Can never get rid of the Renault bug!!

[RhysThomass]

Just wanted to say hello again. I’m back in another Clio now my 3rd can’t rid of this Renault bug. Previously over a SG Clio 200 cup (which I wish I kept now) and A 172 Flamer.

Bought a 06 Reg Titanium Silver FF 182 this afternoon after 14 months of ownership of my Seat Leon Cupra 290. Clio needs a couple of bits but nothing I can’t do. Glad to be back to this forum once again always have been and always will. Be posting pics soon and maybe do a project thread been reading a few on here lately which made me come to my most recent purchase. Nice to be Back

FH53 GDJ was broken for parts as it was involved in a flood was sad to see it stripped😭

Just wondered if it might have been mine, I'm assuming you're in Wales!

Yeah very capable and lovely car. I had it on a incredibly good deal on lease at the time as these were revised with the GPF which put people off and in turn I think they were struggling to sell them. Dsg is lovely so easy. You can average 39mpg in Eco mode and then one button into Cupra and the car pops and bangs and comes alive. FWD is a handful it spins up a lot even with Continental tyres from factory. You can’t really launch it because wheels just spin like mad. But for standard car you can’t go wrong. Golf R parts on a Seat for half the monthlies on the lease haha😂

I need to own one someday.

Welcome back!

Only owned the car for a month and now it’s gone and don’t really regret it. The Bug is still there and really want another one but with house move soon I had to sell and with MOT due wouldn’t of passed unfortunately. If I ever do get one it purely be a Low mileage minter and Colour. Gutted about my last 182 that has gone to a breaker. I’ve been a paid member for a few years and always will!!

Is that the one that ended up listed as a breaker on the Clio Facebook groups? Had off-centre 3D plates if I remember right? What was wrong with it out of interest?

Yes it’s on Hot Hatch breakers who are local to me. Few things wrong with it which I was going to do but funds are tight with another house move. I suppose they will all end up in breakers or scrappy eventually.
