some of us dont have the luxury of just buying on impulse, i'll be buying the next car through my motability scheme, so by looking at what cars are worth now is very beneficial to me. So even if something better is about in a years time is no good to me, as i wont be able to afford them. Thats...

thought about a V6 but with kids the V doesnt quite fit the bill lol, 12 months is a long time, but it gives me time to see who is offering the best deal on their respective used car deals.

must admit i do like the rear of the 182 more, which might just be the clincher for me.

looking at around the 10k mark

Looking at either the 172 or 182 come next march, but i'm really clueless as to which to get, i prefer the look of the rear on the 182 as i like the twin pipe look, but can i have a good pro's & con's list from respective owners please?

help i need a comprahensive list of dealers within a hundred mile radious of Northampton, that have 4 year old 172s in stock, according the renault site there are none available, please help i need to know what sort of price so when i send my current car back to motability, i know what i am...

f**k off Homer gutted for ya mate, wheels look mint too. hope all gets sorted sharp.

hate it looks garbage

missed it, by the sounds of it i had a lucky escape. does it really matter what the program though anyway, we love the 182 whether its the cup version or not. The CTR is an eye catcher, but not as eye catching as the 182 :D

so the advice is do it, but dont expect to much of gain, but engine note will be improved ;)

i like the idea of having 182bhp on tap when the 182 is finally mine, but how much difference would an induction kit, performance chip and a zorst make, any ideas would be greafully recieved :)

i dont know Tom, i find ride very good, some roads round my way are in a terrible state anyway, but on the whole i enjoy it. :)

mines lowered 60mm on standard shocks, how long theyll last ive no idea, but it all seems fine at the mo. I think it really depends on the type of driving you do, if you do Track Days then standard shocks are definately no good, but standard road conditions i personally dont see that it makes...

A mate took me out in his on sunday night, and just sitting in it felt awsome, the yes give me more of that, certainly made me realise just how slow the 1.2 is :o

1.2 16v qs5 mpg absolutely no idea thrashed daily :D

i cant, but i have to. but it gives me time to save the deposit :)

I went into my local dealer, and he was ready to do me a deal, might be lucky come next summer :)

Went down to the local Renualt show room, to have a little chat with the main motabilty guy down there. And i got some very good news. They will accept the motability finance deal over 5 years for the 182, I just have to find a sizable deposit, as i will need around 3 to 5k which might not be...

Im hoping they drop a little more by this sort of time next year too

Ill never lease another car that is for sure, ill be buying the next one. Yes do keep me posted on how things pan out for your folks.

thats just cruel, motability make the mistake and yur folks have to pay for it.

If you are ever unfortunate enough to find yourself in my possition (being physically challenged) and get a motability car, my advise is simple, buy the car you want as apposed to leasing it, as i am now. I had an inspection, everything was ok, as i have performance enhancing modifications, but...

SWEET :D

Spotted an Artic Blue 182 on the Bedford Road in Northampton at 13.30ish today, seemed in a bit of a hurry too ;)

no worries mate, you mentioned how busy you were
