what i mean as the grown up version, is that my Clio 182, was fantastic, but the 197 just feels more luxury.. more comfortable, I can state, it will never be as good as my 182....
The 182.. is my fav.. raw and fast, turned heads as it was so bloody clean all the time.. the 197 seems just to smile politely
the 182.. was "GET OUT OF MY WAY"
the manifold was bodged at the flexi,rang Renault £800.00 for a new one.. got a refurbished one with new flexis for £100.00, cant believe mu luck, just got to find somebody to fit it now...

wouldnt you say just over 90k is about right for a 2007 plate car, 12 ish for 8 years, haven't seen it yet so will see, i know there's one on ebay for 6999 which looks mint, this one is just over half that..
I've seen one locally, and wondered if any body has anything I should look at, when going to view, I've seen the car about owned by an older chap.. but was always filthy...
So any do or donts??
