Yeah happy days! I havnt put the R27 through its paces yet, i havnt even properly opened her up and iv had her a month! I was up Banchory on Saturday, amazing road to play on!

Whoah! You will know all the roads then! ;) You been on the road from the Peterhead bypass and you come out beside the old Hatton bends? Its named the viking road? its amazingly twisty! All other comments, thanks ;) am very happy with the upgrade! RussZS thanks for the links, those lights...

haha! the Cruden Bay - Newburgh road is mental fun in any car! Very twisty and fast! Jasey you been on any other roads around here? Thanks for all the comments! I have a few plans for the R27 I didnt think i would ever say this but i kind of miss my Campus Sport...? The RS2000 is mental clean.

Hey thanks for all the comments! Totally love the R27, I know about the headlights and i need to change the indicator bulbs, hate the fried egg look! Also the RS2000 is clean! its just hit 100k on the clock and has just got a brand new engine put into it with over 200bhp. So it flies a little!

Finally after deciding what i wanted to get, between a brand new clio 200 an F1 edition or a LY 182 or a RB 182 (if i could find one) I finally decided to purchase a Deep Black R27. Apart from not having upgraded lights or electric mirrors its got all the extras! Here was the old car i...

Nice motor! I test drove one when they first came out as i was considering one, but being a total Renault fanboy i had to buy the R27 instead :)

The 1.2's are insurance group 2E i know that! I jumped from my 1.2 to a 197 R27 and only cost a extra £110 on insurance with still 11 months remaining on my policy! Only 20 years old too! Sorry went a bit off-topic.

Yes i did, and i hate to say it because i have a passionate hate for Vauxhalls :( But it all depends on how you drive the car i suppose.. But also i ment that the corsa has less body roll sorry. Liambo.

My experience in my old Clio was that the clio was faster in the 1st 2nd and part of 3rd but after that the Corsa wins, and also is better in the corners, unless you learn to use the bodyroll the Clio has... lol They are quick enough little cars for a small engine. Regret selling mines...

My dad seems to always tell me what stuff to use and how to get certain things off, and its always good advice! He loves detailing his cars. So i guess im kinda lucky!

The meet sounds good! So everybody so far thats interested, where about in Aberdeen or the surrounding area are yous from?

Yeah Tav, organise a run up here! i only live 30 miles away ;)

Dont laugh but im 700 quid with one claim and 2 years no claims under my mothers name in diamond (only people that would insure me with a decent quote when i was 17 for my 1.2 clio campus sport) but now im just away to buy a r27 and im only gonna be 830 quid? Not too bad i think.

Haha! Man i drive a Berlingo all day long for about 300 miles a day then jump into my 1.2 Campus sport and that thing feels like a rocket and well built and its only a shitty 1.2 :S

If im correct it is Jase's 197 with those wheels on, i saw a photo of it over at 197.net. Nice looking.

For a 1.2 16v campus sport im £700 fully comp with two years no claims and one claim... Im looking into buying a 197 and i just got quoted £800 with my two years no claims and one claim, and i was only 20 two weeks ago so am happy!! Liambo.

Nah, his job just involves alot of driving to different ports to work on different boats and differenct expo's etc.

I have a 06 campus sport with 40k on the clock... :) Not a Renault but my fathers old Honda Accord 2.2 Diesel had 89600 on the clock 17 months after buying it brand new... Kinda Crazy.

Theres one exactly the same up here in Aberdeen :S Why would you wanna do that? lol.

Im from Peterhead (30 miles north if your not sure) but im in aberdeen about 4 times a week. But saying that i havnt been out much recently... Hopefully in the next few weeks i will be! Cars look very nice though!! Liambo.

Looks good! I havn't seen the cars about in Aberdeen much recently?

Thanks, because you may have noticed the thread about cly's problems on purchasing a clio sport. But its gone back and shes just a bit confused to whats what, and i did know, but the more im thinkin into it the more im confused too... haha!

Also just wondering if someone could answer this, what differences is there between the 172 and 172 cup (visual differences). *on behalf of cly* Thanks.

Enjoy having the saxo back haha! Hope you have luck on finding another clio!

For everybody thats askin i said earlier in the thread that I got a HPI check on it, and its came up with 4 previous owners and that its a Renault Clio Sport 16v. Thats it, doesnt have any other information. Liambo.

Stating back to the alloys... it has the same alloys that the 06-onwards clio campus sport range has on but a inch bigger, and i thought that they only came with the 172's, is that correct or am i just talkin sh*t? lol. Its not black its the dark blue? can't remember the name of the colour...

Well Claires car (cly) is just a normal '182' but doesnt have the cruise control? anything else apart from the trim and the cruise control that might be a give away? We did a hpi check and nothing came out of it. Liambo

Hey claire! I was also just thinking, the inside of your clio has a pattern on the dash trimmings? I think i red over in the renaultsport forums that the 182s just have a solid coloured trimming like the campus sport for example? Would i be correct on saying this? Liambo.
