booked in on the 9th for a meeting with the local wheel refurb bit, myself and the renault service manager...where they will explain the best way to get them re-done if poss, if not and im not happy we're talking replacements...(and i wont be telling them i got them cheap) ;)
yep, good mates with the lads at my local tyre spot so thats discounted..as were the wheels...
wheels RRP is £400ish a corner without tyres...i paid £1500 with tyres :D:D
no mate, its not R-Tecs one..that was some shed with launch control etc..on a rear wheel drive car with too much grip anyways i never understood their thinking there

also worth of note...
My local dealer benfields of carlisle has just got 2 197's in..the demo in black, and a racing blue for the showroom..
first off i have to say..pictures do this car no justice..it is a big car and made my v6 look teeny but it does look impressive in the flesh, especially in black.
So..off...
whack in on your dads name im with elephant..21 years old..£870 with piperX, k-tec and 19" wheels declared :)
