Like f**king glue.

Got them fitted today. The difference between the Cup setup is considerably noticeable. However the one photo I have taken of the car with them fitted is considerably crap:

Get a phase 2 172 rear bumper fitted.

Am I right in thinking that after a few years or 30k+ mileage the shocks on the Trophy will need stripping down and refurbing? I know of a couple people who have had to get this done (although one of them did it himself.) I imagine it would be best to factor this into the cost when looking at...

Enjoy your new car!

What benefits are there having wheels with an offset of ET55 rather than the standard RenaultSport offset ET68?

If he gets it I recommend the K&N 57i kit (that's if they still make it) The only induction kit that seemed to work on a car that I've owned.

Cheers mate. I thinking of swapping my wheels, so it'll be these or the black Speedlines.

Re: iPhone Q&A DONT START ONE QUESTION IPHONE THREADS. **POST HERE** I read a couple of reviews on the Navigon system, that were posted to the App store last night. Apparently the mapping is three years old. Think I am going to wait.

What wheels are fitted to your car. They look superb!

Re: iPhone Q&A DONT START ONE QUESTION IPHONE THREADS. **POST HERE** Well it looks like I have to post this in here (although I am sure it'll get overlooked) I noticed on the Featured section of the Apps Store that they're selling MobileNavigator Navigon sat nav system for a limited time for...

I noticed on the Featured section of the Apps Store that they're selling MobileNavigator Navigon sat nav system for a limited time for 38 quid. I quite like the idea of not having to worry about leaving my exisitng sat nav in the car or carrying it around with me and the 38 quid price tag is...

Chris, have you thought about going stealth and getting the wheels done in black?

1) Who knows? They're two similarly priced Renaults I'd imagine they'll depreciate at around the same price. Although Clios are a lot more popular with car buyers. 2) Buy the Cup Pack. It's a must.

I went on that same Bedford trcakday as Lee and the Twingo gets my vote. It's an absolute hoot to drive, just lacks the power of a 197.

Re: iPhone Software 3.0 - Out 17/6 & iPhone 3GS - Out 19/6 Picked mine up. It's plugged into my mac mini, waiting for me to set it up. But it can wait I am on here. I just realised I got 6 ipods now (2 of those are phones)!?!?

Yeh

I bet you're out on the driveway already, getting to work on the car. Looks a great buy Chris. What's happening to the Hyundai?

Have you spoken to Mike at Rentech? You're not wishing you kept your 197 now, are you?

This bird i used to see, had one with the electric roof. It was like something out of Transformers - f**king cool.

and as cheap to run as a moped: Exhaust is a crock of s**te though:

I thought that too!

I see a neighbour's dog has taken a shine to it's back bumper? ;)

Yeh, why do I carry the wheel nut key in a bag of car bits and bobs (de-icer, scraper etc) in the boot of my car??? Seeing this has made me think time to leave it the key at home. It's not as if I've got a spare wheel.

Yes, we've alll buried the thrrottle etc.... Thing is we've paid or are paying to bury the throttle. Where as they're not paying. I've no doubt it'll be an interesting day out. I've had interesting days out from Renault in the past (Paris, Bedford, Brands) I just feel the 5th gear...

Why would anyone want Fifth Gear to thrash the fook out of their car for nothing? I would expect a day's pay, new tyres, fuel and a day's rental of the car. All they offer is "your car on TV" Whoopy Fooking Doo! Sounds like Fifth Gear's production expenditure budget is on the same level as...

Lovely car mate.

All in black - is tempting especially...

I went from a 182 Cup to the R27. Both great cars, but I do prefer the 197 over the 182.

That's what I think. I paid a couple of hundred under 14k for my brand new R27 back in October 2007 and that was with my May 05 plated 182 Cup traded in for £7800. Deals are to be had, but for the moment there's no amazing deals on the 200.
