Finally some picks of my 200



  Merc
Bought a new camera washed the car and just managed to get a few shots of the beast before the sun came down. Totally new at photographing cars or anything for that matter but here is my attempt. Hope you all like.

Good arrows. Be super careful with those wheels though. I mean even with brushes and things. It only takes the smallest nip or chip on that lacquered finish and corrosion will creep in within weeks. Especially being coastal.

Cheers for the advice. Will take special care especially as you don't get anyone who does wheel refurbs around here.
 
Just don't mention the price again, or you'll have half the CS gimps telling you that you should have bought an M3.

Lol. Ended up paying well less than what I originally quoted for both insurance and the car. Had to import it in myself but hey £3.5k saved ;)

Are second hand RS Clio's expensive in Gib ?

There are only three RS Clio's in gib iirc. One is about one and a half years old, mine is two months old and the third one is only a month old so the chance of finding a second hand RS around here is slim to none im afraid.

Nope :eek: had so many chances too, me and the gf have been planning to go for ages but it never happens :dapprove:

You should visit when you have the chance. A few places worth visiting and plenty of history from the World War days. You'll cover all in just a few hours lol. I can even give you a free tour ;)

Good places to eat in Malaga tho... El Tintero aka 'El Palo' is top notch!
 
That's the cheapest I've seen for a 197, can you see where it's located ?

Edit; Cadiz, not that far either.

Edit ; Ok, near Cadiz.

Can someone fill me in why it has 197 wheels and what looks like a leather dash?

Confused am I.

The 197 wheels are called Raiders iirc and have a matt like finish. These alloys are an option on the 200 and are called Beepop, although quite similar the finish is like a crome effect. The dash is soft touch plastic not like the cheap plastics you get on the cup version and the stitching is because it's a 20th Anniversary Edition. Dare I call it a 'Special Edition'.

I left out the pics of the badges with the number of the car (No. 348).

This I did not know, thanks for the lesson mate :)

Didnt know they were doing numbered special edition 200s yet.

Lovely car mate anyway!

Well tbh special edition is slapped on anything nowadays lol. I wish 'Special Editions' came with a bhp increase ;) but hey I got the black roof, pearlescent paint (over £1k option), stitched dash, spoiler and badges at no extra cost so can't complain. Not a lesson at all just clearing your doubts :approve:

Looking good. Wheels are loads nicer than the Gordini version with the blue inserts :dead:

BTW - is that Pearl White? - Don't worry, u already said. I can see the difference in those pics to GW. Some you can't.

Sun was coming down and pics don't do the pearlescent paint justice. Under the sunlight in person it looks stunning (when clean) ;)

And yes the Gordini wheels look :dead: lol

I've yet to see one in the flesh actually. Definitely a great colour though on other cars so i'd love to see one!
 
  Merc
Shame I live so far and meets are impossible unless I fancy a 26hr drive lol. I would also love to see other colours in the flesh like Alien Green, LY & Storm Grey.
