Shoulda just got a 182 :p and yep. Gearboxes arnt the best

How much was the car? If you had in your mind fitting a turbo, you obviously arnt comfortable with the power? You could buy a decent 172/182 for that. Let alone whatever you paid for the mk3 .. Insurance wouldn't be THAT bad either considering..

Haha changing on 3k

back to the point ... think may people will buy these? .. also, I'm sure I seen a standard car in RB the other day .. sort of kill the joy of better colours on the proper versions?

spastic driver?

Mine doesn't? .. the only issue. I ever have is a flat spot on about 6 1/2k in 5th, and the old kangaroo complaint only seems to happen if you hammer it cold. which i'm not daft enough to do :P

Haha I wouldn't .. don't know what your letting yourself in for!

Fair doos, maybe bad personal experience, I test drove one before I got the 200 and wasn't impressed personally.

lol .. tell that to ford .. I work for them lot and I've not driven a ford with a turbo that actually works properly .. or doesn't have lag .. but then again i'll probably only see the ones with bother, although a kid here had a focus ST on a 58 plate and sold it after 5 weeks and bought his old...

to be honest i think the new 200T lacks majorly compared to the 200 ... ooh it has a turbo ... Turbo lag! I hear no brembos or Recaros? Also looks no different to the standard car really? Not my cup of tea .. Each to there own though

thats why I bought the 200 then proposed :) haha, I was thinking about test driving one but then I figured, I've never had a car I love as much as the 200, and I'll probably keep it for good, and buy a extra somewhere down the line. don't want to regret selling it

What weekend we going?

Was thinking not this but next Sunday? If footballs not on too early, usual 10am start? Have blast about then find food for 11:30 -12:00 ish, head down for icecream. Sorted? 1. Stu 2. James 3. 4. 5.

alright mate! welcome, Have a look in the NE areas, currently on organising a meet!

Could have a word with tws barker in Newcastle or i go to Renault Nissan clinic in Boldon, he was a master tech at Benfield for 8 years. Charged me £10 to do my RS monitor

Haha "you drive like a tool, as punishment, I shall set alight your front bumper with my fire breathing exhaust"

Alright Sam, just keep me down for weekend ones, don't fancy driving to Newcastle and back then having to drive another 20 miles to Teesside and back again. Ill be about when the meets are more central!

:D

I never had any bother with my extremely loud 197 rep.... People mustn't hear the 200 :( people are my pet hate! Especially ones that can't drive, and hold traffic up. Die please :)

​Brilliant! drop a massive hint like that and I'm sure she'll say "see you there, same time next week" ;)

Haha yep. may get one that screams MOOOOVVVEEEE!

Haha tbf I think I need a louder horn too..

Personally I don't see the point in dual carriageways being any less that 70 ... Cos autobahn. ​ Although in this country it would be pointless because 90% of the population can't drive, and would sit at 40 in the outside lane. Hence my reason for driving behind people who do this yelling...

Haha I thought that was me for a moment! but wrong location! Phew! ;)

I need someone in the NE with a 200 + RS monitor to help me set my time - basically I need to plug your head unit in, set the time and and plug mine in... So if anyone could spare me 5 mins of time I'd be greatful! Cheers, James.

Apparently so, the guy reckons the RS monitor will work too... just plug clip in and change the configuration. You'd need a digital monitor too

Just needs coding with clip mate

Had a idea... It said on the CLIP "clock" - present... I bet that's when my old one had the clock built into the screen not going through the radio?!

nothing in any of the setting fella, going to pop up to renault at some point and give them a look - think its a software thing they can fix no problem

Sounds like a daft question, but everywhere seems to state look in your handbook .. I've just fitted a bluetooth head unit and a RS monitor to my clio (it works, it fitted, its programmed) but I cant find the settings for the clock to change the time.. If anyone could help that would be...
