It was the exact same press writing the poor reviews on the 200T that heaped praise on the original mk3 200, so I'd say yes, they've driven it. Don't forget that a lot drove them back to back or in group tests with the Fiesta...which arguably is far more of a successor to the mk3 200. They...

I dropped in after lunch for an hour, lots of Clios on track including the rarest of the rare, a 200T! Great day for it. Mental note to self; avoid right hand side of pit straight, it's absolutely covered in fresh moist moss in the winter from the low sun not drying it out, ever.

I saw my first one in the wild today... Pounding around Goodwood as it should. Looked filthy but at home.

Weather's looking good for Saturday, not so good for Sunday. I may get a chance to drop in on Saturday to see what's running around.

Genuine question; what's the point of fitting wider wheels if it's not to improve your tyre width/contact with the road? Seems odd to go to the expense of wider wheels...but fit the same tyres that were fitted to the narrower ones!

This is all I saw - only 24k miles and the Renault quality faux leather wheel is still proper f***ed.

A 6+ running Lollipop. That would be perfect. Mmm mmm mmmmmm.

I think you might be able to add this within a certain time period from the initial sale. I'd say it's certainly worth a phone call.

Agreed! Response was unintentional if that's how it was received...I saw a capitalised "ALWAYS" and bit. :blush:

Aye. If budget tyres are so lethal why when people have even less grip available (when driving on snow for example) is there not complete carnage on the roads? Answer...because people drive to the grip and conditions available to them. Simply having lower grip levels is not the sole reason...

You ALWAYS wear a crash helmet when driving on the road? WTF OMG, you're insane if you don't. How precious is your head, you must take absolutely every single step available to protect it. Surely?

Exactly this ^^^. If something is taking a high percentage you can drill in and find out what it's doing, how long it's kept the phone awake etc. I tried doing that on my wife's 5C last night. LOL at what information I couldn't find and what I couldn't do. Just LOL.

Nope. If anything it's a little better than before for me.

First week of ownership someone commented on the ST's 'amazing' colour. Then it went quiet for 29,000 miles until a few weeks back when I got accosted in a Shell garage by a copper. Kept me stood about chatting for a good five minutes until is oppo told him to get going.

3 at a push.

Too big, too many doors, too soft, too automatic. That's the standard argument/complaint from just about anyone that's already made up their mind about the car. Such a shame. The only problem with this car I can make out is the timing, and Renault's handling, of its launch.

I've worked it out now...I wasn't swiping from the bottom left phone icon...just swiping from left to right anywhere on the screen takes you to the phone menu, from right to left anywhere brings up the camera and straight up is the home screen. So I must swipe up, swipe up, swipe up...

Amen. 125k happy miles in mine from new and what did I do? Ruined it. Grrr. Wish I'd never done a single thing to it. As it came direct from Renault it was perfect for what it was.

Define 'best'? Each model has strengths and weaknesses compared to the others, and as said above ALL of the older generations are likely to be very thin on the ground and doubtful will still exist as Renault intended.

Err, ummm, I might not have been... :blush: Happy to report here that I have not one single issue with Lollipop on my N5...

The ONLY issue I've had since updating my Nexus 5 is that whenever I unlock I'm faced with the dial screen regardless of it being either open or the last app accessed before locking. Annoying!

Given its stated, written, and widely known that the vehicle warranty is not affected by the upgrade why would they not cover any issues?

Race driving instructor passenger laps around Goodwood for me. In her hands it behaved and felt and went exactly like a Renaultsport Clio should.

2nd gen one, mmmmm, have there been any rumours?

LOL, mental.

Yep, it was troubling the TCS today at 40mph in 4th, stupid bloody thing.

247 lbsft and it's fully warrantied for 5 years and 100k miles.

Ride wise, definitely. Beyond that little seperates them other than the 'box which is a personal preference. They are going to be a steal in a couple more years time...although the limited supply may keep the prices a bit higher.

It's that low?! I always thought the 250 moniker of the 'box meant it could handle 250 lbsft. Sod running a gearbox rated at 206 on an engine putting out over 250!

Did the salesman tell you that?
