Thinking of getting a 182 but what colour?

[MADNESS88]

3 im interested in are

burnt orange is it?
back, gold?
or Racing Blue?

 

[syko6288]

Arctic blue i love them in that colour hence why ive got one

 

[Revels]

It's called Infero Orange.

I'd go Racing Blue from those. Black will be a nightmare to keep clean.

 

[Darren S]

Inferno, black gold or racing blue? Not thought of liquid yellow or even better, petrol blue?

D.

 

[Kane.]

Not many petrol blues on here is there ? Personally inferno or bg.

 

[silentsnake]

Would be inferno for me!

 

[MADNESS88]

iv looked at others an yes there all very nice but those 3 i like quite a bit an never seen the inferno orange ever

 

[Kane.]

Lol, ive only ever seen an inferno 182.

 

[Fletcher]

Red. I'd get a trophy

 

[JackJack]

Racing Blue

 

[Will.]

Black Gold. I love black. Then I would look at getting a LY.

BUT. I would never consider taking a LY on track. One slight scratch and you will have a nightmare getting the colour matched.

 

[VIICarCare]

BG

I wanted black and settled for RB because it was a bit of a bargain.

Glad I did now, blacks look really good in pictures, but as soon as they get dirty they dont. Same for monaco and the 172's red, looks good clean but not so dirty

Inferno is nice too, personally i wouldn't go LY but thats because i dont see the point in paying a big premium to be called gay :S

 

[Jordi17]

Arctic blue, lovely in that colour imo

 

[Darren S]

All the comments about black gold being difficult to keep clean are 3,000% true.

It looks truly awesome when cleaned, PC'd and polished. But then a gnat in Libya decides to fart and the resulting effect is that the 182 is caked in s**t again. It has the perfection looking lifespan of around 0.000025 secs. And that's on a good day.

Put bluntly, I would never, ever buy a black car from new again.

[!big ash!]

inferno thats y i got one, or id have gone liquid yellow

 

[Will.]

TBH when I had my black 1.4 I loved it, but with it looking dirty all the time really annoyed me and I said I would never own a black one again. But then I got a black 172, purely because they look f**king awesome. Even when dirty, I look at it and it looks fab. It does look a million times better when clean though

 

[Stan.]

It's going to be personal preference isn't it.

I'd go for racing blue but only because I had one.

 

[MADNESS88]

lol on black comments they do look super but agree i had a ph1 172 in black an wasnt nice when sunny! im tempted on the inferno as i never seen one on the road, thanks you for the comments

 

[Hugo-]

BG look awesome clean. For the other 99.99999% of the time it look pants.

I wish I had got inferno but at the time there were no decent ones about.

 

[markkram]

Inferno all the way

Don't forget that the specification changes slightly for the 182 based on the colour. An inferno or racing blue 182 will be a 182 Cup, whereas the black gold 182 won't be.

You might be right on the inferno front but you can have a racing blue 182 that isn't a cup.

I had a racing blue 182 with both cup packs

My Inferno is a FF with both cup packs so not a cup !!

That's why I said he might right because I wasn't sure on the inferno front.........so sorry

Why sorry? I was confirming what you had said but for the inferno not the racing blue.

 

[smit247]

Big fan of the Arctic - if you've not seen one in the metal then do it. Second pref for me would be racing blue, looks awesome with white alloys imo

 

[MADNESS88]

an you reckon about 4K is good priceing for 182 cup at 45000-50000 miles? fsh etc i found a few an thought seems good price from dealers?

 

[chrizz]

Used to have an arctic blue 182, loved the colour. Picking up a LY with both cup packs this week (Part exing my PT Cruiser, lol). 34k miles, £4500 with FSH

 

[Harpham]

RB all the way!!

/thread.

 

[Kat@Renparts]

Iv got a black gold 182 and it's currently so dirty it looks like it's made out of stone! I didn't even consider having a 182 until i saw this one very cheap so put a deposit down and went to pick it up! Think if I could choose I'd like a racing blue or liquid yellow

What? You think I'd roll in a poverty spec 182. My inferno is not a cup! Don't think there is many about though.

 

[7unner172]

racing blue ftw!

 

[regi james]

if you love cleaning cars twice a week and showing every little stone chip or swirl mark get a BG if not avoid. if i could go back in time i would have got a colour that is easier keep clean

 

[Pedro]

BG all the way!

 

[MADNESS88]

inferno is the decision me thinks and will be a cup as i really dont need the extras, but would be nice if they had the sport leather/alacantra seats, can be a mod for another time though

 

[DrR]

How much you spending?

 

[Matty_N]

Inferno FTW.

I think they look epic and bet they attract alot of attention on the road.

 

[JayR]

RB's the best of the bunch you picked (by a stretch).

LY if not and you can deal with a Yellow car.

 

[coley22]

They look good
