Nice to drive - but mate of mine had had one for just 7 months and has had a blown head gasket and 2 cracked engine mounts. Suggests they ain't up to taking abuse

I like them.
I used to love the old shape ones as the new ones are a bit to common in standard from and they don't look much different from the standard ones.
Pretty rapid and nice gear.Can get a new ones for 11K aswell.

The new 182 is the same price as the 172 just 10 more hp and some different stylings. Mine in 3 years........ perhaps.
