October's EVO Magazine has an article on £4000 performance cars; Subaru Impreza WRX v Alfa 147 GTA v MR2 v Clio 182 Whilst not a true group test looking for a winner, the Clio 182 was chosen as the one car out of the above they'd like to own / drive on a day to day basis.

My 182 Cup had Recaro Trendlines fitted and I've just fitted 182 leather / alcantara. Cups do not come with side / seat airbags fitted. My car has the wiring it came with including the standard blocks, but does not have any resistors, yet I get no airbag warning lights. So my question is, do...

My son has fallen on hard times, so to help him out (as he's lost his car) I'm giving him my RB 182 Cup. The only problem is he has a bit of a checkered driving history and I need to remove current engine map and put it back to standard. I'm guessing I need to buy and RSTuner module as this is...

I've got a 182 Cup with 57,000 miles on it. I've recently suffered a snapped spring so I'm replacing all four springs as a set of Cooksports are only £130 and one front Renault was £90. My shocks have no leaks and appear to damp perfectly still. However, whilst it's all stripped to fit the...

Today about 2pm. Really nice RB, are your stripes genuine Renault? They looked slightly wider than usual, but looked really good.

I've just had a Cup spring snap on my 182 Cup and looking at changing the whole set. I definitely want to keep the OEM shocks and don't care about aesthetics ie lowering, but considering Cooksport springs only if they are an improvement on OEM Cup springs for road use. I don't want an overly...

Saw this in London this week, nice!

Anyone else had problems with Tapatalk's Gallery on the iPad recently? Mine hasn't refreshed for 6 days and no rebooting of the app seems to fix this.

I removed the spacers on my driver's seat to lower it recently. The spacers by the door were deeper than the spacers closest to the centre of the car. This now means my seat lists slightly and is now lower on the door side than the side near the centre of the car. You can't notice it when...

I've bought a FF rear bench for my cup and it arrived split for postage. Am I right in thinking that the two hinges (see photo) at the bottom of each part if the seat upright overlap one another and then bolt together? Thanks John

Anyone know this car? http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Renault-Clio-197-Cup-White-Recoro-intreior-/300830704201 Previous Cat D with gearbox issues, but very cheap.

The cold weather seems to have played havoc with my heater control panel. This appears to have literally just occurred over the last few nights with temps of -9

Anyone ever seen or built a ph2 with a ph1 front end?

My 182 runs a cat back RS192 system and a super unleaded map with the standard airbox and everything else standard. Will a silicone inlet hose make any difference at all to the car (apart from nicer looking)? I'm guessing the standard hose with all its ribs could cause vortexes and disrupt the...

I'm in the process of replacing my rear discs and pads. One disc came away perfectly leave the stub axle ready to accept the new disc/bearing. However, the other disc came away leaving the inner bearing race still affixed to the stub axle. Luckily it has a nice lip on it to grip, I've tried...

I downloaded iOS6 last night on my iPhone 4. Everything seemed great until I left the wi-fi comfort of my house and noticed I'd lost 3G and could not access and form of data service. Phone still works to make/receive calls. Phone still sends and receives texts. Phone still shows 3G and E logo...

Is this normal? Just tonight my wipers kept going to intermittent when stationary even when set to speed 1? I've got a 182 Cup with a variable intermittent stalk fitted. The weird thing is, I've had this stalk fitted for a year and never noticed this before.

Craigs Roundabout - 3.30pm (ish) White wheels and a lot of induction noise! Very nice

Does anyone else find the gear lever on the 1*2 a bit too far away to be in a perfectly comfortable position? I have my seat quite close to the wheel and still find it's just a bit of a stretch and doesn't fall nicely to hand. Is it possible to buy a lever with a bend in it to move it back...

I'm looking at getting a set of genuine roof bars to carry my bike as the 182s obviously can't carry a rear rack and I'm sick of stripping the bike everything to fit in the back. My only concern is, will the feet wreck my roof? I plan to use helitape where the feet fit, but still concerned it...

Nice low mileage early Ph1 with aluminium bonnet for sale. Tempted to sell my 182, I love the ph1 http://www.volkswizard.co.uk/

Has anyone got a photo of their 1*2 with a Parrot Asteroid fitted please. I much prefer the OEM look, but have tried a Parrot 3000 Evolution and a Connects2 lead together, but I get interference when my phone is on, so want an integrated system. Any photos or experiences would be great thanks

Treated myself to a used Cabasse head unit, but having some issues, probably me and not the unit! The unit plays straight away once plugged in for about 3 minutes before asking for the code. During this time it will play the radio or a CD but also produce a high pitched beep every 10 seconds or...

I've currently got an RS192 system fitted to my 182 with the centre section replaced by a straight through section. Being in my mid 40s I find it a bit loud and resonant cruising at 60-70 mph. I've still got the original centre section that was given to me when I bought the car and am...

Anyone ever fitted new ones to their discs? Just bought new discs without ABS rings and wondering if the £9.99 items on eBay will fit? Cheers

Is it worthwhile upgrading a non Cabasse head unit in the 182 Cup to a Cabasse unit from a FF please? Will I notice any difference? Thanks John

What wheels did you have on? The looked too small for 16s

The best mod yet to my 182 Cup! £10 well spent. No more constant flicking the wiper stalk in light rain.

Does anyone know how to remove the roof trims please that run from the B pillar to the C pillar? I've pushed and pulled and they only slide about 1/4 inch towards the rear before standing fast and then won't slide anymore or lift off. Thanks

Nice car, what exhaust induction system do you have? It sounded great!
