JLyons Posted 28, May 2010 Report Posted 28, May 2010 Hi all, Just thought I'd introduce myself here since I've just bought a 182 a few days ago. Arctic Blue with 70000k's - pretty tidy car. Upgraded from an Alfa Romeo GTV - what a difference! The 182 is insanely fast in comparison and the handling is amazing! I look forward to meeting up with some Brissie folk on a drive sometime John Quote
Pez Posted 28, May 2010 Report Posted 28, May 2010 Welcome John, I have a A.B. 182 as well, great fun car. Hope to see some pics in the future. Quote
Wolf Posted 28, May 2010 Report Posted 28, May 2010 Hi John, Welcome aboard and always good to hear another Brisbanian has joined the fold. First thing's first... we're having a drive day (unless the heavens open up - in which case most would postpone) viewtopic.php?f=10&t=13754&start=275 it's on Saturday the 5th of June. Good time to come meete and greet - as well as stretching the legs of your new ride. Drivers range from pleasant cruisers to riding up your ass within cms (i'm looking at you Homer ) Looks like a drive around Mt mee area to Montvile (ish). Anyways, look around the forum and give your 2cents where you see fit. In short...Enjoy. Cheers, WOLF ps: look after you ride and servicing properly - best advice i can give. Quote
JLyons Posted 28, May 2010 Author Report Posted 28, May 2010 Thanks for the welcome guys I'll have a read up on that drive topic Wolf, but I'm certainly keen - just have to check the calendar. I've been lurking around here for a year or two before I bought mine Funny you mention the maintenance side of things - I emailed you early this morning chasing some prices haha Quote
Aussiemark72 Posted 28, May 2010 Report Posted 28, May 2010 Welcome aboard, Hope to see you next weekend on the drive, my colour is called "French Racing Blue" or FRB. 182's are the best fun you can have with your clothes on. Don't forget to add a few photo's. Quote
griffyn Posted 28, May 2010 Report Posted 28, May 2010 Welcome to our community. Hope your stay is both long and enjoyable. Quote
Marek Posted 8, June 2010 Report Posted 8, June 2010 Welcome John, by GTV I suspect you mean the 916?? TS, JTS or V6? I have to admit my love for that wedge shape!! Hope to see you on the next drive day! Quote
JLyons Posted 8, June 2010 Author Report Posted 8, June 2010 Yep, the 916. Was only the TS unfortunately but it was still pretty nice I'll probably ruffle a few feathers here by saying that it had a smoother / sweeter revving engine than the clio, but nowhere near as much power. Quote
