*lee is not endorsing the 182, even though its quick, comfortable, capable on track as standard, refined, and full of nice toys, and doesnt wake people for miles around* ;) Forgot to say cheap.

1) No

My car gets to do what she wants,she goes on all her favourite roads and gets a good work out with some tight bends and hard moves.She always rides through the Ribble Valley which is full of suprises.
 


lol

*loony is buying but not endorsing the 182 but yozza should remember his cup had all the same traits before he removed half of the original parts and replaced 25% of the remaining ones with uprated or modified bits*

;)

1) Yes - and quite happy to stay there

2) Because I got tired of dumb ar$e men bullying and overtaking me in my 1.4 Si

3) I occasionally drive it around the South which is much nicer than the North

4) Why the hell would anyone want to move up North?

Because up North there is a thing called countryside,and lots of it.We have the best countryside over here,with far better roads,and lots of them which is something thats hard to find down south.

People are really friendly up North. They would give you the shirt of their backs, unless you are in Liverpool or Manchester, which arent strictly Northern, there theyll nick the shirt off your back. ;)

Well some of us prefer to drive at a sensible speed and use the brakes instead of hitting the animals...

From a Southerner, just off to have a nice cold beer...

Nope dont live the city, whats the fun in driving any car around a city let alone one that is primarily design for B-Road Blasts!


Its just a shame so many other people seem to live in the country these days, how dare they fill the many miles of sweeping country roads with their oversized and ugly SUVs!

They cancelled my own private parking bay at dealers, they now come to my house to do the work. This is an effort to stop inconveniencing me. Dont think they will ever be able to put in enough effort to make it up to me.

I live near Dudley it smells lovely on Fridays and saturdays, I goto the countryside at weekends so I can see white people again, but theyre all a blur from my 182. lol

I live in Staffordshire. The peaks are only 20 minutes away from me. The 182 will be making regular trips up there as my current 172 does now. Im not Northern and Im not Southern. Im a Midlander (which is probably considered northern by the Southeners - there is life beyond the Watford gap you know!!) meaning Im blessed with a neutral sounding Staffordshire accent.

I dont live in a city, and never will do. Dont get me wrong, I like Cities but couldnt live in one. I only ever see tramps when Im in a city. Which is reason enough.

I live miles away from the nearest City in a small town/Village up North.

I did the living in the South (London) thingy and couldnt wait to get back up North.It was a pain in the arse having to crawl through London just to find a road to go faster than 20mph on with countryside views.I see that every single time i get in my car now :) B roads rule where i live and the 182 loves it.Dont do sitting in traffic wondering why on Earth i have a quick car chomping at the bit to give it some ;)

If i was forced to move back to London id sell up and get a Lambretta :cool:
