question: 172/182 ages

[Hector]

right, how come you can get 53plate 182s and 04plate 172s? was just looking and it seemed strange...

 

[msa197]

depends when the car was fisrt registered iirc

 

[edde]

Some 182 swere 53 registered as demos etc.
there sre some later registration 172s jsut the way it happens.

 

[Hector]

oh ok, just wondering

 

[Ally]

Yep, basically as above. When I bought my 172 from new (start of April '04) the 182 was already out, but I got a great price on the 172 and couldn't stretch the extra for a 182.

I've only seen a few 53 plate 182's, theres one local to me and the GDi car is a 53 plater IIRC.

53 plate 182's were press cars, dunno how many more there were

 

[Andy GDI]
