one of these MS Design grills for my ph2 172: http://k-tecracing.com/show_product.asp?id=263 Heard k-tec don't actually stock them anymore (even though they are still on the website)

To be honest I reckon he would have probably sold it on for about 6700. I was hoping for about 6 or maybe a little more for it. I felt like slapping him. I know they are out to make money, but I thought that was pretty shocking.

I went to view a 182 cup at a garage today and to see what they would give for my mint condition 2003 172 FF with 27k on the clock. The guy said he could give me a max of £5k due to it's colour cos most people want a car like mine in black or silver. What a nonce!! So I would have needed to part...

f**k sake, like the saxo would ever have a chance unless it had a tuned 2 litre turbo lump. I hate sh1t like that. It's like a 172 having a race with an RS4

I can't view it :( what happens?

I always think that, the font is too poncy, like comic sans or something. Needs to be rigid and straight lines!! I also reckon blue back lights look a lot better and sportier as well!!

good news mate. Liquid yellow is an awesome colour.

My mates cooper s does that. He's got a decent aftermarket exhaust, decat and upgraded manifold. I walked past it the other day and he revved it, I think he perforated my ear drums...

:( I want a turbo in mine. Would love to see the look on peoples faces in std imprezas etc when u have a little tussle and beat them. I know I would be gutted if it was me!

haha yours is quicker than a lot of cars cos 182's weigh about 1100k's and its got about 250bhp (about 230bhp per tonne). How much did cost for the conversion if you don't mind me asking? Was it £6k?
