[littleone]

[dk]

black gold, then artic blue, titanium, racing blue, liquid yellow, paddock green

 

[Lee]

Where did you get that order from Dave?

 

[dk]

jeremy, just wanted to know if my colour was still rare, and it is at the moment, but i have a feeling that the more there are around, the more people will order it after having seen one!

 

[tinhead]

Only seen three on the road so far and they were all Artic Blue.

Guess what colour mine is....

 

[Lee]

Im thought the Arctic was going to be in the lead. Black must have snook in thre. But as you say, Racing is coming up fast around here, more people seem to be ordering it now.

Same as mine, but it doesnt bother me. I picked it because its the colour I wanted. Who cares what colour everyone else has.

good evening all, mines silver, i have only seen 1 artic blue and 1 black thats all so far, has anyone got a silver one

 

[Lee]

So far on the road Ive seen 1 silver and 1 yellow.

At meets Ive seen 1 black, 2 Arctic Blue, and 1 racing blue.

 

[dk]

on the road i have seen 1 artic blue and 1 racing blue but i see a lot that could be 182s going the other way on the motorway, could be black 182s or 172s, cant tell as the barrier hides the wheels and at speed when you look in your rear view mirror to spot the exhausts you have no chance, same for the artic blue really, could be a 172 cup and the titanium.

I really want to see a pick of the paddock green, it is intriguing me now!

just like with the 172 all the renaultsport colours are good, they havent really come up with a baden.

Do you have any pictures Jeremy?

Just out of curiosity, Blue is blue and green is green, how can green suddenely be called blue? Or is this like brown being the new black?

reg vardys in donny had a black/gold 182,cup options, in and it looked well nice colour!

 

[geoff_clio182]

I have seen 2 Arctic Blue 182s so far and I pick my yellow one up on Sat morning at 10am!

 

[coope182]

Ive only seen two 182s

One was silver the one I test drove

One was racing blue without the stripes in a pub carpark

I have ordered an arctic blue one, because I liked the colour of the Megane they had in the showroom when I went to order. Didnt fancy silver as everyone has 172s in that colour!!!!! And Black is a right b**ch to keep clean, not that the blue wont be.

 

[Pootle]

apparently petrol blue is stunning. im waiting to see this before i make my mind up totally about the orange!!

 

[Lee]

Is this petrol blue or silver in a funny light?

wow, that certainly is a big change, I guess the name wasnt selling the colour? But as Lee says, how can green now be blue?

 

[Jeremy Townsend]

Its a flip colour. On the sample it looked more green, but in real life it is more blue and only green under certain light, hence the name change. Were getting some pictures done of the car here for the renaultsport site

 

[Lee]

Sounds nice. But expensive.

Agree.. Why get a colour you dont like as much, just because its rare?

Madness..

Oh, and Arctic is the best colour anyway methinks! HEH!

yes but Jeremy knows what he is talking about as he is the man in the know, we can only listen to what he says and learn from him, he is Yoda!

No seriously, Jeremy will be right, trust me!

 

[J182]
