Im in shock at this revelation! style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":lol:" border="0" alt="laugh.gif" /> yeah always loved them and a little while ago the lad i brought my corsa sport off got a 172, anyway other day it lost all drive they replaced the clutch and it drives now but box whines and he wants silly money again but after seeing him flying about in that and last weekend when me and my mate test drove a pug gti 180 which he liked that much he has picked it up this afternoon style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":blink:" border="0" alt="blink.gif" /> it showed me what a real hot hatch is likeas im sure bubbles will agree the arosa/lupos are a great car (and they are) but the 172/182's are such a different breed in every respect its so much more focused its a proper hot hatch with the pace to match and they impress me in every respect which as i said in PM the lupo gti didnt style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":blush:" border="0" alt="blush.gif" /> back to the thread (sorry bubbles) whats the idea this is your daily driver and clio is the show car/weekend toy?wayne Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bubbles Posted July 24, 2007 Author Report Share Posted July 24, 2007 (edited) Wayne,Sorry it's taken a few days to reply... it's Amie's BF logged on and posting this... but avoid the Pug 180 - it's not a patch on 172 or 182. It's slower and doesn't corner! Liquid Yellow is very rare (sure Amie will be along to say exactly how many were made but it's rarer than the Trophy) and as you've noticed is very desirable and holds the price well over the other colours. Trophy's have until now held their value well but are starting to drop in price. We're probably the best people to speak to as up until last weekend we had a Trophy and LY 182. I sold my Trophy and have just bought a Mk1 172 as a interim car until i can get my hands on a new Megane R26.Both the normal 182 and Trophy are slightly different - the Trophy whilst having Recaro's loses the toys of the 182 - Xenons, Half leather, Auto lights and wipers etc.However, we've had a good share of sport Clios between us so can give you some good pointers. As i'm a bit of a photo whore and i'm missing my Trophy a little bit, here's some pictures of the cars together : border="0" class="linked-image" /> border="0" class="linked-image" /> border="0" class="linked-image" /> border="0" class="linked-image" /> border="0" class="linked-image" /> border="0" class="linked-image" /> border="0" class="linked-image" /> border="0" class="linked-image" /> border="0" class="linked-image" />And the new 172 we picked up as well : border="0" class="linked-image" /> border="0" class="linked-image" /> border="0" class="linked-image" /> border="0" class="linked-image" /> border="0" class="linked-image" /> border="0" class="linked-image" /> border="0" class="linked-image" /> border="0" class="linked-image" /> border="0" class="linked-image" />We'll probably do a thread of all our previous cars at some point soon - there's quite a few!I'm also on Cliosport - my username on there is FunkyMunky so feel free to ask away with any questions you have to either of usGareth Edited July 24, 2007 by Bubbles Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cardaft Posted July 24, 2007 Report Share Posted July 24, 2007 I like clios, expesially that shape clio, the 182.Even standard clios that shape can look very nice, and are far better than the new one imo.Look forward to seeing pictures of your previous collection style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":shades:" border="0" alt="shades.gif" /> And you new megane, like those also.
