EJ Taylor 22 Posted April 28, 2017 Was bored of feeling crap about having nothing fun to drive (solely driving the Caddy) and fed up feeling like sh it day in day out cus i dont have a car, dont get me wrong, i still want the corrado back/ an sl55, but after speaking to a close friend, about the cheapness and fun surrounding the clio 172/182 he talked me into going to test drive one, so i did, and -£1300 later i drove home in this. For the money, truly an epic little car, the revy little VVT 2.0 16v engine goes like the clappers aswell, not to mention how well it handles and drives. Great little car and just what i needed to pick me back up till i can afford something special again. What you get for the money though all standard, all electric windows, half leather alcantara interior, rain activated wipers, HID Lights with washer jets, Air Con/Climate Control, steering wheels controls, cruise control, and this one has Michellin pilot sport 3's all round, Eibach lowering springs, De-cat zorst, Clio 182 Exhaust Manifold, new struts all round and Ram Air panel filter. I GOT ALL THIS FOR 1300! Full Service History 12 months MOT - no advisories I did plugs oil filters etc week or so back not long after i got it, So yer, Great car, Great fun, put the smile back on my face the Corrado used to give me.

EJ Taylor 22 Posted April 28, 2017 Good find - a lot of car for 1300 notes ;) Dam right it is, can believe how much you get for the money, really good specimen as well, All us German car people forget how much you get for the money when you stray away from ze germans. Made some people in some very expensive cars very confused. haha Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
MZpog 10 Posted April 28, 2017 If you ever need any parts for one of these then I have a mate who specialises in breaking them. I'm not so keen on the interior, but they do drive well. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
stuarttaylor37 13 Posted April 28, 2017 French cars, all the bells, whistles and electronics fitted as standard that are expensive options on German cars. Only none of it works after a few years lol Fun car to dive though and surprisingly good on fuel if driven sensibly I found....almost impossible to do though as it feels like a go kart!

sexybourbon 0 Posted May 2, 2017 I used to have a saxo vts and my mate had a 182 , the vts was as quick as the clio !! Such fun little cars and man did we cause some havoc haha Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Jim 1 Posted May 3, 2017 I always wanted one of these things. Superb little thing :) If I hadn't bought the 5 series, one of these would have been seriously tempting. Mate of mine had a first generation 172 and the only bad thing about it was the gearing was a little short meaning it was a bit loud on the motorway!
