There's one on Pistonheads, 2nd hand, 8k miles iirc and the company want a comedy £15k for it. http://www.pistonheads.co.uk/sales/356552.htm I'd imagine £3-4k off that to be honest looking at the others on there. Dan

Bit loud for my tastes, I like this one, sounds meaty on idle - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TgIaF0n4F-I&feature=related Dan

The Megane has impressive form through the corners, really level - loving the proper old skool 'built for a purpose' boost guage in the 5 hehe :D Dan

Leaving his sister and mum alone with a guy who's probably gonna be pissed off. He sounds like a real hero... Small claims court mate, f**k the c**t into the ground. Dan

http://www.pistonheads.co.uk/sales/390464.htm 197 for 9,995 on PH - sure I recognise that plate from here and it was just bugging me trying to put it to a name heh. Keen price too! Dan

S'hideous that IMHO. Dan

The Vee feels better on the more expensive stuff - so that's what it gets, and I do sod all miles anyway so it doesn't really matter heh. Dan

Glanzas are a one trick pony - easy straight line power. Nothing else going for them IMHO - they look shite, they handle shite, the interiors are shite and saying "I drive a Toyota Starlet" is even worse than "I drive a Renault Clio" :) Yea, I don't like them that much ;) Good call on...

I don't have any. Yay me :) Dan

^^ Yea, but it would be suitable for the OP if he preferred the stock seats and still wanted the trackday prowess. But since he's already said he preferred the 197 to live with it's all a bit of a moot point now hehe. As I say, personally I'd have the R27 for that little bit of exclusivity -...

+1! Dan

Booooootiful mate :) Dan

Nice little review that - good to see someone actually having reasoning and not just following the crowd heh! I'd agree with you on the seat comfort (and I'm only 24 hehe) - I have a pretty knackered back. But I'd probably still want the R27 if not just for the number plaque hehe :p Dan

My friend has just gone out and got herself one of these - I had a go tonight, bear in mind it had 101 miles on it so I didn't wanna go mental heh. Pulled well, was amazingly torquey for a 1.2 (obviously the turbo helps) - the dash and steering wheel - these are the same as the Cup yea? They...

A 197 with the Cup Packs is basically an R27 anyway without the plaque :) Dan

Niiiicely done :) Good luck with the new motor. Dan

We were testing out the foam lance yesterday... Froze in less than 5 minutes :) Dan

'kinnel that valver is mint as a minty trebor! Great work! Dan

Ah right I thought you did - what do you have in the centre then where the speedo would be if it's not the Nav? Dan

Well I came from shite Nexans to the F1s on the rear of the V6 - and the F1s are as you'd expect MASSIVELY better in the dry and wet - but I can't compare them to any other performance tyre 'cos I haven't had any heh. I might get something else next then find that actually the F1s are toss in...

Buying them online IME saves a matter of pence (unless you're fitting them yourself) - local places can get within a tenner or so and include fitting/valve/disposal etc and there is no hassle. Dan

My back is just utterley fucked as well which doesn't help heh - slumping down into the Vee, clambering over the 1 foot of door sill etc... Dan

You think that's bad? I've just been looking at the Vee and thinking I could buy a 206 GTi 180 (I always loved my 206 XSi) and bank five grand... I don't particulary need the money, I can afford to run the Vee, I was just thinking "It would be nice to have a bit more in the bank and a car...

Sorry I had to skip guys - I wasn't been rude I did PM Daz a few days before with my reasoning :) Daz - I was on my way home sunday AM as well :) Oddly I wasn't really in a standing at a meet mood though heh. Dan

I really like the 'stance' the wheels and low ness give it. I don't like the spoiler at all. The other RS trim bits are ok though :) Dan

Yea you need the sat nav to get that (presume that's the chrono pack?) which was a rather heavy coin option. Perhaps find a JCW one? When I drove my mates I have to say I was quite unimpressed - the thing that killed it for been nippy was the insanely long first gear - 45mph in 1st ffs! Just...

I have F1s on the back of the Vee and really rate them. Conversely a mate has Paradas on his 53 plate Astra GSi Turbo and reckons on them been utter toss. Of course, this might be just because it's an Astra, but I also found the F1s were cheaper heh - and I've always rated them on other cars...

Or just buy a mint Mk1 - they're better anyway hehe ;) Dan

It fit on the parcel shelf :D I bought a 1/5th scale RC car - then noted, I had no way of taking it places, so I bought a bag so it could sit on the passenger seat hehe. Dan

I don't normally like Silver ones - but I do REALLY like that :) Dan
