Test Drive in 172

[badley]

I have driven passed the Bracknell renault garage a few times and noticed the silver 172 outside so this morning my girlfirend and I decided to got the garage and ask for a test drive. Usually I thought that one of the sales men took it for a quick burn then you swaped with him half way. But no, he offered me to drive it all the way, as my heart stepped up a gear.

I was very impressed with the touque and the handling. If anyone knows Bracknell then they know its full of roundabouts, but the clio made them feel like a pleasure to drive around with hardley any body roll.

Unfortunately I couldnt give it real test and strech her legs!, as the route we toke were all 40 MPH limits.

This had made me even more impressed with the 172 than peviously and it will have to be definate buy in the near future!!!

Fasinating.

Only kiddin mate, have you ever drove a 16v though, i bet they feel faster than any new Clio, but must admit the silver ones look the best.

Glad you liked it mate..

Hope you at least managed to take it up to the limiter .. but if you did in 1st then i guess you never got it into 2nd for very long with a 40mph limit..
