i did it!!

[rsclio182]

after alot of thinking and posting up questions on here about the 197 and should i get 1... i did! i part exchanged my rb 182 and got the deal i was after, thanks to alot of people on here for helping me. storm_force and lee were a huge help. i love the car! oh and thanks to madhops for telling me how to get pics up!

 

[Revels]

Its been cloned, that old thing next to it has the same plate!

Looks good mate, just needs a drop!

 

[RS182Lancs]

looks lovely pal!

 

[rsclio182]

lol, thought it would be nice to get the new and old together

 

[davesport172]

very nice! did you go for the recaros??

 

[Alan]

You know have thee RS

Enjoy it mate..

 

[rsclio182]

no recaros (yet), it second hand, used to belong to storm_force on here so bought it how i saw it

 

[Jimbo76]

Looks nice and even better on the road when I saw it yesterday, is the spoiler a add on or as standard?

How much actual difference is there compared to your old 182... quickness / handling?

[Storm_Force]

Looks lovely (bit biast its my old car LOL) I found the standard seats great and very supportive.

I did notice earlier there is someone selling 197 recaro's on here.

 

[rsclio182]

the spoiler was already on it but think it was an extra. it feels quicker and nicer to drive, it handles the same but tbh not really gave it a good run yet

 

[DebV6]

Looks nice, good replacement

 

[Alexander]

cant help thinking the 182 looks so dated next to the 197, love them both tho! and i dont actually mind the cup spoiler!

 

[FiDoDiDo]

Looks very nice, think the spoiler and splitter suits it well and to think I hated the 197 when it first came out...how times change.

 

[rsclio182]

i thought the same about it looking dated but i was sad to see the rb go

 

[Pettsi]

Looks very nice, think the spoiler and splitter suits it well and to think I hated the 197 when it first came out...how times change.

Looks very nice!

Looks very nice!

+2 Think they look great now tho! Must agree the 182 dos look dated next to it

 

[madhops87]

Very nice Steve! Look foward to seeing it in the metal. Told you it was easy to put pics.

 

[Hazza]

Is that legal? Two cars with the same number plates?

New car looks well! Love it!

 

[B5 BDJ]

lower with spacers!!

very nice mate.

 

[rsclio182]

i would like to lower it but dont want to invailed the warrenty, and the plate is only registerd on the 197 so its ok

 

[Hazza]

I was only messing about the plates! lol

 

[Paul.]

smart.

still prefer 1*2s though:quiet:

 

[Emz_197]

What is the mileage on your 182 and whats the condition of it like?

 

[Beef-Mc]

Lowering it wont invalidate the warranty unless you crack a spring or the shocks start leaking!

 

[rsclio182]

nearly 38k, the condition was ok, not great.. quite alot of stone chips and tbh the car felt like it need a good going over. think they are trying to sell it for 8.5k. i will have to look in to the warrenty and if it would be effected by lowering it

 

[Fletcher]

Nice, not really a fan of the spolier though.

 

[Ads_172]

Very nice mate, that in Marsh Barton?

Am sure I saw you filling her up at the petrol station just by the VW garage yesterday...

 

[The Boosh!]

Nice car - love the cup spoiler aswell suits it well...

all thats left now is to get your forum name changed to "Rsclio197"

 

[rsclio182]

i was on marsh barton yesterday but didnt fill up,wish i had, i see alot of garages round here have no fuel! i have sent a name change request for that already lol

 

[Ads_172]

^Yeah, it's got quite bad today, didn't seem an issue yesterday. Still, got a third of a tank so should be fine for a few days.

Must've been another 197 in the garage, seems they're spreading!

 

[Marky_]

Looks so mean in this pic :evil:

 

[fuzzi]

awsum love the new splitter

 

[Cupster]

TBH I prefer the 182.

Like the splitter and colour though.

 

[paul]

[Tigger]

Almost twins lol, love them both!

 

[VIICarCare]
