The import doesnt affect insurance - its just the insurance company likes to know where the cars come from. As for the 2 yr warranty thing its a myth, as of Dec 2003 all imorts have 3yrs warranty automatically (starting when first sold), however renault like it if you call them up and let...

Parked up outside the mini tesco, anyone on here?, must be fresh out of he box as i didnt realise they were on the road yet.

Tell him he can have it for 7k without the dvd player, then you can make a bit back from selling that private

Covkid has a point I have a identical 172 for sale at the mo(same price, age, milleage but standard) and a dealer phoned me yesterday and offered me more than the 7.5k you chaps are quoting for a private sale.

no, because its a right hand drive, the log book will have a dealers stamp in it on the front page, if its not a UK dealers its most prob an import or ring renault cust serices they will tell you in 2 minutes where it came from

absolutely no help now, but i find that if you go up these at an angle you should be fine (the chasis is so stiff that corner to corner you should have plenty of clearence). Still write the letter they get away with knackering our cars with these damn humps far to often.

Right i didnt realise that we had discussed to death 182 Vs Scooby, I thought we had discussed 182 vs 182 cup to death and my question wasnt related to saving 20kg on a 182, simply can the 182 match the scooby taking into account what was tested! it might just be simpler to take the question...

Big G - The question was how would a 182 do vs the scooby!!!!!!!! Do pay attention ;) [Edited by robd on 18 January 2005 at 5:29pm]

Not sure if this has been posted up already, but rave reviews for the cup :), Beating the scooby round the track by half a second, based on that and only a 20kg weight saving how do you think the 182 with cup packs would fair Vs the Scooby got to be a pretty close thing...

you dont have to apply for the third year of warranty as of Dec 03 all imports have full three years warranty automatically no registration required.

all imports made after december 03 have a full three year waranty automatically now (not 24 months), only difference to uk cars is the aa cover thingy

im up for going to Bedford, i havnt done a track day yet so would be good to stretch the legs of my 172. it wasnt a williams pretty standard looking Mk2 with a stupid exhaust, cant remember what the graphics said (just very big and red) but trust me you cant miss it, youd hear it long before...

I like the sound of that to, always better than plodding along on your own. I saw that little black clio with the leter box exhausts (and red graphics in the back window) on the way back, he was making a hell of a noise as he ambled down the road not something i could live with, way to load.

bummer feirce, if you wanna ride with me you can as i have to go through burnham, not the same but still get to see people?

says somewhere, bout 7pm on the 30th Feirce - I saw on the other thread you might be going form reading, but if you do leave from burnham let me know and ill hook up with you,

I like them, they do have a great hand brake that looks like an airplane throttle. however the start/stop button is in the wrong place, when i had one every time i stopped (lights/junction) my passenger hit the button and left me looking like a fool that couldnt drive properly. grrrrr

LMAO, brilliant quote

who else is heading over from slough, im pretty sure i know where the shire is, but would good to wander over with someone?

29th/30th is ideal for me as well (just after exams finish) and ill be in Slough as its a week night.

Hi Phil, youll get a completely different drive from the 172, being used to turbo lag and then jumping into the clio its so eager to pull. Youll find in a straight line of course the 20v t will pull away but the handling round corners isnt to great so a 172 will have the upper hand. Ive...

looks good to me, week day night suits me best aswell

unless he was very very small the car was empty :), thats the word on the street hopefully our mystery man will turn up soon and explain his rather extended que time for the strip

there is an auto lock feature, after a couple of mins with the doors shut it self arms

ran about 1 ish i think, it was in the que for the strip, stuck there for about three hours, class

so who was the cup owner who locked their keys in the car and spent half the day trying to get back in? Lol

im up for a meet to, havnt met any of you guys in real life yet.
