I agree Clio BUT I'd rather a minter 172 the more shitter 182, just because it's a 182.
Go for the 172. The 182 may have a little extra power and possibly torque but they don't handle as well as the 172.
WTF why do people comment when they dont know what there talking about 
How does the 182 not handle aswell as a 172 please enlighten me

Nor does anyone else on here then coz I've seen several posts on the subject saying 172's handle better than 182's.

Phase 1 172 cup is quicker than the 182.
Cup was Phase 2 only Eck
Personally I'd get a Clio, I loved my Cup. You need to go and try a couple though and make your own mind up as most of the people who have commented here have probably never driven either.

I know a fair bit about 172's since my sister owns one.
I've seen ppl on here post that 172's have better suspension or sumit.
Can't say I know much about 182's though.

Rubbish its 172s that have more roll on account of the suspension geometry which in itself isnt much.
You will find that 172 cups and 182's with cup packs have different hub spacing which improves turn in....I've expeirenced this and own a 182 with the Cup suspension pack.
Also Neo Saxo feel safer than a Clio...wtf....My bros Saxo feels like a death trap compared my clio which isnt what you call refined

clio will feel 10 x safer than saxo
I stand by saying get the clio..
But if you do get a saxo, grab some gti-6 brakes and some good pads.. and you'll outbrake most things
But for the price of the 172's 182's youd be silly not to get one
