Absolutely Love my 182

[DinoS]

Picked up my clio Thursday afternoon and I can't stop going out for a pointless drive. On the way home i will take the longest route round just to stay in the car longer.

Love it when it gets to the 5k rpm:lolup:. Think I'm gonna need a new set of tyres very soon though!!

Anyone live in Manchester?

haha, I live in manchester town centre and I've done 150 miles, my gym is only 1.5 miles away and uni is only 1 mile away. I've filled the car up with 97 unleaded (does it make any difference btw??) and its already half gone.

I've been looking on ebay for replacement parts to see how much it would be to fix something once its gone, like brakes, pads, exhaust etc.

Really easy to be caught speeding in one of these though. Engine is always begging to be worked!!

Just waiting to go pick up my gf about a mile away, think I might go via Chorlton :lolup:

Should've got one years ago. I did pick mine up for a bargain though

Haha yep They love to be thrashed. Only car I've had similar is a 205gti but obviously with more power grip and brakes.
