Just got rid of my 197 against a 182.
Don't suppose anybody on here owned the 182 previous. The Reg is PN05 BVF.
Thanks

Interested on your thoughts as to how they compare? Hope you enjoy it

 

[Ash_haslam]

To be fair I haven't really driven it a lot to make a decision. It does feel very different... But il let you know

 

[Ash_haslam]

So after using the car quite a bit over the weekend I've come to the conclusion that I prefer it to the 197... And it feels quicker [emoji51] just need to got it dropped a little as the standard arch gap is pants.

Welcome to the 182 club. Great cars.

Don't suppose you know of anyone selling any springs? And KTR induction kit? Cheapish ha

Welcome aboard I have both of them the 197 and the 182 however I prefer the 182 all day every day just great fun I have ktec coil overs, ktec induction kit and power flow exhaust system on mine

Got any pictures? I I must say I don't miss my 197 apart from the looks.. The 182 feels so much more fun.

If you become a member you will probably find both for sale in the for sale section, if not you could put up a wanted thread in the wanted section.

You could also save some money and go for the home made ktr style induction..

Welcome to the club. I'm sure you'll see petrol stations a bit less in the 182 as well.

I'm very surprised at the mpg of the 182!!!
Although I didn't realise it was recommended to run them on 98RON! totally missed the huge sticker on the filler cap haha

 

[Matthew]

Never ran any of mine on 98. They run just fine on normal stuff if you can't be arsed.

 

[Ash_haslam]

Ahh I see that's good then. Because the nearest petrol station that does v power nitro is quite out of my way.
