Just finally sold my 182. Its a shame to see it go, only had it for a year. It was my third RS I have owned. No doubt I will be buying one in the future again.

selling my 182, front, back and clio badges are all sprayed graphite grey. would it be worth but them to standard chrome or leave them as it is. they look better as they are now but wondering if it will put buyers off.
Just bought some wheel bearings from my local auto factor for my 182.

I heard that 172 and 182 are different sizes but on that website there is no option for 172 or 182 just says 2.0 16V. Anyway I can find...

My car is stranded at work. went to start it up and it just wont fire up. the starter motor is turning over but nothing. There is petrol in there, on the 1st white line. so thinking its either the spark plugs or petrol pump. my car has done 77K miles on original plugs. how can I diagnose wether...
Sprayed my diamonds except the rear as i didnt have my socket set at home, what do you think? yellow couldve done with being a shade darker but that was the only yellow they had in halfords.
been playing with the idea of spraying diamonds on my wheels yellow on my arctic 182. wanna go 4 the blue and yellow theme instead of chrome or anthracite.
I got bored of the plain orange lights on my dash clocks so I thought I'd give it a freshening up. I decided to go for white numbers, red needle and blue LCD screen. Took a pic of the screen but will take another later when its dark.
Wasnt really a hard job, its more fiddly than anything but...
Fitted a V6 airbox earlier with ITG filter. used original elbow, no caf fitted yet until I get my samco elbow. When I start the car up the engine management light stays on, anyone know why its coming up?
Im in the process of spraying my silver 182 wheels in Ford Graphite grey. My car is arctic, not sure wether to leave the diamonds chrome or spray them arctic to match the car.
I'm going to do a DIY wheel respray on my 182. I got a spare from when i had my Cooper S, the wheel is 16" but not sure if it would? anyone know if it would fit? dont fancy pulling my shed apart to get to the wheel, jack the car up and find it wont fit.
Looking at getting a splitter but not sure to get a cup splitter or the matt finish carbon fibre from k-tec. How does the matt compare witht the gloss one for ease of chipping and scratching?
After owning a PH2 172 over 2 yrs ago and LY R26 I bought my mini and had it a yr now. But I missed having a renault sport and decided to get myself back in the renault scene. Picked up my Artic blue 182 eariler on. Cant wait to get it lowered and fit a cup splitter on.
Finally buying another renault sport car after my 172 and R26. I'm going to be looking at a 04 plate 182 in artic blue. 60K miles, full service apparently. its going for £5495. No marks on the body and wheels are in perfect condition. Anything to look out for? I'll have to check if the cambelt...

I owned a flame red 172 2 years ago and was hooked on renault sports cars. I had to sell it unfortunetly because I worked quite far away and was spending £80+ a week on fuel so bought a Golf GT TDI.
Finally got a better job and local so I treated myself to a brand new LY R26 which i wrote off...
