Hi all just though I would say hi and ask a few questions
I'm from Blackpool, and I am shortly going to be getting a Clio 182, had a small handful of vehicles over my 3 years of driving, started with a 1.4 fiesta mk6, then moved to an Astra sxi 1.6, then changed completely and got a Yamaha r6, which I had to sell due to needing a car and not being able to afford both! But couldn't let go of the fun factor of the r6 so now I'm here after tossing up between a Fiesta St and a Clio 182... Clio won btw
A few questions about the Clio though if I may, I'm looking at any year to be honest, from what I have seen £3000-£3800 for anything 60k miles or less is good am I right? Also, and I have searched but I have only come across a multitude of different answers, I will be upgrading my head unit, and will want to retain stalk controls, how many adapters will this require?

Thanks All

Here are some pics of my past whips loved my old fez though, spent way too much on it lol and I'm sure I'm going to get the mod bug on my Clio too

Thanks for looking

Hi mate. Nice bike, cool Fiesta, horrible Astra. Good choice between ST and 182 BTW. My mate had a ST and not really in the same league as a 1*2.

You can deffo get the headunit to work but may require 2 leads which are fairly dear. Stick with big brands, Alpine, Pioneer, Sony at al and you should be ok.

haha I agree about Astra, mistake on my behalf there! I was looking at a Pioneer HU so thanks for that, just as long as I know the option IS out there to eventually hook it all up, I test drove an ST after a 182 and really didnt feel like the ST was a "hot hatch" at all, felt just like my Astra to be honest
