182 VS FRP

I still don't know. If I can get a lift from Heathrow to reading then it'll save us driving down!
 
A bus runs from Heathrow to Reading train stn Gally, i used to get it all the time when i was in training down south!

Google it!
 
Cheers Gaz, I'll go have a look, the guy said he'd get me from the train station no problem.
 
Cheers for that Gaz! Not cheap £14 but Heathrow to Reading is a fair run so worth it.

Guessing it takes you to Reading train station?
 
Dan I sent you a text mate, going to fly down on thursday all being well!

7 hour drive is not something I'd ask many people to do, then 7 hours back!
Cheers again for the offer fella. X

Looking forward to getting my hands on it!
 
my mate used to have one of these a few years agoe, was rr at 170bhp (the company rollers were known to read a touch high) one of the best gearshifts of any car i have ever driven.
 
Nice to know mate, any reason why he got rid? Few years ago?
 
Not a problem gally mate, i canny get enough of the 182 at the moment, took it a drive today, they really are fantastic bloody cars!
 
Get an ITR (which is more likely to be the worlds best handling FWD) :)

Oh... That'll teach me to read the first post only :o

You have to take me out in it, for all the cars I get to drive at my work i've never even worked on a 182, so never had a road test in one!

Lap times of Pembrey:

DC2 Integra Type R - 1 min 15.48
PH1 Clio 172 - 1 min 15.40
Racing Puma - 1 min 13.75...

Not bad for such an underpowered car, i'm not a straight line hero. My knees tremble above 40mph :o Corners are where the fun is for me, especially where I stay.
 
Sorry Joe, i'll miss your face matey! I'll try and get back down sometime! How far are you from duxford!????

Plane tickets are booked! 7.05 thursday morning to Heathrow!

Owner has her looking good! :)
 
7.05 my flight tomorrow morning mate. Heathrow then bus to Reading.
 
I would've gone for the FRP myself mate!

Obviously not the same outright pace (not that the 182's a machine) but better looks, rarer, more road presence and supposedly immence handling!

I dont see the issue with the interior either myself.
