Gday from South Australia, I’ve just purchased a Clio 182 and it’s epic even stock standard. The Adelaide hills are full of tight windy roads and this car is perfect. It’s very hard to wipe the grin away esp after torturing the Porsche that has been caught up to and simply cannot get away. I love that it looks so innocent....
Picking up my first 182 tomorrow (Thursday) and honestly can't wait after watching your videos haha! Everyone I've spoken to have said they've enjoyed driving one.
@@Q12FundMDesign 182 was so much fun! Kept it for 6 month then traded for a family friendly wagon 😂. I had won the clio for £20 though so was pure profit for me 😜
conwah3697 hello! Love this, glad you’re enjoy it, it’s what they were made for! Mileage like mine, as long as you look after it with services it’s nothing to worry about 💎
Lol laughed at all the comments. Im a boy racer too albeit a much slower considerate bottleless old fart these days but yeah mine's pretty mint had the dephaser and belts done 5,000 miles ago by Birchdown and they said engine is fine, thank God. Love your seats and wheels, just refurbed my wheels myself and they look great, did them with plasti dip and glossifier came out pretty good, complete with the new "Built Not Bought" sticker on back window, gained 2bhp more.
Nice vid , as you say for the money can't get better (provided it's got good history) I've just sold mine 😭 wanted to take it to "the ring" but had to be a grown up again and get a family car. I enjoyed every minute with mine and looking forward to your future content, thanks 😉
mr T WHAT!!! Well that’s very grown up of you. I have a little boy and holding on the 182 for with dear life. 😂 thanks, hope you continue to watch and comment, much appreciated 😀
@@jwmeale3058 it's only for a while and I've had my fair share of "baguettes" R5 GTT, Clio William, Mégane 225, I fancy a Mégane rs250 at some point maybe you could get one on the channel?
Did the same some years back, but missed so much for 6 years, now I got another one and amazing we have a Peugeot 5008 but kids over the weekend do prefer to get in the 182 instead jajaja. So it’s a fun familiar pocket rocket.
Your nice clio feels like it just revs for ever once you have floored it ! I really like the bucket seats you have installed in your clio RS. Though im not sure if you have changed the original seats into the bucket ones. I know the original seats of this clio look different. But your bucket seats keep you tight in place once you drive on a race track where you have got to be steering too hard around corners. I appreciate your videos mate !! They are cool. Could you do a video with a renault clio 2018 that comes with an automatic gear box?? It is said that clio 2018 doesn't come with a manual gear gear box. You have got shifting pedals attached to the steering wheel in the new clio. I wish you a great day ! Keep it up !
What do you think about mini Cooper s? im 19 and own a Cooper d (diesel I know 😢😢) but for my second car the insurance is really cheap and its really fun to drive
You not thought about a Mini Cooper S D ? 2.0 turbo Diesel engine from the bmw range. 167bhp shit loads of torque. A friend got one when we were around 19/20 for his second car and was half the insurance price of my Clio rs 182, and the Clio rs 197 I had at the time. The mini was mapped and ran around 240-250bhp & 360lb/ft of torque. Still surprises me to this day as it’s literally just a plug & play map then rolling road test. But still renaultsport over everything 😂
Ive had a 182 ff for 7 years and have exactly the same opinion. Was looking to maybe get a replacement recently instead of putting more money into belts and what not but could not find anything that ticked all the boxes like my 182 does for a reasonable price
GR33NM4N oh wow! And I’m glad you do! That’s the trouble I have, nothing compares for the money. But they’re getting old and old things like to break more often 😅😂
Hi mate good vid 👍 I got 182 inferno orange and had it for 8 years now, had diff bearings changed in gear box, dog bone Bush, longlife exhause, timing belt changed twice cos I didn't trust it when I bought it then pulley went so changed the whole lot again last month, horrible job BTW no one in Swansea wanted to do it I rang about 10 garages and they refused to do the work. Mine is good on oil I have never had to top it up except services, so I'm lucky. But glad you put it out there as its a good car. It is my fav and hopefully wont have to sell it. As I'm not fussed on the 197 unfortunately ☹️. Cheers for the vid 👍👍
