If you were 10 mins earlier you'd perhaps catch me going over the junction at the top of Leadwell Lane -past the pub on the corner that I've driven past every week day for the past 13 months and still don't know the name! Re your 197 stealth fighter - the missus moans about the lack of room in...

Wasn't me but if you spend a bit of time in Rothwell I'm sure I've seen a black 197 steaming about a couple of times in Rothwell. I've also seen a blue 197 parked up in Leadwell lane too!

Oh I so wish my wheels wer anthracite now rather than silver! Great pics by the way.

I agree about the chat and atmosphere here! I find myself strangely enticed by future plans of suspension and engine tweaks. Assuming I don't get the shaft on Wednesday, I think I'll be spending more time here!

Yeah I'm almost scared to go now in case they turn round and say they've made a mistake. I must admit, I did confirm the price 3 times over the phone to be sure. They have both my reg and VIN number so they know it's a 182 with climate etc. This is my my first Renault and I must admit it's a...

Well I checked and it's the full kit - I guess their labour must be dirt cheap! I hope it goes OK, this was the only dealer I called that really knew anything about the 182/172s. Aparrantly the Renault service network still shows the aux belts required at only 72K or 5 years, but they've had a...

I'm getting mine done on Wednesday for £150 inc VAt and labour from a Renault dealer - I'll name them if they're any good.. Local Renault specialist wanted almost £250. I know I could get cheaper, but it's overdue as I'm at 38K now (previous owner had it serviced at 36k and Renault told him it...

My imported 182 has no alarm, AA weren't in the slightest bit bothered, just said as long is it's a European import (which it is) then as long as it's got all standard fit security then no worries.

OK thanks I'll see what price I can get it at and go from there.

Hmm I hear conflicting info on the aux belt change. The dealer told me that at 36K it's optional only, hence mine didn't have it done (I just bought my last week at 38K.) Plus I also saw a couple of posts here that say it's a visual inspection at 36K, and yet others saying it's a must have...

Nah I'd have noticed that. I went from my 140 PS diesel civic to testing 172s and it felt just a litle bit quicker than the 172s I was checking out. Either way it's coming off. Thanks for the help anyway guys.

Here you go - apologies for the crappy pic, I'll do some decent ones when I pick it up. You can just see it in the pic.

Hi all, picking up my 54 plate 182 FF this weekend, and I did notice it had on the tailgate three badges on the left side: 1) Renault 2) Sport 3) 200 Now I know Renault and Sport are standard, but what the hell is this 200 all about? Never seen it anywhere else and otherwise the car is...
