2004 182 ff petrol blue :)

[sussex]

Just put a holding deposit down on a 2004 petrol blue 182 its immaculate 50k, full history paid 3k from a dealer which thought was a touch rich but theres not a mark on it anywhere. Plus having look online for another I cannot find one for sale anywhere, I understand its a rare colour but is it really that rare? Should collect tomorrow so picks to follow

 

[Beef-Mc]

If it's the one I'm thinking of it looks box fresh apart from the headunit! I think there's only something like 39 in the country.

 

[sussex]

Thats the one although a headunits easy to change, I think he may even still have the original one. I ckuldnt believe the condition when I saw it so there is much excitedness at my house today! 39 is quite a limited run then

 

[Kelv]

is this one thats located around the Copthorne area?

 

[The Chubby Pirate]

3k isn't expensive for a 182 in good order!

 

[sussex]

is this one thats located around the Copthorne area?

Yeah thats the one mate

 

[jesus]

Have the belts been done with the servicing? If so then that's an excellent purchase.

 

[sussex]

The cambelt was done last year and as far as the book goes it has all its stamps im yet to delve into tbe reciepts folder

 

[banther]

This is exaclty what I'm looking for!! How did you find it per chance?

I've got one, best colour for sure, here's my thread:

Here are the figures that I worked out some time ago:

Decided to be a bit sad and work out the relative rareness of the different spec PBs:

So....

There were 29 made, with 5 having no packs, 21 having cup spoilers, 21 having cup suspension and one with Recaro seats (which I have read had both cup packs).

Therefore in order of rarity they are:

1st rarest = Recaro seats and cup packs (only 1 sold)
Joint 2nd = Cup spoilers only (3 sold) and cup suspension only (3 sold)
4th rarest = No cup packs (5 sold)
5th rarest = Normal seats and both cup packs (17 sold)

That makes mine the 5th rarest - at least I won't feel so bad if I decide to tweak it a little.

Right, off to get a new anorak!!
​

I think the one for sale (i.e. the one you have bought) has the cup spoilers but not the cup suspension so it is one of only 3 made with that spec! If yours is an '04 it's an early one, mine was registered in July 2004 and I have been told (and have a letter from Renault to prove) that mine was the first PB ever imported, i.e. number 1 of 29. Yours can't be long after that!

[jenic]

What's upgraded radio?

I thought all the 182's had the same cabasse stereo?

Miine was registered on 13th July 2004 - I might have been the first to think about ordering petrol blue.

 

[sussex]

Its sm54 registered and it is the spoiler pack no cup suspension I found it a a dealers ive used a couple times before I was just sucked in by the colour and then yhe condition about to ho vollecy now so will update wigh thoughts!

 

[Matt26]

I've never seen a PB in the metal, but they are probably my favourite colour now!

 

[Kelv]

Yeah thats the one mate

from what I've seen of it, it looks a nice tidy example

 

[sussex]

It drives lovely got the standard renault cabin rattles as youd expect, but all is well bar the head unit which is an outrage!

 

[dezmondo]

The boosh, hats off sir, I hang up my anorak in shame.

 

[FatRS]

The boosh, can you get chassis numbers to that exact list and build dates? I'd be interested to see when mine was built in that bunch.

 

[dezmondo]

Would it not be an issue printing a list of peoples chassis numbers? I once bought a R5 GTT which had had the chassis number ground out and one from the same type of car added to hide the fact it was stolen!

I just emailed Renault and they both rang me and sent me a letter confirming it was the first to be imported, I'm sure you could do the same!

 

[George@RTR_Parts]

Great colour this, only ever seen a couple on the road but really like them. Didn't realise they were that rare at only 29

 

[sussex]

Whilst looking for the brand new tax disk I appear to have lost I found a renault pioneer 6disk changer under the passenger seat, upgraded radio? Unfortunately as the head unit is a poor diy fit head unit its not working atm along with the stalk controls although this is due to be rectified

I was thinking of just the last 4/5 digits only. That way with the list The Boosh added earlier we could sort a proper register like the Sunflowers. Why should they have all the exclusive fun?

 

[FatRS]

Sussex, what town do ku live in? I'm guessing you're local(ish) to me. Ill keep a lookout for you.

A fair plan!
