Not really, you paid the x amount for standard seats they didn't put in plus £800 for you recaros.
I needed the isofix so didn't get the recaros, but gonna buy a set from capital seating in cloth and leather for about £1500. When I sell it I'll stick the standard seats in and then sell my...
Price difference is £800 rrp, but you'd get a discount if you're good at bargaining.
Pearl White is a metallic, whereas Glacier is a flat colour. Here's a pic of mine that shows the 'pearlyness' (excuse the muck, just did 300 miles to Scotland)
tbh most colours look good on the 200, but if you want the black roof, gotta go grey or white. I went Pearl White to be slightly different, and it will have the rarity factor when I come to sell
If they are side by side then you can easily tell by the stance of the car. Beware though, I know of a dealer who's customer asked for red calipers but not the chassis and they did it
My 6 month old and all of his gear can fit in the 200. We also have a scenic for long times away so his walker and more toys etc, but most of the time I try use the Clio. His car seat (maxi cosi) just squeezes into the back too ;-)
Reserve judgement for when you see one. I thought it was awful too, but looks a whole lot better in the flesh. The wheels still look rubbish though.
Just to right a few points. On the 4x4 note, yes it's high, but that's the sport, no cup chassis there
And the price, try spec a FF with leather...
If you are going to the renaultsport monthly meet

You can have a nosy round it there:)
A friend of mine swore by them on his R27. He picked up his 200 with conti sport contact 3s on, and he realised the error of his ways.
I'd personally only use contis or michelins
I didn't stick to the 3500rpm limit, I waited till I knew it was fuly warm, about 15 mins, then took it up to about 4500-5000. The best way to run in is not to sit at the same revs, chop and change. This beds it in the best - again that's what I've been told and it seems to have worked ok for...
Have you gone past the 625 miles? I did mine in just under a week, then I tonked it to work early one morning:evil:
Mines on 3.5k and feels even better. Friends have said there's something extra at 5k too, so bring it on:D
The badge was a factory fit for cars built feb onwards. You can get it, but there's no mounting point so you have to 'botch' it on. I know a few guys who have and it still looks great though:)
I think it's only because plenty of people have tried on 197's and failed, so that's why you get this advice. Which company was it that blew 2 197 engines trying to super(or maybe turbo)charge them?
More power would cost far too much imo.
If I wanted to change my 200 for track, I'd change the wheels and tyres for lighter and stickier, strip it out and maybe contact quaiffe about a lsd, I know they do one for the 225 meg, maybe it fits or they can adapt/build one?
As mentioned, if I...
