I'm really wanting a 182 at the moment. My mate is back from offshore soon and taking me out in his for a spin so I can see what I think of it.

Yeah there's a few in at my work for good money (I work for a Renault Dealer)
Auxiliry belts are supposed to be done every 36k, cunt of a job !
Generally reliable comfy and good to drive.
182s are bad for backbox rubbers going.

Spanked mine all the way to work today as I was running late and reminded me why I love it so much.
Took it for a proper thrash last Sunday at the Piston Heads run and whether my previous Astra Struggled this did rather well to keep up with the pack

I know there is a light blue 52 plate 172 cup.
Unsure of price as it hasnt been prepped yet.
www.parks.uk.com might be on the site.
