Got my 182 today!!

DebV6 · Oct 25, 2005

At last, after 3 months of waiting, i've finally got it!! And it looks stunning, its the first time i've seen one properly in that colour and it looks gorgeous! Had a slight little hitch earler when i tried to use my headlamp washers and the passenger side wiper died, typical Renault! But luckily my boyfrield was there and he just tightened them up, it appears to be ok now! Other than that, i love it already! Just need to fit my headunit now! I would post some pics, but i'm sure you have all seen pics of a Racing Blue 182 before!

Racing Blue is a lovely colour; best colour on the 182s!

dazraffan · Oct 25, 2005

racing blue cars are faster than the rest too !

maddog · Oct 25, 2005

Congrats on the great choice of car.

I too had the same issue with the wipers when I got my 182! A simply tighten of the bolts cures it though so don't worry!

Enjoy the new motor!

I'm jealous too but mine's coming tomorrow, can't let myself get excited yet, after spending half the day sorting out the number plate with the insurance company after they gave me the wrong one i'm sure it won't actually turn up

polarbert · Oct 25, 2005

^^^ what one you getting?

ive had mine 6 days now and its absolutely amazing

sometimes i worry about the cost, but whenever i see it all the worry goes away

MrAtego · Oct 25, 2005

Itsa a proven fact, racing blue 182's are faster on track as well, honest

Haha, yep that is always a worry, but im sure it's going to be worth it! I've out in it all day, already done 110 miles!

polarbert · Oct 26, 2005

i think i'd better slow down, done over 500 and only had it 6 days!

Black/gold cupped 182, 7 hours to go, had better get some sleep really!

Congrats on the new motor! Best colour choice too of course..I'm glad I went for Racing Blue.

You can't beat that 'new car' feeling

raceing blue with stripes are faster

Noooo the stripes create drag and weigh the car down

Andi-B · Oct 26, 2005

When I picked up mine I honestly thought they'd given me the wrong colour car!! lol

I was expecting the deep blue instead of the racing blue! pmsl ....
I'm glad now it is racing blue... it takes some getting used to but boy its a damn good colour!!

Cool ordering the wrong colour car,i did the same when ordering my Leon Cupra.Just the fact they'd changed from metallic to base colour.

ive got the racing blue and i thought exactly the same when i picked mine up as it looks so different on photographs to how it looks in the flesh - awsome colour tho

Funkyjahooner · Oct 26, 2005

Boz · Oct 26, 2005

Wish i'd gone for the racing blue, great colour

Dave S2K · Oct 26, 2005

Superb, that colour looks excellent when clean and well waxed.

Aberclio182 · Oct 27, 2005

Deb how you find the difference between this and your saxo then? nice colour, have fun.

wozzaa · Oct 27, 2005

Me sooo jealous gimme your car! NOW! I command thee!

Im a wee bit drunk so ignore me :/

but on the serious note nice car lovely colour hope your happy with it. And i am really jealous

GFK · Oct 27, 2005

Nice one, looks great. Pick mine up tomorrow, blood orange with stripes limited edition. Went and saw it in the shop last week, it had a sold sign hanging inside, made me feel proud.

DebV6 · Oct 27, 2005

Aberclio182, I am absolutely loving it, cant stop driving it!! I can definitely feel the difference in power from the saxo, it just seems to want to be driven fast all the time, where i think the saxo needed pushing that little bit more to get there! Dont suppose i will feel the full potential of it til it has a few more miles on it, but the miles are building up very quickly! And the handling on it is amazing!

rcp · Oct 28, 2005

That looks really good. Nice pics!

DebV6 · Oct 28, 2005

Thank you!

Got my 182 today!!
