Mines booked in for this Saturday. After reading various horror stories about Renault test pilots and given that it should only take 2 hours, Ive told them Ill be wanting a "while you wait" service...with me waiting in the showroom!

Maybe a course with http://www.carlimits.com/CarLimits (see Aitfield Training Days) might inspire a little more confidence.
They get booked...

lol, all those spokes...it must take forever!
It does!!
Ive started using an Autoglym Hydra Flexi Blade to get rid of most of the water, then give the car a wipe over with an Autoglym Synthetic Chamois - works a treat for me, and takes very little time on the Vee.
PC = proper computer!! :devilish:

No doubting that Mr. Hans Stuck is indeed a very talented individual. The top speed on the back straight is awesome, the braking before the corner at the end heroic, and the speed differential as he passes traffic amazing!
You heard it from davyboy first...
Heres a post from a Pug205 owner who took on the Scooby boyz on the day:-
Mind you I guess if you call not being able to shake of a 130bhp 15 year old 205 for a couple of laps being put in my place then yeah he sure did it...
Thats the trouble with jap...

255 bhp and...
Its definitely worth hunting around for a nearly new one. I got my black V6 255 from a Renault dealer who put it on Autotrader - 1200 miles, 3 months old, saved a packet!

Im amazed at the number of people who ask, "So did you do all the mods yourself?" and are surprised when I reply, "No, I bought it from Renault like that, complete with the engine on the back seat!"...
*LOL* I was up in Yorkshire at the weekend and everyone turned and looked at the Vee - old, young, etc. Some bloke even took a picture as I pulled out onto the main road!!
It attracts a fair few stares on the m-way too, and the usual collection of geezas who want a race ... tsk, tsk! Doesnt...
I use the Autoglym shampoo and silicon resin polish - cant fault either! Cant say Ive ever had the time/inclination to then apply the extra gloss protection!!
I used an AutoGlym Hydra Flexi blade at the weekend and it was brilliant at removing the water after washing. Used an Autoglym Aqua Dry chamois too, which I suspect is like a micro-fibre cloth and was very effective at removing water that the Flexi blade couldnt get at.
Ive always used...
