Well I picked it up yesterday, its a high miler but its got the history required (unlike many with even 1/4 of the miles) and it feels like a new car.
What a giggle these stupid cars are I wasnt sure even after numerous test drives, but getting out in it on my own has proven to be most satisfactory does the mpg I wanted/expected when cruising at 70mph so its ticked all boxes.... oh and the Mrs loved showing some youth whos boss when she went shopping lol.
Few niggles like leaking headlight washers and a melted wheel but they are easy/cheap to fix
Only 'plans' are to get a nasty set of 15's and put winter rubber on there and maybe look at the brakes since they feel a little wooly (although passed an MOT last week). Oh and to stripe it lol, I know many hate them but if I'm going to have a ghey blue clio I might aswell fully chav it up (no thats not being deliberately controversial, its just how I feel about the naughty little slut)
My previous car to this was a VX220 and I have to say the 182 feels faster and much nicer than the 2.2 N/A does/did. Just need to get it on track to see how it behaves there, but I imagine its going to be just as much fun
