No I live round the new build by barons, the 197 is my first renault sport but there is another albi 197 local that drives around.
Yeah Pete I regularly park around asda.
they can be pricey but I get my parts from there and they aren't too bad and they serviced my car for a reasonable price so...
When 20 miles in every 50 is back roads, that tractors frequent, that's what happens
she is cleaner now and sitting pretty parked up till Xmas day now. I'll keep an eye out for you as I'm round there a fair bit.
Do you go past the Renault dealership a bit? Twice I've been there and spotted a...
Was it matt black? There's one in the area that's Matt black with lime green badges and a big exhaust. Owned by a delivery driver for a kebab place in north camp.
Parked up out front near to morrisons entrance. I spotted it at 9:15 this morning when I went to fill up with petrol.
Not seen this one about around here before and it being LY would have definitely noticed it.
Anyone on here own it?
So I've seen a few people say that they will be meeting at 5:30 at Cobham services.
Is anyone else travelling up Saturday morning to FCS from Guildford/Farnborough way?
You have to remove the alloy to pop the cap off so I doubt it's been thieved. Probably never fitted back on properly and has worked it's way lose over time?
that looks like the part. Can always ask in you local dealership, they should know but it will depend on how good the parts guy is. Some...
Yeah so it does. Looked at the second to last picture in the thread I posted and you can just see it by the side of the handbrake :)
learn something new all the time.
There should be a little plague between the front and rear windows. At the bottom of renaults 'carbon' pillar trim.
they are external.

GW 197 E18 *** parked up in the NSL part. See this all the time parked outside the same house.
black 182 parked in the village (chipstead?) have seen it driving about once but it's normally parked up. Again same road (high road) just after Starrock lane.
see you most at the weekend when I drive...
About 4:30/5:00ish
You were in the car with your partner.
I was on the roundabout waiting to exit the place and caught you both staring.
That's a nice colour 200!
Cambelt being done is majorly important. If you can find one that mentions having its water pump done at the same time, it will be a well cared for car.
common faults. Seized brake pins and drive shafts (as I recently found out on the latter)
alloys aren't the strongest.
Early gearboxes sit at...
Looks like I may not be making this after all. Cars had 1k out of me this month (service, brakes, springs, driveshaft,tyres)
It's due to have the seized driveshaft freed to get to the snapped spring the day after this.
Yeah my car can move when she wants to. Also wanted to beat the traffic home. Didn't work out well as there was a quite big crash on the M25 that meant I was say in traffic for a good 20 odd miles.
Stunning, simply stunning.
seen pictures of that 200 before and I have much love for it.
you have a lot of skills. Wish I could do 1/10th of what you can :)
