1st time 182 owner :)

[Plan303]

Hi all,

I've been lurking for a few weeks whilst I was reading up 182s and decided to dive in now I've purchased one.

My last car was a civic 2.2cdti diesel, but I always fancied a 182 when I was a teenager and decided to test drive one after my civic was written off. After hitting 5500rpm on a country lane and almost messing my pants I knew I was gonna get one.

Needless to say I've used a tank of fuel in 48 hours and loved every noisy minute of it!

My Brother in law had a 172, he tipped me off about the 182, I've been intruiged ever since. I've already run some insurance quotes off on a couple of plates off autotrader, its great being post 25! barely touches my premium.

Mine added 141 quid into my policy (which has 11 months left), was expecting higher!

I have already decided im getting one

Going to cost me £900 to insure a 182, being 19 with 1 years NCB which considering is 50% cheaper than my first year im very pleased with..

Thats not too bad Joe, considering your age etc.

I'm quite pleasantly surprised at how cheap it is being 19 with 1 years ncb!

Currently driving a 1.6 Mini Cooper, and that cost me just under 2k to insure at 18, was going to cost me £750 to renew it.. might aswell get the 182
