Yes im going to have a word with Steve......my 197 was from him.

The saving money comes from not having to have a loan or finance because id be able to buy the 182 outright.

Just been looking on my lunch at work and sending a few messages to various garages to enquire about part exchanges. - will see what comes back. Are they similar to 197 I.e. make sure belts have been changed and just generally looked after?

Hi All, Thinking about moving from my 197 to a 182. There are a couple of reasons for the move but main ones being - I have always liked and appreciated the 182. - I could do with a cheaper car for a little while as I have just brought a new house and want to save a bit of money to do things...

Hi all, Just wondered whether anyone can suggest someone tha refurbs alloys in the Leicestershire area? Mine are currently black but were kurbed before they were sprayed and I would like them refurbing and painting again. Thanks James

Hi All, After having my 197 for a couple of days there is one thing slightly annoying me but dont know if about the subject to sort it myself. Apparently I have the *see attached image* kit fitted to my car which is fine and I like but when I have my full beams on (e.g. flashing people)...

Whats a steering wheel insert? James

No I don't have recaros. Just the standard Renault Sport ones.

haha liking the responses. Very positive.

Hi All, I have had my 197 for only a day but I have about £100 to spend and im not sure what to spend it on. - Interior items - New Headunit - Exterior styling Basically I do like the standard styling and don't really want to do any performance mods at this stage but whether it be a...

I have received these emails a couple of times while ive been trying to sell my Peugeot and to be honest I dont even understand the scam.....what are they actually after!?

I do agree with this but oldskool isnt always good because I cant afford time/money to be repairing a 6/7 years old car if the 182 breaks but then again I could have the same argument for the 197........Im confusing myself now :)

Im not really looking to mod whichever I get though. I like the standard car, if anything it would just be an exhaust or something further down the line but that would only be for improved sounds.

By its a better car do you mean just all round better? Am I right in thinking that the insurance group of the 197 is cheaper? Whats fuel consumption like? Thanks for the reply. James

Right things have changed for me recently and I have a decision to make.... As ive already mentioned in other threads I have a car to sell but did want to buy a 182 as my next car........I now have a bit more money to play with and the 197 is also in my price range. I just cannot decide...

Basically I still don't have a Clio because I am waiting on the sale of my 206 but looking around at different ones for sale I cannot decide which colour I am going to focus on!? I really like orange, silver and some black ones but what influenced your decision? James

I didnt feel it was too bad to be honest especially because its insuring my girlfriend on the car as well. I have seen some quote on here of £1,500 for just the 182 so £1,500 for two cars I thought was alright. Any other opinions? James

Hi all, Me and my girlfriend currently have a Admiral Multi Car policy and insure a 1998 Corsa 1.2 and a 2005 206 1.6 Sport. My girlfriend is 21 and I am 24 - she has 1 year NCB and I have 4 years. Because it's a Multi Car policy we can also drive each others car (which is a pretty...

I have seen Clio's before but have never really seen a 182 in the metal even though this is the car I have decided I want. Unfortunately I cannot find one local to me which is in a garage so I can go and have a look and I don't want to go and look at one with a private seller because I do...

I only live up the road from the garage so just went to have a look at it but they didn't have the car there. I asked the bloke and apparently it hasn't arrived yet from wherever they have sourced it from. I do like the Petrol Blue colour though.

Hi All, My local garage is advertising a Met Green 182 on a 55 plate. There is no picture with the advert and I havent had time to go and look at it yet but looking around etc I havent seen a Met Green 182. I have searched on this forum and couldnt find one. Could someone upload a picture...

hahaha because I want to play with snow foam. I dont wash my car religiously every weekend but when I do I like it make it shine and give it another lease of life again. James

Hi all, Im not a big fan of cleaning my car but would like a good priced pressure washer especially now summer is on it way. It can be nice to get out and clean the car in nice weather. Anyway, I would like a snow foam lance as well if possible and im not too clued up on exactly what I...

Thanks for the replies. Im glad I am getting some responses which point towards the 182 even though I suppose its a pretty biased forum :rasp: A lot of my friends and family think I am mad to not snap the BMW up but the 182 really does interest me and I have all my life I suppose to try a...

Hello and Welcome!

Any thoughts on this? Thanks James

HAHAHA I dont know why I have kept this name, Ive had it since the good old MSN days.

Thanks for the reply. Basically I have been offered the chance of having a Z4 2.2 on a 54 plate from my mum :) Obviously I will need to buy it (which will be more than a Clio) but we know the history of the car and everything has always been done at the Sytners. I like the Clio's a lot and...

Thanks for the Welcome's. As mentioned I am looking for a 182 and had a couple of questions to ask. Basically reliability...... How reliable are they as cars? Obviously you can never to from car to car but as a whole, Im coming from a Peugeot but havent had any problem with it at...

I am living in Loughborough, Leicestershire and am completely new to the world on Renault and Clio. I currently have a Peugeot 206 Auto Sport which is for sale on this site but am looking for a Clio 182. Hopefully you will see me around a lot more in the coming weeks/months. Thanks...
