Did you watch 5th gear? 197 crippled it. Check it in utube

I rang earlier them tryin to get a service in my lunch break, no answer tho...they must be havin a bloody siesta! lol Bet there the type that smoke constantly while workin right over your engine, then stop for a fag break. lol:cool:

It looks like it has a dynamique gear knob as well? Wouldnt ever touch that! Wierd car!

Yeah it was good but hard to set right. I got climate in my R27 and find it a lot more adjustable than the climate in the 182. It goes up and down in 0.5 degree at a time unlike 1 degree in the 182 so its much easier to get a more comfortable temp. I wasnt that bothered if i had it or not but im...

Also the R27 comes standard with a few things you have to tick the option list for on the standard 197. Its a better package and its limited edition, and the colour is awsome. R27 is the best 1.

R27 is the best package. End of.

Yeah 16k is steep, but i think the valuation that people give it is silly. You can buy a normal 197 for that? Im not sayin it will go for that price but I just think for the limited model it is and the desirable colour, it will go for more without question.

My advice is dont ask ANYONE on here! My bet is put it up for a high price. Its a desirable car, you can only get yellow on the R27. Try your luck. I know its high but if i was to sell mine now id put it on for £16k, mines got the full options list and someone would by it. Up to you but the...

I love it mate. There is a LY R27 in clio197.net that has the spoiler. Im gettin one on mine as soon as i can afford it. Dont no why people dont like it that much? With the amount of crap and halfrauds bits people have put on there motors (including people that have commented on this thread)...

Congrats renault. Spanked the competion again :D :rasp: (Sits back in chair with smug grin):approve: 197 is the best.

^^^+1 mate. I think the LY will be the most popular colour but nimbus will be the most rare and could poss hold its value a bit better? Who knows. Def a colour people will want as time goes by i think.

I think the person who bought that LY 182 from ireland is the best. Pretty recent purchase i think, cant remember the guys name. But my R27 is the best in my eyes lol:rasp:

Mate the 197s do hit the figure and sometimes a sneaky bhp more, search the forums mate. And its a well known fact that most 172/182s DONT make the figure. You can think what you want mate, you and me at silverstone, you wouldnt stand a chance.

Oi what about mine !!:dapprove: lol:)

^^^^Mate your nimbus looks wicked. Standard dont look anything special IMO but like i said to you before dude if i didnt get LY Nimbus would of been easily my 2nd choice.:) LY and nimbus def the best ones, LY for its R27 exclusiveness and the same with nimbus coz no one seems to have it.

Mmm i dunno, think a lot of people were put off by the 1200quid charge for the paint. Think there is a lot of red and albi blue. LY is popular tho. So it will def come near the top, but am expectin itto be close.

The dashboard creak is the instrument panel mate, just put some cushioning tape around the plastic panel. That worked on mine and is 90% better.That should sort out most of it. Im the same, i hate any noises from my cabin. And the recaro issue i find gets resolved if i move the seat forward a...

This thread is so 1 sided. And that is the biggest pile of poop ive ever read lol! :cool:

Nope...197 is quickest overall. :rasp: :rasp: :rasp: :approve:

This thread is well funny! Why is everyone gettin soooo defensive about the 172? Corsa prob would win.:)

Get Liquid yellow. Its a the only 197 that has this colour so you might as well go really exclusive with the R27 and get it. It looks stunning, best colour, looks so good in the sun, you wouldnt regret it. Only colour i would get other wise is nimbus, but good luck findin 1 LOL. No one wanted...

PMSL i just see that 2:lolup:

^^^^182 isnt a ph3?

Dont take it to camden renault in wolverton mate, ive always had massive trouble with them and s**t trade in. I managed to squeez £7200 for my 54 plate 182 wid 29k on the clock last november, west sussex motors are good, they are about an hour and a half away from us.

Think you should take a hint haz!! lol Standard is better lol:o Go on son, take your bra off and let em hang!!:rasp:

Ill pull over then and let you rocket past me if i see you about lol:rasp: Still cant see the mod tho? :S

Stop bein picky! lol worse than a woman lol:o Only jokin. But to be fair if he was worried about cost he wouldnt mod it to such a crazy extent?? Just my thoughts, dont really care if he does it or not just think its pointless to waste the money on it. He said he wants a 172 so he might as...

To be honest my 182 didnt cost me much more than my old 1.4 16v. There are the more obvious things like you say but long term not much. They are not that bad, only if you treat it like s**t.

I think the point is cost tho. With what he wants to do its just silly. And no one will want to buy it come resale? 172s arnt as expensive as people think.
