Just when the Speedlines are on, my plans should be done within the next couple of days but the Speedlines are not 100% coming Saturday.
Plus the blue interior on a white or black car? hmm. Gordinis are normally racing blue, not Malta blue but they're still a blue.
Thanks for all of your help and quotes etc
il admit when i first saw the gordini release pics i really wasnt keen but my god it has grown on me, a smart subtle car but certainly something different, and good different, i like the different coloured lip at the front, i might even go as far to say i even like the strips, think it suits it well with the white mirrors, but glad your changing the one thing i would change, the wheels, will look even better black! enjoy

Any reason you're going for the black speedlines? If you're going to keep it a "Gordini" then I think white would have worked much better, with white mirrors too.

Jesus. That looks horrific.
I can't believe this is an official RS product. Looks like a dealer special.
...and that gear surround. WTF.

You what?
Looks like someone went to the bargain bin at Halfords. Probably the worst Clio i've seen, period!
How did they get it so wrong? You could have gotten a nice 197 and made it look amazing for cheaper.

Gentlemans spec 200
Colour code the mirrors and blade. Get rid of the standard wheels. Remove the stripes. At least then it looks like a normal 200 in a slightly dubious blue.
And change the leather gaitor thing on the gear stick. Horrific.

This photo highlights the styling flaws in the this car perfectly. 3 tone front, WTF! My 1996 oasis has more style than this thing.
Did you buy outright?

Most people probably could.
I'm really not fussed by the haters, it's a lovely car and a lovely drive. I'm not removing the stripes and just changing the wheels.
Not sure how someone can think the Speedlines will make it look worse. I really urge some of you Gordini haters to go and see one in the metal..
I didn't get a 197 because I wanted a 200.
I didn't get a 200 cup because the spec is fooking shocking, it doesn't even tell you the temperature haha. POVERTY. Simple.
I didn't buy a 200 and spec every option on the list because it would of cost alot of wonga.
I bought a 200 Gordini because of the massive spec (I wanted every option so I got what I want in the Gordini), very nice colour (If you haven't saw it in the metal then your opinion is invalid) and the white bits make it stand out. I've shown around 6 people who hated the Gordini but then changed their mind when they actually saw it. Also, I got this at a good price and I guarantee [Please feel free to come back and check in 3 years time] that it will be worth more than the other 200s on the market. I haven't bought this outright so it's a good move money wise compared to buying and speccing a 200.

i think they look not to bad in the flesh apart from the wheels and the interior.
however the 200 is still much nicer
and the GT nicer!!

Looks good mate. Not my cup of tea though, I'd have to change one or two things and I'd not buy a new car I had to do that to. Hope you enjoy it, I've seen one in the flesh recently and I agree with you that they look much better in the metal, odd how they don't photograph well.
I think there are a few 'slightly' envious posts on here, ignore them and enjoy your car, if we all drove the 'perfect' car formulated from other peoples opinions, we'd all drive a Focus! Thats not a good thought!
