OP already owns a 182 so Im sure they know that much
I'm trying to post unbiased,
basically the zed will be more expensive on parts especially if you do a lot of track work, and in stock form about the same performance although it drives very differently. but the zed is a car worth trying and owning.
Yes very true, a big factor is that clio's are very well catered for. On CS there is alot of traders and experts. One guy has close to 50k posts really nice guy though. People are always breaking clios too which drives the cost of spares down to. Just in case anyone is thinking of a 1*2 in the future
