Only some 197s have rear speakers. I had my whole system done in the car when I brought it and had no rear speakers. It all comes down to what it was specced with for it's stereo when it was first purchased.

You came on the junction after wisely services. Were being followed by something blue with a loud exhaust (didn't get a good look at it) I was in the courtesy car, red 63 plate Aygo, passed you just after you joined the A3.

Going through similar with mine ATM. 197 at 100k miles but mint condition as it's been babied. Worth about 3.7-4.5k at a push i was the car that caused the rear end collision (5 years no claims gone) i called my insurance company (I used a broker for my policy too) everyday as they were lax...

Crashed it last night and waiting on it to be taken for repairs today. 5 years no claims gone, 4 of those years built with this car :( not happy with myself. On the plus side I hit 2 of the nicest blokes going.

My temp gauge has always sat at 1/4 (in cold weather) moves to 1/2 when pushing on. In the hot weather lately it sits pretty steadily at half way. Been this way for 4 years and never been an issue for me. It's only an issue if you can't use full rev range once the car had warmed up, which I can...

Cable tie down the map sensor. I've been kangaroo free since doing this to mine. Also lessens the flat spot.

Took the scuttle off, cleaned the drains, shattered my windscreen. Cleaned the engine bay and the car. Replaced the bolt covers on my new alloys until I can get some shiny new bolts. Cleaned the plasti dip off my old center caps to find they were anthracite (lucky coincidence) and painted the...

Might be the same one that parks up on chipstead valley road down by the new builds from time to time. spotted it a lot myself but never got a response when I posted a spotted.

Brought in April 2010 (I think) on 25k now April 2014 it's on 90k albi blue 197

I'll attempt to come have to judge how tired I am after work. Hopefully I'll manage it and see some of you that I spot out and about.

About 4pm ish on the A3 AB 197, cup spoiler and pano sunroof which was open. i was the AB 197, cup spoiler and pano sunroof open going the opposite direction anyone on here? pretty rare seeing another 197 let alone one with the sunroof like mine

What's happening with this then?

Just drove past and saw this parked in the hotel car park. Debadged rear with cup spoiler anyone on here's? have a feeling it was a 197 as no visible exhaust trim from my viewpoint.

Nah that wasn't me. I'd have been at work around that time plus I'm one for lane discipline, I wouldn't have been cruising in lane 2 lol

Dale the SMC Renault/seat/Dacia? Think that's the one your on about. They have been superb for me. Even so far as talking to Renault about a contribution towards replacing my steering arms. Have ordered loads of parts through them and only ever got it wrong once (wiper stalk rather then...

Just spotted the V6 by the shell garage heading in he direction if the Renault dealership. 172 outside Renault dealership turned off to the right. Both just spotted (well within 15 minutes) just dropped my 197 off at the dealership and walking to the bus station lol

Let me out of the texaco garage. Had your fog lights on. Very tidy car though. Same one that parks up further down I'm guessing?

Parked up now. Mines just up the road the AB197. think I've seen you parked here before visiting the same block of flats I live in? the silver 172/182 you'd just come off the roundabout by the technology college I was heading onto roundabout about 1/130pm today. you definitely spotted the car...

I'm working earlies that weekend but can still make it. Car shall be filthy though :p

Never straight forward with these cars. At least it was just a stick!

If we end up at the Gloucester hungry horse that'll be the shortest drive ever for me. It would actually be quicker to walk it :p I do shifts as well but know a few weeks in advance. Can do most evenings barring the week I do nights so I'm pretty flexible too. Can always meet up at farnborough...

I ended up fixing my problem after I got angry with it and I was told my parts on back order from France. Now you know I'm about you'll spot me all the time :p

That would have been me going to pick up a part from Renault (they ordered the wrong bit in the end) if you noticed a lack of any indication it's because that's the part that's broken! Lol

I'll try and make it but I get like 1 weekend off a month :) Need to head somewhere where there's a bit of parking as it seems there are quite a few of us in the area.

Sounds good, at least then the cars stand more of a chance staying clean for 5 minutes.

Well mines distinctive. it has purple diamonds front and rear, purple pillars and purple rs door bullets. also has a black roof (sunroof) :p

I'm forever round the airport and tech college but I drive at weird times being a shift worker. if anyone's ever spotted a blue 197 sat outside the natwest/tanning place and Brenda's on Alexandra road that'll be mine. It spent a fair amount of time there too :) I've seen loads of sports around...

Will keep an eye out for you sparky :)
