Non-Sports In Here..

[SteveyB.]

Bonnet and boot are a different silver to rest of car? Or am I wrong? Lol. Same colour as mine though get some coilovers and lower it loads and it'll be a good start

Just the boot mate! Plans are to sort out the fried egg bulbs, dent removal, fit my new bumper, team dynamics in black, rs grille, lower by 50mm

Fair enough. Yeah I've done the silver visions on mine, makes a massive difference. Also mines sitting around 75mm all round atm lol. If you go on my profile there's a list of all the mods on there I'm keeping an eye out for team dynamics aswell. Got a black bonnet and badges on mine so I think they'll set it all off nicely!

Probably get alot of comments about the lights in this pic but I quite like them when the cars clean and shiny

[iOllieSM]

how low is this mate?

It's on coilovers so I'm not 100% sure on the exact height, but I think it's around 75mm ish front and back

Pretty sure I've asked you this before but I can't remember the answer, which colies are you running?

 

[bryera]

some nice pics in there relly like the clio mk3 think i will have to look at one in a sports lol !

 

[iOllieSM]

Haha hi mate, yeah somebody has asked me recently, may not have been you. Idk. Im running v-Maxx coilovers on mine

 

[SteveyB.]

How do they handle/ride? I want lows but love the way the car handles atm

The handling is excellent. The ride however is a little rough. On roads which are well surfaced its fine, matter of fact is brilliant but on roads which are, well, s**t... It's not great. I mean it doesn't bother me personally, I just love the look of it! If you aren't fussed overly about a bit of a bumpy ride, I'd reccomend them. If comfort is everything for you though - steer clear!

 

[iOllieSM]

Also to add, mines slammed so the ride is probably worse for that reason. If you're only lowering about 50mm or less it may be better

Ollie

 

[SteveyB.]

Rough ride doesn't bother me, I'm used to doing many miles in the passenger seat of a mk1 ford escort mexico (1972) so the roughness shouldn't be an issue. I'd want at least 60mm I think, just looks like it's on stilts atm especially with little 14's on

Fair enough! Then yes I'd reccomend them mines currently sitting at around 75 - 80mm.

Not trying to have a dig here, and don't get me wrong that's a lovely looking car, but what happens when you get a real clio sport pull up next to you or behind you? Don't you feel a bit... Silly? Should keep 1.2 badges on It and take off 'sport ' IMO. That way it doesn't look like its trying to be a sport, just a smart looking 1.2. My opinion

 

[ryanhavana]

Good lord that looks bloody amazing! How much are you totalling for that kind of work?

I don't think it's a matter of speed to be honest, hopefully he's sensible enough not to rag it everywhere because it's a smart looking motor, plus I'm pretty sure he knows he'd easily lose in a race with a RS 182

Seriously though, looks fantastic.

 

[JordonM]

I see what your saying, but no-one has done that... yet lol. The way I think is, if you have a nice car, theres no need to rag it everywhere, because then people do race you! People with fast cars drive them slowly Price wise, I have no idea. I bought the car with most of those modifications already done, but at a guess I'd say around £5000 mark, ridiculous in my opinion, but good for people who buy it after!

That looks great, I thought someone had posted pics of a 182 in the wrong section.
I'd do that to my 1.2 if insurance would let me as I plan to keep it till it dies anyway, would'nt get it sprayed but, far 2 expensive for a 1.2
Is there much difference on insurance costs of this and a standard 1.2?
If it was mines I'd buy 16v bullets and paint them the same as the wheels with colour coded 16v and remove the renault sport badges from the boot then maybe buy the new style R E N A U L T badge to fill the blank space (no sport badge) thats just what I'd do mate it's your car

 

[Two Foot Tone]

Nothing yet! Need ideas!! Loads i want to do!

get rid of those alloy wheels straight away, put them on ebay or something, they do not suit at all. (all opinion of course!)

 

[Wayne-G]

Thats quite nice! Definatley should badge it up as a 1.2. Dont want people thinking 182's are slow haha

 

[JordonM]

Insurance isn't that different really, was quite surprised. Not going to spray the badges as of yet as I think I'm changing the wheels, and I'm still deciding on the colour.

 

[Dr HMS Derv Destroyer]

that van needs steelies and decking. those alloys are awfull. the blue rep above is LOVELY. wish i had made my dCi like that, not modified half rep

Buy it from skeg? A lad i know use to own it, is really nice, looks spot on except the CAF and the bullets.

 

[Aztec95]

Alloys came with the van! All came how it is with the worse ever spray! The kid i bought it off put the wheels on, sprayd the side plastics white, standard bumpers sprayed white with grille and the wing mirrors! All terrible!

 

[Aztec95]

Main reason i joined the site! Need alot of ideas and pointing in the right directions!
