i dont think the A/C could be causing the lack of power really, cant tell the difference...
mmmm think its a good sleeper. deffo doesnt look like it will be unleashing a beast on someone. i think most porsche drivers would overlook it. but thats the point isnt it.... :devilish:
i love all the stuff ive read about this car, wanna see some vids!!!!!
tee he he... i lowered my seat as far as it would go.... probably a 20-30mm difference to how i was driving before.... much more involving. :confused:;)
i dont get why people are saying theres no difference, it has a completely different suspension setup. they must have put some time into making and testing it so that it works well!
so its got air con, all modern cars have! renault have to live in the real world and give the public what will...
was hoping theyd take the road to stow and have a little play but turned off... :cry:

Its faster than a 182 cup, surely that is the point of the trophy, and seeing that renault have historically had success with hot hatches, 5 turbo, willy etc you cant blame them for fettling an already well recieved car!

ok ok, lol. i dont really care, dont get me wrong - im not a keyboard warrior it just strikes me that that is the way that CS is, it wasnt overly personal just my view.
i think this post is ridiculous...
fair enough you dont like overly modded cars but the girl just posted saying her car was going into the bodyshop. next thing she gets torrents of abuse, and you set about picking apart anything she says in response. (e..g. flux not paying out for this and...
surely they will have records of your conversations? ask them to review what THEY said before.
also contact the insurance ombudsman (sp?) they should be able to help. theres loads of laws about descriptions of service, contractual agreements and whatnot that you will be able to get them on...
dont need it re-gassing. you can get an aerosol from halfrauds.
you set it off and close the car with the air con running and it set to recirculate the air. come back in 10 mins and its gone through the system
alternatively you can get a spray and a tube that foes down the air vents
i always think its worse when people think they can drive, and turn their esp off... ha.
so when you overcook it into a wet roundabout understeer off the otherside into a bus stop of schoolkids and your ESP didnt save you then where would you be?
(actually where do insurance companies stand...
oh and as for handling of a 1.6 model... come on its going to be sh*t compared to a 172/182 beacuse its not a renaultsport model... its just a day to day run about so dont expect too much!
dont bothwer with a 1.4 i own one and its w**k
1.6 all the way.... i convinced a 1.4 16v would piss on my 1.4 8v by a fair amount and having driven my mates 1.6 16v focus i think that a 1.6 is the way forward. if you want cheap performance. in a clio as well which must weigh less than a focus...
get a 1.4 then youll be glad when the 75bhp overpowers the traction...
dont rag it so hard... i must admit its a hard liefe when youve got so much power im glad my engine is so sh*t
