Dealer wouldnt budge on the price of my full fat 182 ... until I handed over a personalised quote for a uk car @ £12.4k with both cup packs and metalic. He scurried off and after Id drunk a couple of cups of coffee he came back and said they could match it so I signed there and then. My...

look at the date of registration, if it was about the time you got the car then its not pre reg. If its a bit earlier than you got the car and you are the second keeper then yes its a pre reg D

Track - 4 wheel laser alignment

A Trophy suspension kit for the standard 182 would be great ... Id like to know if its just a spring and damper swap. Anyhow, after 11000 miles in my full fat I needed new tires and a track, felt like a different car after, so much more composed and planted. Its also lost a lot of the...

If its sat running then there is no air blowing through the radiator so it gets hot and the fan kicks in. When your driving there is constantly air forced through the radiator so the fan isnt needed.

Yes DL and Priv are the same company but aimed at different segments of the market so different rules discounts vs sectors. Guess it depends who you speak to on the day, still say you should declare it rather than assume. D

My Snooper S6-R doesnt detect red light cameras so I doubt the map is different for the S4-R Direct line told me it wasnt standard and charged me extra. Switched to Privledge and they say it wasnt standard but didnt charge me extra. (listed on policy though) My advice, always tell the...

Tourists indeed, I was definately going the right way as that was a fair old queue.

Where abouts were you lurking? I saw so many Clios over the weekend I lost track of them all. Spend a while in the log restaurant in Ambleside, quite a few RS models about including a blue 225 D

Hey maybe I was spotted at last. I left Ambleside approx 1300hrs heading for the M6 so would have passed though Windmere around then. MW 04 Z** Have the small CS sticker in the bottom right of the rear window. :)

Had mine off the other day, From memory, the front oval connects to the inner wing cold air feed. The other one conects with a 90deg bend to a round flange that clips in loosely next the airbox and takes a feed from behind the nearside headlamp unit.

Macclesfield, not as close as I thought but only 30 mins away

Must be near me somewhere .... my reg is MW04 *** D

The 1.2 16v is low geared so it feels nippy at low speeds.

Coins arent magnetic !

Dash takes about 10 mins to take the top off, few screws then you should be able to localise it. D

Its noisy, the exhaust blows in three places (welds on middle box and downpipe to cat), the windscreen cracked when I bounced through a dip in the road, alarm doesnt always arm, various dash lights come on when they feel like it and renault are about as much use as a showercap to a duck. But...

Has anyone connected the standard head unit to the VDO system? does it display the radio presets, cd track etc?

lol ... how many replies at once ?

Its well hidden, From the front of the car look at the back left of the engine cover. Its set right by the brake pedal and about 6 inches lower than the top of the engine cover which youll have to remove to top up the level. D

Just checked, the Top Gear car is..... HS 53 LHK D [Edited by Decto on 14 March 2005 at 1:39pm] Updated to say, Clarkson had is big denim covered ass in HS53LHK The stig drove HS53LKU Only just realised they are different! D

Thats what I call stripped out... 0-60 ??

Mine rattles less since I had the top of the dash off to fit wires for the snooper. A little Mr Sheen on all those edges goes a long way

Cheers, I dont think of them as troubles, all part of the character :cool:

Ive had my 182 since June, have covered nearly 8000 miles its finally starting to show a few of the well known faults. 1) Exhaust now blowing badly, happened the other day at about 5k in third just pulling nicely and the note suddenly changed. 2) Occasional 3 bleeps on arming the alarm. Done...

Clio Dynamique-S = 182 CUP ........runs away to hide :devilish:

The S6 GPS unit is a nightmare in the car. I routed mine into the engine bay and fitted it under the plastic in front of the drivers windscreen area. Sits on top of the wiper motor nicely and gets a great signal. The cable can be routed through with the alarm cable under the dash on the...

Drove in a couple of inches of snow today, no issues, ESP want at all invasive so didnt consider turning it off. Just need to be gentle and the tyres are always a little hard till Ive covered a mile or so. Thing with the 182 is that the throttle is fly by wire so the traction control can reign...

From my local dealer ... Lookers in Macclesfield, Cheshire. Salesman Mark something or other. I took in a quote from Provecta for a UK car with cup packs and metalic and said thats what Ill pay... up to you. Finance with cahoot (7k) who were doing a great deal at the time.

The dealer will need your insurance docs to tax the car. Cover note should be fine, but youll need to drop them in early so they have time to tax it.
