    197 Faults...

    Na, no effort, just jot down tank mileage and total mileage every time, and that site works out everything else. Total average since I had the car is currently 28,9 MPG. If I was bothered that much about fuel consumption, I would NEVER have bought a 197 lol :) The sales bloke told me that...

    How many of these faults are common on a 197?

    Yes they offered the F1 stickers, I kind of think they look bare without them. And yes, the bumpstrip started to come away after about 2-3 days after I picked it up!

    How many of these faults are common on a 197?

    1. They offered them too me, and I accepted 2. It's amazing what turtle wax covers up - paint was the first thing I look at and swirls as my best two mates do detailing

    How many of these faults are common on a 197?

    Here is what they call "Respraying a panel": How did they do it? Dulux roller, tip ex and red dye, and to finish it off, sandpaper??? The rest of the paint on the car is mint though! The car is now in their hands, I am giving them the opportunity to fix the problems...

    How many of these faults are common on a 197?

    Blinded by love for the car I was! Bar the stickers, the rest of the cosmetic stuff was "covered up" with wax etc. I'm not going to mention the dealers name YET, but I did just speak to the previous owners. No front end accidents and no problems at all other than the kangarooing!

    How many of these faults are common on a 197?

    I contacted Renault UK, and they said to me: There is no reason for you to have to go into a Renault dealer and check the car head to toe. Part of being a Renault approved dealer is the fact that you should be able to just go in and get the car with the peace of mind that EVERYTHING has been...

    Probably a totally irrelavent and useless addition to your post.... It was this that happened to me. I went to a dealer with no intention of buying one, then got sucked in lol!
