Some of these pics are great, but a little over 'effects used' for me, they almost start to look fake :( Just a few of them like the S2k on the beach, and the bottom two Import Tuner pics. They're still miles better than anything I could do heh, I just think they might be better a bit less...

That looks great dude :)

I found the LCR a very good car, hugely fast (especially when mapped) but at the same time, it was a bit 'sterile' - almost as if there was too much grip. It wasn't boring, it was too fast for that, it was just not too exciting - if that makes sense? Very much like a Golf R32 for me I think -...

Yea, mines the older gearbox, and as I say 27/28 average mainly driven pretty hard where possible. It does 30 on a run without much hassle, one guy on Clio197.net said he got 40 but tbh I don't beleive that. I reckon a steady run 35 is the best mine would do, without really taking the piss on...

Yup, that's all absolutely fine, and I agree the Trophy is a very, very good car - but some people on here think the 182 Cup is better for example, and in Evo the 182 Cup did set a quicker lap time than the Trophy on their track. See I'd disagree with those people, as I think the Trophy is the...

Your dedication to the Trophy is admirable it must be said, but this thread was 'which would you rather own' - which I answered with reasons (which I did state were just my opinions). Obviously they all think (my friends with the cars referred to above) their cars are better than the Trophy...

I apologise :) I haven't owned a 1*2 (in the strictest sense heh) anyway, so I'm probably not as well advised to comment as a lot of the 197 owners on here who made the upgrade (;)) from a 1*2. I love driving mine though, I loved it on The 'Ring as well, and I'd recommend it to anyone who...

Part throttle? WTF? As if it matters how fast it is when you're not trying to go quickly. As for the people on the RS forum, good luck to them. This whole thread is just here to cause an argument anyway, and you know it :) There should just be a sticky at the top "182 or 197? - Make your...

197 for me, makes the Ph2 range look very dated IMO. Also, I find it much nicer to drive, it's the same performance in a straight line despite being heavier/bigger/safer/whatever and yet manages to be better in the bends in most peoples eyes - and I suppose that Evo thing against the Trophy...

I sold mine after I mentioned it was for sale on ClioV6.net, and someone PM'd me, looking for a minter. £11k in my pocket 2 weeks later - I realise I was lucky, but have you tried advertising it on there? Why are you selling as a matter of interest? Edit - This was like, 2 months ago or...

Cheap that, I paid £206 or something a couple of months back. Dan

Fabulous work!

I love Jap names for boring stuff hehe - 4s4 is now SUPER HANDLING ALL WHEEL DRIVE!!!1111!!! AAAAAAAAIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIII!!!!1111!!!! - you can just hear a commentator shouting it really fast on one of those Jap Challenge Attack car vids on YouTube hehe!

Beauty mate :)

Stop being a mentalist dude! Yours is worth more, and now people are so obsessed with petrol prices it'll be worth more in the future as a small car with an decent low tax derv engine. If you must though, and I really wouldn't, at least get him to pay you the difference in values. And don't...

Well, not toast, but I'd agree. In a straight line thrash he'll get maybe 1 or 2 car lengths on you, but in the corners you'll have a chance - but you'll have be very committed heh, and know the road like the back of your hand, as he'll have more grip I'd imagine. Mind you, all the mags and...

I wouldn't do the remap and things till it was nicely run in, like 10k sort've thing - because if it's anything like the 197, it isn't unleashing the fury till it has some nice mileage on it. But, tbh, I wouldn't do any of it anyway whilst the car was under warranty. Well, not any of it...

Yea but finding a pair of the RenaultSport seats won't be easy - I daren't even think about how much Renault would want - then there's collecting them, and having someone fit them (I can't do it), finding somewhere to put the Recaros etc etc. That would 100% be my preferred option but there...

Ah. That's miles cheaper than any of them on the trader heh! Reading that thread - the RenaultSport forum is worse than this place. Look at the twattish behaviour there with that guy and his "Top Gear price" b****cks - is he seriously trying to suggest that's 'too expensive'? What an...

I've just looked at that I think on Autotrader? Can't remember the exact details now heh, but I'm sure it was a Cup? I was offered a new Cup at a base price of very little over £12k plus options (RB is the only free colour)... Aircon £500ish, job done, and probably the best value new car...

The advert is crap heh. Standard spec includes cruise control, speed limiter, air con, switchable esp, keyless entry, RenaultSport seats (which are very, very good), Cd player, leccy mirrors and windows etc. And a very nice interior, with the RS steering wheel etc, and all the soft touch bits...

I'm sure performance blue on other STs is darker, and more metallic than that? Or is it just the photos? Ooo leather as well, nice :) Dan

Looks like a very, very nice example. Nice to see it with those rare original wheels too - weren't they only on the last of the line Evos? The E36 often gets quite bad press on various car places, but personally I think they're under-rated. Especially the Evo, aren't they endowed with extra...

Ah to have silly money hehe! That X6 does nothing for me at all, but that LP640 and pretty much all of the others have me reaching for the envy sin.

Don't know why you're always so hard on your pics, they look great to me heh! Are you still talking to me, since I'm not only not a Vee owner any more, I have a 197 in the Vee only GayBoi Yellow! Hehe ;) Although, she may be on here way... You mention that white Golf is a high spec - is...

Great pics, sounds like a great way to spend a day :) Like the pic of the RB 197 - looks very wet hehe!

I agree Turinis are bordering on obsession on this site though hah, I only chose them because they were the only 'other' type of wheel I'd seen put on the 197 before. I don't have anything against Liquid, or the R27, I'm just rather unwell and have a very bad back, and I'm starting to struggle...

I was just thinking of how cool I think the K-Tec 197 looks on its 18" Turinis - so no harm in a photoshop :) Great shop work by the way P4ers! I think it's looks sweet on the 17" Turinis tbh hehe, sorry :p Any chance of one with Superleggeras ;)? If I do change my R27 for a Nimbus 197, I...

Ah that looks loads better :D Can anyone photoshop a set of slightly bigger Turinis and Superleggeras on it? In anthracite, I reckon they might suit it to a tee :)

I've never seen a Spoon hardtop'd S2000 like that before - I'd love to see a few more angles of it, looks like it could be rather sweet :) I like the wide bodied 200sx as well - I reckon it needs a shed load of power to pull of the look, and thankfully, I'm certain it will have hehe. Those...