Daniel Whalley Good evening, very nice! I need the dogbone done on mine. Oh that’s quite annoying, I had my local do it and it’s all been fine so far! I like the 197 but don’t think I’ll love it like my 182!! The leaks are a joke and it don’t know where to start 🥵
Selling my racing blue 182 cup in the next week or so 😢 will be sorely missed but bought an r26, on to the next! You’ll love the 197 mate just start adding to the gearbox jar now lol, even with that though they’re unreal, bit more grown up, bit more sophisticated in the way it handles, brilliant cars 👌🏾
sam seville love a RB, great colour! Oh nice, yeah I’m going to give it a good go for a few months and see how it is! I’ve heard that from a few people now! Excited to get in it 🤙🏻 good luck with the sale 🔥
BWR valve I don’t have a remap yet, will be getting one in the new year! The exhaust is a factor but they run rick on a cold start so that was all the gurgling, not a crackle map! And not magic 😉 cheers
£ for £ u can't beat these cars!! Ive had mine for 12 years, and will never change her, no rust better paintwork than most VW's ive owned in the past! U just need to retrim the melty steering wheel and your good to go! 😎My golf r lacks the character of these cars... even tho its fast! I think u will miss it when u swap over! 😜
@Thomas Madeley Thats sad mate, i think i will 😥 if i have to sorn mine, would be so gutted! I do ❤ my golf r, its effortless and a joy to drive comfortably compared to the hard suspension on the clio. Even tho that's what makes the clio so lary, foot flat... scrabble, scrabble, ping pong, yes i beat a lambo 😂😂😂
I normally keep cars for 6 months before getting bored, but I've had my RB 182 for 2 and a half years, and love it every time i drive it. Buy a good one and they are cracking little cars.
Don’t park it under that tree it’ll fuck the paint work!!! Your Rs systems seems to fit better than mine I’ve never managed to get them tail pipes to sit right in 10 years of trying!
Hi, first of all great videos, I really like to watch them as a second and I have one question. I have a clio 2 1.4 and it has a weird sound when accelerating maybe you know what's wrong and how to fix it? ruclips.net/video/9Dqy_xVW9kA/видео.html
I'm 53 a real old fart bought a 182 3 years ago and its noisy it's for kids and I've felt like I really should sell it. But it's just so much fun I know I'm going to struggle to find anything as fun. 117,000 and not had any real problems.Problems, Pre Cat Lambda sensor,Bonnet catch broke,small front light cracked.Front spring broke. That's it...
Slisification not an old fart! I’ll be happy as Larry if I’m still driving round in a little 182 then. Just love going out for a drive! A car sized go kart! I’ve had a few more problem with mine but its all together and good. Hiding in the garage while I sort the last bits! Don’t sell! Mines just hit 120,000 miles! 👍🏻

Looking at buying 182 or 172. Which one is the better "investment" would you say?
Definitely the 172 as it's older but tbh with the prices as they are atm I'd go for the best condition of either that your budget would allow
172 cup, 182 trophy or racing blue, liquid yellow or petrol blue 182FF.
doesn´t it sound like it's breaking-up fuel ways on top?

Can I ask what the intervals are between belt etc changes? Everyone seems to tell me something different.

I've got a 182 RB with scorpion exhaust and a decent but never had pops and bangs :/ not even when freezing cold
Samuel Bruce that’s probably a good sign of a healthy car then. I wouldn’t worry, it’s cool in some ways!

Jordan Meale cheers mate, also, meg swap on a mk3 is easier than low boost on a mk2....😬
sam seville is it? oh god, don’t but these expensive ideas in my head! 😅
Jordan Meale engine sits on the same mounts, can use either gearbox, just need to modify the meg ecu a smidge and you’re ready to go.....👀
sam seville where are you based mate?
I'm wondering do you have it remapped... I've heard those little burbles in the start of the video.. Crackle map? or just decat? or magic?
