Looking in the renault sport brochure it lists the width of the 182 as 1940mm and the V6 as 1830mm, is this correct? The Vee visually looks wider to me.
Thanks James, that confirms the brochure is wrong as they look to have quoted the V6 width against the 182. I was getting worried as my garage door is only 2030mm wide and my missus ripped the passenger side mirror off the old VTR... twice...
Does anyone have the correct width for a 182? is it 1830mm?
Wing mirror tip to wing mirror tip its no wider than a 172. My old 172 went through out drive gates with an inch to spare, and the Vee just fits through the same space. Mind you, you have to watch out for the front arches and side pods when youre trying to squeeze it into a tight driveway!!
The car will fit into a single garage, but you gotta be careful about those side pods & be really careful trying to open the door to get out. Ive banged mine a couple of times, which has left a tattly looking mark on the edge of the door. Might also help if your slim & can squeeze out of small places.
LOL ... that was when the garage was still being finished and was basically empty. Since then Ive painted the walls and floor, put up cupboards and a work surface, and then filled it up with tools, paint, bikes etc.. Still loads of room for the Vee tho Made sure that there was a new loft above the bedrooms above the garage to take all the Xmas decs
Havent got any pictures other than these ones from the other week when the Vee was cleaned for the first time in months ...
Just jealous Andy, I have two garages, one holds two Clios [V6 & 182] and the other holds 3 cars and two bikes plus lofts full of Chrissy decs, etc. Both garages look like they been hit by a Tsunami on Boogy Street, New Orleans! The Clios only ever get cleaned when there is an R in the month. Nice snaps.
