Im gonna enjoy having a rareish car...



  Mondeo STTDCI


did loadsa miles today on M4, M11, M25, A406...only saw ONE renaultsport motor, a black 172.

its excellent!
 


Had my 182 for 10 days now, flashed by another 172 coming the other way last week.

Only one seen in 500 miles now.

M25, A1M area.

You are right, enjoyable to see peoles reactions as they turn and gawp. Seen plenty of Coopers and CTRs.

I have seen a few 172s around here but have only seen one other 182..always get a wave and thumbs up from other ClioSport drivers.

Like you say, CTRs are growing on trees around here...they convene in a shopping centre car park some evenings..not sure if it is a CTR club or a load of mates with the same car but some of the drivers look 18...love to see what they pay for insurance :)
 


I see quite a few now.. especially 172s.

CTRs, there are LOADS.. heh. Definetly compared to 172/182s.
 
  300bhp MR2 Turbo


I see loads of them - more than I see 16vs and Williams.

Problem these days with new cars is finance - any one can get one, most people want a new car than a used one so theres loads of them.
 


also shows renault are doing something correct

i bought my car cos it is rarer, they made loads but not in my model and colour

as nice as a rare car is, wen u buy a mass producted car u hope there are lots in a way

Dont see many down here in Cornwall.

I did see a black 182 yesterday on the A30 heading towards Penzance.

Probably get more down here when more tourists come down, if the sun comes out!
 


There are loads in the south wales valleys, 4 on my estate alone (2 on my drive). On a night out in my town (Blackwood) I would expect to see at least 4 172s a couple or 182s and a handfull of CTRs. As well as the stis and evos there is also a nice MR2 with full 355 bodykit and an Rx-7 going around.

I guess its all down to wear you live.

We have a Renault garage in my town and you see loads of 182s (but not many V6s..lol)

Also there is a Suburu Garage here too so there are masses of wrxs and stis....all Blue with Gold wheels....the towns full of them, thats what put me off buying one.....didn;t want just another wrx.....lol

Before I got my 172 Id only seen a few 172s in the past couple of years - now that I own one I see loads. Always happens

Ive seen 172s in black and especially silver (sooooooo common ;)) but Ive yet to see one in flame red or monaco blue - except for mine. 182, Ive seen a couple now. And Cups are even more common than silver 172s where I am...
 


theres loads of 172s round barnsley and sheffield, i see loads knocking about (although i might be seeing the same few over and over again lol)
 
  E55, KitCar & '85 Quattro


r u joking? ther r quite a few round

ive seen about 6 different v6s in my life and thats quite alot.

dont think the lorry load of black and silver (10 of each) 172s counts towards the no. of 172/182/cups ive seen, but its still alot!
 
  TDI tyre shreader


I saw loads of 172/182s on the way to work this morning and carried on seeing them as i traveled round manc during the day
 
  182, GTR, C63


I see loads but ive only seen about 3 different cups round here compared to loadsa 172s and about 3-4 182s. When you travel somwhere else i find i dont see many though.
