I have to say that i do not understand why Renault brought out the 182 cup, as the 182 has cup suspension and spoiler up-grades. The best bits from the 172cup and the 172 with 9 bhp more. The 182 cup is 20kgs less (i think) - different between a big man and a small man. So buy a 182 with cup pack, then loose some weight and have best of both worlds once again. The 182 cup is very nasty in my opinion - it looks like a budget car due to the 182 havin everything already. The 172 cup offered a different experience to the 172, but the 182 cup just offers no leather, manual air con and a few other things taken off or down sized. It is like gettin the bus and sittin in the luggage rack at the front - you get off the bus a bit quicker as you are by the door, but is not as nice as sittin on a seat! (sorry)

Yeah I know, so everyone keeps telling me, yet I failed to find a genuine UK 182Cup that wasnt imported, pre-reg, ex demo, or canecelled, for less cash from any reputable source
Inferno, is there any other colour to get a Cup in!?

well lloydstsb carselect are doing them for £11,181 which would have saved you a grand! They are uk car and not pre-registered, sure i mentioned them earlier in the thread. Comes from a renault dealer too.
and personally i would have got racing blue but inferno is a close second for me!

cheers for clearing that one up!!
sh*t happens, Im sure I could have got it cheaper if Id tried, although most of the cheapo deals I saw were for the blue Cups. Hey ho...Im not skint so not too bothered about the odd few hundred squids.
GeeUK, you know it! The Inferno Cup looks like it wants to take you to hell and back in 6 seconds!
Ive not been this excited since I got a Le Mans 24hr Scalextrix for Christmas about 20 years ago

Its all part of the 182 experience having to wait but boy its worth it
Hi,
New member here. Ive been thinking about replacing my VW Polo with a 182 (with Cup packs) and have been doing a bit of research. I know its a bit too late for you now Roy, but the cheapest place Ive found so far is http://www.ukcarbroker.co.uk/renaultclio.htmhttp://www.ukcarbroker.co.uk/renaultclio.htm. Ill probably order one from them next spring.
Nah, losing the company car, and selling the 306 to further fund the new car. I cant stall the company til March. Whats more, I dont personally care about it being an 05 plate. It will be an 05 car. Why not just keep waiting six months and never actually buy it?
A agree, its close timing, but in my case I dont have a choice, and frankly, even if I did, Id take delivery ASAP regardless.FREE*g MUPPETS,
There is so little differenc between all 172/182 variants it is not to be believed. The only difference is the outright idiocy of the driver. If you gave all variances one driver then perhaps one, and I will state again will give a very slight performance difference.
BOYS get real most if not all of you will never never get any difference.
This is bull sh*t pub talk.
A proper driver ca drive a 1.6 anything and keep up with any RenaultSport. That means basically all of you. Why bother with 20KGS. Christ, thats more than the difference between the weight of drivers!!!!
GET A LIFE + REALISM
Mark
what about your attitiude?
I ve read three of your posts and all youve done is told all of us to grow up or get a life!?!

Put it on hold and get an 05 plate on the 1st march....By the time you actually get your car you will be six weeks away from a new reg and your car will looka year oldian
I have done that with mine, orderd it last week for 1st of March delivery, only as im in no rush for the car and spring means less winter grime on the roads!
