I'm very close to signing for a Albi blue 200 with cup pack, Recaros, cornering lights, bluetooth etc. system, folding mirrors. I am getting it for cost price. I'll probably negotiate some speedlines in too 
I own a nice 182, I bought it completely standard and have spent alot of time and money getting it to how I want.
The thing is, I decide i want the 200 then change my mind, I then do this again and again and again.. normally around 30 times a day :boring:
I love my 182, it's had everything done to it while still keeping it an immaculate and unmolested example but the 200 is a brand new and a much better car. The only thing i wasn't happy with the 200 was the straight line speed. The one i drove only had 4 miles on the clock but after talking and PM'ing 197 and 200 owners they say the engine does loosen up and there would be no difference between the 200 and 182.
Engine wise, my 182 has had matched inlets, straight through milltek exhaust, modified cat, V6 espace indction set up and a remap so it will pull much better than a standard 182, therefore quicker than a 200 but shall i trade a quicker car in for a better car?
The main reason i would sell the 182 is because they are becoming very cheap therefore they are probably the one of the first thing young drivers look at (now, im only 20 myself but by no means a rude boy street racer). Also with people trying to be 'different' they are ruining a perfectly good car and making them look s**t (best to be honest)!
I look at mine after a wash and am still in love with the car, its very well maintained and wont need touching for a long time unless something goes wrong.. which is another reason I should go for the 200.. Warranty! (albeit pish renault warranty)
So, as the title.. what would you do if you were in my shoes?

), better driving position, more composure on track. Faster? Meh, who cares... It's a better car.
