tipex?

Heard it all now your buying a beater and running a 172 at the weekends, the point being?

Good you agree with me then.

Not taking into account gearing, which plays a big part in a cars acceleration.

Just maths? What are you on about? Letstorque does not take into account gearing/traction etc

The 182 lost by 2 tenths of a second not 2 seconds like the VXR. 2 seconds is a big gap on a wee track like that.

Haha letstorque what a load of tripe, stop torquing b****cks... Fact is my Clio Cup with 181 hp (tested at dastek and star) did a 14.1@101 and would beat a chipped VXR up the 1/4 mile. I would put some serious money on my old Cup beating a chipped VXR with me driving.

My Clio Cup used to 14.1 secs to 101 with 181 hp. I've been looking about on the VXR forum and there is no way a chipped 220-230 hp one will do 14.1@101 1/4 mile.

Is there any point. No. Buy a proper car. Yes

Better security and safer, next question.

Been in my pals chipped one and wasn't impressed at all, by the performance or looks. My old Clio Cup with breathing mods would have went passed a chipped one with ease.

'they're fast'

What happenend?

Looks toss with the fogs painted.

You're buying a cheap run about as a second car to a chuffing 197 lol, heard it all now!

Use the bloody search.

I'm not interested in owning a 1 year old 182 never mind a 10 year old one, they will be falling to bits, even the low mile ones.

Yeah because that extra 10p a L would have been a real sickner. . .

Why does it matter if it has Renault Service History? I took my Cup to Renault once for a service and learned my lesson.

Trust me the 172/182 engine is nothing like a VTEC.

WTF lol

Don't bother with a 172 then, get a Civic VTiS, Jordan, Integra or a CTR...

Commiserations.

Is that a standard colour?

LMAO a 106 GTi with a true 160 hp would rip a standard 182 a new one...

They are brilliant cars to drive but a POS to own.

I've posted this many times before, my bro (CTR) and I were out for a blast and were joined by a 180 (stopped after and found out we knew the guy) and there really was feck all in it between the CTR/Cup/180.

Did you fail English at school by any chance? Read what I said again.

A friend of a friend was just killed by someone doing 100 mph on a back road, im sure that will be a lot of comfort to his family... See what im getting at, 110 mph on a back road is madness.
