Poor build quality.
Slow.
Expensive parts, servicing.
Cheap now, so now becoming a chav chariot.
Overated.
And the most annoying thing is the great cup vs full fat debate...............................................................
Time to sell up as work mileage suggests a diesel, really going to miss this car. What do you think a 53 on a 52 plate 172 with 53000 is worth, it has full Renault service history, cambelt/ auxillary belt done, full mot and taxed till September, brand new Renault steering wheel,original alloys...
Just had my aux/cam belt done, got the car home and noticed the wheel arch linining was split took it back going to be done monday. Went home and noticed my drivers side headlight was higher than the passenger side. Then noticed the grill was all malalighned and there were screwdriver marks on...
Was so tempted to buy a 197......then I remembered Renaults track record on upgrading existing designs. How gutted are current 197 owners going to be when the 'ultimate' 197 is on the road. With the power issues ironed out this will be a great car, but it aint that yet.
Yep like it alot. Im from Belton, saw yours parked at that park opposite the Wherry. Im looking for some new wheels for mine, thinking of black as its a silver 172 ff. Want those stickers, look great on yours......and mine.
