LY 182 swapping for a trophy!!!

[yellow182jon]

Is this worth it, need advise from you guy's & girl's who have made the change from 172 ,182.

 

[ollie]

Nah! Keep LY, turns more heads

 

[Dan 172]

Depends if you are planning to do a few tarcks days or not?

But I would keep the LY.

 

[FlameR]

no point really. LY is a much nicer colour!

 

[JON13S]

very true although the trophy is the 1 to have from a clio nut perspective but to every1 else the yellow one looks the nuts!

 

[Adamhodg]

id keep the liquid yellow
More rarer and certainly turns heads when you see one.

 

[Timmay]

keep the yellow! much more special

 

[ollie]

Wouldn't be much difference really would there? Be different if you were swapping for a vee

 

[Yellow Dave]

I had the choice of a trophy when I bought my Liquid Yellow, no contest really

 

[ollie]

Liquid Yellow on trophy alloys... Yum

 

[JON13S]

^^ agreed!

 

[Steve]

For show LY, to drive Trophy.

 

[Yellow Dave]

For show LY, to drive Trophy.

In my experience, I'd say it was more down to the driver.
I played with a local Trophy and was all over the back of him round the twisties on my private road. He certainly had no advantage driving a trophy

Same driver in boths cars would agree with my first statement,

I like the yellow but prefere the drive of the trophy

 

[Jay]

Depends on if you'll miss the fancy features such as xenons, climate, leather/alcantara seats in the back etc etc??

 

[Sarah]

keep the LY you will miss the rare car if you switch it for the trophy

 

[Wards]

^^agree

Dont really understand this, your not gonna buy a trophy because the colour isn't as nice.......have a word. If your after a more engageing drive then its got to be the trophy. But if you love the LY so much get a set of coilovers.

Would highly recommed a test drive in a trophy.You will notice a difference.

just my thoughts tho

I went from a FF 182 with Cup packs to the Trophy. The drive is noticably different, especially the ride which is much harder. The 182 was a better all rounder but I don't regret swapping it for the Trophy.

As for all the colour talk a liquid yellow 182 is just a 182. A rare colour, but nothing else rare about it.

Luckily I love the Trophy in red. Liquid yellow does nothing at all for me, but then I'm sick of seeing it on every car Renault UK seem to take to their track days at the moment.

 

[B16DOE]

no point what so ever

When I had my Racing Blue 182 I loved Liquid Yellow, not regreting having RB one bit just loved LY also.

When I decided to sell the 182 for a V6, there was no question it HAD to be Liquid Yellow...... once owning a LY V6 it was great, but after a short while there was a bit of doubt in my mind that I miss Racing Blue. Now as Lee says LY use to be rare but now it's everywhere you see, not making it so special.

 

[Chili Red]

Keep the LY!!

Jay, I'm so jealous that you had a yellow Vee

At least you have a RB 182.

I've gone from a RB 182 to a LY V6 to a van

Liquid Yellow on trophy alloys... Yum

well said

 

[dale172]

LY with Recaros....moist

 

[ADY 554D]

i think if i had a ly and was offered a straight swap for a trophy in roughly the same condition then i would be tempted but if it meant spending a lot to swap then i would have to give it some serious consideration :quiet:

 

[Lagerlout]

Trophy. A Trophy is a special 182.

A 'LY 182' is a normal cooking 182 in a garish colour.

 

[Ad]

Id just buys some coilovers.

 

[edde]

I'd keep the 182 personaly.

 

[Rich]

Yeap keep the LY and get some H&R's on it - job done.

 

[DebV6]

I'd keep the ly, such a sexy colour! LY with Recaros, mmm... *drool*

 

[Giles]

keep the LY 182
