I was only thinking it would be more due to the fact it's worth more? I would say to the insurance company its worth the same as my 172 but if I wrote it off they wouldn't give me much for it. Might ring the garage now and see what they say about part ex ing my 172 :) It would be good to get a...

I wanted a 182 for ages, but found a 172 so I got excited and just bought it. I really like the wheels exhaust etc on the 182, and I've found a 182 cup not far from me for £7700 at a garage. So I think I'm going to see if he will give me a good price for mine plus some cash. I was just wondering...

It was going the opposite way to st.annes mate, coming off near chorely area. It was an 05 plate.

First 255 I've ever seen, and I must say looks even better up close. Had a cheeky look when I overtook. You were taking the leyland/euxton exit off the M6 going southbound.

Does anyone know how to take the diamond renault badge off the front end of a 172? Do I just need to lever it off with a screw driver? Cheers

Apparently so. I'm in the same boat, but I just want the key, not bothered about the remote central locking bit. Went to timpsons and they reckon only Renault can cut one

Get an old mini and put a Hayabusa turbo engine in the back.

Check for what though? It's gettin progressively worse now. Like loud tapping noise when I'm driving slowly

Likin the black wheels. Saw some in Halfrauds today, forgot which make they are though. Thinkin about gettin some for my flame red to go with the black badges

The OZ look about 507% better

Anyone?

haha there were a few more birds. One of which took the picture. Not enough hot birds though.

Me at my mates hot tub party (I'm on the right) http://s158.photobucket.com/albums/t106/ste_172/?action=view&current=n502569567_40208_68491.jpg My car: http://s158.photobucket.com/albums/t106/ste_172/?action=view&current=clio005.jpg

If you sell it and want to sell the 182 wheels seperately I will have first dibs :)

I took my 172 to the garage on thursday to sort out a screeching noise, turned out I need new discs and pads. Now theres a clunking/knocking noise coming from what sounds like underneath the car when I'm driving. Does anyone know what this could be? Cheers

haha minus £400 :P so really you wuold need to give me £400 to make this deal work

I'll swap you your fairly average 182 for my amazing flame red 172 plus all the money in my bank account.

Get a ph1 172 for 5k and get throttle bodies for 3500. That would be veeerry rapid

You'd be looking at 10-11k for a mint 05/55 with low mileage. Go for a 182 with both cup packs for about 2k cheaper, and spend that 2000 on gettin new exhaust, decat, cams, inlets and remap to take it upto 205/210 bhp. Jobs a good'n, everyones happy.

I doubt you would be able to tell any difference on normal roads mate. A cup would maybe shave a couple of seconds of your track time if you took it on a track day.

I'll do you a favour and take it off your hands for 3k

Thats poo pants. Nice avatar by the way mate.

Maybe it hasn't been "broken in" yet. Did you buy it from a 84 year old granny who only used it to go and pick her pension up from the post office? And when u had this race, was it fully warmed up?

No, but I do need some new tyres. Had all my brake pads changes yesterday, as well as 2 front discs, but thats it.

The side ones look good cos they are quite subtle. Also, those wheels look sh1t hot

At high speeds (70mph +) my steering wheel has started to shake like a b*tch. Is there any way to sort this?

Sounds like she isn't using the full rev range. clio sports are best between 5k and 7k revs

I'm with this guy. Flame red looks the shizzle when cleaned and polished up. Even thought your not after a 172 lol.

Good lad. You can get a standard cup splitter (plastic) from renault or you can get a carbon splitter from k-tec which looks good. Get some pics up :)

Yeah I would defo have to save, I'm not minted, I just think I'm on an alright wage!! I imagine a ph2 172 with average mileage will be worth about 4.5k next summer, which means I would need about another 7 for a P1. Think I will just save up money, and decide what the money is to go on next year.
