Well your intitled to your opinion mate (_KDF) but about 18 months ago my wife had a mk1 172 ( in titanium ) and i had & still have a mk1 V6 ( in iceburg ) and parked next too each other on my drive the172 looked alot brighter and that was not just my opinion but everyone who came round and saw...
Im sure he wont mind you guys giving him a bell at work, his name is Floyd Gutherie and as i said the dealers in Milton Keynes, tel. no. 01908 318211, ask for new car sales or use the automated system. Dont bother phoning tommorrow though, its his day off!! Or alternatively come to Bedford...
Titanum is alot brighter than Iceburg (its got bigger mica particals in the paint). New v6 is coming in Titanium, bring it on!!
The reason they stoped Titanium is that at one stage 172s were being built at three different factories in France and only one of them was set up to spray Titanium...
Ive just been out in a moded Cup. The guy is on the sales team at Bristol street at MK. Hes a very knowledgable bloke when it comes to Renaults (not your usual salesman b*llsh*t) and has his own Cup (not a company car). Anyway his had some serious mods, Renault sport ECU, hand built stainless...
No one fancy silver then ?? Thats what im going for. I know its down to personal taste but i dont like the silver air intakes. Plus the silver on the mk2 v6 is the same as that on the mk1 172, titanium, this is really bright, spot on in my opinion!
Wibbl, Mk2s been on order for over two years, and yes, these cars are the POODLS PRIVATES!! If i could i would keep the mk1 and have a mk2 but finances wont alow:(
Still, to have either/or is great!!
Obviously i havent test driven a mk2 but its getting great reviews, cant wait to take...
No you cant place an order yet, maybe this coming week or the following one, ask your local dealer.
No discount on a uk car but no doubt the car supermarkets will be selling parallel imports so you could always wait for one of those.
No test drive availible yet and knowing renault there wont...
Dont start the 172 / cup thing up again pleeeeeease. Last time it was nearly pistols at dawn, lots of teddies got thrown in the corner and lots of dummies got spat out.
YOUVE BEEN WARNED!!
You cant wack a good bit of p**n!!
As for MP and all those copy cat mags, let them keep printing, after all what am i going to wipe my arse with otherwise:(

Top stuff. Glad you had a result. Nice to know hes still about, need to use him again myself for the wifes scienic. Some tw*ts given it a nice little "door corner" dent right in the middle of the offside rear door. t**serS:@
Dont start the cup / 172 debate up again!! The last time this kicked-off it went on for ages and the cup boys kept spitting thier dummies out! Youve been warned:sick:
Ben, dont know who decided on the silver air vents but they need shoOting and might i ad that before any one says "you need to see it in the flesh or metal and fibre glass as the case maybe", i have and it still SUCKS!!
Me too Ben. Im getting a new V6 and people cant understand me but i want it in titanium not "that blue". Plus i want the air vents colour co-ordinated, think those silver on blue/red look naff!!
I cant believe this discussion is now over!! Really disappointed:(......
.........come on someome, carry it on, it brings a bit of colour into my dull and dismal existance.
Very nice too. You seem to have me all wrong. I love all clios, ive had five including my current V6. New vee turning up later in year, hopefully that will keep the cup from the back door. What do you reckon??
No. They are great cars. But just be aware of the lack of ABS. You just need to learn how to brake properly by pumping the pedal and there fore not locking up!
