IMO the 197 version freshens the rear up nicely providing it's positioned right (in line with the Clio badge) a few people have fitted them low and it looks naff.
As for the 200 style single badge not a fan of that on the 1*2's. There are many on here who will disagree, but it's down to personal...
If this is a renault dealership where you had the work done sue the buggers kick up a stink too many so called renault mechanics are getting away with shoddy unprofessional work and Renault UK seem to have their he's stuck in the sand or try and fob you off. The minimum you want is a new...
200 EDC doesn't come with R-Link, some say that's a blessing it comes with MediaNav, doesn't have electric folding mirrors, doesn't have Climate Control (not to be confused with Air Con which it does have), doesn't have rear tinted windows, doesn't have rear electric windows, doesn't come with...
With mis-quotes like that no wonder people think they are pricey - if you had every option ticked with the exception of the western Europe mapping for tomtom it is/was £23050 ;)
The car is fantastic but I can appreciate why people don't like it. It does take a long time to get used to the gearbox but once you've got the hang of it it's bloody great fun. Plus it has four doors which got the mrs approval for a new car. This is the third black clio in a row I've had from...
Car was advertised for £1200 and generated some interest as well as the question of why so cheap? The Mileage plus only had a month a bit tax left and about to run out on the MOT.
The new buyer after saying he'd buy it was also offered everything in the above photos plus some unseen parts...
I like them but mainly had them for summer use as when they were switched on they tended to stop your cruise control working (speed limiter worked fine) - I can only put it down to them drawing a different current rating playing havoc with the ECU after a while, reset by switching engine off :S
They wouldn't paint the centre caps when the wheels were done as they claimed they would discolour anyway with being plastic - unfortunately Halfords didn't quite have the same shade of gold.
I admit that the gold wheels are a bit marmite but I think it works on black. The engines are strong so no complaints from me the only part I've had to replace in it's time with me (before the disaster) was the alternator after I had to leave the car in Plymouth Dockyard for 7 months, when I got...
Well after 7 years 9 months from new and 164890-ish miles time came to pass to sell on........
So here are a few snaps of the cars various stages of individualism over time. No sheep content so most may be sickened to their stomachs, oh dear, what a pity, never mind :nono:
By the way it was...
Still bedding it in as it doesn't feel as tight in the corners compared to the 182 (but that was lowered and don't intend to do that again as it's a pain when doing any oil changes)The power is more on tap lower down rather than having to ring it's neck and keep the revs up, so in a straight...
Seen a total of three, one when I first got it just before christmas on M1 near Chesterfield, then two over the easter weekend at Bridlington and Whitby. Otherwise been very quiet on the spotting front.Theres a lad round Sunderland way (big generalisation of the area) with a mercury one.
A nicer place to be inside, doesn't feel as tight as the 182 because of the slightly longer wheel base but has a tighter turning circle and the power delivery is bloody fun even if left in full auto normal mode.
