Laurence does come on here much anymore but Im sure hell be sorry. Least youre ok though.
Were the F1s better?
Sometimes (not all but sometimes) a car feels better once its been repaired (if you dont get renault to...
hi peeps,
does anyone know what the power handling is on the standard 172 cup speakers? I know the h/u is 4x22w. I am hoping that they are the same speakers as the 172 and renault just put in a cheaper h/u.
I was thinking of replacing the h/u with an mp3 player which are all 4x40w +. Just...
yeah both airbags deployed. The ambulance guys thought my head had bounced off thye passenger side of the windscreen cuz it was smashed up. Thankfully it wasnt as i always wear seatbelt - it was the plastic cover to the airbag that hit the windscreen. Apparently they deploy at over 200mph, so...
^^ i do think myself lucky. After watching th top gear where they crashed the megane and did a bit on euro ncap ratings, Im also please i was ina clio. The only injury i had was a bllod blister from my wedding ring :-)
hi peeps,
last wednesday evening on way home some pleasent fellow decided to pull out behind a parked car (coming head on). I fortuantly found a gap in the row of paked cars to my left. However unfortunately didnt stop in time....
BANG!! 30mph in the back of a polo with towbar. Am ok...

it really does seem a pointless car. Id be getting the 182 with cup pack for sure out of the two.
^^ ditto. Although I had a good laugh at all the posts :-)
nice motor mate! I notice the open induction kit and the zorst. Any other mods on it and do you know what its pushing out (bhp)
id pick a ctr over a 182 or 172 anyday - only if money wasnt an issue. had many little pops against my mates ctr and from a stand still theres nothing in it. But when he reaches v-tec land it pulls ..... a lot.
It feels a lot better built, the seats are plush, the gear change is fantastic and...
just been reading renaults spec on the new 182 cup and it seems they may be under selling its performance...
They state now that the 182 is 7.1secs (same as 172std) 0-62 and afaik it was/should be 6.9 which was the same as the 172cup
Now the 182cup is specced at 6.9secs and Im sure it will...
Sorry to read about this mate. Its not nice at all - I know from experience (as we all probably do).
Just to let you know, i was on the front row for about 30 mins (on the far side by the bogs so not me) at the start of the day, then went in the first track session and returned to the back of...
i was unsure about the colour of my cup initially. i absolutely love it now especially when polished. Artic blue is v. similar so I think looks equally as good. Iain Cs looks great with the gordini stripes aswell!
I raced (a little) against a yellow punto gt at trax on sunday. He was quite quick round the corners, which i wasnt suprised about as I think most reasonably quick hot hatches will perform very similar tbh. I was suprised tough how easliy I pulled away from him oout of the corners into the...
lol 15 mins at the mo as only paid for 1 session, will get another if there are any spare places
had to pay for whole day though - so covered all while im there

just paid £30 to insure my car for TRAX as Im doing track time and sprint. Not sure what the company is - its the phone number quoted by TRAX themselves.

so just to keep this interesting debarcle continue..how much of whats been written in this thread is true? JAF182 if neutrinos are so strong why not route them straight outside :-) ???
other than a hole for the air con to cool the glove box i cant see the blue thing doing much else?
nice one mate. got mine from reno wolves also for 10500, so u got a good deal there.
just a point for you to check... my steering wheel was turned slightly to the right even when going straight on an even road. i took it back to dealer and they sorted. apparently the tracking was slightly out...
so if they can pass through steel, how is my crappy plastic glove box gonna stop them from harming me?
also i still dont see how different colour paint makes a difference?
p.s. im not thick, just dont know a lot about this subject and am finding it actually quite interesting.
it does look like the blue plastic could slide across to reveal a hole, so may be the for the air con.
has anyone removed the panel at the back of the glove box? I think this maybe the only way to push it round into position. Just hope it doesnt rattle :-)
hi guys.
yesterday i noticed a blue plastic circular thing at the top of the glove box on the right. Havingno idea what it was I had a mess.... which i wish i hadnt because i ended up pushing it into the space behind the glove box. it had some fitment on the back of it aswell.
anyone know...
