[Needster]

http://www.renaultsport.co.uk/roadcars/heritage/197f1team/

[fUbAr]

[Needster]

what are the N/DEC1 AND N/DEC2 options?

decals?

 

[fUbAr]

ah yeah

the decals must be split up into two packs then. Roof decals, and bumper/door decals?

 

[Needster]

door and roof decals could be deleted as an option. the bumper ones (rear and front) were on them all i think(?).

 

[Revels]

You could request that they werent put on. But they were standard fit..

 

[cat171]

Without them all the way, they look gash !

 

[Tupps]

Wonder how many of those have been binned already

 

[Needster]

Wonder how many of those have been binned already

on the clio197 forum there's a register - i've seen a couple where they've been written off. idiots.

 

[Richy59]

yay, I have one of 36 RB R27s

I bought mines second hand, and within 4 hours the engine blew Not my faul btw Good job that was all, and I didn't crash because of it

 

[Revels]

Did Renault replace it FOC? What caused it?

 

[Richy59]

Yeah they put a whole new engine in it for me, so it was all good A conrod blew out of the back of the block, massive hole where it used to be

[scott1205]

fuking hell you dont expect that from a new engine you s**t ya sell lyk

 

[daviebroon]

only 1 white one? demo?

 

[cat171]

only 1 white one? demo?

Special commemorative one for jimbo666's bro.

 

[Bazzon]

not really suprised by the low number of racing blues, i really dont think the 197 suits it at all, Nimbus FTW

 

[Richy59]

I think mines is 364, kinda an awkward number to remember, not like 300

It wasn't a new engine when I got it, it had done 6000 odd miles, but yeah it still shouldn't have blow.

 

[Needster]

only 1 white one? demo?

made especially... the fella won a competition i thinks and the car was dedicated to his dead brother (i think)

yer haven't seen mine fella... its niceeeeee :rasp:

 

[Cookie]

It's the only white one in the UK, you can get them in white in Europe

Agree'd with this. Rebecca's is a minter but i prefer them in red tbh

me and thee are over tupps. O...Vuh...Eh... Ruh!!

 

[daviebroon]

any pics of the white one? Although it does say no decals on it, so i suppose its just like a 197cup?


on a tangent, sorry... but was looking at the number of 172cups sold in the UK. Was wondering just how many there are left of them.. gotta be at least half surely?

i reckon a fair few have been wrapped. half i'd say could be optimistic haha.

 

[Bazzon]

Jimbo666's car

It does have all the decals btw

 

[daviebroon]

ah so it does have decals then? Maybe added after?

Looks lush tbh

 

[Tupps]

me and thee are over tupps. O...Vuh...Eh... Ruh!!

Shut it mouth!!! i love the RB...yours is lush but RB suits the 182 better imo

Red looks lovely in the 197 :quiet:

sssssssssssssssssssssssh.

Alan's red one is lurrrrrrrrsh like. :approve:

order of preference...
1) RB (clearly)
2) Nimbus
3) LY
4) Red
5) Albi
6) Jimbo's white
7) black

 

[Tupps]

I think i prefer the red ones as they're mint with anth wheels and lowered

LY, forgot about that bugger! LY FTW!!

 

[dajones]

LY ALL THE WAY

 

[Needster]

LY in a 182. the sex!

 

[richard1]

My old demo was #023/500

Black with Xenons

Was lovely. Since I sold it, it's had a New Engine and Drivers Rearo seat:

 

[Marky_]

LY most popular? Wtf?

 

[Needster]

i've seen a couple in LY and imo it just doesn't look right. LY in a 182 is far nicer.

[Needster]

I thankya princess x

no probs petal. it's a good example. it's got nowt on mine like haha jokes. x

 

[alanc1000]

nice find, excellent!

now I can see why I've found it so hard to get the one I want, nimbus with climate / xenons / cornering lights, there are only 22 out there (maximum)!

i am very surprised there are not more nimbuses

 

[seb]

i guess they won't do any data for the normal 197 until an updated version comes out.

i'd like to see how many cars came with nothing and in nimbus. lol poverty spec for Sebby

 

[Alan]

no probs petal. it's a good example. it's got nowt on mine like haha jokes. x

And to think it was only the other day you were asking me if it'd PC it for you
