sorry yeah they are, I was likening them to the exhaust tips I didn't mean they were. I'm guessing the exhaust system will be responsible for the extra 3hp as with the 172/182?
I like the rear diffuser but other than that not a fan, I'm not a fan of the front end at all! looks squished and kinda retarded for lack of a better term imo, and the other changes are just taken from the options on the current 197 really, speedline wheels, chrome exhaust tips and cup spoiler.
Its all well and good having the D40 and I have a Fuji S5700 aswell for point and shoot pics but I'm looking for an ultra-slim pocket camera because there have been loads of times when I've seen something I wanna photo but haven't had a camera on me because both my camera's need to be carried in...
do, I'm doing pretty much the same lol only I'm completely broke so taking my sweet time. I want an S14a front end on mine but cant afford to buy the parts at the moment and the headlights are hard to come by, all the cars being broke have sold them already! You dont need to spend a fortune its...
I'd say for £80 go for it! you could easily break it for a fair bit more than that although like malice said it'd look ace with an S14 front end on it. I'm not a fan of the sileighty tbh
Wow guys, bet the OP feels really welcome after that...

I would defo get it checked mate, I can honestly say I've never been worried about understeer in the clio the front end has always been sharp for me and mines non cupped
f*** off thats literally 2 mins from my house now!!! I'll bet he actually gets a good offer on that there, my mate got £1500 for an R reg 1.2 clio with an off the shelf bodykit poorly fitted and a rage backbox just by putting a for sale sign in the window and parking it on the road there...
not really sure about the head unit because I've not bought a new HU since getting my alpine a couple of years ago lol. If your looking for new speakers then I would say that renault made speakers are just a gimmick to up the price, any 13cm components would fit and for a wee bit more you'll get...
I would say experience and general mentality of drivers is the big issue. I can see the OPs point in that the driver aids give drivers more confidence in bad conditions but I disagree that they take away from driver skill. It is all down to the driver to be able to understand how a car will...
Christ I wish I'd thought of doing a mystery charity auction and keeping half the moneys made for my old escort, at the current bid he's made more than 5 times his highest offer and almost 10 times the £60 he would have got when he nearly scrapped it. crafty b*stard...
^I would say it was justified given that he's suffered at the hands of uninsured drivers before. Trust me mate if you crash it wont take them long to work out that you've tried to pull a fast one by putting your mum as the main driver and you as a named driver. I hope you've got enough cash to...
so if you had a budget of £12k would you still pick the 182 or would you have bought a 197? Also, how the hell does fuel consumption come into 'BANG'?? if thats accurate then the toyota aygo has looaads of bang aswell, and would work well with a budget...
With regards to it trying to hard...
agreed, it was flashin at me when the car wasn't even bein pushed. And also, it annoys me because if I leave it on my passengers get scared if it flashes because its 'saving me from crashin' in their opinion :(
I think the closest that you'll get is a decat and custom exhaust, one of the best sounding 1.2s I've heard was f0xy's old car:

MEDIA thread, if the OP wants to try again then your welcome to but if that gets spammed with arguments again then it will be closed and every1 off topic gets infractions.
I bought mine from Arnold Sharke in warrington and tbh the bloke there was really helpfull in buying the car. Theres renault closer to home though so for warrant/servicing I'll be using Bolton Renault but so far I'm impressed with Bolton, theres a bloke in there called Phil who's an absolute...
