[Ben j]

about £4000 now i expect

 

[ken182]

longer wheel base stronger suspension mounts stiffer rear anti rollbar softer front rebound cruise control asc and slightly difrent seat colours

 

[JoelDee]

is the interior pretty much the same, can anyone get any pics up of them so we can compare

 

[Roamer]

Longer wheel base? and when did the make the wheelbase longer exactly?

 

[Griff]

lmao longer wheel base.. Is that with the mpv pack?

 

[edde]

The wheelbase is longer as the front bits are diferent.

The leather is supposed to be sligtly different.

10hp (from different exhaust, sporty cat, manifold changes and remap).

Different suspension setup the cup having even more changes.

 

[Viv172]

oh and the 182 has silver seat belts!!

 

[Roamer]

Edde, are you actually telling me that they have moved the front wheels further forward ?????? or are you actually talking about the track width?

Yep the front wheels are further forward by 7mm.

I think that Im right anyway the old Clios 172 had a distance from the center of the front and rear wheel of 2472mm the 182 is 2485mm.

The wheelbase is longer because of a revised castor angle on the front suspension/steering..

so there. lol

 

[ken182]

oh and about the seats... the 182 has white under the perfarations in the centre of the seats. 172s are just grey apparently

 

[JoelDee]

silver seatbelts mmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm *drools*

Thats not true though, autocar got the 182 to 60 0.8 secs faster than the 172 and nearly a second faster to a 100, also the 182 does 30-70 through the gears in over a second faster than the 172

I think alot of people on here who have swapped a 172 for a 182 say that the 182 is slightly faster than the 172 and there nothing in it between a 182 and a cup



I prefer the 182 looks as well, and not sure whats funny about that comment, I think the twin exhaust makes it look a lot sportier and also the alloys look better, my opinion of course
