182 or 172? I've noticed it's not the cup model.

Careful of the cruise control it has a tendency to not turn off, ask saintaii on here

Well at least you got the colour right. Slap some gold wheels on it and squint a bit and you could be fooled at a distance.

You are such a LIAR Nicola! - You spent the money on a sex change and a lifetimes subscription to www.big_boys_in_boots.com and Chicks with Dicks monthly

Ignore the silly negative coments, these cars are great in the twistys, and go very well with the ktec throttle bodies!

rabbit\badger\fox casulty probably...get some pics up

The only one I can find locally with both cup packs is blimming silver; both my wagon and ST170 are silver though. New colour required...guess I'll have to be patient

Great cars. Probably as enjoyable, if not more so, than a scoob on a dry b road.

Nice car lots of fun as long as you don't get a lemon as Renault had a habit of producing duds.

Will stick a thread up soon.

I prefer driving my 182 around b roads compaired to my subaru. I think the steering in my impreza is really light

I was tempted to get a 172 or 182 as a track car.

My mate uses one for hillclimbs - he says the bhp can vary massively between engines. Like 20bhp difference between a good engine and a duff one. Mmmmm.

They seem pretty rapid though and i love how they stick their real wheel in the air around corners. And that was when i was following one pulling out of a motorway service station

The Clio V6 was the mid engined jobbie.
If you look up the page at Nick172's avatar pic, thats what a V6 model looks like.
