Don't listen to the hate, they are a brilliant car, and I miss mine (197 cup with recaros)
Absolute riot if used properly (ie not pottering round town) reasonable build, good spec etc etc
I tried a premium ish car after the Clio (mk5 R32) and hated it. Soon chopped in for a Meg 250. Never...
Yeah, but dont let that put you off.
I've had two 197's, the last one 5 years, the one before for three, and covered around 80k in total. Had a box change in the last one i owned @ around 50k. Do the checks that knuckles said, make sure it shifts cleanly above 5k, if it does, happy days :)...
Heatshield? They don't usually have any common problems on the exhaust other than the flexies, but that's usually indicated by a blow. I have heard of the odd secondary cat issue..?
Revs, they are FBW, but no different to a pahse 2 1*2 imo
fuel pump would be my punt
I had one just die whilst driving, just cut out, had to get a tow home :(
Its a reasonably common issue and will also give your symptoms.
Cheers, red wasn't my first choice, but they are hard to get with the right bits, and looks good in the flesh
With the Golf, front wings and sills mainly suffer, I also had a few zink blisters (new to me) around the car in general aswell.
Say what you like about Renault build, but they don't...
After selling my 197 cup back in July I fancied something different than French. I always liked golf mk5 r32's and after a test drive duly bought one. Mk5 tornado red. The noise is epic, but for me that's where it ended. It was a big heavy bus (to be expected) but the main issue I had is thing...
2004
Now *crap pic alert*
Had it a month, bit of a project. Got some Billstien B8's & H&R springs on the way then i'll get some nice pics :)
Lovely noise.
Interiors a bit rattley though so dont believe everything you read about VW build.
They w**k over these on 197.net, these and sprint boosters......
I've never been convinced due to the price.
New set of flexies in the standard unit is the away to go
Ah a non ac friend!
Yeah only reason I'm selling is cos I've had it 5 years this September just fancy a change tbh
I want a 250 cup ideally, however they are a bit over budget for what I want to spend on something I only drive at the weekends. Mk2 meggy other than a r26r don't really do it for...
Cheers. Yours is a nice example, nimbus is underrated IMO
It is still up for sale, but had a major wobble on Sunday though, still not 100% I want it gone really......
They really can't be beaten for driver enjoyment down a good B road IMO. Perfect blend of speed/handling with reasonable...
so just nmap bang in the address use the -sU command?
What range does it scan? I'm looking for quite high numbers, but cant see where i can filter the search?
fecking udp, pain in the hoop!
Basically got a site that was all fine on a HH3, then the router locked up/crashed about 4 months...
