polo vs clio 182

Post by oliverpologti »

had a run in with a 182 tonight and on a stretch of dual carrigeway it was side by side till i got to 130 and i started going ahead by like a centimeter at a time and then backed off

my gti is totally standard at the minute

im getting it chipped by j hopefully in a couple of weeks will i be able to demolish my mate then?

and shut his mouth right up lol

Another 50+ bhp and he will be history...

but why not help me out.. get the Clio to come along aswell for some treatment.. I can make him to 195..

dont worry you will still be faster.. and you still have bags more potential for future tuning..

Oliverpologti - Clio 182 I would do for your mate at £200 - these are much more work - ecu has to come out for tuning.

Dont think he'd be too please if I detuned it though.. looooooool

Cheers J

seconded, especially the trophy versions

i test drove a 182 with cup spoiler and suspension packs and as much as i loved the car, i hated how it drove, flat as a pancake until it was 2/3 way round the revs

where the mapped polos can pull silly hard from under 3k revs and are so much more torquey too

making it a great driving car
