Yay! I'm back into Clio town!

[PinkoCommie]

After my fun and games with my 172, a dual carriageway, a dog, and my insurance company, then having to drive around in a crap
Vauxhaul Astra oil burner for the last couple of months.

I JUST GOT ME ANOTHER RENAULTSPORT!!

2005 182 in blue with antracite wheels.
18k miles
1 previous owner (BBC correspondant Andrew Marr )
Full Renault service history.
2 year unlimited mileage warranty.
Absolutely perfect.

I'll throw some pictures up shortly.

Just paid the deposit and transferred the money over, the dealer is going to do an oil and filter change and I can hopefully pick it up early next week.

Nipples? Do you mean the headlight washers?

Can you get colour code replacements?

Also, would it say on the V5 or similar if it has any of the cup packs on it, I'm assuming not, but it feels like a harder ride than the other 182's I test drove, dealer didn't know and it didn't state it anywhere on the paper work.

[A18XHO]

whats the story on clio + dog incident?

 

[Tupps]

Looks a mint motor mate, Personally (being a cup owner) i prefer them without the headlight washers

You can get the inserts

Excellent So how can you tell (my thoughts were it might be because of the anthracite alloys)?

Yeah, sorry about that, was posting from work so was being lazy

whats the story on clio + dog incident?

See http://www.cliosport.net/forum/showthread.php?t=361310

Long story short, hit a dog while doing 70+, got shafted by insurance as they claim there was underlying chassis damage not from that accident, but bad enough for them to refuse to insure it again. So in the end I got £1100 after excess and I have a 172 sat in a garage at the moment with no front bumper, headlights, drivers side wing, and a bent chassis. :-(

Nice car mate !! :approve:

 

[Ian_182]

Just the same as my old one

 

[jamescolli]

i'd absolutely love a rs clio lol

 

[Curley]

The inserts cost a bomb, and im sure you need the washers with the xenons fitted.

Car looks lovely mate!

The anthracite alloys shows it has cup suspension pack, and the cup spolier & splitter are visible from pics (other cup pack)

Nice one, not all bad in the end then.

 

[PinkoCommie]

Yay! just picked it up and took it for a little run.

Feels fantastic, gearbox is as tight as a ducks chuff, handling is excellent. I have a smile on my face again.

Now I can go and throw the keys to the damn Astra TD back to the company. YAY!
