I'm in exactly the same boat. They aren't really noticeable unless you look from a certain angle. Theres about 3 little dents. Not sure if theres a dent removal near me :(
6k maybe? I don't think the likes of the maxogen or exhaust will add any value, so if you have the original parts I would put those back on and sell the maxogen and exhaust seperatley!!
I think black goes with pretty much any colour. As long as you stick to that colour coding with other mods like painted door badges etc. Yellow and black do go very well though!!
I've also already got it lowered on eibach pros 25mm at the back at 15 at the front :)
Everyone raves about coilovers. Do they make a massive difference to the handling and ride quality of the car?
If you had £1000 to spend on a pretty much standard ph2 172, what would u do. I've already got a carbon splitter and BMC CDA.
Changed my mind about getting a 182 cup, just going to put a bit of money into making mine better.
Tempted by white turinis and a stealth exhaust
I've had 2 clios, both been as good as you'd expect so far (touch wood). I would get another one but onwards an upwards, so a 182 or ph2 V6...not a fan on the 197 really
Thats good andy. I don't really want to change my insurer until I'm due to re new my policy (december), cos you end up losing money. I paid for the year you see!!
Haha they wont give me that. I would guess they will offer around 6k, cos no doubt they will try to re-sell it 7k. I don't wanna part with more that 1200
Turbo then? Bet thats well slow :S I wanted a 182 to start with I just didnt wait til the right one came along. Think I will look into how much they will give me for mine to see if it's worth while.
Was it a good move mate, going from 172 to 182. It's prob gonna cost me 1200 plus mine in part ex, but I need new alloys and was planning on getting a new exhaust and remap too, so that would have costed me about 1200 anyways
I was thinkin about that Chris, but I can get a good price for mine cos its in mint condition with very low mileage for its age. I really fancy gettin the 182 cup and gettin a decent miltek exhaust and remap. I like my flame red but it looks the nads in the garage forecourt.
Plus I could do...
Nice one. Was hoping it wouldn't be like my old 1.2 ph1 RN interior, which was horrible. Not as nice as the half leathers in my 172, if I get I think Recaros are a must have!!
Found a 182 Cup that I might be part exing my ph2 172 for. Just wondering what the interior is like? I drove past the garage before, but the gate was closed so only saw the exterior. It's racing blue (they have it listed as powder blue lol). Has anyone got pics?
I got an insurance quote from my current insurer for 500 more than my 172. what the?? They are the same insurance group and a similar age. Thats ridiculous
Mine didn't come with 172 alloys :( bought it with some sh1tty, curbed 100+ alloys. they distroy the looks of the car as they are in bad condition. I like the 182 ones, not keen on std 172 alloys.
Will a simple remap on a 172 alter the rev limiter. Mine seems to red line fairly early, at about 6500/6750 rpm. I've heard people mention red lining at 7800 rpm.
